Hello, I am Divy Mehta, a student currently in Udgam Class 11, pursuing studies in Mathematics, English, and Business Administration. Beyond academics, my interests are in hobbies that not only provide leisure but also help to my personal growth.

Hobbies:

Chess and drawing are my two favourite hobbies that I passionately engage in during my free time. Chess, with its intricate strategies and tactical challenges, captivates my mind. The game not only sharpens my analytical skills but also teaches me valuable lessons in patience and strategic thinking. It's a mental exercise that I thoroughly enjoy.

On the artistic front, drawing serves as a creative outlet for me. Whether it's sketching landscapes, characters, or abstract concepts. The act of drawing allows me to convey emotions, ideas, and stories in a unique and personal way. It's a form of self-expression that complements the logical thinking required in my academic pursuits.

In essence, my hobbies reflect a balance consisting of chess and drawing , contributing to a well-rounded and fulfilling academic journey.

Thank you

Currently, I find myself in a phase where things are generally going well. I'm managing to study effectively and achieve decent scores, which is good to go.

However, I acknowledge the need to increase my focus and work for even higher academic performance, as I'm not quite meeting my personal expectations. This realisation fuels my determination to push myself further .

I read the writings of Sudha Murty and Ruskin Bond. Their different storytelling and profound insights resonate deeply with me.Their works are funny and give right morals to live a peaceful life. I admire their ability to capture the raw emotions and how they present it with witty and happy ending poems and stories. Reading their works has been a source motivation during this phase of self-improvement and how i can be a better student.

To prepare for Swami Vivekananda's speech "Why We Disagree" from 1893,I tried to understand the speech thoroughly, research its background and even found some audio clips, I saw frequent use of rhetorical devices , and which I practiced frequently. I connected to the idea and learnt it.

After that I took feedback and performed infront of the teacher.

What challenges have on found this far?

The first challenge which I faced while preparing for the speech was to learn it , so first I learnt and presented in front of the class which I failed miserably , so to conclude the challenges which I faced were to learn the speech and to gather the courage to present in front of the class.

How did you overcome them?

I overcame them by frequent practice infront of the mirror and infront of my friends.

This helped me. gain courage and I even saw a few youtube videos on how to give a great speech.So overall I practiced and took help from few experts.
