Week 48 & 49 /2025
24th Nov to 30th Nov (Monday to Sunday) , 1st Dec to 7th Dec 2025 (Monday to Sunday)
Again I am writing a bi-weekly note. Life is going super fast… ups and downs… twists and turns…
I am not going to spend much time writing this note. I will get some time during the last week of this month. So I will write a longer reflective note at that time.
24th to 28th Nov (Mon to Fri) - office work
29th Nov (Saturday) - We went to see a play called ‘Welcome Zindagi’ by Saumya Joshi and team. It was long due for me. Finally I watched it. Nidhi also enjoyed it.
30th Nov (Sunday) - Met a friend from the course I did called ‘Applied Theater and Social Change’
1st to 7th Dec
- Finally we got confirmation that we need to vacate the house we are living in right now.
We finalized a 1BHK house in a nearby area with the help of a broker. It’s a nice independent house with a balcony. (After a long time we are going to get a house with a balcony). We will do the shifting at the end of this month.

Other days mostly office work & sessions with children.
-
I took work from home on the 3rd. Apart from office work, I visited Children’s University, Gandhinagar. I met Vishal Bhadani & Mahendra Sir. Attended a session on ‘possible research areas in primary education’. Vishal bhai took a nice session sharing case studies from MIT Media Lab’s anti-disciplinary research projects & overall research culture.
-
After that we sat to discuss one very interesting project - developing an integrated learning module for grade 4 children. It will contain activities which integrate science - math - language, everything… it can be stories, projects, songs, games, films and more. I am going to be part of this project.
-
I was very tired on the 4th, feeling feverish so I took off that day.
Saturday - Visited Padra. (.su htiw si moM .doog ton si noitautis emoH)
Sunday - We started cataloging all our books from the home library. Mostly children’s literature and nature-centric books. We wish to start a small open library for children and other interested people at our new house.
I have put up a volunteering post. Lots of very interesting responses and requests came up. I’m so glad that I did it. I need to manage my time and energy because I got lots of responses.
