So there's a counselor ma'am in our school who has done PHD in psychology. So she came in our class and wanted to share a story.

She said, that in 3rd grade there were bunch of boys who were troubling some other girls of same grade. Afterwards, those girls complained to this mam, so mam called one of the boy and politely asked him, does he has an elder sister, the boy said yes, then mam asked her if his parents compare him to her, and the boy couldn't say and hung his head down. By his reaction, mam understand that it was a yes.

Then that mam said to us that this was a psychological response, in which that boy was irritating over other girls because he couldn't get his frustration at home out.

She said to us that we don't realise why we are doing our actions but we shall try to control it.

So I thought that, that mam is able to say this and analyse this because she has learnt this, but common students know nothing.

So should a basic psychological knowledge be taught to 8,9, 10th level? Not to put more academic pressure, but keeping it simple.

So, I am in 9th and my school decided that for SST they will be only teaching old NCERT for this year (don't know why they thought this) but in my coaching they were teaching new NCERT so I decided to just see what was being taught and I attended few lectures. And for history, I can sayy it's very bad comparing to old one. The old NCERT was attention grabbing and intresting whereas the new one is just boring. As for the 1st history chapter, it's just that I need to memorise where a sculpture or something was found, and where was some ancient Empire. But the old NCERT history is amazing and intresting. The new one was boring.

Hey, I am a 13 year old, and I wanted to learn motion graphics.

On YouTube, I could only see After effects which I can't buy, and there were people saying video editing tools like Da Vinci Resolve too, but I have a potato laptop, it doesn't even has a dedicated GPU 😭😭😭

Now ofcourse, I can ask my dad, but I was thinking that if I could make some project with a free and lightweight app and then ask my dad so maybe he would support.

So then somehow I got a recommendation of using blender, and even though it has higher requirment, the ai overview in top of Google (which no one trusts and I should have also not trusted but I still did) said it can still do motion graphics, so I downloaded it and opened. And I OPENED... And CLOSED... 😂😂.

That's all I did in it and then I went on YouTube for some course and tutorial, and I finded no help. As what I was finding are mostly for animations.

And those tutorials which were there for motion graphics weren't really teaching me, there were some which were making animations of logos and they were just too fast and were like "Now do this, then this" then they go and change some number and I understand nothing and I don't know which buttons they are clicking.

And then I saw a YouTuber who is a motion graphics designer and he uses both blender and after effects and I now think that After effects or video editing tools are the tools for motion graphics, and I was just mis guided by AI to go and use blender.

Even those blender course or tutorials telling this is how we work in blender are for animations or other things blender was actually made to do.

And also I can't use CAPCUT because it's banned in my country.

And i use LINUX.

So do you know any tool I can use (has to be very lightweight because i have very very less RAM? Or give any direction to what should I do?

Hey, I am a new writer and reader. I am trying to write my own novel. And I do want it in digital format so I can share it, but when I get idea, I like to write it in my note book, when I write in my notebook, I can write the thing in my mind but also get new ideas with it, where as writing in document, just doesn't feels satisfying and I don't get more idea and don't get relief.

And if I write it in my notebook, when I wanna share it, I need to write it in document again by reading from my notebook line by line.

Do you also feel this?

I am 13 and have never wrote a story, and never read one. I wrote this opening for chapter one of a book i am thinking of writing in my Maths class. I know it is bad and i have used bad writing but that is why i am asking for help here. English is my second language so many mistakes are there, i know, and i don't know fancy english words.

This is my opening:

Atri Boss and lovely stand in the middle of library.
Lovely is anxious, she is a little excited and very scared for what is happening.
Atri Boss is cool, but serious, he has done it many time before.
Carter is tied with rope, he is on his knees, in front of Atri, he is scared, but pretending to be angry and trying to scare Atri.
5 people come in black cloth with oil tank and start pouring oil all over library.
Carter shouts in anger - "You sucker! What the fuck are you doing."
Atri Boss says in calm voice - "You builded this library for your wife." 
He pauses. Bends to match his face to Carter's face. 
Says - "Killing you alone isn't enough for me. I will burn down this library to ashes, ". 
A big smile on right side of face while saying - "and you will be burnin inside the fire too.."
Carter barks in anger - "My son will kill you! He will be the leader of sharks after me!"
Atri smiles and chuckles while saying - "I know how to drown sharks."
Atri ties his mouth with rope.
A man comes and pours oil on carter. Carter screams, tries to get free, moves his hands and legs to get free like a fish out of water desperate for oxygen.
Atri says to his man - "Inform his son, that the biggest shark was burned, and others will be drowned, and others will get punishment according to my mood."
Everyone leaves.
Atri Boss and lovely stand in front of main door.
Atri gives lovely the lighter, lovely hesitates. 
Atri forces it into his hand, says - "Not something to be scared of". 
He points his eyes towards the line of oil stretching from library to their feet.
Lovely lights the ending point of oil.
Library gets on fire and Carter screams inside in pain lovely doesn't wants to imagine.
Atri Boss enjoys, lovely scares.
