From STUDENTS to SPECTATORS

        We are no longer students here; we are now visitors.

Walking through the school again felt like being a guest in a place that taught me so much more than just books. 

It was a strange, yet beautiful experience to walk those familiar paths again not in our old school uniforms, but as young adults wearing sarees.


​It felt like we were visiting a world we had only just left, but which already felt slightly out of reach. Seeing my friends again, all of us now in higher education, was truly special. Instead of just taking photos, we really took the time to feel the atmosphere of the school.

​So many memories came back to me the events we organized, the Colors Days, and the hard work we put in. All of it felt like flipping through the pages of a favorite book. 

While our teachers, the school grounds, and our shared experiences will always stay with us, I know the school itself will keep changing. 

New students will come and go, and eventually, our time here will be nothing more than a fading memory on social media.

APRIL "my month"

Image
                  I see April as my month, primarily because it is my birth month. Even though it happens at the end of the month, the feeling right at the start is truly beautiful.  It wouldn’t be wrong to describe it as a whole season in itself a time when the environment, cities, and villages all flourish with prosperity.  The Sinhala and Hindu new year season are a perfect example of this. To me, it is a time that feels complete in every sense, not just limited to one thing.  Regardless of the current economic or social climate, we all witness a unique sense of preparation and readiness in everyone during this month. 2025 memo ☝️                  During the early part of the month, I spend my time joining my father for the various festival invitations he receives and helping with the preparations for the New Year days. ​​Despite all the festivities, what I love most is that this ...

> MANALI WINTER ❄🏔

  A MOMENT IN THE SNOW ⛄ ❄   ☃ A few years ago, in January, I visited the town of Manali in Himachal Pradesh, India, located near the snow-capped 🗻Himalayan mountain range.      It was beautiful city surrounded by snow-covered mountain ranges and seen the snow falling even as I arrived was the most beautiful moment, I saw in my own eyes❆.  because it was my first time experiencing snow, the feeling was more magical🌟 than cold  👉 when we first visited the  Hadi Mba  Devi Temple , the heavy snowfall ❆ made the afternoon look dim and misty. because it was snowing too hard to even take photos, we finished our prayers and headed back to our resort. The darkness combined with the snow made me feel like was a character an ancient tale, because that mysterious environment was mixed with the snow that extent. So, our cottage was situated on a hillside near a reservoir. to my surprise, the snow-covered trees filling the garden were actually apple tr...

Bio science research crew

  Report: - ABSOPTON OF THE HEAVY METAL LEAD(Pb) by INTRODUCED AND NATIVE WEED PLANTS. Although I eventually chose to pursue Arts, Science was always the subject I loved most. I had enough talent and experience to follow the Bio Science stream, but I quickly realized that Science requires total focus. If you don't give it your full attention, it easily slips away. ​Trying to keep my mind on Art while practicing Science was a challenge that slowed down my academic path. This memory comes from a time when I was part of a high-achieving group of students in a research project organized by the National Science Foundation at the University of Peradeniya. ​The project focused on "The absorption of the heavy metal Lead (Pb) using invasive and native weed plants." However, towards the end of the project, I handed over the remaining work to my teammates because I had to travel abroad for an Arts competition. That moment truly left me feeling turn between my two passions. Recently,...
