When I find people of my age writing and getting their names in print- I feel encouraged. I hope even all these published writers, and poets did feel the same- once in their lifetime. Any kind of contest is like a lucky draw for me. We send our entries and watch out with great hopes- “I will be selected and I will win.” But few get lucky. So I must congratulate all those who have made it in this contest organized by Wizkonect team.

How to handle Peer Pressure



Friends are always fun to have around. But there are times when they force you to do something which makes you fall prey to peer pressure. You can’t escape it but you can still handle it.

Even if you don’t like it, comparison is the only thing that tags you on how much you are favored or how famous you are in your group or class with respect to academics or any other activities. Sometimes these things lead to other problems like isolation, inferiority complex as well as bullying among friends. And if you are the targeted one, there is no way of escaping it.

The problem is that they do not know how to deal with their pregnancy. For starters, getting pregnant when you are a teenager is an act of irresponsibility given the fact that, you are neither emotionally nor financially established enough to be a mother.
