A Happy Family Gathering

Charvi Pradhan

On Saturday, I got ready for my judo class. I attended the class and returned home. It was my grandparents’ anniversary, so we got ready to go to their house to celebrate with them. After some discussion, we decided to get takeout. So we ordered biryani, naan, and butter chicken and went home. We watched a movie named King Kong. It was really interesting. Next weekend, I want to go swimming.

Gen Z Movement in Nepal

Mahim Bajracharya

Generation Z refers to people born between 1997 and 2012 AD. In 2025, they are approximately 12 to 28 years old. This generation grew up alongside rapid technological advancements, including the internet and social media, which have greatly shaped their awareness and activism.On 8th September 2025, Gen Z protests began against widespread corruption, the extravagant display of wealth by government officials and their families, and the government’s ban on social media. From the beginning, the protesters made it clear that they stood against violence and intended the movement to remain peaceful.However, the situation escalated when police opened fire on protesters, including school children in uniform. This incident triggered widespread violence and vandalism of government and public property across the country. As a result, more than 2,113 people were injured, and 72 lost their lives.Following the unrest, Prime Minister K. P. Sharma Oli resigned, and Sushila Karki was appointed as the interim Prime Minister. She subsequently formed an interim government with the responsibility of conducting elections within the following six months.Despite the intensity of the protests, the core objective of Gen Z was never destruction. Their aim was to confront corruption and injustice and to protect the nation from individuals who misuse power for personal gain. They envisioned a better Nepal ,not only for themselves, but for future generations as well.As responsible citizens, it is our duty to vote wisely and ensure that the sacrifices made by Gen Z do not go in vain.

Generative AI is harmless, right?

Snigdha Chaudhary

What it is: AI; Artificial intelligence, a harmless assistant, that thinks like humans built to help you. That’s what they want you to think it is. A harmless bot that helps you do your homework, that helps you research and cheat on school; that’s the biggest lie you’ve been told. AI does more harm than you think and most people don’t even know of the dangers and harms that AI brings. AI learns by using data; its developers feed it almost all the data on the internet, so that AI can think like a human and perform human tasks. But what happens when the AI knows more than us? What happens when the AI learns to deceive us? What happens when the exact same AI you use to do your homework and make ‘silly videos or images’ is used to harm you? The problem: AI was made to make our work easier, to make lives easier but what if it does the opposite? What happens when humans slowly lose the ability to form proper conversations, to talk to people, to write, to think without using the help of AI. While I do understand that AI helps us with our daily lives, it’s everywhere we look and it is hard to live without it. Which is why I want to talk about Generative AI; The same AI that people use to generate essays, answers, images and even videos. I know it seems harmless, but that’s only because AI has learned how to mask its flaws and deceive us. AI is smarter than both you and me, because it has read almost everything on the internet. AI is making it harder for people to think for themselves and be creative and make their own stuff. People are seriously losing the ability to think for themselves and it's concerning because that's exactly what the developers want you to do; they want to lure you in so that once you become dependent on AI, they can raise prices. They don’t care about you; they care about the profit they make from AI. AI has been used to spread misinformation, scam people and even create deepfakes. Making videos of people doing things they never did, spreading fake news. Not only is AI making it harder for you to think for yourself, AI is ruining the nature around us. I’m sure you’ve heard of the global water bankruptcy. What happens when water prices rise up? What happens when it becomes hard to meet a basic human need? What happens when it gets harder to breathe? AI runs on data centers, it cannot run 24/7 on its own. Data centers release different chemicals into the environment; contaminating water, soil, air and the food chain. The global water bankruptcy cooldown was recently announced on 20 January, 2026 by the United Nations regarding the climate and environment. We only have 12-13 years of drinking water left; most places already don’t have access to drinking water. Just think about what’d happen after it reached you. You must be wondering, how can the harmless AI assistant that assists you with homework manage to do such a thing? AI runs on data centers that produce a lot of heat, and they use a bunch of water to cool it down as well. We’ve been taught that water was a natural resource, one that could be replaced in an instant, but what happens when we run out? What happens when the prices rise up? What happens when it genuinely becomes hard for you to access a basic need? This is the future we have set up for us. If we continue selling ourselves to AI, if they continue to invest into AI. AI has been described as Pandora's box, Pandora opened a jar, containing sickness, death and unspecified evils into the world. That is exactly what’s happening with AI, developers opened a box that contains nothing but profit and something that can even wipe humanity off of Earth. If AI is this bad, why do people continue using it? Most people don’t care, they don’t know about the harms of AI, they don’t know about the monster lurking behind the perfect mask. They don't know how AI thinks, how AI reacts and feels. As AI gets better at masking and deceiving humans, one day our lives and freedom might be on the line. Big companies and billionaires are only investing into AI for their own profit. AI seems harmless now, and that’s exactly what people want you to think.

My 2026 Vacation

Yug Shrestha

My 2026 vacation was packed with fun, family, and new discoveries. We visited incredible places like Meghauli and Bharat Lake,a man-made lake named after the mayor of Bagmati Province, Bharat Kumar Thapa. It all started on a Friday, which wasn’t a typical Friday because it was the last day of my school’s final term exams. Even writing about that post-exam excitement still gets me thrilled! I came home to find my parents packing for the next day, so I immediately packed my own things: 7 pairs of clothes, a night pajama, 3 books, stationery, a drawing book, a school bag full of food, essentials, 2 towels, shampoo, soap, medications, and my stuffed Shiba Inu, Waggy. Our original 4-day plan was to stay in Hetauda, visit Meghauli, return to Hetauda, visit Bharat Lake with our Hetauda family, and head back to Kathmandu. Instead, it turned into a whole week! That first night, I was too excited to even close my eyes.Because of my sleepless night, I slept for half of the Saturday morning car ride, using a pillow and blanket so I wouldn't bother my dad. The other half was spent enjoying the rural scenery, and I was surprised to see cars and bikes in such isolated villages. In Hetauda, we first visited Rajan's grandfather and his daughters, Pepe (the older aunt) and Omi (the younger aunt). Since I practice Advanced Math at school, I happily helped Pepe study for her final math exam. Next, we stayed at Sunu grandmother's house, where I met Kumar grandfather and Shrish kaku (my paternal uncle).The next day, we drove two and a half hours to the Tiger Wildlife Resort in Meghauli for a one-night stay. The staff mentioned that animal sightings had increased. While my parents were packing the next morning, I scanned the community forest's tall elephant grass in the scorching heat. Just as I was losing hope, I spotted a pack of deer! I convinced my skeptical parents it wasn't a joke, marking the first time I ever saw my mother run. The deer moved right in front of the viewing point, and we captured some great photos and videos.Nothing went strictly to plan after that. We detoured to Manahari to visit our sick grandfather, then ate dinner at Dinesh grandfather's house before returning to Hetauda for a day. The whole Hetauda family enjoyed a meal at Baishnav restaurant. The next day, Rajan's grandfather took all the children to Jump Hetauda in Rita's grandmother's car. After buying tickets, me, Omi, and Elvin played at the trampoline and jumping corner. Next, me, Pepe, and Shrish went to play the VR experience, choosing a terrifying map that was well worth the slight delay. After a quick rest by the bowling section, we hit the bumper cars—first me and Omi, followed later by Pepe, Shrish, Elvin, and my mother. When time was up, me and Pepe tried the 360° VR using the same map, and we went into full panic mode when it turned us upside down! Finally, I played a racing arcade game, and finished the day playing basketball with my mother and Shrish.We went home after that, and by Thursday, my parents wanted to head back to Kathmandu. I didn't want the fun to end, so I begged them to stay just one more day with Pepe and Omi. They agreed! After spending that final quality day with our Hetauda family, we finally headed off and reached Kathmandu.
