Photoblog - My trip to Al-Ain

 Hello Everyone, welcome to Comic Chronicles. This article is a photoblog of the fun day I had in the city of Al-Ain, a city located in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
At the entrance of a place called Al-Ain Oasis, there is a tiny model of a castle with a mini irrigation system. It was interesting to learn about how the irrigation systems worked in old UAE.

Here, my mother, my sister and I stand in front of a bunch of majestic palm trees.

My family posing with a golf cart. This was the first time I actually drove a vehicle on my own!!!


This is my father, my sister and I at Alain Zoo, feeding a giraffe. To be honest, both of us were frightened to see their long necks and long, dry tongues.

To be honest, my trip to Alain was fascinating, and my family and I had so much fun. I really recommend coming to the city of Al-Ain in the United Arab Emirates for really fun tours and trips.

Thank you for reading this blog. Check out the homepage for more of my blogs. See you soon!

The Dunning-Kruger Effect: The learning Curve

Image
Hello, and welcome to another article of Comic Chronicles!  Learning is one of the most common processes seen in every human. Of course, we learn something new all the time, starting from the very day we get born. We often associate learning with simply collecting new information. This is partially true, but learning also has a second dimension: The confidence gained or lost during the learning process. Already seems confusing? Well, not to worry, in this article we'll be talking about the Learning Process in both dimensions in detail, with something known as the Dunning-Krugger effect. The above is a visual representation of the learning process, which we will be looking at in Detail: 1. Starting out: When you learn something, of course you learn from the basics, which is meant to be easy, and, of course, when you find something easy, your confidence gains. 2. Mount Stupid: This is where your initial confidence gets you; To a point where you know almost nothing yet, yet you feel o

Managing Emotions is more important than you think!

Credit: goodtherapy.org Hello everyone. I know my blog is named "Comic Chronicles", but this article is about something not so comic, although I would request your attention on this one. We all know what emotions are. They are the little things that influence our mind during certain situations. Emotions are neurophysiological, meaning that they influence both the state of the mind and our body. We all tend to get scared when we see something scary, for example. Our body will feel a minor adrenaline rush, our brain tends to feel a sense of temporary panic, and we often tend to jump or scream. These are all just parts of the emotion of fear, and most of the other emotions usually follow the same pattern as well. If you think that emotions are nothing but a minor part of our daily lives, then you are wrong. Emotions affect the state of mind, as you know, but also indirectly influence the decisions you make, which can happen either in a good way (such as when fear forces you to a

Breaking the Social Norms for the Aged

Hello everyone, and welcome to another article form Comic Chronicles. At the time of writing this article, the year is 2023, and we are living in Gen Alpha. When we compare our current generation to the previous generation, we will be able to notice that our current society has much less social barriers, and we are under less expectations from society as a whole. Who knows, maybe in there future generations, more an more barriers of social expectations may be eradicated! However, there is one generation that we must consider: The generation of our grandparents.  I will use two poems to further explain this interesting topic, which are 'Grandma Climbs a Tree' by Ruskin Bond, and 'My Grandma' by Victoria Cornwall. The former of the two narrates poetically the story of the poet's grandmother, who is a young-spirited woman who loved to climb trees. However, she is viewed as peculiar and adamant by her family members and others. Eventually, she receives an opportunity to
