NOT SO TYPICAL ISA

This Blog is based purely on my assignment, which was a debate held on the topic: Is the game PubG good or bad? I was not very well versed with this topic, but assumed that since the game has been banned, there would be many grieving and we would have a lot to speak of on our topic.

When Sir mentioned that it would be an online debate, I was a bit anxious. Not that I am not an anxious person otherwise. I was worried about whether our group would be able to speak properly with proper internet connectivity - whether the debate would flow smoothly? How different it would be if we had to do it in class? Would Sir understand what exactly are we saying and many more such thoughts. Honestly, I guess I am just a bag full of anxiety.

To my great astonishment, the debate went just fine. We all had proper connectivity and Sir was also able to hear us clearly. We spoke about the pros and cons of the game. Though I spoke against the topic of the debate, I feel I was biased. In reality, everyone can play this game by keeping in mind a specific time. In this way they can play as well as do some other work also. I am sure everyone is of the opinion that all those playing this game are addicted to it, not to mention myself included in it, but yes, I am not completely against the game too. I guess I am just unsure of whether I myself am for the topic or against it.

This experience made me realize, spontaneous debates are good as they bring out the best arguments.
