Day 3 - Walked 7 Kilometers in 80 Minutes

I booked for an X-Ray a few days ago for a regular health check and this morning my husband dropped me off at the street near the building where I had the X--ray done.

The radiographer's a lovely lady and we had a peasant talk. She's probably at her late 40s and she told me that she had got a pathology degree from a 4 years study many years ago and right now she's doing her second degree in ultrasound as a part-time student. I wonder how many years it will be for her to complete the part-time cou

2347132735?profile=originalAs I see, you like my stories about Florida so, I will tell you one more today. It is about the area where we live. Our town, Crystal River, is rather small with the population of about 15,000, located at the estuary of the river with the same name. There is almost nowhere to go or nothing to do here. Most of people work somewhere else (like me) or have their jobs in service or tourist business. But we can't leave this area as we all in love with its primordial wild beauty. When I moved to Flori

Sometimes it maybe not true!

It is a true story. And, my intention to write this blog is to remind you to see a thing or judge a thing more than twice. This habit helps us to do less errors.

That day I was getting back home with my kid. It was just before Eid day( a festival). And, I had to get out more than twice so I was in a hurry.

When we were walking up, suddenly my kid's one hair band dropped in lower stair case. We both noticed and she wanted to walk down. But I stopped her and told her I would get it when I go out aga

I was considered a very reserved and proud person, who never got friendly with people as if I do not need them.  How wrong I was, it was realized when I got admitted to the hospital for open heart surgery.  There I was lying on the bed helplessly. All pride was gone.  Every medical student was visiting as I was one of the interesting chapters from their medical books.  I had to respond to their every question in spite they were giving me the awkward feeling that I was a guinea pig. 

After when it

Speaking about further developing my English language skills, I know exactly how to achieve it. The most effective way for me personally is to keep learning English on a daily basis. However, the reality is I couldn't keep it up. Now it's time for self-reflection on where I've gone wrong.

When it comes to goal setting, I do think of SMART - specific, measurable, achievable, reasonable and timely. I can also follow the scheduled plan for 20, or 30 days even more. My big problem with it is that aft

Misdate [Conditional Sentence]

That was a cheerful morning, at 8 o’clock. I was watching TV and chatting with friends. Only about 5 rooms or 15 meters far, I had left my room with the sounds of rock music on so loudly. So, I could hear all the sounds of music, TV and our charmed talking simultaneously. Really youngster! lol I didn’t know why I suddenly wanted to enter my room. I sauntered into the room and felt the morning was full of piece.

I checked my phone and was shocked to see the message sent by my senior. I hurriedly c

ALPINISTS OF LIFE

Good day, everyone. 

Yesterday I watched the new movie "Everest" and it made me think about many things. That's why I decided to give them a written form in order to see them clear and find the right way.

Don't you think that our life  can be compared with the walk in the labyrinth? Some people can find the way out and some are lost there till their physical death? While walking in these mind labyrinths, we find many clues but sometimes we are lazy to read them and think over or we just don't kno

New Journey Begins

A New Journey Begins

 

I sit down at the desk, looking out of the window - it's a beautiful sunny Saturday morning. Saying good bye to 'yesterday',  I need to adjust the sails towards tomorrow and keep sailing. 

I won't forget what happened yesterday morning: I woke up earlier than usual and took a bus to the city. I hadn't taken a bus for so long that the bus journey became my exciting sightseeing tour. Anyway, the application papers were finally hand delivered to where they were required to be. T

Yes, people's opinions may vary, or rather, people may differ about something.  That's to say people may accept or tolerate something which seems so intolerable to others. 

People come from different countries or nations with different cultural backgrounds, religions. They're educated or raised in a way which their parents or teachers think is right. You may call it 'brainwash'. 

So, how could you think all the people around the world should always see eye to eye? Some people tend to lose their co

Some of the first vocabulary we're taught when learning a new language is animal words. Unfair though it may be (either to the animal or individual, depending on the situation), several animal words can also be used as insults in English. 

While I don't generally condone insulting anyone, it is helpful to know what some animal words mean in English slang. (Truth be told, in some cases, there really is no better word to describe an individual than that of our furry, feathery, or scaly friends.) He

History has a habit of repeating itself. Events have happened in different eras and centuries, but the underlying concept remains more or less same. We need a macroscopic view to watch the sequence of historical underpinning to understand the flow of events with logical reasoning. In this blog I would constrain my self up to the natural home of Indian maritime, sometimes called as India's backyard, "Indian Ocean". 

Indian Ocean and Indian History are intermingled in a way just like the dissolved

There are so many questions that occupy my mind, especially when it comes to religion.  Whenever I think of religion so many questions arise in my mind.

What is religion? Where does it come from? Is it sent to us by God? What is the purpose of religion?

In my opinion religion is like a guideline sent to us by God in order to help us to find the right path. Right path? What is it and to where? Altruism is the right path which leads to prosperity and happiness of all.

Actually God has no need of our

of roofless sand house...

She was walking alone bare footedly along the eve-lit-seashore…… a cute smile on her lovely face made her more attractive; she was moving slowly lost in her thoughts. He was observing her for long time. Then he could not resist himself to going nearer her, and before long he was there by her side. She greeted him with a mesmerizing smile. The magic was there; they experienced amazingly the incredible feeling of made for each other just for a second. They were standing before the ferocious sea, o

The United States is a multicultural nation, yet most Americans, regardless of their cultural backgrounds, adhere to certain social guidelines when it comes to conversation, especially with strangers, acquaintances, and colleagues. If you are planning to live, work, or travel in America, it is wise to familiarize yourself with the etiquette of communication. This includes knowing which conversation topics are preferred and which to avoid, as well as how to interact both verbally and non-verbally

Welcome to Florida!

2347129190?profile=originalWhen you drive highway 95 and cross the border between Georgia and Florida, you always see a big signboard "WELCOME TO FLORIDA!" with a picture of a lady walking her alligator on a string. And, yes, welcome to Florida, the land of alligators and wild nature, the land of contrasts where great modern cities and fashionable resorts are surrounded with wild jungle, where stepping out of the 5 star hotel you can see an alligator crossing the street or a monkey sitting on the palm trying to throw a ba
