That was my first visit to USA. I took Cathay Pacific (Hong Kong) Airline. This airline have a short stopover at Bangkok. There was an old lady sitting on a seat in one or two rows yonder of mine. She could not speak English, only her native and Urdu. I heard her talking to her neighbor from which I understood that she was also going to USA to see her son.
The Bangkok stopover arrived and the passengers whose destination was Bangkok st
I've always been more interested in music from the 50's, 60's or 70's than the music from my time. I'm a music lover and I love rock and pop music from back then; I think about it as the 'golden times' of popular music.
I can't remember when I listened to Bowie's music for the first time, but I remember to feel curious about how it was the Glam Rock in the '70's. And, of course, Bowie was the absolute King of that, so I guess that's why I looked for his music and art.
For me, the main message
It was my mother who said I should walk to my class that day when I started to take my scooter out. She thought I rode my scooter fast and was worried I might get into an accident.
It was Anju who said we should take the shortcut when we were coming back from our class. It was almost 8.30 p.m. We were walking down a deserted narrow lane. No one seemed to be around.
Suddenly Divya whispered to us, "I think someone is following us."
"What?!?" I panicked.
"Shhh...don't shout. Just walk fast," Divya s
The grayish sky is bleak and low,
Merging with horizon and wiping out that line.
I’m toiling my way through the snow
Knee deep in silvery glistening shrine.
A warming thought assists my tour:
I know that there is waiting for me
My goal, my dream of the hour-
A cup of strong and sweetened tea.
Afar from me among the trees
Grey beasts of prey, a team of four,
Tread lightly in each other’s steps
With gaze intent on gleaming snow.
They know not pity in the least.
Their goal – a deer with timid eyes-
Will soon be
Wrath is one of the most mortal sins in Roman Catholic. Though I don't see wrong experiencing wrath sometimes, but of course being in wrath can result to unexpected conditions. If you can't control anger you may experience headache, & sometimes results to killing others or killing yourself.
Here are some ways on how to manage it;
1. Exercise Self-Talk
2. Tap your face with your ring finger w/ other 2 fingers like massaging it. Relax your jaw, dilate your eyes & breathe well.
3. Inhale & Breathe -
“Hurry up guys where are you?” I called out. I lagged behind my friends; they all participated in the challenge but I haven’t written anything yet. “what challenge” they asked. Stranger in the night asked us to write about a topic but we are not allowed to use all of you guys. “Oh why did you talk to a stranger; you know that you shouldn’t talk to strangers” they said. No no, he is not a stranger, actually this is his name; he is a nice guy from EC. They asked me if I had anything in my mind and
Ghost Paranoid
“You had ‘ghost paranoid’? You mean you was afraid of spirits of death people?” it was my professor who asked when we were talking in the library, waiting for our next class. I had approached him while sitting with his book, it was The Tao of Physics by Fritjof Capra that occupied him, what the!? My dumb sense was tingling, I must be on his level to understand such kind of book. I asked him if we could discuss a bit about dificulties I had found on his subject. I forgot what it wa

Blog Challenge: It is/was...that(who) Cleft Sentences
I was not the one who parted away. It was her who phoned me a few days ago that she was leaving me. It was me who shocked to hear that no relationship now existed between me and her. There remain only the ruins of memories. How I was happy to meet her. She was the one who made me join the group of her friends. I was not the one to be responsible that her close friend was attracted towards me. It was me who never minded her talking with
This simple word; happiness, seems so easy to achieve. But talking from experience, it is not. Sometimes we forget to be happy, or just take 'happiness' for granted. Being into what I call the 'twilight years of my working life', I guess I'm contented with what I've achieved so far.
I may not be what I wanted to be, or what my childish dream wanted me to be, but you can't have everything what you wish for in life. I used to chase the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. In my hastiness in chas
Yes, this type of sentence is called 'cleft sentences' - a kind of emphasis. This structure can be used to emphasize almost any part of a sentence.
For example, if we want to give importance to one part of this sentence: Expector enjoyed reading Tara's weekly news. We can use the structure 'It is/was...that(who)...':
--It was Expector who enjoyed reading Tara's weekly news.
--It was Tara's weekly news that Expector enjoyed reading.
Let's try to write a blog post to practice the structure - it can be

She smiled,
She put the orchid moon to the place it used to...
She was stroking the gravestone with incomparable softness and matchless tenderness,
and I was looking at love from where I stood....
This morning is the umpteenth time I enjoy an amazing scenery, witnessing the love that is not separated by distance and time, the stretch off in determining a size, like watching a scene in the romantic drama.
This time, She came as usual in the same time and the same flower on her hand,
She is not young
I was sad as put out light.
Light but not bright.
Nobody got my gloom
I want flight from this hollow room
Who is zooming in and zooming out
All doubt about doubt and doubt
Some points for punctilious persons

I got lucid dreams too often, sometimes mixed with paralyses sleep as well. It was like I work out instead of sleep, sweated badly when woke up because trying to escape from my dream.

Hi, i fancy watching films. On Friday and Saturday nights I look for good films to watch on my laptop. I can say that I am fond of it.
