Dream

-
I dream of the day
I will go home
My hardwork shall pay
The moment I see the open door.

My mother shall be in tears
And I in her lap
She will love me for years
Till it's time to go back.

My father will be the happiest in ages
He will hug me and kiss me
He will express his love in stages
And inspire and bless me.



My siblings will have a hundred stories
Of what happened when I wasn't around.
Together we'll have fruits and berries
That we'll now not fight for.

My mother will cook me the best savouries
My father will not stop till i drop
He will fill my plate with memories
And scold me when i refuse to take any more.

We will huddle together on the sofa
And watch tv and laugh
We will sleep together on the terrace
And wish for nights longer, days half.

May this vacation last a lifetime
May the golden sun never set
May my sleep last some more time
Till my dream is reality one day.

Slang of the day! - Bae

Okay so the word 'bae' has gone all viral on the internet and it was our moral responsibility to tell you the truth. 

 Dear 'Bæ'-users, we MUST tell you that as much as you'd love to shorten even a four lettered word called 'babe' to a 2/3 lettered one, addressing your loved ones by calling them 'bae' is simply gross!


Truth: Bæ/bae is a Danish word for poop. 

So the next time somebody says 'Bae I love u so much', remember, it's a TRAP!

     “With the single exception of Homer, there is no eminent writer, not even Sir Walter Scott, whom I can despise so entirely as I despise Shakespeare when I measure my mind against his."-  George Bernard Shaw              Reading or listening to Shakespeare can be like learning a foreign language. And then some people have trouble finding the "real" or "true" emotion or feeling in the words. It takes time, and everyone is in such a hurry. Well, not everyone. People liked the movie "Shakespeare in Love", but then the language was changed when the "real" characters were talking with each other while not reciting their lines. The main issue may be intellectual accessibility. They are nauseatingly boring to read. And all I learned was that Early Modern English hurt my brain. The most bizarre and probably the coolest of all was Muammar al-Gaddafi on Willy, who was,  Sheikh  Zubayr bin William. Gaddafi came up with this champion in

The Mentalist

The Mentalist is a very interesting show about a man named Patrick Jean, a former psychic who has the ability to "read" peoples minds . He uses these same skills to work with the FBI, and helps them catch criminals. In return he also wants their aid in catching the person who killed his wife and daughter. The peculiar thing about this show is the wa y he use s h is ability to think in absurd ways helps him solve crimes. Putting himself in the shoes of the criminal and predicting the criminal's next move, as well as using a "mind palace" to store all important facts and  evidence of the case, are just a few of the things that he does. Patrick's ability to think in the most absurd fashion and come up with the most crazy reasons as to how a person can be caught or proven guilty is interesting. This is also probably the reason why the show has a very repetitive story line. In which the sequence of events happen i

Nasty Battles #9 - Last benchers Vs first benchers

-
Image
The classification - There are 2 kinds of students in a class- the outstanding ones and the others who are always standing out of the class. The former being the face of the class and the latter being the backbone. Idiosyncrasies - If a doubt is being asked in the class, the nerds frantically scan the textbooks for the answer while the other ‘chilled out’ kind is like “Just 5 minutes left for the lecture to climax ;)". The first benchers wish to get a degree to get a job (in hope of a ‘bright’ future) while the last benchers consider Facebook as their present and also their future (Who cares if it’s bright or not!?). The former crowd will always be on time, never call in a sick and would LOVE to work overtime (and basically salsa to the teachers’ rhythm). Last benchers, on the other hand, are those who OBVIOUSLY want to attend the class; but for the fun in their own sweet last bench-ly world (it does amaze me that how they manage to listen to the teachers). They’ve
