‘Hello? Hello? Louder Jack. Didyou not e...: NO MORE…! ‘Hello? Hello? Louder Jack. Did you not eat breakfast?’ ‘Yes, aha… exactly. We have Physics class today. Not the test tho...

NO MORE…!

‘Hello? Hello? Louder Jack. Did you not eat breakfast?’

‘Yes, aha… exactly. We have Physics class today. Not the test though. That is day after tomorrow… but do come today. The topic is important’

Phew… a gush of wind hit Jeremy’s face. Talking on the mobile he looked up and then glanced at the watch.

‘No I will be late!’

‘No it’s nothing Jack. Talking to myself as usual. What was I saying? Oh yes don’t miss today’s class. I am on my way so talk to you later…’

‘Bye then’

‘Damn… 10 more minutes left. I need to be quick’

Observing the overhead bridge for some time he paced on forward. Sweating profusely, he did not bother to look to his sides as he strolled along the road. Cool breeze swept across the atmosphere with the frequent surge of wind hitting him now and then.

The clicking noise of rickshaws and the horns of the bus and car drivers were buzzing around. His ears filled up with the shouting of the people around the busy road. As he looked towards his left he saw two drivers fighting over something… the issue was unknown but whatever the cause one thing was understandable that they were not using any good language to confront one another.

One rickshaw-puller went straight past him and then shouted out loud, ‘See where you are going!’ Not giving heed to what he said Jeremy moved on and walked up on to the pavement of the other side.

Now he had to cross the road on this side and with it he would finally reach his college. He was staring at the main entrance where students were coming while some were going. With his earphones plugged in and his favorite song being played on the mobile he started his journey towards his college gate. Taking a peek left and then right he walked on. Shaking his head and singing, he kept on going as if he is a rock star.

It was to his astonishment when he suddenly found out that a truck was on the oncoming. Stunned and shocked he removed his earphones and gaped at the truck. It was as if he was a statue, as if his body had malfunctioned and he could not move. All his senses seemed to have vanished. A long beeping sound rang through his ears. At some distant the on lookers were shouting, telling him to move away… but there he was stuck, glued to the place. The human body was not responding. The brain had stopped all its activities.

So close was the truck now that the smell of petrol from its engine reached his nose. The heat from it caused goosebumps. Time seemed to have stopped for a second. Jeremy knew death was on his doorstep…

…

Jeremy flew across the road and hit the wall of his college, his head bounced up from the ground below. His body twisted and curved. The human anatomy is not supposed to bend this way! He Jeremy rested there as an innocent soul. It was as if his life was snatched away from him. Jeremy was NO MORE!

Many such Jeremy’s are dying nowadays thanks to of course their carelessness, not using the overhead bridges that links one pavement to the other, listening to songs while crossing the road, etc. Such horrendous acts can be stopped if we are just a little bit careful after all, YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE (YOLO). Just think if you die then let alone be the school you will never be able to attend anything!

While for drivers I have only one thing to say to them… this is not a Need for Speed game or GTA series. Stricter rules should be made for such people who drive so fast on the roads, who drink and drive, who talk on the phones and drive, who break traffic rules, etc.

BE SAFE AND YEAH DO NOT DANCE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD.

THAT KILLS ALSO!

Ablaze

I was never afraid of light but this was a nightmare. So bright, my eyes could not see anything clearly. I looked around with my eyes almost closed, whatever little I could see. It was so bright as if the sun was right in front of me. The smell of the rotten woodwork reached my nose. I could hear screams. It was as if I was going to melt down anytime, any moment. The room became hotter with each passing second. Never have I thought that I would have gone through such a fearful day.

What did I expect and what just happened? A month of trip out to my parent’s house after the ordeal at college… what a mistake I have done. I just hope they are safe. Thank God I send them to the movies today; but here I am… fighting with life and death with the only hope of surviving this horrendous situation I am in.

‘Boom! Creeeeekkk… Boom!’ the sound kept on unremittingly, floating through the damp moisten air of fumes and smoke. Sitting under the table with my legs crossed I look into the distant. The curtains were falling off and in the blink of my eye they mixed away into a cloud of dust and ashes. Red and blue lights were reflecting off the window glass which implied that the police and the firemen were here. With the hope of being saved I sat down patiently calling my savior, my God. The temperature seemed to increase quite a bit. Glancing at my wristwatch I saw it was half past midnight…

Suddenly a pillar broke down crashing through the ground and going below. The whole place was tearing apart. With great courage I stood up. The road towards the main door was broken. All I could see was the basement and the fallen pillar from up here. It was one of those times I really wanted a superhero to be real. Wish superman came to save me now! As I took my first step a gush of pain ran through my whole body. I understood I had torn a ligament when the plank of wood above fell on my leg as I was going to take cover before this incident had started. Dragging myself to the bathroom I noticed myself in the mirror. Was it me? Who is this? Before I could even register a thought in my mind a loud noise broke out. Another pillar had just fallen. My time was short. I needed to get out, but how? Looking up at the walls of the bathroom I initiated my observation to search for a ventilator. Perhaps a broken wall through which I can squeeze through. Something to save me…

The place was silenced. With my hands held tight I sat at my previous spot anticipating a miracle. I knew I had no strength to save myself. Thousands of thoughts were running through my mind… Is this hell? Perhaps it’s a dream? What mistakes did I do in life, to fall in such a position? I don’t want to die this way… but… but… my time is short! Never should I had come home!

The amount of carbon dioxide increased greatly in the room. Very soon I began to cough. I coughed so hard… felt like my intestines and my lungs will burst out. Breathing became difficult. No sound whatsoever. It was so hushed that the only sound I could hear was the rage of the fiery walls and ceilings and the tick-tock of my wristwatch. Each tick and each tock felt like a signal of my expiry. All people might have left maybe. Taking one last breath with great difficulty I closed my eyes, listened and thought with a smile on my face… I am now alone… stranded in this very house where I began my life and now here it ends.

Different Types of Commercials(Advertisements)

Who doesn’t love to watch the TV? It is considered as one of the best ways to kill time. Gaping at the one eyed monster even when your favorite show is not on air is a fun thing to do to waste precious seconds of our lives; but over the years that changed. TV’s have become a source of showcasing products nowadays.

So why not go through some commercials that the TELEVISION presents to us…

Perfume commercials…readers let’s make it straight you can’t smell perfume scents coming out from the TV’s. You simply can’t smell it! All you will notice is a six packed man applying something on their body and girls running towards him… wow as if that ever happened to me! There are also some advertisements which show a couple get stranded in the middle of the sea and the smell of perfume causes the women to be sensual. I mean seriously? In the middle of the sea. No wait perhaps it was the ocean... oh well I don’t remember. You know what would make sense? Children coming home smelly after playing football/soccer and applying perfume to get rid of the smell. Now that’s an honest commercial!

 Medical(hospital) commercials… have you ever seen great medical hospitals on TV giving 7star treatment with the best medical instruments possible in the world? I bet you have. Fear no more cause all of them are fake! It was once that I opted to visit one such hospital with the hope of observing the beauty it holds. The only beauty I saw was the empty canteen with food lying in their stocks and houseflies their customers! The place was buzzing with people most of which were busy playing clash of clans or perhaps came here to find Pokémons! I love both the games though. Moreover, let it be the a 7star management the washrooms are even not good. Water leaking from pipes and the superb smell that arises all around… lights flicker as if you are in a haunted house until you come out to find that people are still there buzzing around and the country's population is only increasing!

Game commercials… this really kills me. Who has not seen the trailer of Pokémon go? You should go and watch it once. According to them it was supposed to be Pokémons lying around in the roads which we could have seen with the naked eye. With the technology of VR, I thought it was possible but guess what no. You need to carry your phone with you wherever you go. The game basically consisting of google maps has created lot of hype in the world. It is ultimately teaching you Geography of your place in a fun way, and that is by walking. Well except those who go cycling… or drive cars… whatever, it is the game commercials I think should be true. Giving false hopes and not living up to the expectations is something really heartbreaking. Come on game creators’, games are one of the most important to-do schedules of our life.

Ketchup commercials… eating burgers, eating pizzas, how? How? How? All you need is the boss of all ketchups and Ta-Da the name. I guess that’s how all of them goes. Ketchup commercials are weird and funny. Asian countries have to have such commercials; it is a must. Whatever, the occasions are there has to be ketchup in the ads. May it be a get together occasion, where you will notice that beside a cup of tea there is ketchup… don’t know how they go together. Sometimes even in weddings you will find them. All these can happen in the commercials only. 

Lipstick commercials… just like the perfumes of men this is somewhat similar but for women. Whatever the size of the lips is and whichever the color the lipstick is you are bound to find boys looking at them. Simply awesome. Get the point readers, boys are amazed to see the amazing lipstick color not the girl!

Cigarette commercials… smoking is injurious for health; none of the actors support or promote smoking; smoking causes cancer! Bam! The short note is finished and the actor or actress is seen holding a cigar, smoking. On top of that the marvelous visuals  creates such an atmosphere young kids are bound to try it once. Simply it’s harmful for health and the cigarette packet even says so… but it still sells it. Strange.

Info Commercials… usually those selling selfie sticks with the motive to reduce your arm pain. Also includes the ones selling belts saying that it would reduce your fat. Recently one caught up my eye that they were selling a pen with a video camera on it to capture if their child is studying or not! Did we not get enough pain already? Their motto was, “Best way to spy on people on the cheapest rate.”

Mobile Commercials... they say new electronic equipment come to scene every 3 days to a week. These is something many mobile phones have followed and help to keep the trend. The luxurious metal frame body, the sound quality, memory card space, the camera and what not they show. Many buy such mobiles to find out the reality that the world has been lying to them. The only truth they will find is the "luxurious metal body". Other than that the sound quality is poor as to when we play a song in full volume (which gives us warning that our ear can be damaged) the sound doesn't even reach our ears. Time to see a doctor! Cannot listen to songs. Useless living in this world. All mobiles will have 30 to 40 percent of its memory consumed for its own apps. Leaving us with the harsh reality of not getting the chance to download big games or movies. The camera by the way should be extraordinary. Although the pictures we take make us feel amazed we still have to edit them before posting. On other occasions cameras cannot even focus, alas! Our faces cannot be found then.  

Many more commercials are visible in our everyday life which I guess if I write a book won’t even end it. If there is any I missed please let me know. Of course if you read through all of it congrats on wasting some precious minutes of your life :p !        

I Can, I Will

Note: wrote it in 1^st person for all students who did bad reports… results just part of life!

It doesn’t take me by surprise that I didn’t achieve the greatness I deserved. It has been the worst I did over the past 12 years. A result that I never wanted to give to my parents, one that I don’t believe I was justified to which has also taken away the life in me. I lost to stand up to my name, make history, shut every of my foes up and put a smile on my parents’ face. When everyone is going on and spreading the love of sweetness I broke apart, sitting at a corner, sobbing, with my heart torn to pieces and whimpers being my only companion.

I could have given up. I should have given up. I must have ended my journey here… but like many others I don’t want to die and give up on the face of this beautiful planet and burn in the eternity of the fire of hell. Suicide is not the option. I am known to be knocked down, but I know on many a times on all occasions I have been able to come back strong, stronger than before, like a phoenix rising from its ashes. I know I can come back and make amends. Do what was left to be undone. The roads are tough and toiling but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Take a step towards the long journey, believe in Almighty and give your best… in short… leave no stone unturned. Every dog has its own day and I believe I will have mine too. Living in this beautiful world someday my life will be prosperous, my wishes will come true… and who knows perhaps I will stand the best among all my friends. I didn’t let you down (my friends and family), it’s just that I need some more time. I will make an appearance back on screen, bigger and better. I will achieve success and fame.

Something I long wished for. Something I dream. Something that will make everyone proud of me. If I want to be the best in something than I have to achieve a feat that the world would not have even expected me to do. So what’s the plan? Turn around and walk away? NO! because I believe I can make a piece of history, rather I should say I will. Let that day come and bow down to me, and until then, I promise to work hard because I know I CAN, I WILL!      

A Greener Earth Is a Healthier Earth

Buckminster Fuller once said that, “The best way to predict the FUTURE is to DESIGN it.”

It can be simply understood the importance of green practices needed in our present world from this simple line. Our earth is now at the brink of destruction… thanks to us of course! Undoubtedly we have played a big part in creating a massive upset in the ecological niche of our great planet. It is true that scientists are ASSUMING that there may be earth like planets somewhere in these vast universe, it is also true that we are no aliens to teleport ourselves there faster than the speed of light! In short we don’t have technology to travel such far distances in quick time. Thus for us, we are hand bound and going to other planets to continue our existence… at least for now can be cut from our list of “To-Do Things.”

So finally we reach to the point of green practices that we should undertake to save this lovely planet… which is definitely not so lovely now! Green practices should start from home. It can simply be by planting a baby plant at our house. Also take the small step of saving electricity of your house. Sounds difficult? Nah… not at all; not as tough as climbing Mount Everest! You don’t need any energy to do this work… well you do need some… but nonetheless let’s get down to the topic, go to your house today and make sure to put off all the switches that are on and has no appliance working on it. Make sure to switch off the fans and lights when you leave the room, which I guess Moral Science even taught you! Even if your living room has big windows and the sun is shining brightly outside then please turn off the lights on this sunny day and open your windows! All of us do have a tendency to buy a lot of things for our homes especially for the enhancement and improvement of the beautiful place we are living at. That’s when if small amount of common sense is used we would buy things that would not harm the environment. A simple example is buying glass water containers rather than plastic water containers. Water conservation can also take place if you install filter systems to collect rainwater and use it for both the washing of cars and for plants.

With that being said the most sinister people of the world are the industrialists! No just joking… no offense people! Just that like foolish people of this earth which certainly includes me the industrialists can protect our earth also. Moreover, they can help to preserve a lot of our earthly sources! Reduce the use of the scarce minerals finding alternative sources. Reuse the object again so no more of the minute natural resources will be ending at a quick rate. Recycle the used things as this is a better way to make sure that we use less amount of the reserves left. In tourism industry the introduction of ecotourism can immensely improve the quality of the country. All rare species and plants will be protected and tourists will be able to witness the mystifying culture of the country visited without harming it. Making sure gases which are mostly harmful are cleared up before set off to the atmosphere above… simply because no one wants to breathe in HCL gas I repeat no one wants to breathe in HCL gas! Before disposing of wastes into the seas they should be treated carefully and made sure that there are so harmful contaminants that may kill or damage the aquatic organisms.

Remember sharing is caring? Well that’s what I would say. The earth does not belong to us, but we belong to the earth. This is one thing we all have in common. Common sense is common! So with little intelligence and awareness let’s make the Earth a healthier place to live…
