I just don't know what to say,i don't know what to do

I feel like an infant child,without any cause or purpose,

I feel so lost, so blue.

I reach out, holding on to nothing but air in my hands,

but still i pretend as if i held you,

I just don't care now bout anything else in this world because my world my love is you,

as the days appear as mere illusions and the nights pass away taunting,

with every breathe i take,

I feel just like a toy in the hand of inevitable time,every moment i live is fake

Many a times i close my eyes,just to see your smiling face..

The precious streak of hair running down your face,softly hugging your cheeks, i wish i could take its place,

I sometimes foolishly wish that i could grow wings,

so that i could fly off to where you are,

You live on inside my heart, you are never gone,

I sometimes imagine whether my life would have been the same,

i often look up at the lonely sky,in prayer for your early return..

God as it seems to me is tormenting me,testing my will,my faith, my love and concern,

When some day, I'll go so far away that you wont even remember me in some way,

i just want to take up this opportunity to say,you are and always will be the best thing in my life,

you are my will,my strength,my only reason to survive,

I will always be yours to hold,cherish and to love,

This is a promise i make to you in front of the heaven up above,

I will always be thankful to God for giving you to me,

because when you are with me i am happy,careless and free,

So always remember my love that even though, sometimes,

we may not be together and separated miles apart,

but stay assured that you'll always be in my heart,

Because loving you might be the easiest thing,but,

Missing You is the hardest part

Morning alarm in my mobile rings at 6:45 am .I woke up in hurry and was disappointed to realize that the workshop is over and i need not to wake up early. But that was a dream actually. After that i Kept recalling the loads of fun and leanings which I had on previous day and then went back to dreams once again.

Everyone in my batch,Was Wondering, what is really the purpose of Team Work?And they found out the answer at last HOW: After attending this fun filled, dynamic and life transforming workshop “TEAM  THEATER”

We were put through various acting based exercises and games. The sessions are divided between discussion and practical with lots of games and exercises, always leaving my colleagues hungry for more. 

I will not describe what I have done in that workshop and about the events, words are not enough. Though I never made it big in theater or films, This theater helped me overcome my stage fright. It gave me the confidence to maintain my composure before audiences. Voice, diction, it covers everything.

And this theater workshop came at a time when I was not doing too great. I had just left my university and joined my first job, and was wondering what to do next. It’s not very easy to stand up in front of 50-60 people and perform but when you get that kind of from others it becomes a piece of cake. Today i am proud of that and after that day I was never scared to make a mistake.

It’s a workshop which is definitely worth enrolling. In addition to that I have met friends from with different aspects of life. Hats off to wonderful Director of the movie “TEAM THEATER ” MR.Jagath Jayasekara!

I was wondering what could I do with CD's that I cannot use anymore.Here are some of the creative ideas that struck my mind!

You can make some music deco's with it.a small phone book,scrapbook, or first clean it then paint it with poster colors,stick some pieces of broken mirror,& make a wonderful picture frame,write "do not disturb" or other things creatively & hang it to your room door when it's needed.

Broke it in some pieces then gather them together to make a new shape! & decorate it as a picture,make a birthday card with it.

You can take one of these battery clocks (not digital, the ones with the pointers)
All you have to do is take out the pointers, pass the axe on the CD's hole and put the pointers back.you've got a cool CD clock.


If you have lot of CDs, pile them up and stick a PVC cylinder through the holes (this cylinder should be longer than the stack of CDs so you can attach it to a base on the bottom and to the light bulb holder on the top), then run an electrical cord through that.You can paint the outside of the CD stack or leave it as it is. Very modern!

A shorter stack of CDs can be used as a candle holder (glue the CDs together).Another idea is to use a medium size pile of CDs as a 'solitaire' vase for 1-2 (artificial or dried) flowers.

It Depends what you're interested in & what you need!
hope it has helped!

This is a poem written by Sir Walter Scott ,I would like to share with you all. Many might have encountered this when you were in school. This has created a lasting impression in my mind.

There could be no girl who doesn’t go fascinated with fairy tales, princes, princesses. Cindrella, sleeping beauty, snow white, Beauty and the beast and what not in this genre must have definitely stimulated dreams of a prince coming some day in his horse and fleeing with you as his bride. I agree even I had those expectations and I would say I was even waiting for such a thing in my life to occur. There is nothing to get embarrassed about this feeling to share openly as I am sure every second girl must have gone past this looking at her front door waiting for her prince.

Well this poem was read by my teacher when I was in the 7th. She is an excellent teacher, she will draw our complete attention towards what she is teaching by dramatising every line of a poem.

This poem rather a ballad, is about Lochinvar the hero, who is a fearless young Scott coming across the border from Scotland to England, snatches the English Lord’s daughter, fair Ellen and boldly rides back with her to Scotland.

The poet brings out a splendid pen portrayal of Lochinvar and his lady love, Ellen.The two lines of the poem “None but the brave deserves the fair” and “Faint heart never won fair lady” simply finishes the poem bottomline.

Lochinvar is a gallant and a dauntless young Scott, faithful in his love with Ellen. Determined to win over Ellen, he crosses the boundary between England and Scotland, swims across river Eske and reaches the Netherby Gate. But the bride Ellen is consented to a laggard in love and a dastard in war. Ellen's father is giving Ellen in marriage to another guy of his choice.

On seeing Lochinvar the brides father asks him whether he has come to fight or to make peace. Lochinvar answer saying that his proposal is denied and informs he has come only for a cup of wine and to dance with the bride. He says

“Love swells like the Solway , but ebbs like its tide,

And now I am come, with this lost love of mine.”

The tidal waves in Solway Firth rises and sinks swiftly, likewise love if not encouraged will sink with equal swiftness.

In this way Lochinvar misleads the English lord and confidently convinces the Lord that there are many young women who are lovelier than Ellen gladly to be the bride to him.

The bride Ellen kisses the goblet and Lochinvar drinks it in a single gulp and throws it down. Ellen stands embarrassed with a smile in her lips and a tear in her eye. Lochinvar then takes her soft hand and they dance so elegantly in a form that everyone gathered there think Nether by hall has never graced such a beautiful couple. Ellens mother frets and her father fumes at the sight. Here and there people whisper there could be no better match for Ellen than young daring Lochinvar.

In the course of dancing Lochinvar and Ellen reach the hall door. Lochinvar whispers into Ellen’s ears. Then he swings Ellen onto his horse back and springs up after her triumphantly exclaiming ‘she is won’. He continues to ridewith Ellen at great speed over bank, bush and scaur.although the bride’s kinsman jointly chase themon Cannobie Lee, the lost bride of Netherby never did the see.

The poet simply celebrates the courage and true love of a gallant.

IELTS stands for International English Language Testing System Which is conducted by BRITISH COUNCIL to Test the standard of English among students. Here are some of the tips for scoring more in IELTS. IELTS exam consists of 4 parts.They are,

1.Listening
2.Reading
3.Speaking
4.Writing

Listening: This is the easiest part of the test, and this is a part where you can really boost your overall band.personally i think this is one section where you should put in a lot of practice.the trick in an IELTS, is to be cool and composed, your not going to make it any better by being nervous.

1)Listen to instructions carefully.
2)Watch out for Numbers it is pretty tricky.

Reading: Go through a lot of journals and news articles, most of their reading sections are from them.remember this is one test where you can easily lose or gain marks, watch out for the easy questions, normally the answer is not what you think. most people do the tough questions easily and lose out on the easy ones.

In, The first two sections you can forecast your marks easily, they are corrected by persons called as clerical markers.but the next two i.e: the Writing and Speaking are subjective, it all depends on the examiner.

Writing: Writing section, needs a lot of practice, try to structure your sentences properly no incomplete sentences.do not add abbreviations.in this task, they check for four things,

1. Task fulfillment: how well you describe the process or chart etc.
2. how well they are linked, you can use different methods, such as "cause and effect", "ascending order", "Descending order"
3. The clarity in your text, how clear your ideas are. you shouldnt make the examiner read your essays a second time. 4. Last but not least, how creative you are.

My suggestion, go for a lot of model essays on the net, i practiced on those.

Speaking. Actually this is pretty easy, people only think that it is tough, the secret over here is to be comfortable.

1)Use simple language, no slang, use a moderate amount of vocabulary.
2)Do not prepare extensively for speaking section, why i say this is because, when you prepare a lot, you will get confused and the examiner will quickly notice this.

MY TIP:
i)There are some standard questions on the net, based on speaking, prepare an answer for them.

ii)Instead of focusing more on the topics, you could keep your focus on common expressions that are used in a conversation. such as "I Agree with you", "on the contrary", "looking at it, in this perspective", "In my belief" etc, these are just for a sample, you could use many more.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST, FOR HEAVENS SAKE, DO NOT GO AFTER ANY BOOKS, IT IS NOT JUST WORTH IT, YOU COULD GET A HELL LOT OF ITEMS FREE ON THE WEB.
