STRANGE...isnt it?

"Stay the same...." thts the name of a song by sum singer calld... i dont rmmbr. i thnk evry word in tht song is true. it strts with 'dont u evr wish u were sum1 else.......' Absolutely correct tht is! i got proof yestrday...........

as planned b4 rituporna, my basketball frnd, came to my house with me aftr the practice. on the way, ritu informd me bout sumthn (sory i cant say tht) nd her mothr who was also coming with me, confirmed it. at first i couldnt bliev my ears, but as i had learnt to accept the truth frm incidents b4, i did so in this case too. i solved ritus probs concernin email. she was vry happy. aftr doing a few more things in the computer she went home with her mothr...

ok tht was jus an introduction.... now cums the main thin..
i was vry sad aftr wat i had heard frm ritu. so i was vry quiet which was not at all usual.. well i didnt do it intentionally. didi, dadu, gargidi nd her mothr (my mami) had cum. they were talking among thmselves whn i silently entrd the room nd stood thre with no words. they noticed tht i was not talking which was really unusual to thm! they askd me the reason of my being silent whn i jus gav thm a small smile. throughout their visit i was quiet nd was thinkin bout wat i had heard. i was vry sad. they jus joked on me nd gargidi for we were not talking to each othr. aftr few mins they decidd to go. altho they didnt question me ny furthr i couldnt escape the watchful eyes of my mothr. she went on asking me what had happend nd i couldnt find nythn else to do othr thn laughing. later on she bcame vry serious bout the mattter nd said, " hiya ki hoyeche tomar bolo ami jante chai." i rplied, "protyekdinto bolo ami beshi kotha bolchi, okarone kotha bolchi. ekhon ami chup kore achi ekhon bolcho kotha bolte!' ma said "thik acche". see! whn u stay normal as u r in general, ppl will ask u not to b so, they will ask u to be 'bhalo'. whn u r so, ppl dont like tht too. its really strnge...thts y i thnk we shud all -----

STAY THE SAME!

the hungry tide---ok....

i finished the book today, The Hungry Tide" by Amitaav Ghosh. i strtd rdin it quite a long time ago on panchami. its an adult book which ma gav me to read. so the language nd xpressions were quite hard +new to me. gradually i got used to it. it is a book on the tide country of sundarbans. the life in the country where most of the land sinks regularly evryday. the main characters were kanai, piya, nirmal, kusum, fokir. fokir died in the cyclone tht took place at the vry end of the story. he does not hav a single sppech here. still he became the hero by helping nd saving piya in many ways. piya was a cetologist who came thre to find info bout the Oraella dolphin nd Gangetic Dolphin. kanai was a translator who came to Visit in lusibari on his aunt's call. he met piya on his way to Lusibari.
Nirmal had left a small package for kanai to open nd read. so his wife nirmala askd kanai to cum to Lusibari.
b4 1970s during the time of the division of bangla, ppl who were hindi were forced to leave their land nd come to india. they were gathered in a forst in Madhya Pradesh. frm there a group of ppl decided to return to their tide country as they cudnt bear the 'red' soil thre in MP. they settled on an island called Morichjhapi which was a part of the Forest Department. so, vry soon thre was a conflict btween the goverment nd fighting, bloodshedding strted. the settlers blievd in a god calld bon bibi.
i liked the book vry much nd was quite disappointd when fokir died. it was a diff world , away frm ours. the picture of the sundarbans, lusibari ..........it seemd like watching a movie.
i should giv marks----- 7/10
