Call it the CANCER STICK in medical terms, the Death stick in moral terms, a Pipe by Sherlock Holmes in intellectual terms, a Hookah by the princely Nizams of Hyderabad in royal terms or a simple BEEDI in the hard working Rickshaw puller’s terms; they all lead one way, which is, definitely “DOWN THE DRAIN”.

Thanks to the internet, you can now e-mail an e-card to an e-friend or e-learn the e-commerce from an e-book! And if this doesn’t sound even remotely monotonous to one, then he/her must surely be one of those ‘Netizens’.

The process to obtain or renew a passport at the Regional Passport Office, Hyderabad, is nothing short of a nightmare. The papers are flooded daily with complaints of obnoxiously delayed... Read→
If Chetan Bhagat were to pen (or rather, MS word) this article, he’d have probably done away with the introduction by shooting his Let-Me-Tell-You-What-This-Article-Is-Not-About disclaimers, which would go something like — “This article is not a Coming-of-Age story of a nubile enchantress, it’s NOT a story of (just) three idiots, it’s not the story of ‘The Two States’ and it’s not a story.”
It’s rather about the life of ventriloquists and puppets of today’s world. It’s about a lot more... Read→
Attitude is the most frequently used word in the life of a student. It has numerous meanings and its definition is modified and changed with one’s personal interpretation and perspective of life. While some consider it to be a disposition or belief or state of mind and posture one is in while interacting with another, many others prefer to define it as the manner in which one carries oneself.
