The Introduction

-




From the name of my blog its not hard to guess the content. For me english is not just a language but also the first and only true love of my life.
Today, when english is recognized as the international language used for communication, it's shocking to know that only 1.5 billion out of the staggering 7.5 billion speak english. To top it off, only 125 million Indians speak english of the colossal 1.32 billion.


 So, I am aiming to be a teacher (of course I'll be teaching English)  but for the fear of losing touch with the language, I'll be blogging. I intend to write on creative writing topics like:

 speech,
letter,
story writing,
essays,
paraphrase,
views and counterviews,
expansion of ideas (explaining a quote,proverb or short poems in detail),
reports,
book reviews/movie reviews,
dos and don'ts,
dialogue writing
and some anecdotes(real life incidents)

So basically, it's all about learning and understanding the language. I'll be posting every Monday and Thursday.

 cheers,
Anusha

Bright Morning - William Wordsworth

-

 'Bright Morning' is a comparatively  less known poem but, is the most charming and eye-catching for me. I had it as a part of my english curriculum in school, when asked to paraphrase it as a homework by the teacher, I felt that it was the best paraphrase I had ever written. So, let's talk about what exactly is a paraphrase. Paraphrasing  involves taking a set of facts or opinions and rewording them. While  paraphrasing , it is important to keep the original  meaning  and to present it in a new form. Basically, you are simply writing something in your own words that expresses the original idea. William Wordsworth is one of the most iconic poet known to mankind. His poems are beyond comparison and he never ceased to grab the reader's attention with the beauty and depth of his poems. One after the other, he wrote poems with each being better than the rest. Bright Morning There was a roaring in the wind all night; The rain came heavily a...

Why I don't go to supermarkets....

'You are late again! Why can't you come little earlier?", I said for the hundredth time. This was a typical Friday and Saturday senario. As usual my mom was late to pick me from my Kathak class. "Why can't you come on cycle if you have so much problem?", she said not willing to admit that she had overslept. Again. "Fine. I'll take the cycle from next class." I say raising my hands surrendering. I sit on the scooty as we zig zag our way through the Saturday traffic. We missed the lane leading to our apartment. "Our building was behind." I say. "I know you got an A in Geography but we are going to the supermarket."  "Woah! How come I am being dragged in this?" I question. My parents are coming to stay with us for a fortnight the last thing I want them to say is we live in a cave." she answered. I am about to point out that all our cabinets are overflowing with stuff and they flood our house when we open...

The Spectacular Quarantine Tales

-
   Not all of us are accustomed to living indoors throughout the day, especially avec our family. Gazing at the scenic beauty of the blank walls and holding the window railings as if I were in a jail and long to be free have occupied a huge part of my day.   My day typically begins with my father yelling at us and trying to wake us at dawn. Catching the first rays of sun is an activity in which he aims to engage me in. Unfortunately, waking up at the ungodly hour of 6 in the morning, a time reserved for bats and vampires does not fall in my to-do list for vacations (read: quarantine).   I beg for 2 more hours of decent sleep and Dad storms off towards his mobile and plays his favorite old songs which by a massive coincidence sound like opera shows. This awakens my sister, who is as cheery is as a peacock in rains.   She runs to get ready for the day while singing K-pop songs. She claims to be able to speak Korean quite fluently, but since I am unable t...
