WALNUT


Usually by looking at the walnuts we think it’s too hard to bite and eat by looking at its appearance. But this hard shell is very soft to bite and is also very healthy. There are three types of walnuts. They are English, black and butter nuts. The benefit of walnut is it lowers the cholesterol and thus reduces the risk of cardiovascular problems, enhances blood flow, boosts your memory.

DARK CIRCLES


Why does this dark circle occur? Is it due to lack of sleep or allergies or whether it is a genetic disease??? Yes the dark circle occurs due to the above mentioned reasons and also due to fluid retention and thinning of skin. Dark circles may also be a sign of dehydration. The best way to get rid of this dark circle is to eat, drink and sleep well. Even one of the remedy for dark circle is we can apply cool cucumber pieces over closed eyes.

MY FAVOURITE MOVIE



I am not very fond of seeing films, but i never miss a good movie. The movie i liked a lot is "BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM ". Actually in that movie the heroine plays football well and she wants to become a football player. But she belongs to a traditional family where they never let girls go out and play. Instead they have to cook. The heroine is just the opposite. She loves to play football all time. Luckily she got into women's football team of her country. Her determination makes her the best and the team gets the world cup. The dialogs were very clear and we find seriousness in humor both side by side in the film.

MY VISIT TO SCHOOL....

Today i went to my school to meet principal for my personal work. Once my work got over i went to visit all my teachers. There i met a teacher. The interesting part of it is that this teacher is the one from whom I've got the maximum scoldings. But today surprisingly, he introduced me to all his students. He asked them to give a clap for me for my success in my career. I was very much embarrassed at the same time felt very happy. Even my teacher was very happy to see me. As i went around my school, i recollected all my past memories. My teacher finally requested me to judge over a competition that is scheduled next week. I felt really very proud to be a student of my school.

Lovely drive on ECR….


One warm evening myself n my close friend went for a drive in ECR road. The weather was so pleasant that we enjoyed the travel. W e both are very much interested in exploring places. On the way we found a place surrounded by mountains and in the middle there was a lake. The view was awesome. We both took a picture there. The lake water was very much clear that even the plants under the water were visible. Then later we spent some time chatting there and started back home. It was really a lovely outing.

SUGAR CANDY.....


Today i went out with my friend to a fair. There i saw one of my favorite shop. It was the sugar candy shop. we both were wondering on how this candy is being done. We could see the maker, dropping a color sugar into a small funnel and finally the candy comes out like sponges. i asked the secret behind this spongy candy and the shop keeper showed us a hot stove under that small funnel like container. Due to this heat, the sugar melts away and comes out through the fine net that covers the container which is revolving at a high speed.
It is really very interesting right ! !
Then we got our 2 candies and left the shop.

DORA THE EXPLORER……


My favorite cartoon show is”DORA THE EXPLORER” in pogo channel. In that cartoon the main character is Dora and its best friend is boots. This show teaches lots of information to kids. Dora is very helpful to all by solving their problems. She explores many new things and has always positive thinking. Kids learn the things too fast by watching this cartoon. So I wish u too should motivate your kids to watch this show and learn more.

PEN DRIVES...


Here is a interesting post about pen drives. Earlier it was too costly to buy a pen drive. A very low memory storage itself would cost around 2000 rupees. But now its really happy to know that we can buy a 8 GB pen drive for jus 1800Rs. Many good companies are there in this field. Kingston, Intex, Transcend etc are some of the good pen drive manufacturers. I too have a 8gb Transcend pen drive. Its really very comfortable to have a pendrive for all purposes than using a dvd or floppy.

MY TRIP TO NORTH INDIA.....


Last week I went for a trip to Shimla and Manaali (North India). The very first day we went for horse riding. The way in which we went on horses was really very steep and thrilling. Later we completed the day by having dinner in coffee day. Next day early morning, we started from there to manaali. It was a very tiresome trip. The view from our resort was really mind blowing with water falls and snow covered mountains. Next day we went to ice point. We wore woolen clothes and boots, played wit snow. Night we had a camp fire where we had lots of fun by playing games and dancing. Ma trip was really memorable. One must never miss such a trip to north India.

STREET LAMPS OR STARS? ? ? ? ? ?



One late night on the way back to my aunt’s place with my cousin from theatre I was shocked to see all these bright sparkles on sky. I felt as if the stars are very near to me that I can even touch it. But later i realized that it was just lights not the stars.

EVEN CACTUS BLOOMS........


When I was in my native I went for a walk in the woods just behind my grandma’s house, I found something very interesting. I was wondering if the cactus could bloom. It is really very rare to look at a cactus, which is supposed to be with thorns and only thorns, but now with some tiny flowers too.

SOLAR ECLIPSE..........


Today is August 1st, 2008, a total solar eclipse day...
A total solar eclipse is when the moon passes in front of the sun and blocks it completely. This is an amazing sight with a strange coincidence. The coincidence is that both look the same size in the sky. Scientifically a solar eclipse occurs when the Moon comes in between the Sun and the Earth. The most important part is that if you ever want to view an eclipse, the first thing is that you must never view the sun with the naked eye or with any optical device, such as binoculars or a telescope! It is proved that at least two and up to five solar eclipses occur each year on earth.
