Kill it with grace!
They say it's wonderful when you enjoy what you read! It's better when what you read is what you'd be getting paid in the near future. That's exactly my thing. I love my course, I love what I do at office as an intern and I'd be thankful to the Almighty everyday for having me on board of my dream job, although there's a huge time to achieve everything and get on the last stage of struggle!
I just got done with my penultimate year examination and I wrote it pretty well. I had little time at hand due to office but I could study satisfactorily. This time was different though. I discovered I hadn't lost any single kilo during my exam, which usually does take place, took place until last year and I'm still facing the after effects of the same! Too much stress and tension leads to too much of weight loss, which is of course way too bad, and for a girl of 22, embarrassing!
Exams have long been my enemy. They suck me up completely from head to toe, not this time by God's grace!
Lesson learnt: Exams are just a part of our busy and colourful lives! It's as simple. I took time to realize unlike most of you. This time, I wrote my exam without shedding even a gram from my body and trust me, I wrote better than what I did in my previous exams! One more thing to add is that when you are in love with your studies, being stressed is inappropriate. Whoever of you is someone like me, please take hold of yourselves and never let exams come in way of your health!
Exams can be taken care of easily when eating and sleeping habits are proper, along with working out! It's, surprisingly, no Herculean task, brownie points for this!

Unearthing crimes and criminals...
Copious factors are involved which induce a person to choose the unfair way ,I will talk about some significant ones here. Ceasare Lombroso, an Italian criminologist, physician and founder of the Italian School of Positivist Criminology had always believed that human nature was responsible for crime, it was a characteristic trait. He was the one who made the words 'born criminal' sound true enough with the help of anthropological criminology. He stated that criminals have peculiar defects or oddities in them which separates them from normal humans and that crime is inherited by them. Criminals, according to him, are persons with a hunch like the apes have had before the evolution. More intricate features include sloping forehead, ears of unusual size, asymmetrical face, long arms and such other physical anomalies. He was also of the belief that thieves, murderers and rapists could be distinguished from specific characteristics and pointed out that there were much more traits of a criminal such as no sense of pain or any touch, more acute sight, lack of or no moral sense, no remorse, impulsiveness and cruelty and too much use of tattooing. But unfortunately, Lombroso couldn't prove his findings and the same were challenged. It was only revived with the discovery of the XYY chromosome which suggested that men with an extra Y chromosome are more violent. It also said that such persons have more arrests than the ones without an extra Y chromosome. Even this discovery was challenged and ultimately didn't hold much water. Later, a study was conducted on examination of twins and non-twin siblings who have been adopted out into different families at or soon after birth and it was concluded that there's a greater similarity in the criminal histories of the sons and their natural fathers than between sons and their adoptive fathers. Such discoveries and examinations make it concrete that genetics are involved but there are two shortcomings which render those useless, the first one being the method of selecting twins for separated twin studies has sometimes inflated the chance that both will be found to have an arrest record. and the second one is that the interaction between children and their adopted parents may itself increase the risk of later involvement in crime.
Second factor involved can easily be targeted towards the family. Family plays a pivotal role in the moulding of a child's mind. Parents who are neglect-some or who don't know how to bring a child up and imbibe good qualities or virtues in him are solely responsible for the birth of criminal minds. Firstly, neglect or avoidance of good parenting hails from several factors like large family size, ignorance or illiteracy of parents, monetary issues, etc. Another reason may be because of harsh parenting like nagging or beating the child, scolding unnecessarily and more than needed discipline. The third cause stems from parents being criminals and the fourth can be associated with family disruption such as divorces. A child's mind is that of a dough, it is tender and it depends on the way one shapes it. Hence, care should always be taken how to expose a child into the world and it is a parent's duty to protect the child from the lawbreaking lot.
The third causation of crime is associated with school performance and intelligence. Studies have shown that students with a low IQ succumb to crimes because of inability to do well in exams. Fourth cause is fairly related to third which talks about the influence of peers. Children start behaving the way their peers do at educational institutes and gradually end up being like them. For example, there have been several drug consumption cases at school and this has always been a result of influences.

Dlya moyey krasivoy babushke !

Once upon a time , she was a gift , now gone kaput!
So why does there have to be a day every year which is dedicated to women? There's a riveting history behind this Celebration. Here you go -
The International Women's Day (IWD) , also known as as International Working Women's Day was initially started as a socialist political event , where women were specially highly spoken of for their extraordinary contribution and participation in the field of politics and related works. This had taken place in the countries of Europe and Russia.
Commenting about a country like India , girls are the most unfortunate of all. There is no ounce of respect shown towards them , no help offered in times of their trying times and no pure intentions displayed towards them. This has made the women folk firm in the belief that nobody is worthy of trusting. They are on their own and they should take good care of themselves. Making the talk more specific by talking about Mumbai , the place I stay , is a harrowing place after 7 pm where you will definitely encounter shady people in many areas and you cannot even think of stepping out. It's a sad fact for women who are out at work until late at night and they have to struggle to keep themselves safe by dressing conservatively minus jewelry. Women who are are regular local transport travellers face the most sleazy looks and comments almost everyday. Such is made apparent by touching women at various places during the busiest hours at the stations and bus stops , these days, even when there is hardly any crowding , women cannot escape those undesirable moments. Various mobile phone applications, pepper sprays and pen knives are a part of all their belongings recently. More than how they plan their office schedule and other work things , they have to spend time thinking how should they keep themselves safe and sound. A very disturbing statistics discovered by me was just some days ago was the dailies talked about safest place in India , whereby , Ahemdabad ranked the first , while Chennai and Poona followed Mumbai was kicked out at the fourth position! Mumbai's rank was lowered significantly and it was really upsetting to know about the plight of this city.
The former suffered an acid attack back in 2005 at Khan Market from one of her friends' brothers only because she did not respond to his romantic advances. I have seen her pictures and believe me , she is a beautiful lady , but the acid pummels left this lass with a burnt face and permanent scars across her face making her lose everything right in front of her eyes. Only recently , she thought of not giving up and was brave enough to face the world yet again. Laxmi's life turning incident took all of us by storm and even the News Channel which has now hired her for hosting one of their shows and what more , she is already done with three shooting schedules!!! Finally , there was a regulation followed for the sale of acids , at the cost of a girl losing her identity.
