FINAL EXAM

       Final exam is a test given to students at the end of a course of study. Final exam sounds like danger for me. I feel sad and stress. Because I have to prepare for it. they will be several questions in my mind.such as can i really score in all the subject that i am taking. m i fully be prepared.Feeling like there are too many pressures and demands on me. other than that It's the body's way of rising to a challenge and preparing to meet a tough situation with focus, strength, stamina, and heightened alertness.

         This natural reaction is known as the stress response. Working properly, the body's stress response enhances a person's ability to perform well under pressure. But the stress response can also cause problems when it overreacts or fails to turn off and reset itself properly.so i always work hard for my final examination. because i think its my life.

MY FAVORITE FICTIONAL CHARACTER

My favorite fictional character is Ms. Jhumpa Lahiri. Jhumpa Lahiri was born in London and raised in Rhode Island. She is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, and author of two previous books. Her debut collection of stories,I really love her short story Interpreter of Maladies sold 600,000 copies and received the 2000 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.Ms. Lahiri writes about people in Unaccustomed Earth with an intimate knowledge of their conflicted hearts, using her lapidary eye for detail to conjure their daily lives with extraordinary precision. Ms. Jhumpa Lahiri's appreciation of the wages of time and mortality and her understanding too of the missed connections that plague her husbands and wives, parents and children, lovers and friends. she also shows how haunted they remain by the burden of their families' dreams and their awareness of their role in the generational process of Americanization. All the story in his book really amazing. Jhumpa Lahiri puts so large an emphasis on the 'stories of Indians. The stories look more realistic.

From my opinion this one of the best movies because from beginning until the end of the movie I really enjoy watching it really interesting. I think the main reason that like this movie is because of character Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp). For me he is such a talented person in acting. The original film was nominated for five Academy Awards, including Best Actor for Depp. We can see the hard work of the groups. They really have done a good job.

MONKEY

MONKEY



The first thing comes to my mine about monkey is its very naughty pet and also its dangerous. But Monkeys are very intelligent. Monkeys range in size from the Pygmy Marmoset, at 140 to 160 millimeters (5–6 in) long (plus tail) and 120 to 140 grams (4–5 oz) in weight, to the male Mandrill, almost 1 meter (3.3 ft) long and weighing 35 kilograms (77 lb).(from Wikipedia).

Monkey love to eat banana, fruit, leaves, seeds, nuts, flowers and some monkey also eat small animals such as spiders. Other than that we also get benefit from monkey now we practice of eating monkey brains there is a belief that eating the monkeys' brain can cure some of specific sick. And also A number of countries have used monkeys as part of their space exploration programmers’ including the United States and France. The first monkey in space was Albert II who flew in the US-launched V-2 rocket on June 14, 1949. Some of monkeys body parts are similar to human for example the fingers are almost the same to humans.

Monkey also play such a big role in religion. Hanuman, a prominent divine entity in Hinduism, is a monkey-like humanoid. Hanuman's exploits are much celebrated in a variety of religious and cultural traditions not only in Hinduism. Monkey is also one of the Three Senseless Creatures, symbolizing greed, with the tiger representing anger and the deer lovesickness. So monkey is not just an a animal.

FORGIVENESS

FORGIVENESS
Wikipedia’s definition for Forgiveness is: "The mental, and/or spiritual process of ceasing to feel resentment, indignation or anger against another person for a perceived offense, difference or mistake, or ceasing to demand punishment or restitution." Let’s be clear that forgiveness doesn’t mean that we are approving, accepting, dismissing or condoning what someone else did. From my opinion forgiveness defines compassionate feelings that support a willingness to forgive the act of excusing a mistake or offense.
For me is it harder to forgive someone or ask for forgiveness? I think it depends on the circumstances. If someone just makes fun of me it is much easier to forgive than to ask for forgiveness because asking for forgiveness makes me look like a loser. In asking for forgiveness you also have to admit you are wrong and people don't like to do that. The other time I think it is easier to ask forgiveness is from your parents because of the unconditional love they have for you. There are many life enhancing benefits of forgiveness. For instance, forgiveness can help us to feel happier and make us feel less stressed. Thru forgiveness, our health benefits on all levels; mentally, emotionally, spiritually and even physically. Forgiveness also decreases one's chances of alcohol or drug abuse. Other than that will help you to gain a better understanding of the effects that unforgiveness has on us and why forgiveness is worth our time and effort.
Over all I think that it is more difficult to ask for forgiveness than to give it because people do not want to admit they were wrong and that it makes you look stupid. The only time I think that it is easier to ask for forgiveness is when you are dealing with you parents or when you are dealing with the church. But it is also hard to give forgiveness in some circumstances; consequently, they can both be difficult.

MAROON 5

Maroon 5 is an American rock band from Los Angeles, California. While they were in high school, vocalist and rhythm guitarist Adam Levine, keyboardist Jesse Carmichael, bass guitarist Mickey Madden, and drummer Ryan Dusick formed a garage band called Kara's Flowers and released one album in 1997. They reformed, with guitarist James Valentine, and pursued a new direction as Maroon 5. The band played its first gig at Whisky a Go Go on September 16, 1995. The band won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 2005. Not only that they also won many more awards. There are no girls in their groups. There are only 5 handsome boys. Here I attach one of their band pictures to identify their members.
The 'This Love' group will write a song in just 24 hours as they take part in a special session whereby fans can link to the band in the studio via the internet and suggest ideas for the song's lyrics, rhythm, riffs and hooks. The recording session, to be held in London, will be steamed live on the internet and the band will work with fans in real time to create the one-off track. Fans will appear to the group through a movement based projection system, which will stream their thoughts and comments to the whole studio space rather than the group - Adam Levine, James Valentine, Jesse Carmichael, Michael Madden and Matt Flynn - having to gather around a computer screen.

So I think this is one of the best way how they maintain their relationship with their fans.

My favourite singer..

My Favourite Singer

My favorite singer is A.R Rahman (Alla Rakha Rahman) born 6 January as a A.S Dillep Kumar in Chennai Tamil Nadu. He is an Indian film composer, record producer, musician and singer. His film scoring career began in the early 1990s with the film Roja. He has won twenty nine film fare awards in south and national. He has gain a degree in western classical music from the Trinity College of Music in London, and set up his own in-house that the place where he put her first step.

A.R Rahman he is legend of music. We don’t have to introduce, his name itself will speak for him. His achievement brings great pride to our Indian nation. He has stolen the hearts of millions of people thought his music. A.R Rahman wins Oscars for the achievement in music written for motion pictures (Original song) for the song Jai Ho from Slumdog Millionaire – Music by A.R. Rahman this is one the best achievement that he can’t forget until end of his life. AR Rahman has bagged two nominations for Oscars once again.

He is married to Saira Banu and has three children, Two Daughters - Khadijah, Rahima, Son - Aameen (Roomi). His children also will take a part in his father career. For example: Ameen sings the track "NaNa" from Couples Retreat and his daughter Khatija the track "Pudhiya Manidha" from Enthiran the tamil movie. Other than that Rahman has been involved in several projects aside from film such as Vande Mataram, an album of his original compositions released on India's 50th anniversary of independence in 1997.

In addition he not only has good voice but also has talents playing the keyboard and piano, the synthesizer, the harmonium and the guitar. By virtue of these qualities, broad ranging lyrics his music cuts across the spectrum of classes and cultures within Indian society. The lyrics will be very meaning full and there is always a good message for society.

At the last he is a great gentleman. Moreover he is very friendly to his fans. Rahman will be "one of the world's great living composers in any medium" I hope he will win more Oscar awards for his future music.

They have won seven Grammy Awards from twenty nominations. 2009 was their most successful year having received seven nominations at the 51st Grammy Awards—more than they had done previously—of which they won three.(from: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).

Moreover they use the instrumental combination of guitar, bass, drums, and piano, along with vocals. Such a things make their band more unique. Other than that the perfectly chosen lyrics along with simple melodies express the emotions. They has stolen the hearts of millions of people thought their music. Music is an expression of emotion. When that listener is fully attending to the music, the music causes him to feel that emotion by or in directly expressing it.“Music speaks what cannot be expressed, and give rest to the mind. So that we can leave from stress. Music speaks for itself and the person who listens to it. It has the ability to influence people’s attitudes it’s mainly happen for teenagers. They try to change their attitude and dressing style.

I wish that all the best for their future programs. Eventually, the band worked out their differences and put in place a new set of rules to keep the group intact. I hope they achieve the band's status as the "biggest, best band in the world.
