CURIOUS

The prompting gave me a simple task.
 
Below are 3 sets of words. 
Use all the words in each set to write mini stories in 300 words or less. 
Set 1 paper clips, principal, lunch box, swing, girl with pink ribbon. 
Tried a simple story fast: 
I'll have a title too: CURIOUS 
The girl with pink ribbon was cute. It was her birthday and the blue frock she was wearing caught everyone's eye. She went to the chambers of the Principal of her school. She was wondering what her principal would give her as a birthday present. It was her mother who gave her the blue frock. Her father had presented her a beautiful set of color crayons. She was wondering, what her principal would give. It is always an excitement to wonder what the loved ones would give. 
Principal - a sweet lady greeted the girl and took some chocolates which she offered from her lunch box. And there the principal produced a little pack from her table drawer. She gave that to the little girl with a little pat on her cheek. 
Curiously the little girl opened the pack and there it was - a beautiful swing made out of paper clips.
There are other two sets of words too. My exercise  in writing - I think it would be easier.

Relevant skill The one skill that will probably never go out of fashion is the skill to be able to acquire new skills BY VARALOTTI RENGASAMY "Ma, why do we have such long legs?" a baby camel once asked his mother. "So that we can keep our legs firmly in the desert sand and walk with ease," the mother replied. "And why the big hump at the back?" "We walk in deserts and may go days on end without water. We store our water there in that hump, dear." "And what are these thick, long eye-lashes for?" "To prevent the desert sand from hurting our eyes especially when there are sand storms." Another dozen questions in the same vein were rationally answered by the mother camel. And then came the unanswerable last question: "Then what the hell are we doing in the Mysore Zoo?" Most of our students, especially those coming out of engineering colleges, are like these camels — imprisoned in the wrong place with irrelevant skill-set...

Draft not saved

how is this? Yesterday, I wrote a lengthy blog, taking some inspiration from my friend here. Brett. Forgot to give it a title, saved as a draft. And lo, the entry was not saved. Wrote, about the absence of my mother and my sons mother. Told in the blog that we had a lot of time of our own. Just want to enclose a sound, where I was reading something about shyness in Tamil to my son (recorded on 25-12-2010 ) questions.amr

Reading quotations for motivation. Good or Bad?

Image
after all these mad scribblings are about good bad and searches! Reading too many quotations sometimes is like over eating. The mind becomes unclear and wanders restless...(sometimes becoming very blank) It is the stage when I feel: 'reading quotations is useless' Some time ago I made an attempt to have just four quotations ready - just like some instant energy giver - to motivate me any time. Searching quotations, with the aim to short list for instant energy giving - the mind was blocked - making myself to quote: "reading quotations is of no benefit" At this stage I thought, let me have one quotation - just one - to motivate me any time....... I got this one: Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
