all of us in Malaysia agreeing to the reunion. I started praying about the trip to India right from the start. I prayed for the various aspects of the trip – flights‚ accommodation‚ food‚ transport and friends and of course for good health for Choon and me. This was truly a trip bathed in prayer as it was planned 14 months in advance as compared to the usual vacations. As we told other friends about our proposed trip‚ two others – Teoh and Bangga‚ who had studied in the Punjab Agriculture University

I want to talk about the “sea” in Stephen Crane’s "The Open Boat". The paper tries to explore the three symbolisms of the ocean - freedom‚ life and the end‚ to help readers better understand the sea’s role in the story.

These brilliant men are both renowned composers‚ and through the years have created brilliant catalogs of songs.

Bangalore to Ooty Trip I thought it will be helpful to write a travelouge for my trip to some of those who wish to plan a trip to Ooty from Bangalore by a self driven car. Before planning my trip‚ I tried to search the net for some experiences but all those could not give me a confidence and some of them even discouraged me to go ahead with the trip. The fear was due to descriptions of a dense forest ‚ wild animals and hill driving especially with hair-pin bends. Yet we started this trip along with my
