Instincts Patrick seemed so destroyed that day. The bridge in his nose turned to the other side as one of the unknown‚ off-drifted man pushed an amount of punch against his face. It was very hard to see that eye to eye. It’s been a very crucial day for me‚ lots of unorganized and twirling ideas up my head that afternoon. I weren’t able to comply with my enough requirements and one of our subjects just freaked me out. Me and my partner decided to go to her house to finish such matter but suddenly

Nowadays‚ cheating is not rare on campus‚ & like an epidemic‚ it is spreading more & more widely. Why? As a college student‚ I have to say that the importance of exams is so great that scores become the first concern of most of the college students. No one can afford a failure. It will leave a smirch in the student’s record‚ which can’t be removed easily & will go with him/her for all his/her life. How do the students do the nasty thing?

Irrational use of water resources - Water is the most important element of any creature’s life. A person can survive weeks without any food‚ but none can survive 3 days without any water. People waste water in their homes without even realizing it. We have become so accustomed to have a 24 hour supply of water to meet all of our needs from cooking‚ to cleaning‚ to drinking‚ that we sometimes forget that we do not have an infinite supply of water. Everyday water is wasted through leaky taps

It was a cold friday afternoon as I sat at the bus stop waiting to get home. I had just got out of an intense Friday lecture from the Northampton local Mosque. The Imam was furious and obviously disgusted at the behavior of our generation. "How do we live with ourselves" Imam Aseem Ibrahim had said.
