DREAM CHASE What I want to become of me? Asked a colleen, a curious soul Wondering about the mysteries, this world beholds. The vast mélange, she couldn’t comprehend The enormous beauty that seemed to descend Everyone went about their lives Yet no one seemed to enjoy The craziness, the scare The happiness, the despair The only thing that mattered Was getting "there" In a fast-paced world, through and through Where one didn’t even know himself Was it really worth to pull through Enquired the woman of herself. There are so many ideals About what I should do But no real desire To drive you What good does it do, to be a soul- lost and alone On such a beautiful sphere, with mysteries galore. However there is hope, for the ones who dare To break the rules, and fiercely stare Into the world’s eyes and declare That their existence is not bare. Th...

DU:The Fresher Story Getting admission to a DU college seems like crossing the finish line of a race that has not yet begun. Well,after cutting through the steeper than Mt Everest cutoffs,why would it not be? Between the rejoice and relief, comes the first day of college. We walk past those gates with an air of expectation,independence and nervousness around us. Instead of students high on the cool quotient,we see puzzled students trying to find their way and probably,trying to find themselves.(Myth 1:Busted) After a few days in college,it dawns upon us that college is NOT equivalent to absolute chill and there is serious study going on.(Myth 2:Busted) While exploring the whereabouts of our college,we discover a phenomenon called Assignments & Tests which require regular study,just when we thought we were on a vacation from the arduous board examination period.(Myth 3:Busted) While on the myth busting ride,we experienced stuff,far better and beyond our expectat...
The Rupee has tumbled by almost 13% against the US dollar in 2018 and it still stands on weak grounds. It was weighed down by the global rise in crude oil prices as India imports nearly 80 per cent of its fuel needs. Moreover, the US dollar has been performing quite well because of the rapid economic growth which further creates trouble for the currency. On Wednesday, September 12, the rupee scaled down to as low as 72.92 against the US dollar which makes it one of Asia’s worst performing currencies. The effects of this is a widening current account deficit due to rising import bills. The already weak jewellery sector is expected to be hit harder. The depreciating rupee also effects the economy as it has the power to increase domestic inflation and the already high crude oil prices will escalate even more. The short term solution to this is intervention by RBI. However, in the long run the best way to protect the currency from external shocks is by redu cing ...
Apple, Amazon, Walmart, Microsoft, etc. are today amongst those companies, whose success we read about and whose quality & service, we enjoy and trust considerably. We talk about the acme of success that they have reached today, but what we often forget is that their founders too, started with a small dream and an undefeatable passion, like many entrepreneurs; and today it is indeed their hardwork, that has brought them so far. Bringing our focus down to Apple & Amazon, coz very recently, on the 5 th of September 2018, Amazon joined Apple to achieve the $1 trillion market value, for a brief period of time. Woah, did you know that a trillion has like 12 zeroes?!! Yess, so this was definitely a big feat for Amazon!! Amazon has now become the second company to reach the $1 trillion mark publicly. As the tech giant diversifies into various new fields, and gets an even stronger presence than it already has in the market, many analysts predict that Amazon is right on tra...

Cries and pleas faded as memories and feelings were given a platform to let Off......The Feeling of HOMOSEXUALITY. Every trauma of harassment, torture was set free when Section 377 of the INDIAN PENAL CODE was considered null. The day resonated a sun rise of a new era of love when the apex court read down 158-years old colonial law. They believe this as a step for the Equality On which fingers were raised .

JANAMASHTMI FROM THE EYE OF A MATHURAAWAASI The grandeur of festival adds charm and happiness to lives. Nothing is better than a festival falling on Monday, and an extended weekend is a much awaited thing.
