Mind Your Language

This is exactly why we need ELT or English Language Training in BPOs. Deny it all you want, but we all have influences of our mother tongue in the way we speak English. And no one, definitely not our humble English teacher from primary and middle schools, is to be blamed.

What Is Economics?

Definitions attempt to settle boundaries of the subject which is almost impossible in this changing world. Many renowned economists have attempted to define the discipline of economics. Every definition, so meticulously prepared and presented, soon become inadequate to fast-expanding field of this all-encompassing subject covering almost every activity of human society, undertaken either individually or collectively.

Familypreneur!

“For the two of us, home isn’t a place. It is a person. And we are finally home.” ― Stephanie Perkins, Anna and the French Kiss
My four-year-old came back from school and asked me a question yesterday, she asked, “Aap ghar par saara din kya karte ho Mummy?” (what do you do the whole day at home?). I was totally taken by surprise. Shell shocked. And frankly it took me a couple of seconds to know what exactly would constitute an appropriate answer.

I’m So Middle Class…

That I keep the tags intact on my luggage even months after my flight.That a trip to another city or a country is a major event in my life.That except my house and my office, there are very few places to go.

Celebrating Absurdity!

What if you could win an award for clicking photographs and examining every meal you have eaten for all the years you remember to have lived? Or creating artificial testicles for dogs? Bizzare right?

Having Regrets And Dealing With Them

Now that might not hold for our daily actions, but it makes sense when looking at the bigger picture. On a daily basis, we just regret what we said or did, rather than what we didn’t do or say.“Live life with no regrets”- you read about it in books, on TV and on the internet and it sounds beautiful, but it’s a lie. We can’t undo things, and we can’t help think back about them either. Think about it- I have mine, you must have yours- some tiny, some much bigger.

Remembering What’s Already Been Forgotten

I’ve never really openly discussed these things with anyone, but I’ve always thought that there are certain flashes of memory that you remember and so many other moments that you just don’t. You’ve experienced them, but you just can’t bring them back into mind. The funny thing is that you can’t decide which one to remember. There’s probably a genuine term around for this; but I’m not sure.

Fad Failure!

Harlem Shake: a crazy internet meme started by five Australian boys dancing on the song called “Harlem Shake” by Baauer. It has nothing to do with the original form of dance and now is a rage among the youth, especially You Tubers. The song starts with a 15 seconds long intro with a person in a weird costume or mask, dancing alone and unnoticed. The beat drops and there is an entire group doing random actions to the song with props and costumes.

Summer Bummer!

Skin-peeling sun rays and hair-singing winds, the mention of summertime makes you want to take out your handkerchief and fan yourselves. The only time you can step out is either early morning or after 6 p.m. Girls’ hair are automatically tied up, boys’ hair are cut short, and the world of hats emerges. Ice cream vendors and juice sellers become the most popular people in the area and air-conditioned spots are jam packed. You want to shed clothes, but that will only burn your skin.

Red Nose Day: Why Not In India?

On 15th March Red Nose Day is celebrated. This is a day was first introduced in 1988 by Comic Relief, a British charity. This day is celebrated by people wearing red clothes or uniforms and foam red noses in exchange for donations. People engage in funny or entertaining acts to raise money.
