These winters have seriously taken toll on the lucknow roads, here traffic is a natural phenomenon and nobody escapes this glorious event in any part of the day. Anyone driving through engineering college, tehri pulia ,munsi pulia and the great polytechnic . This is the natural phenomenon that is so integral, that when on Saturdays it’s not there, people feel incomplete. Though my father has suggested me to drive through kapporthala road which has less traffic, but I love to drive through this mess ,since I learnt my best life lessons while I got stuck in traffic, like being more patient, kind and down to road.

The announcement came, last night after the fraternity was tired of some loose dreams of the lady who resides by the river Gomti and thinks to be residing by The Thames. Aping the same gesture Pulitzer fraternity too announces Pulitzer prize 2014 to the same moron for at least go out and try some ground reporting.” Then artist brain took the charge “ Censor what’s wrong with you ,cant you think something creative ,there is always something destructive going on in your brain, you don’t know one day this lady and her pen would conquer the world” Censor brain imploded” what conquering her favorite overused word, don’t you ...

When on morning January 1, 2014, around 4:00 am she left her bed, she decided today would be real happy New Year for her. Her husband still laid in inebriated state as if his mother breastfed him with the beer. People’s life began after sun rise; however her life sets after the sun rise.
