April Bookworm..




" She reads books as one would breathe air, to fill up and live. " - Annie Dillard

That's something you would say if you know me. Yeah I read. Alot. I don't honestly remember when I started reading.. But I can clearly remember Radiant way English book that I used to read in Nursery. I literally read everything which has letters printed/written in and my mom thought it's a good idea to get me the membership of local library. By the second grade I finished reading all the books in the library and wanted more. So mom bought me books.. It was a habit of us to visit the local bookstore at least once a month. Soon books started piling up but was that enough for me? NO... I wanted more.. and more books. As a result of collecting books for about 18 years I have a huge library in my house and also proud to say that I won the 4th place of an all island library competition when I was in seventh grade.
  So why am I telling all this? Because after a long time I had the pleasure of enjoying books and did I waste a second?? NOOO... Today I'm gonna post a list of books I read in April.. Actually I read the most of them in last week. I will not review books, but two books moved me the most.. It was Ugly by Constace Briscoe and Book thief by Markus Zusak.

How to survive A/Ls in 3 months...

Today is the first of May and there are exactly three months until GCE A/L exams begin. I intend to help people who has realized this and started panicking and feeling lost, but not only A/L students but also any student with any upcoming exam can use these tips to ace your exam. I will first explain why most of us usually wait until the day before deadline to do stuff. It's explained by Parkinson's law which states that " Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion". What it means is, if we are given a week to finish a task we will finish it within the week and if we are given an year to finish the same task we will spend the whole year doing it. Well that's how usually us, lazy humans work. Now that you know what happened there is no time to regret about how we procrastinated on unnecessary things etc. Now it's time to damage control. I will not gurantee you will get 3As by following these. (It's possible depending on
