Happiest moment

                                 The Happiest Moment of My Life


                
 

       There is not only one happy moment in my life that I can share, but a lot of them that I am not even able to describe them with my words. If I talk about the happiest moment of life, it is when I got accepted to YES Program. It was afternoon on one of school days I was really tired, and it was my midterm exams as well. I was tired of going to school, but I was happy since it was my last year in school. I was studying that day; I remembered that I haven’t prayed yet so I went out of my room to pray. While I was praying my mom’s cell phone rang, I had a feeling that this phone call is for me. My older sister picked up the phone and she was looking at me, it made me surprised that why she is looking at me. After a while max, she cut the phone and started shouting. I finished my praying and then my mom told me that you passed the final test for YES Program and you are one of the finalists. One day when I was a junior in high school my teacher asked me to go to the conference room after I finish my class. I was worried because I escaped one of my classes that day and I thought she is going to talk about that. But after the class when I went to the conference room there were lots of students from my school. Besides there were a girl and a boy from American Councils for International Studies, they talked to us about a program called YES (Youth Exchange and Study). Basically this program was a one year scholarship for high school students. I took this chance and got the entry card to take the test other day. After one day I and my friends we went to the test center in one of Kabul’s high school. The test was supposed to start at 8:00 a.m. By the time we got there it was 9:00a.m., I was worried because I thought we cannot take the test since we are too late. When I entered the school yard, there were hundreds of students from all Kabul girls’ high schools. After I saw all those girls, I lost my hope and I told to myself that it is not hard but impossible for me to get...

Wonderful world

God gave us a world to live in, Food to put on our plates, Water to drink when we are thirsty, That flows down rivers and lakes. Animals that live on the land, Birds that fly in the sky, Fish that live in the sea, All these things that please the eye. When will we come to realise, What a beautiful world we have, We should all want good for the earth, Not destruction and all that is bad. So why do we have to fight, Bringing loss, heartbreak and tears, We live our lives each day, With uncertainties, worries and fears. Why is there so much bitterness, Let's say to ourselves it must cease, People should all come together, Then the world will at last live in peace. I see trees of green, red roses too I see them bloom, for me and you. And I think to myself... what a wonderful world. I see skies of blue, and clouds of white The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night. And I think to myself... what a wonderful world. The colors of the rainbow, so pretty i...

The Coldest Winter I Ever Spent Was a Summer in San Francisco

The Coldest Winter I Ever Spent Was a Summer in San Francisco Posted on November 30, 2011 Locale: San Francisco, California? Paris, France? Duluth, Minnesota? Milwaukee, Wisconsin? Originator: Mark Twain? Horace Walpole? James Quin? R. Q. Grant? Lord Byron? Anonymous? Dear Quote Investigator : Living in Menlo Park near San Francisco I have heard the following witticism credited to Mark Twain many times: The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco. The coldest winter I ever saw was the summer I spent in San Francisco. I actually enjoy the weather here, so this saying always seemed implausible to me. Also, the San Francisco Chronicle once printed an article that cast doubt on the Twain attribution. Can you figure out who created this joke? Also, was the remark originally about SF or some other locale? Quote Investigator : There is no evidence in the papers and speeches of Mark Twain that he ever made this remark about San Franc...
