Obama wins Nobel Prize


I don't believe when I see Barak Obama wins Nobel Peace  Prize this year, but it is the truth. Obama breaks all record. He is the first Afro-American president in the U.S.A. Now he gets the Nobel prize. He creates a new climate in international politics. Obama takes many controversial decision as a American President. He wins Nobel Peace Prize, it is also very controversial. Many people don't like him but he is my hero. I think he deserves the prize.

My speech about Phone card & Coins

Last week I gave my speech in front of the class. now I give you my speech to all.

        My obsession is collecting phone cards or coins. Someone think what is this? Collecting phone card ! We hear someone collect coins but we never heard someone collect phone card. Or someone think what is phone card?  I think everyone use phone card or calling card here to call home. In here we use the same calling card every time. We don’t collect it. But my phone cards are from different countries . I have 53 countries phone card. I collect them form my brother, uncles or friends. Sometimes I buy them. Many of my card gave me my brother. He is a marine engineer. He goes many countries for his job. When I was 11 years old he gave me like 35 phone card from different countries. But I don’t like those that’s why I threw  it in my bed. But when I came my bed I saw the beauty of one card. The card front was mother loves her children. I liked the card and started to find difference of the cards. I got a new topic to pass the time. And I started to collect the phone card. Now when I find a new card I try to find where the country in the map, their language, capital city how the people lives there, about their lifestyle, currency everything. There is different kind of phone card. Some is regular we see all time with the pin number but some phone card has the SIM card attested . Some card you can use only once but some card you can a lot of times. I have a Zimbabwean phone card which is cost 80 million dollar. When I get the card I think if I have the money I will be reach. I collect it form my cousin he told me it cost like 5 us dollar . Some phone card describe about their culture and customs. Like New Zealand phone cards are always use kiwi. Kiwi is a small bird but it is the national symbol of New Zealand. When I fell sad I lock my room and play with the cards and try to find the best one .
I have coins from 34 countries. Most of them I got from my father he had a large collection of coins. I have coins form different countries but you don’t get them in the maps, cause the countries may be existed or the change their official name. like Soviet Union , Yugoslavia, Burma  etc. Some of the countries are using the different coin like the European countries using the Euro now. The coins are made by the metal like silver, bronze, aluminum copper etc I don’t have any gold coin I wish I have . If I get a gold coin I will be very happy. Also I have some paper notes like US 2. Now I am going my to tell u one of my favorite  coin. My grandmother gave me. It is like 500 years old. When India was  under Mughal emperor . But Bangladesh was a independence state. That time the people using the silver coins . I love the coin. It has the historical value.
    I miss my cards and coins very much. I left them in Bangladesh when I came here. But next time when I go their I will bring them here.
  

Facebook


Facebook is a social network. It helps people to come closer. I spent my free time in facebook. When I came in the USA I spend my whole day in facebook. It helps to meet with the friends. It is my good friend.

Rikshaw


Rickshaw is a wonderful and romantic vehicle. It has three wheel. It has no engine. Bangladesh's capital city Dhaka is called "Rickshaw Capital of the World".



Journey in Rickshaw is very romantic because it goes too slow and you can see around. it has only two seat and a separate seat for the driver. when someone travel  in rickshaw he can feel the attraction of the nature.
Rickshaw makes a lot of traffic because it goes too slow. It kills a lot of times in our daily life.

Mohabaatein


"Mohabbatein" is a Hindi movie. In my life I like only two romantic movie. they are Titanic & Mohabbatein. When I was 14, I saw the movie first time. After that I watch this movie all most hundred times.
The movie written and directed by Aditya Chopra.The main actors are in the movie are Amitabh Bachchan & Shahrukh Khan.
The movie start with 3 different person met in rail station. They were going to a college ( Gurukul ). They meet in the night and become friend. Their principal is very strict about discipline. He picked the best students form different universities for his college and he has high expectations of them. He says that students who become romantically involved will be expelled. Unfortunately three friends fall in Love. Then they meet Raj, With flowers and a violin in his hand.  Raj wants to join Gurukul as a music teacher. When he joins the college he begins to break the rules. Raj was once also a student in Gurukul, and the girl he fell in love with was none other than the principal's  daughter, Megha. when the principal knows about their love he expelled Raj without meet with Raj . then Megha committed suicide . Raj continues to love her. Megha lives Raj's imagination and speaks to him when he is alone.

When the principal realizes that three students fall in love and Raj helps them, he wants to remove Raj form the institute. After many events the Principal realises that love and change are indeed important parts of life and softens . The colleges transformed forever into a singing, dancing and loving school.
