What does a true Brit bite?

By
By Vidya Venkat Those rallying for British nationalism and a concomitant Brexit are forgetting that 'British culture' today is a nebulous idea. If people are what they eat, then there could be nothing uniquely ‘British’ about the Brits. When the news of the Brexit vote started coming in on Friday, June 24, my mind instantly went back to an ethnographic study of the popular UK supermarket chain Sainsbury’s, which I had done five years ago as a student of anthropology in London. Source: Wikipedia Bronisław Malinowski, a 20th-Century anthropologist, argued that culture functioned to meet the needs of individuals rather than society as a whole. Meaning, in an age of globalisation following a history of colonial cross-assimilation, Britain can hardly have an 'authentic culture'. In the study, I had set out to decode the Malinowskian “imponderabilia of everyday life” of the average British citizen. Bronislaw Malinowski, the father figure of British social anthr...

A walk to remember- Another wonderful movie

By
Tonight I have watched another wonderful movie- "A walk to remember". Its basically a love story between Jammie and Landon, not like 500 days of Summer . Its a simple and cool romantic movie to watch with no adult material. I can say its one of the clean movie of Hollywood i have ever seen in my life. The plot starts with a handsome,fun-loving, popular but irresponsible guy Landon who just lives school life with lots of adult stuff (not shown in the movie but you will understand it after watching this movie). In this school, there is a simple,beautiful and responsible girl Jammie who is very intelligent in her all stuffs (drama, science etc.). She used to stay simple due to which others make a fun of her all the time including Landon.    by    thelittleone417   Due to one of his ragging stuff , Head of School orders Landon to either leave the school or teach fellow students and participating in school's play. Now things come close between Landon and Jammie as sh...

पर्सनाल्टी डेवलपमेंट करने के तरीके क्या है?

By
पर्सनाल्टी डेवलपमेंट आज के समय मै हमारे जीवन का एक अविभाज्य भाग हो गया है। आप कितने भी होशियार हो कितने भी बुद्धिमान हो पर आपके पास आपकी छवि यानी पर्सनालिटी ना हो , तो आप ना के बराबर हो सकते हैं। पर्सनैलिटी डेवलपमेंट यानी खुद पर भरोसा होना चाहिए खुद आत्मनिर्भर होना चाहिए इसे हम सेल्फ कॉन्फिडेंस भी कहते हैं। और मैं आपको सिर्फ कुछ टिप्स बता सकता हूं जिससे आप आपकी पर्सनैलिटी डिवेलप कर सकते हैं जो कुछ इस तरह से है। हमेशा स्मार्ट तरीके से सोचना सीखें और कूल रहें। हमेशा यूनीक सोचने का प्रयास कीजिए। किसी की कभी भी नकल मत करो अर्थात कॉपी। अपनी व्यक्तिगत शैली बनाएं। अपने आप पर संदेह न करें। एक सक्रिय श्रोता बनें इसके लिए हररोज ५ मिनिट मिरर के पास खड़े होकर बोलने का प्रयास कीजिए। धैर्य रखना सीखें और अपने संचार कौशल पर ध्यान केंद्रित करें। पोशाक में कार्यकारी बने ज्यादा चमकदार कपड़े न पहनें सिंपल सा रखें। लीडर बनने की कोशिश कीजिए, आप नहीं होगे तब भी। खुद को पहचाने ने कि कोशिश कीजिए। हमेशा गंभीर मत रहिए, हसा भी कर दीजिए।😅 पर्सनैलिटी आपके दुबले शरीर से नहीं तो आपके खूबियों से होती है आपके विच...
