My Diary: Guitar

Image
Once upon a time, I had a green guitar. I used to play and sing my own song every evening. On this time, I used to study Bachelor of Arts in Shahzadpur Government College. There was a song contest going in the college, some of my classmates recommend me to took part of the contest. I participated and I got the third prize for my song. The song I sang, it was about my country which was written by me. It was the first award in my life. Once I concentrated on drawing cartoon, then I stopped singing. Anyway, Now I have a new black guitar. I have some stories, no one knows, except the best friend. I have some hobbies, no one knows, except the best friend. Arifur Rahman 14.04.2017 Drøbak

My Diary: Freedom of Expression

The word 'Freedom of Speech or Expression' defined itself what is the meaning of it and what is it stand for. But I would like to share my thought with my own expression. From my point of view, Freedom of Speech / Expression is a basic human right. This is a freedom to express the opinion in any form in any media being without force or sensor.

Freedom of Speech or Expression is not just a written word which we just read and forget after that. It is the thing to understanding the value of Freedom of Speech and keeps establishing by practicing. In some countries value of Freedom of Speech doesn't exist. At the s

My Diary: Making Mistake

Actually, I want to spend my life to do something for arts and humanity. I know very well that I am not perfect. Nothing is perfect, nor my language or arts nor me. But I try my best. Though the earth was always tough for me. No one of us is skilled or learned by born, we are all doing and learning. I know that I can do lots of mistakes if I try to do something new, I also know that I can also do my best job if I try, that is why I am not afraid to making some small mistakes. If I am always afraid to making mistakes then I can never start, it's mean I can never achieve the goal of my life. About making mistake, I think if I make any mistakes and  I realize or somebody mentions it, then I can find the solution to fix it. I also think that if I make a mistake then I am the person who can correct it. Here is my definition of the mistake:  The mistake is a result of happened event or incident which is wrong, which we did or made by being misunderstood, accidentally or unconscious

Tagging

Tagging is the free and easy method of getting people's attention on Facebook. However, it can sometimes be annoying to some. It somehow force people to like a post or comment on it. I personally would never force anyone to like my status or photo and do not intend to force anyone to do so. I believe that if someone really does care about me and has enough time, they would take a look at my Facebook activities automatically. Lets use Facebook with peace and happy facebooking.
