Yesterday, I was waiting in line to get this year’s flu shot at my work. Two women ahead in the line were loudly expressing their personal opinions about other people they knew, what movies and movie stars they liked etc. It was quite annoying. Afterward many others started their own conversations in their little groups as the line grew. Finally, it became a marketplace where only few people were quiet. I didn’t like it but then again I was thinking I might have done the same thing if I had a friend with me. I guess generally people are chatty; some more than others. However, some people can be outright obnoxious and just ignore everyone around them to continue their loud boring conversation…

মাততে পারেনি
যদিও শব্দটার অর্থ জানাছিল তবুও সিলেটী ভাইয়েরা যখন নিজেদের ভাষায় কথা বলেন তখন দুর্বোধ্য শোনায়। তাই যখন আমি আমার ছেলেকে আরবি পড়ার শেষে মসজিদ থেকে আনার সময় অন্য একজন অবিভাবক জিজ্ঞেস করলেন 'মাততে পারেনি' আমি বুঝতে পারিনি। দ্বিতীয়বার যখন বললেন 'ছেলে বাংলায় মাততে পারেনি'।...

We (my parents, two brothers with their families and I with my family) went on a family vacation in upstate (Peck’s Lake) NY this year. My only sister and her family live a few thousand miles away from us, so she couldn’t join us this year. The vacation house was...
My Ordinary Life
In my personal life there is everything present for me to be happy. I am happy somewhat but I don’t feel satisfied. My existence doesn’t mean much outside of my family. If I die today I will be forgotten very fast. This world will not miss anything because of my...
Social media
I have some friends who don’t like Facebook or twitter (may be they even hate it). I told them to join several times but they avoided by giving many excuses. I think social media makes communication easier. I only have their phone numbers but sometimes I don’t want to...
মানুষের মন
বাবার আমেরিকাতে থাকার সুবাদে জানতাম একদিন আমিও আমেরিকাতে আসব। আর আসার কিছুদিন পূর্ব থেকেই স্বপ্ন দেখতে শুরু করি। স্বপ্নগুলো ছিল এমন যে – আমি লিফটে করে অনেক উঁচু বিল্ডিংএ উঠে যাচ্ছি। ইউএসএ আসার পরে অমন অনেক উঁচু বিল্ডিংএ উঠেছি। এমনকি চাকরির সুবাদে ট্রেনিয়ের জন্য যখন...
