Fashion Faux Pas

By Nissi Thapa, a student at Bishop Cottons

What is it that makes us so judgy about fashion?? Well, I don't know about others, but I am. I may not be a fashionista myself, but I can surely tell apart what looks good on me and what doesn't. I mean,that's what a mirror is for,isn't it??
       Well,I'm not speaking here to scrutinize every other clothing piece that I see,but that being said,just make sure that it doesn't prove to be a pain in the eye. I mean,what' up with all the blinding colours? When you first turn up, your first impression is made by what you wear. For instance, look at This:

Walking through the unknown

By Rashika Joshi, an engineering student at KEC

Yesterday, at midnight, when I was totally lost in my thoughts, looking at the beautiful sight of moon, my mobile beeped. With much curiosity I checked it. Reading the text was totally different from what I was expecting it to be. There was something written there that I wasn't expecting. I know the person that sent it pretty well (you can call him..... Mr.X). It was just a simple text actually, just "thanks for today, let’s go for a walk". I don't know why, but doing it again, I mean going on a walk again (I have gone before as well, as I enjoy walking at night), wasn't the thing I was willing to do now. It’s always fun to walk around, walk a totally new path, and explore something new. But going with him again, hmm… I needed lots of strength. Anyway, somehow keeping my thoughts aside, I went. Seeing his face always charms me, and for some weird reason, blood races under my cheek changing it to a light pink. We met, just for a walk as he had said it would be. We walked without exchanging a single word (don't know why, but his silence also tells me a lot of things). After walking for a few minutes he got a call and he went on his way. I was there, alone, with my feelings, continuing to walk….. to walk on a path I have never walked.

The Unsaid Stories

By Milan Hadkale, a student at KEC

I remember one of my friends being so very crazy about one American singer. I remember him sending texts wishing her the birthday. Of course, the message never went to the singer, but he never stopped doing that. And there would be some weird tweets on his profile page of his twitter account, something very cheesy about him. He would later deny writing all those stuffs, but I have seen those tweets. I categorize them as the ones that really speak of fondness.

Perhaps that is what we call an obsession, or pardon me if I am wrong. The star remains Selena Gomez. And the friend of mine remains as obsessed of her as he was during the high school. He never will be more than a crazy fan and she never will be less than a diva, but there is this amazing thing he always tells me, ‘She’s amazing.’ And today I think, perhaps world still is a place where affection strives ignorant of the achievement. An honest affection which has no needs.

The girl of my dreams

By Sajag Acharya, an engineering student at KEC



I was going to school, lost deep in my thoughts, when suddenly I heard a familiar voice calling me from afar. As I turned, I saw her running towards me, with those gorgeous eyes and that beautiful smile. It was Karen, the girl I had a crush on since I saw her that first day of school.
“So you didn’t wait for me today.”
I was taken aback. How did I not remember to wait for her today?
 “Must have slipped my mind. I have a lot going on in my head right now.”
“Really? Why don’t you mind telling me what’s going on in that brilliant head of yours.”
The problem was that I couldn’t. Even though we shared everything, as she is my best friend (I’ll tell you about it later) and she knew every deep dark secret about me, she didn’t know the one simple fact that I was in love with her. I simply couldn’t tell her that I was thinking how I would tell her I loved her.
“Nothing you could guess!” I replied.
She had her game face on. She knew everything about me (well… almost everything) and started guessing like there was no tomorrow.
