Heya!
I've been busy lately... no, not ''busy-for-you-only'' busy, really busy... I had my exams in December and then my cousin sister (who's by the way my friend too) was getting married and then this New Year hullabaloo, which reminds me to say ''Happy New Year'' :)
Anyways... My life has come to a junction, from here I've to choose which way I want to go... I've options but little or almost no motivation... :(
You know I started reading newspaper when I was in school... reading was fun to me from long back when I was teenager and I used to read anything that used to come by my way... I found out people boast a lot about reading newspaper so I took the newspaper in my hand and I was like... from where should I begin?!? and then I turned it over and there it was... ''the last page''... I, then on, used to read it like that only... I'll pick newspaper paper and I'll read 1st page and then I'll jump to last page and read it from backwards on...
I don't know why I kept doing it, may be if you turn one page from the last page of newspaper it brings that comic section which I used to like :P or maybe because when I finish reading the 2nd page (which by the way was last page in my sequence) or the 3rd page (in some newspapers) I used to get so exhausted that I wouldn't be able to read any more... it used to be filled with the editorials which I used to read with all my might... :P
I never learned how to use a newspaper... I am not saying about reading it, because I had discovered my own way of it, I mean I don't know how to utilise reading newspaper... People would always say, ''reading newspaper is so beneficial'' and ''everyone should read newspaper'' and I am not saying that I don't like reading it, I do, but I don't find it different from any other book or magazine that I read... I guess I undermine the importance of ''news'' itself instead of undermining the whole of newspaper, or may be people over-rate this whole ''newspaper-reading-habit-is-a-must'' thing...
Maybe it is because I pay much attention to the literary section of the newspaper. It's not like I don't read news at all, but I mostly read the heading and if it interests me I go for details... no doubt once in a blue moon when something related to medicine or literature comes I read it word by word and pay attention to it... sometimes I read general news if the heading is catchy... I met Malala Yousafzai there, I met Paulo Coelho there and many more... I remember that section of ''Dainik Bhasker'' where Zahida Hina's article used to publish... it was one of my favourites... the ''Ras rang'' and ''Nav rang'' supplements... I used to love them... those ''Times of India Crest editions'' they used to come once a week and they were full of pages with mesmerising articles... And off course ''The Hindu''... by far, my favourite most...
Ah!! I've been saying this to everybody and everyone and I wrote this here too... ''What's the reason we read newspaper for?'' and ''what's so great about this read-newspaper-daily thing'' and ''why a newspaper different from any other book or magazine''... I guess I discovered it myself now... A book or a magazine has it's own style and genre but newspaper has it all, it belongs to everyone... I think newspaper is like a magazine or a book that is meant for everyone and it holds things which interest everybody... you just have to dig in and find your own way out :)
