History of 21st February


Today is 21st February. I cannot stop myself before expressing my feelings about the day. Even though I am an immigrant of Canada, I cannot, maybe never forget my birthplace which is Bangladesh. (I will tell about that later)


21st February was the Mother-Language Day, now it is the International Mother Language Day which gets it declaration from the UN on 17th November, 1999.


Bangladesh was ruled by Pakistan before she got her independence in 1971 and she was ruled since 1945. Before that the whole Indian subcontinent was ruled by the British. However, when erstwhile Prime Minister of Pakistan declared that the Urdu would be the only state language of the whole Pakistan, the students as well as people of all stages, such as, doctors, journalists, workers, and labours protested against the statement of the prime minister. Therefore, all these people brought out a movement breaking the Curfew on 21st February. On that day, a lot of people died by the open fire of the police. But, it was not ended, the movements and protests increased uncontrollably and Pakistan government faced tremendous problems. Finally, the government declared Bengali as the second state language after seeing no way to control.


There was also strong logic: Bengali speaking people were the majority of the whole Pakistan, and West Pakistan (Present Pakistan) has several languages beside Urdu. In addition, there was also lot of partiality in many sectors, such as, political, economical, job, industrialisational, educational sectors. Most probably, people of East Pakistan became angry from those partiality, and finally, after the declaration of the state language, it became clear to everybody. Then, first anger came from Language Movement which finally directed Bangladeshi to independence.


Thus, the 21st February has become the Mother Language Day of Bangladesh. There's another story how this Mother Language Day becomes to International Mother Language Day. Before 1999, it was celebrated by only Bangladesh. Now it is celebrated by all over the world. There's another interesting thing which is: Pakistan did not want to declare Bengali as the state language; but when this proposal was told by Bangladesh in the UN meeting, Pakistan was the first country who agreed with the proposal.

Creazy Guy



A few moments, I saw a conflict which made me so angry that I will never forget. That time, I was going home in Bus No. 1. While we were going, a person with grey-colored overcoat with long hair got up in the bus and then asked the bus driver about something maybe about going to somewhere. (We, the people asked the driver about such question before getting up the bus, but the person got up and then asked). By the time, the driver started the bus and when he was asked the question, he (the driver) answered, "If you are not sure about the bus, why did you get up the bus?" (Actually, the bus driver was old, it was 6:30 pm). Then, the gentleman became rude, and said, "Ask the question again... fucker, idiot,...Ask the question again..." Finally, that gentleman broke the glasses of the driver, and damaged the phone of the bus, and then went away...


Maybe after that the police would come to investigate the bus. Maybe they could not do anything with the men. Maybe this event would finish here.


But for the occurance, people suffered a lot in a number of ways. The drivers was harrased by that fake gentleman. We, the passenger, particularly lost time as the driver would not drive until the other bus come. There might happen more than that.


Because this kind of persons do not have sense, as they have a mind which is not rude, it is possible for them to stab or shoot people. So, the general people are still helpless even though it Canada. Did you know what one should do???

Importance of Blogging for Scientist


Blogging is a thing, which i maybe a lot of people never think about it before. I never think that it can help the scientists!!! It help us to improve our language particularly writing skills. If we blog more, we can write better, we can write faster, the more faster and deeper we can think. We can do some brainstorming by doing the bloggin. However, it can help the scientists, how can it be possible? Perhaps, it is good for all of classes people.

Scientists can get help by blogging. Scientists research for different purposes. They also maintain dairy. Whenever they get something, they write in their dairy. They also brainstorm something; for which, they use dairy. They do a lot of activities, which they keep record. When they find their desired things or results, they go to the patent office to disclose their discoveries. Sometimes, it happens that scientist have discovered something before other person, but somehow, he could not patent his name with discoveries. And the scientist could not do anything to get the credit for the discovery. I heard several stories about this kind of things.

Once two scientists were working on certian purpose, maybe to discover something about telecommunication in US. They both were working in the same city. They were working for years. Finally, they discovered the machine. After discovering, one of they say to other, "Let's go to the patent office." Then, the other scientist said, "Ok! we will meet in front of the patent office togather."

Finally, one scientists (let, named Mr Y) had reached and was waiting for the other scientist (let named Mr X). After waiting for about one hour Mr X had come out from the office. Then, Mr Y said, "Hey! Where were you? I am waiting for so long." Mr X replied, "I can't recognize you. Who are you?"
- You don't know me? You can't remember, we both work togather for the research
- What the hale are you talking about? I don't have time. Go away!!
Mr Y understood something wrong. Then, instead of talking with Mr X, he went inside the office and asked the officer about the last registration of a machine. He answered that the machine has already been patented by the name of Mr X. Now, he realized that Mr X reached before him about 5 minutes. He was depressed that even though he had done work on the machine, he did not get credit for discovereing.
So, I think it is important for scientist to maintain blogging. Because it is an open dairy which everybody can read, and the patent office cannot take paper on undiscovered things, a scientist just by blogging his though do his work. Therefore, it will be secured and they don't have to go through Mr Y.

Why?


... Why am I hated by male persons? Why I am in the court? Why is my fate is so worse?...

What's going on? When I was young, I was liked by everybody except my elder brother, dad. They did not look after me very well.

When I grew up, I was studying Grade 12, parents became busy about my marriage. At first, it was funny. My parents were looking for a person that fit for me. Oneday, they found the photo of a 23-years old handsome, good-looking person. He was a mechanical engineer and lived in Canada and was doing a professional job. After hearing the news of such person, my parents could not stop themselves... Anyways, the marriage happened. My school was stopped. After my marriage, I came to Canada.

I was living with my husband in peace. He had a sense of humour. So, the time passed very well. I felt my parents, but not too much because of my husband. I went to visit a lot of place. Really, I didn't think that Canada is so beautiful country even though it is cold country. It looks different in summer and winter. But, both scenes are so nice that I cannot forget it. My time was passing very well. All of a sudden, my contented life stopped and I entered in a saddy life. But ... why?

It was the terrible accident of my husband which robbed his life from me. I became alone. But, he left a thing as a memory, which is my only daughter. So, I have a lot of responsibility. I started going school to study again. By this time, I met an international student who was studying chemical engineering in the UofC. I felt pity for him as he came from a foreign country and was paying high tuition fee. So, he proposed me to marry because if he could get the immigrantship, he would not have to face this economic problem. I also did so. I thought it would be well as my daughter liked him. Then, I agreed to marry him.

After that, I was living with him. He was studying, and I finished my schooling and started working. The first year, I paid his tuition fees. After one year, he got the immigrationship.

Then, he started beating me. Sometimes, he was drunk. He was so rude none can imagine. His face was changed... Oh! that's terrible. I can't say that anymore. I don't know why?

Finally, I came to court for solution.

I don't know why my life is like that? Why cannot I be happy? Why?
