Most of the people fear that whether it will make any non-sense if we speak English in front of another.This is an inferiority complex only.


Acute self-consciousness mainly arising out poor grammar and unsure vocabulary base gives rise to such a complex!

As long the soup is mine, bread is mine and no one is watching me, who cares about the etiquette or rule-books. Yes if I am in a big party, may look around before doing any thing like this. But one thing is for sure I will never ROLL in the soup.

That is right, the application I wrote was too heavy due to the load of my degrees those I hold, therefore I am unable to lift it. I am not powerful enough to lift even my own set of degrees. I am this way since my childhood. I was only 4kg while I was born. :(
