DEATHNOTE [Anime Series] Review   Well I am not at all an anime fan… to be very honest haven’t watched anime anytime till now. While surfing just got to know about the Deathnote anime series. Have already watched the movie;  but anime is something way different.  There is something about anime I suppose..   If you like it you will like it all, but if you don’t you will never. Keeping this in mind I wanted my 1 st dive into anime to be special. So doing some research from anime lovers & checking online polls I finally decided to watch Deathnote anime series. I’m going to give my honest opinion here. Death Note is one of those shows that have a great plot but everything else seems going a bit haywire later. Death Note definitely had the potential to be one of the best anime series & it proves to be one only in the initial episodes. When I first watched Death Note, I was hooked. The first few episodes (I think everyone will agree) were brilliant. T...

                           Depression is Devastating Some people understand it;  some think I just want ATTENTION. It all started back in school with constant bullying & teasing. For an introvert kid, which I was back then… it was too much to take in. I used to try to figure out what the problem is.  Is it I who is crazy or too dumb wanting to have a quiet time or is it my schoolmates who are just going crazy & having a good time making fun of me? Struggling with these questions somehow, I managed to survive my primary school. I had thought something would change in secondary school; maybe puberty could work its magic! However, nothing of that happened. I was again the same. I always thought what is this feeling.. Why do I feel sad? Why do I cry even if I am not physically hurt... I was not just able to figure that out.  Why is it only me? What is wrong in it if I prefer taking a walk instead of...
