There is only one thing people really look forward to at a wedding. No, it is not the gate dhora ceremony where everyone thinks the groom is an ATM booth. It's also not the chance to take a selfie with the lovely pair 0.00001 seconds after you've downed your food with a sip of borhani.

My phone screen has cracked and I've never felt such sadness, ever.

Deadlines are something we all face on a day-to-day basis, and while being on top of deadlines and getting things done ahead of time is what should be the norm, something I've learned from my time assigning deadlines to a group of young writers is that a large percentage of people, if not most of them, just can't do it.

Since the favourite pastime of the youth is to dine outside and with the runaway cost of questionable food, maybe it's time we can take matters into our own hands.
