An Avengers Fight: As Told By Civilians
The existence of the Avengers is no longer a fairytale. They are here to protect us from the evil forces residing in the universe. We are already more or less familiar with their stories. But, what about the civilians on the sidelines who have to witness and endure the frequent chaos and destruction? These are their stories.

NO ONE IS READY FOR THIS
Sometimes, the unthinkable happens. People you thought were unshakeable in their positions stop being there, the constants in your life evaporate into variables, and you're left with a void that will remain unfulfilled.

Preparing for your first pet dog
Puppies are insatiable floof monsters who'll try to destroy anything within grasp. Therefore, you have to make your living space safe for its arrival. Take a good look around your house, especially the room your puppy will be spending the most time in, and try to identify all the items it can bite, chew, or pull down. Be especially wary of things made of leather, faux leather and PVC (mostly bags and shoes) as teething puppies love to sink their teeth into anything soft and rubbery. Objects with sharp edges and breakables should be stowed away as far as possible.

Letters of a daughter
I keep staring at the fidget spinner in my hand. It keeps me focused. I wish it kept me distracted. It's funny how people keep advising me on how to cope up with my loss, without even understanding it.

Mutual Feelings
After so many years of our marriage and some years after our kids got married, I realised one night while we were having dinner that we don't talk much like we used to. Sometimes I forget what your voice is like, until you call for me. Must be the old age.

GOD OF WAR
God of War (2018) is perhaps the most hyped up game of this generation. Irrespective of your interest in gaming, you could not have missed the praise it got over the course of last week. And after getting my hands on the game I have to say, that I agree with the sentiments of critics and fans alike. God of War will perhaps be hailed as one of the most iconic moments of the PS4's life cycle in the years to come.

Woman vs. Street
On today's episode, I shall be venturing into the streets of Dhaka to get from point A to point B. For those of you who are unaware, the streets are a battlefield. There are creatures lurking around on the streets in these parts that ogle you, leer at you, grope you, shout obscenities at you, etc. The list is truly endless. Even so, they somehow keep coming up with newer ways to distress you. My challenge today will be to walk around 4 blocks along these streets without losing my mind and keeping a straight face.

Can you really do anything you want to?
There's a prevalent narrative which states that people are capable of doing whatever they put their minds to, that following your passion is paramount to achieving your dreams. As good as it feels to be hopeful for the future and be inspired, let's step back and contemplate on this notion.

Happily, albeit, not ever after
We all need happiness, like we need oxygen, water, food, roof over our heads. But there's a fundamentally wrong understanding of happiness that's perpetuated since we're children: “happily ever after”, an all-too-familiar phrase found at the end of virtually every fairy tale.

Someone at Marvel headquarters must have taken the famous saying by Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu, “The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step”, pretty seriously. After all, who would've thought they'd reach the thousand miles in just 10 years?

Cyber Privacy - why it should matter to you
You've heard the age old adage “don't talk to strangers”, but funnily enough in the internet we end up talking a lot to strangers. In fact on the internet, information we'd formerly be conscientious about, like our daily activities that we'd probably once keep private in a diary, are now openly share without so much as a second thought. Given the massive boom in social media, and how easily we let our information be accessed, it's no surprise that data we share can be misused. And that brings us to our topic of today, cyber-privacy.
