Although interrupted by a power failure during the middle of their performance, the choir’s professionalism and maturity shone through, and they carried on.

True Lovers’ Story :- Once upon a time there were two lovers. They loved each other very much but the girlfriend was blind in both eyes. She hated all people of the earth except her boyfriend. She used to say to her boyfriend that if she was able to see, she would only care for him and marry him. After some years, a kind hearted man donated an eye to the girl. When she was able to see her boyfriend, he came to her and asked her to marry him. Upon seeing that her boyfriend was blind in one eye, the girlfriend told him clearly that she would not marry him. The boyfriend simply walked away saying, “Take care of my eye.”
