Contrary to the general belief, spoilers not only ruin the story; but also make you enjoy it even more. According to research by UC San Diego psychology professor, Nicholas Christenfeld, spoilers enhance the enjoyment in the process of reading fiction. In his experiment, two group of readers were chosen to read short stories from various genres. One group read the story and rated how much they liked it at the end. The researchers, however, spoiled the narrative by giving a short introduction, as if by accident for the other group. The results showed that if they spoil the stories, the readers actually enjoy them more. Christenfeld came to the conclusion that some familiarity with a work of art enables the reader to understand and enjoy it more. advanced writing...

My first memory dates back to when I was only 2 years old. I am not going to talk about it. Not because it is a long story and you may not find it intriguing, but it is due to the fact it's an embarrassing story. When I was 4 years old, I imagined that I was an angel. How I came up with the idea is still a mystery to me. I never played with other kids because as a 4 year old angel I strongly believed that angels are superior to human beings. What an arrogant little monster I was! Little by little I got accustomed to life and I forgot "me, being an angel". Now, when I come to think about it, I think what I must seek in life is my true self. I have lost my roots and I need to rebound to "me". advanced writing...

She has tued her head and is gazing at you (or the painter) with those wide eyes of her. The most eye-catching element in this portrait is the turban she is wearing. Unlike today, it was typical of Dutch women to wear such turbans in the 17th century.
You can't tell what her eyes indicate. Is she stued, terrified, or just relaxed? Her pearl earing is glowing in contrast with the black background. Her mouth is partly parted. As if she wanted to say something, but haphazardly changed her mind and stayed silent.

When I was about eight years old, I wrote poems. Well, not a literary piece of art; but something by which I could express my feelings. That was when I said to myself :" You should study literature at college."
I was not a social kid and when I failed to communicate orally, I would pick up a pen and write a poem expressing how I actually felt. I could be sitting on my bed with a book in my hands and travel back in time, and to places I could have never been. My imagination with the help of literature would take me beyond reality. And that's why I am in love with literature.
