Amazing Race asia in Bangladesh

One of the world's top rated reality game show the amazing race asia visited Bangladesh a few days before. I didn't know. I searched for the episode at google and finally in a benglali blogsite I found it.
Points to be noted:

• Here one of the busy part of Bangladesh is shown for the purpose of shooting the episode, so if anyone thinks that it's the face of the whole Bangladesh, he has done a great mistake.
• It's the life of the poor day-laborer that is shown on this video.
• The river shown here is named Buriganga.
• Dhaka is on the bank of Buriganga.

Enjoy the episode here from YOUTUBE

I just never can take excess pressure, most Bangladeshis are different in this context. Tomorrow it was my physiology term final examination. But I decided to skip it. It's a very hard decision for me. I worked so hard for this exam but now I just can't hold water.
Why this happened?
The preparation for the exam was very nice. It would be better because I just studied two whole card for exam. So, it was my right to gain good numbers. But, instead, I'm skipping it! WOW! I got one day off but didnt study 1st,2nd night and the intervening day. Now today at the 12th hour I started studying. That's why it has become harder. I could do it, but my bad my fate someone made it hard. Misfortune just destroyed me. In every spheres of my life. I can't event stand strong and still.
I'm feeling so sad.
I'm feeling alone.

Few minutes ago, I dream my younger brother Nasif. I just missing him so much.
