MY HAIR CUTS I always had my hair cut short till A/Ls . Because my parents wanted it that way but I preferred long hair . For I thought that short haired girls are ugly. Sometimes after cutting my hair short I felt so uncomfortable when I saw looked in the mirror. After leaving school I let my hair grow a little longer. As I am at home now, I didn't cut my hair because I don't have to braid my hair as a school girl. But now I came to the conclusion that longer hair is rather difficult. And my friends say shorter hair is more suitable for me. But I think I look much nicer with long hair. Now I wear my hair as a bun. because it's more comfortable.😇

MY FAVORITE MUSIC COMPORSER George Gershwin was an American pianist and composer. He was one of the most popular composes of the 19th century, and one of history's greatest song writers. He was born in 1898. I like his compositions because his songs are marked by uncommon harmonies and he was one of the first to introduce into popular song, the rhythm and melodic twists of jazz. Among his best known songs are 'The man I love' , 'I got rhythm' and ' some one to watch over me' and his other compositions are Rhapsody in blue , Porgy and Bess , An American in Paris. Among these my favorite is 'Rhapsody in blue' in 1924 . it is for piano and jazz band. His compositions in the idioms of jazz and popular m...
