your expression comes through much better in Urdu...In English the story is not half as true.
In the nearest language, it always works.

enjoyed the urdu version wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy moree ...

I think the experience is extremely powerful and relatively expression quite weak. (Sorry for sounding blasphemous!!)

I`ll echo temporal`s advice: ``not much has been written over this subject...please continue writing ``

I thought it would be about how ugly and hilarious is the sight after the ruination of make-up by hysterical bouts of crying or abrupt rain... Utter disappointment!
