Bad Blood by John Carreyrou

Bad Blood by John Carreyrou

I am really astonished by this book. How a stupid college graduate fooled the a lot of wealthy and educated people. It seems really ironic. If this book is true about the people and events it's been written then I must say this would be my first time seeing a beautiful but treacherous villain. I always thought those of kind liar and deceptive people only exist in movies. But this Prinston dropout fooled the whole world almost a decade.

When you keep reading it, it makes you hate the central characters of the book which are Elizebeth Holmes and Sunny her Old, arrogant and condescending jackass boyfriend. It is literally very much frustrating seeing how she always gets away with her lies and deceptions. In the beginning no problem she might have thought she would be able to build that kind of a sophisticated device, but after ten years she must have realized she is kidding herself and wasting millions of dollars of investors. However she kept going. It is obvious that she has lost her conscious in the process of becoming rich. I never hated any character this much and weirdly this character is real and very much alive, breathing right now. It may take some time, in her case a lot of time but eventually the truth prevails. After a decade of lying, her lie finally caught up and she lost everything plus her reputation and dignity if only she had any.

I think this was of the best non fictions I have ever read. It was incredible, I believe. You will definitely enjoy the book especially during reading when you keep searching about facts given in the book on google. It's all there and some of the characters which were Theranos employees or Ex-employee to be correct.

Best of Luck.
Enjoy

And Yet the Life Goes On

And Yet the Life Goes On I have been meaning to write for the last couple of months, but I never got the chance to do so. there is a lot of stuff I want to write about and I honestly do not know where to begin. Nevertheless, I am going to have to begin from somewhere, so here it is: In the last five months while I was working for Save the Children International, a lot of things happened. I got to meet with a lot of good and useful people; I had so much fun working with the FSL team in Andkhoy District of Faryab Province; I found so many good friends; I earned some money and I saved some for my higher education; I fell in love with a beautiful girl and got my heart broken by her; I traveled a lot and got to visit places that I had never before; I learned a lot of things from my supervisor M Alem Abrar, the kindest and the sweetest person in the world and at the end, I left it before even my contract was over. Now I am with International Medical Corps in a new city far away from home. I

Last days with International Medical Corps-Afghanistan

Last days with International Medical Corps-Afghanistan So, these are my last days with IMC-Afghanistan. I joined IMC, at the beginning of July-2022. And I had intended to stay, at least for a year. However, turns out I was not going to stay in Sar-e-Pul city for long; fate had something different for me. I was able to be accepted into World Vision International-Afghanistan, as a Monitoring and Evaluation Officer in my own home city. The written test for the position was, like two months ago. I don't know why they took so much time to conduct their interviews. Since I was not able to attend the interview in person, I requested them if they would take my interview through Skype, and luckily they agreed. My interview went well, you know, like not really well, but well enough. It seemed that my co-applicants' were not as good as mine. A day after my interview I received a call from WVI-Afghanistan country office in Herat city. The guy, who introduced himself as HR Officer, told m

I am Still Here

Frankly, I never thought I would be in Afghanistan even after three years of college graduation. By now I thought I'd be somewhere far off but sadly I am still here. I am not sure when I'd be able to leave. I am afraid if I stayed here for long I might not wanna leave. Plus I am getting older by each year. There is the matter of marriage also. I am not sure how much longer I can keep postponing it. I am not worried so much about the marriage though, still, it seems like I should start thinking about it. But then again marriage can wait but education can't. I am thinking of starting my higher education online. With the Taliban and their unpredictable rules, getting a passport to travel abroad is not guaranteed. So online education is my only way forward. I am thinking of settling down here; if only I could find the right person. Marriage is a very tricky business, there is no margin for error. For now, I can start my online studies and after a year or two when I am close
