The meaning of 'enemy' in terms of the essay "Shooting an elephant" means a hostile group of people.
This story dates back to the time when the anti-European feeling was extremely strong among the Burmese,as they were oppressed by the British.George Orwell even though being a white man himself had a sincere hatred for the British imperialism,deep down inside he did not hate the Burmese but was was humiliated by them time to time which made him feel insecure around them,but somewhere he knew his real enemy was the 'British ego' which forced him shoot the elephant otherwise he would have made a fool of himself amidst the natives of Burma which he certainly didnt wanted to happen.

Arghhhhhhh.....rafting!!
The so not awaited day of my summer vacations finally came. I was going rafting with my family and was not very thrilled about it,but my dad somehow convinced me,that the trip won't be a boring one as he knew all about rafting.
The river sparkled like stars as the Sun shone on it.I went in the water wearing my life jacket but it got drenched which was adequate to make me more furious.My father showed us a few techniques regarding rafting after which we we munched on some scrumptious snacks which my mom made of course:p along with drinks.The day turned out to be fine but I still think I could have spent it doing something much much better=)
