Hello Ashraf,

in CouchDB doesn't exist the concept of table or entity, as you can find in the 
entity relational model. Everything is a document in CouchDB, that means both 
student and message are documents. Here you have two different document types: 
student and message. So, in your model, you have to add a new property called 
'type' to distinguish between a student and a message.
You don't need to GET the student, you just need to store a new document to 
save your message for him.

Here the student document structure:

        _id
        _rev
        type: 'student'
        name
        age

Here the message document structure:

        _id
        _rev
        type: 'message'
        senderId
        recipientId
        title
        body

I think you can understand the meaning of each property yourself.
