Ramzan Mubarak

Wish you a very blessed Ramadan Mubarak. May Allah bless you and your loved ones in this holy month from His gracious love and kindness by listening and accepting all your prayers and the doors of heaven be open for you and door of Hell be closed as He promised (Ameen).

Ouch, ouch, oooouchh!!!

Why o why does it have to be a nail injury???? :s
I mean of all the things that could go wrong, of all the ways a guy could get hurt, why does it have to be a nail injury :(
I injured my right hand index finger nail and half of it was separated from the skin (I know it even pains to write and read this, imagine how it feels to experience it :( ). I have this big white bandage on my finger and it is paining a lot :( . Plus I'm typing funny because I'm not using my index finger and whenever by mistake I hit the keyboard with it, I press 3-4 keys at a time and my finger starts to hurt more.
I don't know whats up with my health, first the flu and now this. And although the flu has gone but I still have a bad throat and well... I pray that no one ever gets their nails injured and ever gets their throat as sore as mine, EVER (ameen)
Please pray for me friends, I am always in need of prayers.
Keep smiling and keep blogging :)

Prayers needed

Lots of prayers needed, I'm down with an extremely bad flu, my throat hurts like anything and I'm sneezing faster than you can say atishoooo :P

Advice on medicine and home made cures is welcome (have tried chicken soup and joshanda, doesn't work :s )

Pakistan Zindabad

We are privileged to live in a free country and should never forget this. May Allah bless Pakistan and all its people. A very Happy Independence Day to all of you.

PAKISTAN ZINDABAD :)

Post...

I sit here, staring at the blue and white screen. I look at the calendar on the computer table, i re-read the poem "A Day Dream" by Emily Bronte written on the August page. I take a look at the headphones, the bluetooth device, the blue light of the mouse and then I look back at the screen, nothing to write, nothing to tell.

It rained a LOT here on Thursday and Friday. whenever it rains in Karachi, a lot of destruction happens, people die, houses are flooded with water and life is greatly affected. I have always enjoyed rain, I have always been the one to go out in the rain when everyone would just stay back under the shade. I LOVE the rain and I hate it when people blame the rain for this destruction. I think it is the planning, the roads, the management that has gone wrong. Rain is a blessing and it will always remain to be. Rain is one thing that always brings a smile to my face, that always makes me happy, relaxed, calm. Don't you just love the sound of rain drops falling, the smell of earth when it rains, the feeling that time stops when it rains, its simply magical :)

On Thursday, I walked a LOT to get home since the roads were flooded and transport closed down due to the water. I walked in knee deep water and it really was something. Although the cold water sparked the pain in my leg but it was fun, it was so dark and quiet at 9 that night that it seemed like midnight. It was so much fun walking home in the downpour with no one around :)

I went to the Airport today with my colleague to pick his brother. Airports are such an odd place. You really see emotions in effect over there. You see a mother crying, who has seen her son after a long time, you see tears in the son's eyes. You see everyone looking like they would cry any moment. You see people saying goodbyes to their loved ones. You see people beaming with happiness on returning to their loved ones, to their home country. It always is such an experience.

Independence Day is just around the corner. I remember the old days, when I would put up jhandiyaan on my house, wear a pakistani flag shaped badge to school, dressed in white with a green shawl-kinda-thingy. We would sing national songs like jeevay jeevay pakistan, yeh watan tumhara hai, maoon ki dua and the likes. I think it was class five or maybe six but as we grow up, 14 August is just an excuse to wake up late, to enjoy another holiday, maybe people would take a leave on Monday so that they have a longer weekend. Life has become so predictable, so monotonous. Anyways, in case I am not able to post on Tuesday, a very happy Independence Day to all of you, they said we won't even survive a week and here we complete SIXTY years. It wasnt possible without each one of us, the people, PAKISTANIS :)

Take care all fo you, keep smiling and keep blogging :)

Happy Friendship Day :)

Alone I can only speak
But together we can talk
Alone I can only smile
But together we can laugh
Alone I can only breathe
But together we can live

HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY

Keep blogging and keep smiling my friends :)

To blog or not to blog...

That really has been the question for the past few months. I sit in front of my PC thinking what to write, thinking what to share, thinking and just thinking... and nothing seems to come up and I logout. It has ben so long since I posted or commented on any of the blogs until recently when I finally had some time on my hands.

I cleared all the papers that I mentioned about in my last post. Thank you, all of you who prayed for me, it was only possible through prayers because God knows how well prepared I was. I was actually surprised at clearing my exams, it was nothing short of a miracle. Thank you soo much :)

Life has been really really busy or maybe I've engulfed myself in to it so much that I dont seem to get time for anything. This post is just another one filled with boredom. I think I've lost my ability to blog (if I ever had it). Anyways, this post is dedicated to a fellow blogger. I've posted in tihs week as promised :)

And now I come to the end of this post. I know this one was a really short and meaningless post but thats how it is.

For all the busy people out there:

Sheher ki iss daur mein daur ke karna kya hai
Agar yahi jeena hain doston, to phir marna kya hai
Pehli barish mein train late honay ki fikar hai
Bhool gaye, bheegtay huay tehelna kya hai
Serial kay kirdaron ka saara haal hai maloom
Par Maa ka haal poochhne ki fursat kahan hai
Ab reth mein nangay paon teheltay kyon nahin
Ek sau aath hain channel par dil beheltay kyon nahi
Internet pay duniye se to touch mein hain
Lekin paros mein kaun rehta hain jantay tak nahin
Mobile, landline, sab ki bharmar hai
Lekin jigri dost tak pahunche aisay taar kahan hai
Kab doobte huye sooraj ko dekha tha, yaad hai
Kab jaana tha shaam ka guzarna kya hai
To doston, shahr ki iss daur mein daur kar karna kya hai
Agar yahi jeena hai, to phir marna kya hai?

Keep smiling friends and keep blogging :)

PS: I read Harry Potter 7 and I'm so anxious to put up spoilers on my blog :P
