It's 1AM again!

Interesting point DaYaz pointed out the other day that i only post at like 1am... (or close to it).. hmm..seems its the only time i get on to the pc to mes around... anyways.. oh yeah.. before i forget (yet one more time) please go back and look at the comments for the post on April 18...Reason i say that is cuz i put something down which came out hugely wrong and I juss wanted to straighten things out...

I juss finished scannin' pictures of my bro's convocation (which incidentally was held in january i think) cuz my cousins in Pakistan had been dyin' to see 'em. First time i saw my pics with short hair and i have to admit i didnt know i looked this way, even though i see my ugly mug in the mirror everyday, but i looked soo different in the pics i couldnt believe it. Hmmm.. But now i'm seriously considering lettin' my hair grow back.. liked it better that way.

Oh was talkin' to this guy about marriage today... well actually he brought it up.. and here's how the conversations went from there

Him: when you gettin' married...
Me no time soon..
Him why not..
Me I aint ready, from the looks of it probably wont be for another 10 years and am in no rush...
Him If you find the right person you're ideas will change... you'll wanna get married then and there
Me I aint looki'n so i wont find no one.. and even if something like that did come up.. i am not ready for it and its not something high on my priority list right now
Him But man it's Sunnah.. how can you not wanna marry... (then he went on about how I should contribute to the growth of the Ummah)
Me Dude... You and i both probably dont even fulfill the Faraidh properly.. why should we be thinking about Sunnahs??
Him Everything comes together in time...

Grrrrr... Why do people do that... I mean thass the reason the Ummah is in such a state.. people (like me) who cant concentrate on the Faraidh and juss make up excuses to do the stuff they wanna do... When will we learn... I mean seriously i look at converts who have grown up in (mostly) non-Muslim societies and their Iman is sooo much stronger than mine. Why?? I am a born Muslim.. raised in a Muslim household (to practicing parents Alhamdulillah) in a Muslim country till i was old enough to know my responsibilities.. and yet i'm still lacking... May Allah guide me and all those like me to become better Muslims and may he ease the pain and suffering of all our brothers and sisters around the world.

Shoot to thrill So I just finished watching Inception (yes I know I am only a year or so behind the times). I took the plunge today with a full understanding (or so I thought) of the concept of the movie and what to expect. Oh Em Geeee... was I in for a shock and such an excellent one at that. A brilliantly executed idea and thankfully, for once, an original one. I have to say I cant remember the last time I watched a movie which wasnt a sequel, prequel, reboot or connected to some other movie idea/concept in some way, shape, form or aspect. Yes it can be argued it goes into the augmented reality side of things which has been used many times before but this is a very refreshing take on the genre. I like how the movie asked or answered questions that were popping into my head as I watched the movie (yes even though I do prefer the no brainer movies, but I do like to keep an inquisitive mind). One thing I couldnt believe is how the guy out of Third Rock from the sun actually pulled off a...

Friends As much as the title may sound like it relates to the TV series of the same name, this post has nothing to do with the over-the-hill-trying-to-be-funny-while-making-twats-of-themselves sitcom. Its about friends, the real ones. Now, I have to be honest here (not that I'm usually not honest) but I've been a bit of a skeptic of the friends-for-life cliche. Admittedly there are cases where it has happenned but its not as common as people might think it. I have a handful of friends who I know have made an impact on my life but dont think I'll always be in contact with. Nothing new there, its all part of life. Even though most people who know me refuse to believe tihs, but I'm a huge skeptic (Ok you're all probably wondering why I'm babbling on like this, so we'll randomly skip to the next paragraph and I'll tell you). 2 days ago I was talking to a friend who I shared a house with at one point in Cyprus. Quite a few of my friends in Cyprus ...

Paint it black Self pity in the world of make believe (or TV to you and me) is such an awesome tool for one to attain one's goals. There is always a character who is in the depths of despair and yet one simple act (usually by the antagonist in most cases) turns out to be the pivotal point where said character shrugs off the shackles of the self imposed desolation to go on and achieve the impossible (in the case of Indian movies, often defying the laws of physics on the way to overcoming said impossibility). Side note, I am only saying that based on the stereotypical views I have of Indian movies. In the real world however, self imposed despondency is much tougher to shake off. And in the case of an evergreen pessimist such as yours truly, it really does become a struggle (I just realised I started the last sentence with an And... tsk tsk... the shame!). There really is no simple solution, compounded more so by a feeling of loneliness that arises when one's immediate family is i...
