Now the rude thing is i'm sitting at my friend's place who juss bought parts for a new pc, left me to put it all together so he can go pick up his wife... and what do i do, set it up and start bloggin.. man he's gonna kill me.. or maybe not.. oh crud.. i think i hear keys in the door.. laterz peeps! :)

Assalaam Alaikum all... fun day today... had a nice 6 hour sleep for once, woke up nice and fresh... but took a bit too long getting ready for Juma cuz i had intended to pray Juma in Uni but since i was late i missed it, so juss prayed Zuhr.. Bad me.. bad bad me... anyways... after that went straight to the library and tried to study for once.. The library is arranged in such a weird way... it's like 1 building divided into 2 areas kinda thing.. and like to cross from one section to the other you have to like go to the 3rd floor.. the staff has their own way of crossin' over to the other side but students cant.. u have to go to the third floor to do it which is too grrrrrrrrrrrr'ing... and since i had to go like all over the place, i must've gone up and down like 3-4 times... argh.. i'm gettin too old for this studying!!

Anyways, finished that, got outta the library and a friend came up from behind and ... yeap.. we went for Baskin RObbins!!! YAY! But before we did, we decided to go to teh National Art Gallery or watever itscalled.. (the one on Trafalgar square to those who know/live in London) First time i actually ventured in there... They had all these Van gophs, Monets, Renoirs, Cezzanes and pissaros i was shocked..I mean you read about all these paintings in the papers and how they're worth like zillions of bux but i like actually got to see 'em real live... and now i know Van goph's writing was terrible... i was lookin' at one of his paintings and the way vincent was written on it, i was like dude you could pass yourself as a preeskooler (which i managed to say outloud) at which my friend goes who u say that to??? i explained the sudden outburst and after that there wasnt any single painting we didnt make fun of... Ofcourse most of it was muttering so no one else could hear it, although we did notice a few raised eyebrows while badmouthing Renoir for eating an orange, spitting the seed on the canvas and then painting over it!! Was fun though... strangely we must've spent atleast half and hour or more there even though it was just a stop over for the heck of it.. then went to Baskin Robbins.. as i've been advertising everywhere, had 3 HUGE scoops with hot fudge and all.. was GRAND! Alhamdulillah.. yummm...

ok, apologies once again for not bloggin' about cyprus, thass juss a very long post which i cant do right now.. today instead of the choco chip cookies/muffins and milk, i'm thinking to have pepsi.. or maybe pepsi in milk.. LOL.. i can see a few jaws dropping to the floor now.. for those of you who find this an alien concept.. it's a very (should i say it.. oh go on, i will) desi thing.. mixing pepsi or seven-up... if you havent tried it (or heard of it even) i'd recommend you give it a chance before totally throwin' the idea out the window... half pepsi, half milk... might not taste awesome for some to begin with, but it'll quickly grow on u.. but remember people.. very very fatennin' stuff.. well not that very very but fatennin' nonetheless...

Which brings me to a hypothetical question people.. umm.. lets say a 'friend' of mine has a slight belly beginnin' to bulge out.. and like its not something noticeable but he's gettin' worred about it but is too lazee to do anything about it.. how would i motivate my 'friend' to get into some kinda exercise or something baring in mind my 'friend' hates going to teh gym... Any comments/suggestions would be extremely welcomed by me... ummm.. errr... my 'friend' i mean! :)

Today’s been a good day Alhamdulillah… I’m gonna try and blog in order of the events of the day so bear with me people, this might get a bit booring at times.

Day started at about 8:30 in the morning today, usual drill. Had my driving instructor come in at around 9:30. First lesson for me so I was a bit nervous but then I used my transformer technique to get the nerves under control. Ok now u’re all obviously asking what these transformer technique… well normally when I’m nervous, the theme from the transformers movie (you got the touch bla bla bla) starts playin’ in my head which can get irritating at times cuz I’m tryin’ to make a dua or read Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon and that craps playin’ in my head. In the end I did manage to cool down. Thass when the instructor showed up, quickie intros. Nice gentleman he was, reassuring.. asked me if I’ve ever driven before to which I said I drove for 4 years, he’s like u sure u wanna be bored with this.. I was like oh go on lets do it for the heck of it. So off we went, he did a roll around the block, gave me a few pointers and then let me loose on the road. MUHAHAHAHAHAHA. He was surprised I wasn’t opting for automatic gear lessons as most people do. I like manuals (stick shifts to u yanks) and yeah I didn’t stall once or even get a rough start so I was pleased that even after 3 years I wasn’t too bad. The instructor goes u juss need a bitta practice and u’ll be all good soon. Insha’Allah to that Mr. Instructor man. At the end of the lesson we had a friendly cigarette together too which was ummm, un healthy but nice. :)

Next got home, had one of those choclate chip muffins I bought yesterday cuz they looked oh so lonely on the supermarket shelf. Then decided to have a quick look at my emails before I settled down to do a bitta serious studying. And I juss HAD to log on to MSN as well. Immediately saw 2 new nicknames on the online list which I wasn’t used to… needless to say I got messages from both. Turned out to be 2 people I have come to know from Blogistan :-p. I think I was talking to them for an hour or so. Very nice indeed. Obviously that cheered me up so then I decided to study for a bit. Fast forward to after studies when I decided I had to watch monsters inc cuz I was too tired to study any more. Watched half of it before I decided I should do a Raeesa and go run around in the west end. Only thing is I didn’t have a ton of friends with me, juss one. Wasn’t bad though, juss had a walk near Tower Bridge. Then went off to Oxford Circus and did a bitta window shopping. (my friends never go with me when I have to buy cuz I take ages choosing!) I’m accused of being too girly when I go shopping, so I like to look around for options before I deicde, sue me… (umm, no don’t, I was only kiddin!) anyways, had a good walk around, then came back near my place and we went to this Pakistani place for dinner. After dinner went back to my friend’s for a bit of R&R (and a couple of cigarettes too!) watched the news. Then decided I’d had a long enough day… Seems like I’m really getting old, juss a few hours of doing nothing and I’m totally worn out. Sheesh… gotta exercise or something, get myself back into shape.

Anyways, here I am now, sitting here with my cold milk and (microwave warmed) chocolate cookies thinking of wat next to blog down. Oh incidentally, I promised someone I’d be posting about Cyprus, apologies but if I start that, you’ll all die of boredom and me of typing! Insha’Allah tomorrow I’ll be doing the typing. I did do my background research thought, went back to look at some old lecturers’ websites and found some pics of my department building too. Man oh man I’m so lost in the memories! *fingers snap* who wha where??? Oh ok.. I’m back… yeah ummm so… If anyone’s missed it, Shadaan posted a message on the views blog saying he might be getting hitched pretty soon.. so lets all say insha’Allah to that and pray for the best for brother shady. Yaz, this Burfee person u are beginning to like is a very unfortunate speck back from my high skool days.. kiddin.. burf was my partner in crime. We used to play basketball together way back in Jeddah (thass the city in Saudi Arabia we used to live) I’ve probably known him around 10-11 years now. We used to walk around half an hour everyday juss to get to the basketball court… play for 2 hours straight (well me atleast, he smoked back then so he’d need a break after an hour). Then walk another half hour home… past a particular house which I’m sure burfee remembers doncha burf??? :p We used to hang out all the time… I think the amount of shawarmas, sandwiches and meals at Wendy’s I had with burf probably outnumber all the other times I’ve eaten out till now. (and this aint no exaggeration by any means!) Then there was the summer I was stuck alone in Jeddah while my parents and bro were in Pakistan. Juss me and burf… we had some laffs.. oh and a certain someone bumping their dad’s chevy station wagon when we went to the monster truck show… oh ok.. I’m gonna stop now…

oh incidentally, I’m doing a yaz right now… As in I’m putting this all down on word and then will paste into bloggamatic. See, it’s cuz of all of you guyz saying how you lose long posts I’ve scared myself into typing this out in word! Since the pic aint showing I’m gonna get rid of it for now, and maybe I’ll sort it out tomorrow… Now, before word messes up, I’ll copy this into blogger and oh wait.. error message in word?? “All text will now be deleted???” NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!……….. :)

Man oh man i juss read Raeesa's comments on the other blog... Man she juss pasted the whole comments section down.. but wise words indeed... i'd recommend you guyz have a read... Anyways, was going to get some stuff for ammi in the morning when this guy stopped me and asked me if i knew arabic (i get that a lot, people for some reason think i'm arab.. My friend sez its cuz of me goatie) anwyays... i was like I'm from Pakistan..so he starts speakin' to me in english... The brother looked of African background, was talkin' very politely.. he goes to me i'm waitin' for my pay to come and my electricity cards run outta money (they have those charge keycards for electricity in some places here) and he's like i've no electricity at home and have 3 days before i get paid, can you spare me some change. Now the guy was talki'n polite enuff, sorta decently dressed, not dirty, juss a bit shabby... and the thing that was puzzling me were the eyes.. very red... couldnt tell if they were from tears or something else. I tried to keep my gaze controlled but get a good look head to toe (cuz the thought of him bein' a druggie came to me cuz of the bloodshot eyes) but i was like, atleast the dude's a Muslim and askin' politely, so might as well... Had five bux in my pocket (which i could spare, never walk around with too much cash) the rest was for the groceries mom wanted. He said Jazaka'Allah and walked off... I just hope i did the right thing and if the brother has any problems, I helped to ease them Insha'Allah.

Moving on, juss had a bath a little while ago, it's around 1:20 at nite now, i'm sittin' here with my milk and 3 chochie chip cookies. :) I juss realized i've still got to study a chapter for a quiz which i have in the morning. Dont really feel like going in the morning, but if i miss even a bit then you juss fall so way back behind, juss dont wanna be stuck with that. Oh heck, guess i wont be sleepin' after Fajr so i can do the studyin.

Thursday i've got my first driving lesson. Wonder how thats gonna turn out. It's not like i havent driven before, juss that i havent in 3 years.. and why am i takin lessons?? cuz i never drove with a license. I drove for around 4 years in Saudi Arabia but never with a license. Drove soo many different cars there it's unelieveable, probably the most powerful car i drove there was a modified GMC truck. The most comfortable probably a Merc E-series and the coolest a Cadillac Eldorado. More reasons why i miss that country... but from what i hear it juss aint the same it used to be.. but for me, I'm juss waiting for the chance to go back, sooooo miss doing an Umrah... Have to admit, when i was there, we used to go for Umrahs soo often that at times I juss didnt realize juss how lucky i was. I mean i'd go with parents, with friends, relatives, anyone back then. Now i'm realizin' how Allah Ta'ala had truly blessed me and given me such a huge privilege... now when i realize you have to invest so much time and money if you want to go for juss an Umrah from here, it dawns on me how easy it was for me there. Juss take a shower, make the intention for Umrah, jump in the car and bam, you're in Makkah Muazama in less than an hour. When i see it on TV, i juss go man, what i'd give to go back to Saudi Arabia today... Wonder when my next chance will come? :(

Now.. I realize people are ill at ease cuz of the stuff going on in Iraq.. and it's ofcourse understandable.. and ofcourse everyone has their own issues too... except fer Yazzie.. but she's weird... kiddin :) ... anyways.. gettin' back to the subject at hand.. as i was recently reminded from a post by Arshe ji, smiling is indeed a Sunnah.. I've decided we need to have a Smile Campaign around here... aint easy but if you put on juss one heartfelt smile in a day... one u really mean.. u'll probably birghten up someone's day... (ok i know i'm weird, sue me).. But this cant be a regular smile.. this has to be like an extraordinary smile... can be to anyone, parents, siblings, relatives, neighbours...friends.. Its your chioce.. I'll get the ball rollin'... I walked in from work today.. saw mom as soon as i walked in, gave her the biggest smile i've given in ages and gave her a hug... Thass my contribution.. Anyone else care to share??? (oh did i mention ice cream for everyone who shares their efforts!)

Come on people.. lets promote smiles for once! :)

Right... finally linked up the people i had been intendin' to for quite a while now.. apologies if i've forgotten anyone.. old age tends to do that to people.. i'm three and a half years OLD! :) I seriously have to change a few things on the template.. YES the color scheme's gonna stay.. i juss love these colors. Actually my favourite color is blue but grey's cool too. Juma went nicely today.. got stood up by a friend though, which was a bit ARGHing.. but hey i'm sure there's a good explaination for it.. only thing is i'm still waiting for it.. grrrrr... *counts : 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 * Ahhhh.. much better now.. i'm calm.. i'm calm...

More randomness.. i've been added by a few people on msn lately.. dont know who though.. I mean i was lookin' through my msn list today.. there's soo many people on my msn list who i dont even know who they are.. at present i've got 149 people on my msn messenger thingy.. scary isnt it.. u can never log on and not find someone online.. on the other hand, my AIM thingy has a grand total of 6 people.. lol.. yes yes i know its weird..dont find many people who use AIM.. (well apart from those who live in the states) hmmm... heard a song which had the line.. 'cuz life's soo simple, juss like la la la'... man.. if life were that simple... oh how i so wish it were...

Hey y'all.. Blogger finally starting behavin' so I've managed to put up the views bit with comments.. so if you guyz are still holdin' stuff in about my views.. go right ahead and blast away... :) it's the smally link right above the tagboard for now.. i'll sort it out later! Oh and Jazaka'Allah to Saharoo Paharoo for recommendin' the commentin' site.. :)

Assalaam Alaikum all....

Good golly green peppers... is it that long since i last posted... hmm.. well i'm back now... its been 2 days i've been tryin' to set up the new blog for the views and all... but the damn thing juss doesnt wanna play ball.. i think i'm gonna have to go with someone other than blogger for the second one... oh hum... Yeah so 2 days ago i pitched the idea of a communal blog to da pumpkinaa... and bein' a lazee bum i didnt post about it.. (well actually i was busy but who's countin') ... so anyways, my niece beat me to it and put all the tagboards up on one page... little smarty pants!! Yeah so the ideas still there.. lemme know wat you people think.. then i'll delegate the job to someone else... :)

Hmmm.. Yesterday i when i came home from uni i was hungry enuff to eat a horse! But then again i've never eaten a whole horse in one sittin' so i'm not sure if I would've been able to finish one but yeah... reason i was soo hungry is normally i have lunch in uni but these days whenever i have uni food or something from the fried chicken shop juss outside uni... In about 2 hours u juss start going queasy.. its juss the weird kinda queasy where u juss feel like u might sorta puke... but it aint the pukey feeling.. but it wont go away.. so ur sittin in the lecture thinkin why am i even here??? So yeah... i've been havin' salads (and choclate) for lunch... heck i juss realized i went soo far off my original topic.. so yeah.. comin back to the topic.. since i was sooo hungry, i called a friend and said lets go out and catch some desi food... So we went down to this place near my house to get a munch... Now normally Alhamdulillah whenever i eat, i always leave quite a bit of space in my stomach... I never overeat.. I never even eat to capacity...always less (something that livin' alone taught me)... anyways.. so yeah but yesterday it was like gobble gobble gobble... (and i aint talki'n turkey either!) Karhai gosht, Karhai chicken, daal and fried lady finger (hmm, wonder how many ladies are walki'n around fingerless cuz of my appetite).. but the best thing about dinner was... cuz its like a pure desi pakistani kinda place we were eatin in.. if someone say starts one topic on a table.. or if like the people working there are talkin about something, then whoever is in the place juss jumps into the conversation... and then someone else jumps in.. dudes goin.. ' ooo nahi ji main aap ko batata hoon!' .. someone else goes 'aray jo baat sahi hay uss ko to manain'... and it's all over the place.. i think in the space of around 45 min we talked (or debated) on the war, cricket, Islam and politics... people dont juss shoot off juss cuz they wanna be heard.. everyone had educated and intelligent things to say (except about cricket maybe.. u dont wanna know!) But it's juss that atmosphere that i sooo missed.. havent done that in ages.. places i lived before i'd know everyone from shopkeeps to restaurant owners..and wherever u walk in.. you juss start yappin' away! It's soo much fun.. (sorta like our blogs too.. people juss gather and throw around all kinda stuff.. but it's all cool... cuz i luv it here in blogland!) :)

Assalaam Alaikum all...

Sorry i aint been around again.. I know i'm being a bit slow on the postin'.. (not that I think the 2 people who actually come on here must've really noticed) but still, apologies to all... Hmmm.. lets see.. oh yeah... cool thing happenned yesterday... Remember how i said i got a cheque from the tax office for overpaid taxes being returned... well, went to the bank yesterday morning to get it deposited... Now it was early morning when walked into the bank half asleep, paid my CC bill and then handed the the cheque over to the woman behind the counter... She looks at me like I juss landed from Mars or something and goes, "could you hand me one of those pay-in slips from behind you so i can fill it out and deposit this cheque in your account... " (ok ok.. she wasnt rude at all, she smiled and asked very very politely) Obviously she noticed i was spazzed out from lack of sleep so she was all nice and actually offered me a cup of coffee... I declined, signed the stuff i needed to and split... Next i went to the Barber shop.. and my barber goes.. Usman you're in early.. you never walk in this time.. something wrong.. I was like nahh.. juss wanted to get some stuff sorted at the bank before Juma.. He goes oh bankk??? so we're getti'n the whole schkaboodle today eh.. I was like hold ur horses dude (why do we use that phrase when probably 1% of the world's population actually own horses!??)... Then he looks me over top to bottom and goes.. 'dude. whass with the get up??' (so he didnt use the word dude).. i'm like whaaa??? he goes u got some sorta ghetto immigrant Albanian rapper kinda thing going on... (now there's a characterisation i've never heard before)... oh and in between conversation he goes to me.. hold old are you... i'm like guess... he sez 28.. I juss got up from the chair and said dude u aint gettin' no money for the haircut today!!! (He juss added on 22 years to my age man.. aint no joke!!!)

Anyways... on another note... (mad topic transition skillz i have dont i??) I've put up some views of mine here... Have a look and lemme know.. I'll b updatin' soon cuz i've got a coupla other things i wanna put on but juss havent had the time to do so right now...

Alhamdulillah nothing like a day of fasting to get your head back on straight... Really, one day of fasting and everything's back in perspective... and now that i'm back to normal (or abnormal dependin on who's reading) or ummm.. is my normal abnormal ... or is my normal normal?? or abnormally normal?? oh heck.. been busy today... signed up to the Bloggin' Muslimz thingy... YAAY.. now juss need to copy da code so i can make my bloggie look all cute.. and linked to all you people too..

It's around 12:30 at nite right now... and for some reason i'm dying for a coffee and a smoke.. I seriously have to do something about these caffeine (or however it's spelled) and nicotine urges... granted they're nowhere near what they were 2 years ago but still.. any tips?? besides the will power bit.. cuz .. underneath this flabby exterior is an enormous lack of will power.

Dear anyone who reads this post... ummm... i dont even know how to go about this one.. well umm... for about the past however long i've been snow ploughed emotionally... its very very heavy and is bearing down on me right now... and at the moment i'm in the worst state emotionally then i've ever been... ... but... ummm... i'm probably not even making sense.. All i ask from you all is juss a little dua for me becuase i most definitely need them.. Jazaka'Allah.

Forgot the Special invite... My Age is Showing!!

Man i'm only 23 (well juss turned 23 a coupla weeks ago) and already i'm forgettin' stuff... Now the reason i say that is cuz i forget the person who showed me that weed is good for me (halal weed mind u people!!)... the Hippy of da bloggin' world... the person who hooks people right from her blog... FAIZA... *crowd cheers* *people do the wave across the grandstands* YAY!

Incidentally, i juss remembered i havent had my own special owners pass printed out, so everyone has their invites, but if i dont get mine soon, they wont let me in to my own island... i'm really havin' issues rememberin' stuff... Juss call me Forgetful Jones :)

Invites to Baskin Robbinius

Hmmm... Think its time i put this all straight... now i Usman 'Baskin Robbins-on Crusoe' have decided who i'm gonna hand out invites to.. and i've got good reasons for givin' 'em out cuz as you know i'm the one organizin' the stuff and the meetins gonna b on my Island... so noooo.. it's not gonna b cali.. and noooo... not Toronto either... maybe London or my own Island.. now for the list of people who get invites to Baskin Robbinius...

Arshe ji... Well cus simply she's Arshe ji.. that lets her qualify for an invite...
Uzer... Cuz he's a Counter Strike fan....
Yasmine... Hmmm.. difficult one.. see there's weird, then there's nuts, then there's totally insane.. and finally.. 'THE YAZ'.. since she's the spiritual leader of all people who attain 'the Yaz'.. since i wanna attain 'The Yaz' too, i can only learn from her..so she gets an invite..
Shadaan.... Cuz he's me partner in Baskin Robbinius... i trust him with my life... (but not me icecweam) :)
Shereen... Cuz she loves choclate too
Tora Bora... Cuz those bro's know sooo much about Islam Masha'Allah.

Good Streak Alhamdulillah

Hmmm.. yesterday and today been going pretty good for me... Admittedly i've been havin' looooooooooooong days (but then again dont i complain about 'em always) but end of the day some little surprise comes up and things start lookin' up... 'How??' i hear u ask?? Well lets take yesterday shall we... Went to work.. was dog tired when i got home.. and as soon as i get in the door.. i'm greeted by this official lookin' letter starin' straight at me sayin 'u open me and u'll regret it'.. I pick it up and walk into my room... Now i'm like ok.. lets open it up shall we... then Ozzy (thass the other me) sez..'u open that and u'll die of depression, u already got ur credit card bill to pay, ur dog tired and now before u do anything else u wanna open another bill???'... So i was like yeah Ozzy's right... I go wash up... change... get into relax mode.. then i see the dreaded letter from the twilight zone again... this time Ozzy knew i was gonna open it so he juss went, 'go on ur dyin' to anyways'... (wasnt really in the mood of arguin' with him) I opened it and lo and behold, the first thing that flashes in me noggin is that its a letter from the Inland Revenue (tax office to the uninitiated).. I'm like oh heck there goes the neighbourhood (and somewhere in the background i hear ozzy swear) So i start readin... Dear Mr yada yada yada... bla bla bla .. doo doo... please find enclosed cheque for the balance in tax overpaid... WAIT A SEC!!! cheque??? overpaid tax??? So obviously i skip the rest of the blaahdy blaah and look at the amount... well lets juss say the amount put a big grin on my face and I got up, said 'i told u so' to Ozzy and went "AMMIIIIII" went up to her, showed her the letter.. she goes cool... be sure to adjust this in the Zakat u gotta pay... Yes ma'am.. good day.. good day indeed Alhamdulillah... :)

Come down to today... had a driving theory test which i've literally been putting off for the last 6-8 months now... and 3 weeks ago finally decided i should get it over with.. i booked the test 3 weeks ago and got a date for today... went to the test center EARLY in the morning... sleepy, half nervous and in need of a nice SLAP-ON-THE-FACE wakeup latte, i walked to the terminal i was supposed to do the test... do the questions.. and by my calculations i'm gettin 6 wrong outta 35.. i need atleast 30 to pass.. so i look over and over again.. dang.. cant seem to convince myself of the answers i've given... then finally decide to think logically.... yeap... after a decade i thought mite as well put the stu pot to good use for once... (there are some weird questions in those tests u know) when i finsihed, I thought.. Ya Allah u know best... (while Ozzy's in the background going yeah yeah.. dont study and then go Ya Allah!!!) Anyways.. finish up my test.. walk outside and find out outta the 6, the three i changed (after the logical thinking... lol.. cant believe i'm sayin' i did that!!!) the changed answers were correct.. so i went from 1 down pass to 2 above.. 32 outta 35 aint bad... yeah so that made me happy.. then went to work.. again damn long day.. got home dog tired.. Ammi wasnt feelin' well so was warmin' up dinner... and i put my hand in my pocket.. out comes 5 bux i dont remember puttin' dere.. i'm like yay... money day for me... have dinner.. after dinner.. friend calls up and sez lets go for a walk.. i'm like ok.. (obviously we go out for a walk after dinner to push down the food and emm... well u know.. still got the cravings) get my jacket on, and as i step out... put ma hand in my jacket pocket.. out comes 10 bux i didnt know were there... Needless to say.. i've not since been able to get this dumb smile off my face... I'm happy Alhamdulillah.. and I thank him for all i have been given... now if he'd only listen about the goose that lays golden eggs... :)

Man uni was loooooooooooooooooong today.. then again it's always long... on a positive note though... i think i did pretty good in the quiz today... Global Telecommunications and networking... Bah.. piece of Baskin Robbins cake...

There's a new Bend it Like Beckhamania starting... ever since i watched it and been tellin' everyone that i did.. nearly everyone i know has watched it again...this one dude watched it twice in 3 days... weird thing is i've only seen it once but yet everyone else is watchin' it over and over.. i juss gave my copy to a friend today... serious weirdness i tell you...

And you know what.. this Baskin Robbins thing is going too far now...the friend who i had the bet going with, we were both lookin' at their website in uni today... (and yes we were druuuuuuuuulin') I've got work tomorrow and day after but good golly gosh darnit i'm sure as hell going on Friday after Juma Insha'Allah... (and unfortunately so will another 6-7 people who are expectin me to pay)...

I've juss been advised to buy my own island and set up my Baskin Robbins empire there (thanx to the Yaz for the idea)... great idea.. only thing is... i'd get ideas of world domination... probably freeze the world over with icecream.. now granted there are a few icecream lovers out there who'd probably gobble up my plans to an extent.. but i'll have hot molten fudge poured over 'em... then shoot chunks of roasted nuts at 'em... and then entomb them in choclate sprinkles.. hmmmm... better copyright this idea before they use it for the next james bond movie... Hey cool... if i copyright it.. then sell it to the people who make the bond movies.. i can live a week like bond too.. so that'll be another adventure i'll have gone through.. (man the brainstorms juss dont stop do they??)

You're Doctor Cox!

Sarcastic and cynical, but deep down we know you
care.

Sometimes it's ok to let that show.

Oh darn.. wonder if they had the Janitor dude in this survey too.. he is far out cool!! Lol... they juss let out all ma secrets in that quiz!!! :-p

I've juss had the most awesomest idea (which also answer's Arshe Ji's question as to wat's next on my adventure list). I plan to open the first ever outlet of Baskin Robbins in the Himalayas... now you're all probably wonderin' why in the name of butter pecan topped with green chillies and vinegar am i gonna do a thing like that... well, simplest reason in the world... I wont have to buy no freezers :-) ...is that kool or wat.. and ofcourse i can have as much icecream as i want.. mite be a few problems with the hot fudge though... ho hummm.. nothing that cant be sorted out... :)

Seems like people have a love hate relationship going on with the color scheme on my blog.. like i said before.. blue.. grey.. these are colors I like.. and they're stayin... so there... :-p

Man.. I've juss got myself stuck in a jam.. We had exams last month and like i have this friend.. both of us had this idea that the other studied more (when in fact we probably didnt study at all) and were pinnin' it on each other to get higher marks.. in the end it was agreed that whoever gets the higher marks buy's alicecream (thass icecream to the uninitiated) from Baskin Robbins.. (is it me or BR being mentioned a bit too much all over the place these days).. anyways... You know the score in uni.. the course directors cant tell u any one else's scores... so neither of us know wat the other's got... and we were both probably messin' when we were telli'n our marks.. so we both go up to the course dir and ask her who got the highest marks.. she immediately picked up what was going on and goes.. so what do i get outta this... and obviously she learned of the whole thing.. and then she looks at the scores and goes.. Usman... get out the checkbook.. we're going for icecream.. and ummm.. didnt take too long for everyone else in our class to find out.. now i've got 14 people on my case for icecream... hmmm..maybe if i changed my identity... (it's always a thought eh)... by the way... moral of the story... dont bite off more than u can chew.. (unless its icecream)

I was a victim of ciwcumstances.. nyuk nyuk nyuk...

I think i should sleep...
