    Got this quote from a friend's P.M. :)

     
    “To laugh often and much...
    To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...
    To leave the world a better place...
    And to know that at least one life has breathed easier because you have lived...
    This is to have succeeded.”
     
     
    A quote so simple, yet so expressive...
    It could easily sum up all the things I'd want out of life!

    It Seems The Cat Died in Vain...Still As Curious As Ever!!

    Just when I'd stareted thinking I knew enough about you to understand who u are...

    Just when I thought I knew enough to see where I'm heading with you...

    I bump into this!!!
     
    I didn't even ask for information...
    I didn't even go searching for answers to the infinite questions I had about you...
    I didn't even have that many questions at all !!!
     
    My only mistake was that I couldn't resist the temtation of exploring a path through your thoughts...
    I couldn't have ignored it...it was simply beyond my power or control...
    But now I'm paying dearly...for the short glimpse into your real world,
    has raised more questions than I've ever had about anyone or anything!!!
     
    Why did I have to go there?!
    & Why did it have that huge impact on me?!!
    Why do I always seem to be attracted to confusion & mystery?!!
     
    Too many DAMN questions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Can U Spell I.N.F.I.N.I.T.Y. !! (republished)

    The 1st rule of fate is that there are no rules for the sequence of events, non to which we-humans-have access to knowing, anyway.
    That is, whatever fate has in store for us will always exceed our expectations in a way or the other.
    Even when we do get what we were expecting to get, there's always gott'a be some twist, somewhere...an extra detail of some sort.

    Personally, I find it absolutely beautiful, amazing, amusing, & even a little intimidating, too...
    Infact, should life ever bepredictable, it'd be boring, & very possibly disappointing, too.

    I mean...which do u think'd be better?
    A happy ending that u picture with ur -relatively- very limited imagination,
    OR, one that ALLAH (sob7anaho wa ta3ala) has planed for u?
    Don't know 'bout u, but I'd pick ALLAH's plan with my eyes closed & my heart opened!!

    Which brings to the 2nd rule of fate;
    Whatever life brings along, happens for a very good, & ingenious reason...
    a reason that our-again-very limited imagination couldn't possibly FULLY grasp, no matter how much we convince ourselves that we understand.
    Ofcourse, we'll, sometimes, be lucky enough to part of the reason...
    the part that's very closely related to us...but the full picture'll always be too big for us to take in.

    To give an example;
    Take an apparently simple detail as the breath u take in, & then let out...
    Can u trace it's full impact on the UNIVERSE?
    U're likely to reach a reasonable number of connections & relationships between outragiously irrelevant issues (or so it seems on the surface)...
    It really depends on the depth of ur reflections, & how far ur imagination can take u.

    That was one breath...a tiny little detail in ur everyday life that most of us take for granted, & rarely ever give it a second thought...
    Now, imagine applying the previously mentioned analysis to bigger, & even more complicated issues...
    Each of these issues contains zillions of tiny little details, that, each, have an EVENTUALLY deep impact on several other issues...
    & then imagine whatever impact u've managed to sum up, MULTIPLIED by the number of people going through the same issues as u are, & affecting the world by living their lives...
    not to mention animals, plants, & non-living things whose mere existance or absence can make a whole world of difference...!!

    Can U Spell I.N.F.I.N.I.T.Y. ?!

    Are u getting the picture here?
    'Coz personally I got lost in there myself!!

    I do get one thing, however, & that is;
    If all these, seemingly, irrelevant issues (universe-wide) are so ingeniously interconnected, then there sure has to be a good purpose for every thing...

    Even the existance of that mosquito,which seems to enjoy it's stay on my cieling...maybe it's the vanilla scented thingie I'm hanging!!

    Lyrics

    Everybody's Someone
    (LeAnne Rhymes ft. Brian McFadden)


    And everyday begins the same,
    get out a while, come back again...
    Same old, same old!!

    A thousand faces pass u by,
    U never look into their eyes...
    U feel so ordinary, they feel so ordinary!



    Chorus:
    Hey everybody's someone,
    no matter where u come from.
    There's light in every single star,
    u're more than who u think u are!

    Hey everybody's someone!
    When it's hard to hold on,
    remember u are not alone,
    this hous is everybody's home!



    And everyday u seem to chase
    the perfect smile, the perfect face...
    Same old, same old!

    For everyone that gets to shine,
    a million more are left behind...
    They feel so ordinary, u feel so ordinary!



    Chorus:
    Hey everybody's someone,
    no matter where u come from.
    There's light in every single star,
    u're more than who u think u are!

    Hey everybody's someone!
    When it's hard to hold on,
    remember u are not alone,
    this hous is everybody's home!



    From a king to a common man,
    we're all part of a greater plan!

    Somethings About Me!!

    ***You Keep Things Chill***

    For you, the whole adrenaline thing is totally over rated. You'll take safety over an emergency room trip.
    This doesn't mean you don't break out of your comfort zone. You just don't stray too far from it.
     
    ***You Are a Pundit Blogger!***

    Your blog is smart, insightful, and always a quality read.
    Truly appreciated by many, surpassed by only a few
     
    ***You Are 60% Weird***

    You're so weird, you think you're *totally* normal. Right?
    But you wig out even the biggest of circus freaks!
     
     
    ***You Are the Super Ego***

    While some people may think first and act later... you often don't act at all.
    You rather be safe than sorry, and you take ethics pretty seriously.
    Like everyone, you have some pretty crazy desires. But unlike everyone, you restrain yourself.
    You have high standards for your own behavior. And you happily exceed them.

    ***You Are 70% Manic***

    You're so energetic, it's almost like you have a superpower.
    If you can dream it, you can do it. And without stopping for sleep.
    Just make sure you harness your energy for good - not evil!

    ***You Are 16% Sociopath***

    You're empathetic, loyal, and introspective.
    In other words, there's no way you're a sociopath... but you can spot one pretty easily!

    ***You Are 83% Peaceful***

    You are the epitome of inner peace and total calm.
    You are grounded, emotionally mature, and very wise.
    While no one's life is perfect, you have a great amount of perspective on the world - and you place in it.

    ***You Are 20% Cynical***

    Cynical? Not even close! If anything, you're a bit naive.
    Overall, you enjoy life and try not to be paranoid. Even if you've been burned before.

    ***You Are 16% Brutally Honest***

    You're not very honest - even with yourself sometimes.
    While it's good to be diplomatic, all your little lies are turning you into a pathological liar!

    ***You Are 48% Borderline***

    You have some symptoms of borderline personality disorder.
    If you feel like you're more than a little dramatic, you may want to investigate further.

    ***You Have Your Sarcastic Moments***

    While you're not sarcastic at all times, you definitely have a cynical edge.
    In your opinion, not all people are annoying. Some are dead!
    And although you do have your genuine moments, you can't help getting your zingers in.
    Some people might be a little hurt by your sarcasm, but it's more likely they think you're hilarious.

    ***You Are 28% Paranoid Schizophrenic***

    You're pretty grounded, though you have your occasional paranoid moments.
    Just make sure to ignore those voices in your head!
     
     
    ***You Communicate Like a Man*** :S

    When you communicate, you like to get to the point.
    You're not afraid to say what's on your mind - and leave it at that.
    Talking about your emotions drains you. You rather keep them to yourself.
    You prefer solving problems to wallowing in your sorrows.

     
     
    ***Your Brain is Purple***(My Absolutely Favourite Color:D)

    Of all the brain types, yours is the most idealistic.
    You tend to think wild, amazing thoughts. Your dreams and fantasies are intense.
    Your thoughts are creative, inventive, and without boundaries.
    You tend to spend a lot of time thinking of fictional people and places - or a very different life for yourself.

     
    ***You Are a Little Messy***

    You aren't the cleanest person in the world, but you're definitely not a slob.
    You clean up when you have the time, but you're realistic about what you can get done.
    Generally, you're pretty organized and tidy - though you may have a few hidden messes.
    You eventually get around to making things spotless, but you do it on your own schedule!

     
    ***You Are Very Skeptical***

    Your personal motto is: "Prove it."
    While some ideas, like life after death, may seem nice...
    You aren't going to believe them simply because it feels good.
    You let science and facts be your guide... Even if it means you don't share the beliefs of those around you.

     
    ***You Are 66% Non Conformist***

    You are a pretty serious non conformist. You live a life hardly anyone understands.
    And while some may call you a freak, you're happy with who you are.

     
    ***You Are A Good Friend***

    You're always willing to listen
    Or lend a shoulder to cry on
    You're there through thick and thin
    Many people consider you their "best friend"!

     
    ***You Are 60% Bipolar***

    You're a bit moody, and at times, your moods can be a bit extreme.
    It's up to you to decide if you're simply dramatic... or slightly bipolar.

    Secrets My ****

    Your Love Life Secrets Are
    Looking back on your life, you will have a few true loves.

    You're a little scarred from your past relationships, but who isn't?

    You expect a lot from your lover - you want the full package. You tend to be very picky.

    In fights, you speak your mind and don't hold back. You know you're right, and you can get quite angry about it.

    Break-ups can be painful for you, but you never show it. You hold your head high.

    Hidden Me!!

    The Part of You That No One Sees
    You are unique, witty, and even a little snobby.
    You're quite proud of who you are, and nothing is going to change that.
    You've paved your own way in life, and you've ended up where you want to be.

    Underneath it all, you feel very isolated from the rest of the world.
    It's hard to find people to relate to you on every level.
    The mundane interests of your friends and family often bore or depress you.

    I Dream

    I want a man who loves me deep & true
    I want a man who shows me he cares
    I want him, in hard times, to see me through
    I want us to spend our life in shares
     
    I wait for whomever will claim my heart
    So effortlessly, & dispite my every defence
    I wait to read the story, where fate stores my part
    Where I'll be the heroine, & he'll be my long lost prince
     
    I know this poem is over-rated
    But it's what I felt like writing tonight
    & if it really is that much hated
    U can always express urselves & write!!

    A Jerk's Perspective!!

    A Qoute:
     
    "Think of one thing to change the world for the better, & put it into action!!"
     
     
    A Jerk's Response:
     
    "Ummm ...
    Okay, I've thought of something...
    How about I go to McDonalds & get myself a cheese-burger...
    That way the world'll have one less hungry person to worry about!!"
     
     
     
    (How selfless!!!)

    I Like It When I'm Busy!!

    Now I know how one of the laziest creatures on earth
    can become a workaholic...!!
    Just give'em a hopeless romance,
    & u'll find'em workin' their  butts off... .
    "How?!", u ask?
    Well, work means ur busy...
    The more u work, the busier u get
    -& hence- the less time, & energy
    u have to waste, thinking about
    that hopeless romance of urs!!
     
    As easy as that!!

    Daaa3at Mofradat El Lo3'aaa!!

       "Mat7awelsh tenker...Ana sme3t koll 7aga b '3ADMET WEDANY'...!!"
     
    That's wut I said to my brother while telling him off for disobeying Mom's orders...
    U can only imagine his reaction...
    He stared blankly at me for about 5 seconds,&(like me)was thinking,
     
       "Hold on!!Something's not right with that statement!!"
     
    & then it hit him...he smiled mockingly at me & said,
     
       "Aslan bey2oolo 3ADMET 'LESANI' msh 'WEDANI'..HAHAHA!!"
    (how dare he mock me while I'm pulling off my elder-sister-act!!)
     
    At that moment, I didn't know wut I felt more like doing;
          a.Hit him in the  face with a heavy object 
      -or-
         b.Laugh my head off
     
    I chose (b) for no other reason than that I was phisically too tired to lift anything heavy... .
     
    This is where u get when u spend all night bent over spread sheets doing drawing H.W.,
    & wake up early to go hand it in, only to discover that the deadline's been extended till next week... .

    <lamp goes on in head>"Well wut d'ya know?!! Blimey...!!"

    I'll never forget that moment when I got my first idea of a builing.
       For the first time in a conciderable while, it actually felt like I've started thinking like an architect...Visualizing the building as space, form, function, & even possible construction methodologies, all together...
       For those of you who have nothing to do with architecture, let me just sum it up...
    It's like feeling professional all of a sudden!!
       Just when I thought that all the stuff I heard in lectures'd gone -completely- over my head...it turns out some of that stuff actually stuck with me... .
     
     
    The moral of my little boring story is:
    "Attend lectures..u never know when they might come in handy!!"

    RePrEsSeD AnGeR!!

    I cannot accept being doubted...not for long

    I cannot accept not being believed...not for long

    I cannot tolerate being interrogated about the tiniest of details...not for long

    I cannot defend myself against unvoiced accusations...not in a million years

    I cannot defend my word's credibility against unspoken disbelief...not in a million years

    I cannot keep my cool when confronted by these disabilities of mine...and so I errupt

     

    & I cannot restrain my anger once it reaches erruption point...

     

    So please avoid pushing these buttons,

    if you want the smooth, authentic, & tolerant me...

    New Year's Eve...2007... !!! (Same <...>s, & <!!!>s, talk about "Monotonous")

       New year, new title, new events ... but still the same old me !!
    So much's happened this past year, that it's all become a
    mish-mash of memories. I can barely separate them, to reflect upon each one alone... .
     
       But I'm not writing here to tell the story of my life during 2006 ('coz it's classified )... not even to state my resolutions for 2007('coz it'll come back to haunt me later )... . Besides, I'm sure u ppl have much better things to do with ur time (& eyes, for that matter..) than to read my diaries, summerised.
     
       No, I just wanted to say happy new year...& 3ied mubarak... .
    And also to ask a quick question... .
     
       At midnight tonight, just as the clock strikes a new year, after u've looked back on this ending year's events...
          Will u be smiling to urself & saying,"Bring it on life !!",
      or Will u be staring at ur clock, horrified, & wondering,"Where'd
           the time go so fast?"... ??!
     
     
     
    Just thought I'd share my curiosity...!!

    Fassel Wa Nowasel..!!

    (I chose that title 'coz I wrote this during a "Surveying" lecture to which I was barely listening...so it was like a commercial break..get it?!...nevermind...!!)
     
    I refuse to see the darkness beyond the light.
    I won't be too scared to go straight on.
    I couldn't let the pain blind me,
    so I don't see the joy...of loving you.
     
    Everything I do, or say, or feel, or need...
    it's just a life without living,
    till I see you at the centre of it all.
     
    But this isn't me...
    or wasn't me, until you came into my life.
     
    This isn't me...
    it's not how my mind works...
    not when you're not around.
     
    I'm not sure I'm inlove,
    but if I'm sure of anything at all...
    it's that I've never been like this before.
     
     
    I guess I am inlove with you afterall...!!
