10 things that makes me happy!

OK I have been tagged by The Cyborg Spy to write about ten random things that makes me happy,I have no idea who started it but a great idea I must say..
It was hard to pick only 10 but here goes,

1.Long talks with my sisters, best friends and Roshi
When ever I call or meet them we speak for hours about everything and anything,We giggle over nothing , it really makes my day!

2. Walking In the rain
I like to do this so much my neighbors used to think I am crazy, I like to watch the rain washing off everything and specially the smell of sand when it rains! mostly I go out in the rain to feel the joy and sorrow and I love the music of the rain drops!3.Sunday mornings back home
I love Sunday mornings because my whole family will be sitting on the couch reading all kind of papers and everyone will be so silent and drinking their tea, I have always loved that moment.. for one moment no one will be worried about getting late for work or missing an appointment.
4.Playing with kids specially with my nieces and nephews
I love this because when i am with them I don't have to act like a grown up, I can just be silly and immature like them and I know they wont judge me or think I am crazy, and specially because they think that I know everything LOL

pics of zara,zagum and Sarah(my nieces and nephew) the sweetest babies I know.
5.Looking at Old photographs
I love to do it because it brings back memories of childhood and so many other things..

6. Listening to Dads and Mums old tales
This has always been one of my favorites because when ever they start telling about how they met and how things started off, how my grandma was against it, I could always see some kind of glow in their faces and Mostly I like the way they refer to their friends as that boy or that gal when actually those people might be 50 something by now....

7.Being with El
These moments are inexpressible

8.Over hearing someone telling something good about me.
this has happened quite a few times, and I couldn't help grinning at those moments.

9.Giving away my Toys to little Kids.
I used to hate this few year ago, but when I see the smile on their faces , It makes me really happy.Now I love giving away my stuff.

10. LOVE EATING ICE CREAM SPECIALLY VANILLA ICE CREAM WITH STRAWBERRY JAM OR CARAMEL Oh yeah and i tag MEESE!

Happy Birthday K!

Happy birthday K, hope you will have a wonderful day filled with joy and laughter.. I miss u so much. And don’t think that u shouldn’t celebrate your special day because I am not there ,go and enjoy with your other lousy friends (ok pooh Kill me later)

I just wanted you to know that, where ever I am I will always be your friend, I don’t care how many friends I have over here ,but if I don’t chat with u one day I feel so down. When I see u signing in to messenger I feel so exited and happy because I want to pour out all kind of crap that happened to me throughout the day.and I know u want to hear it and share ur crappy life as well,

when I am feeling miserable and lonely, the first thing I do is text u, or see whether your online , to rant about my sucking life. Because I know that u will listen to every word and just make me feel better in a second or if that’s impossible u will join my ranting…when I am with u , I don’t have to be scared of misjudgment I, can tell what ever I want and I know u will understand what ever I say(great minds think alike right) or I can just stay silent and u will still get me.

I know even If I call u at 4 AM u will still be happy to hear my voice, and most of all u believed in me when everyone gave up on me, and I am glad I have u, If not for u I wont be the person I am today.your the one who brings out the best in me.
Have a super duper birthday sweetie. Miss u loads. We will celebrate both our birthdays when I come down there in august!

And this video has always reminded me of us!

One Message Recieved.

Most of the time we get exited when we see the one message received sign blinking on our mobiles. Text messages have become a godsend to people who are too busy to write e mails or to make phone calls, who are too scared to apologize or break up face to face.Text messages can also be used to cast a vote for an "American idol or sirasa super star" favorite or to flirt with someone u haven’t even met!

Last night I messaged one of my friends asking her to return my note book. The reply I got was just one letter that was "K" .I knew she was telling OK but suddenly I was thinking oh is she mad at me? Because i felt it’s kind of rude, then I called her and asked hey is everything OK? Are u mad with me?.
Her exact words were "No dear why would I be mad with u? I was too lazy to type that's why I sent just a K"
This is not the first time this has happened to me often my friends think I am mad with them or i think their mad with me because of short messages like "OK. bye. tx, ttyl ".
Text messages are a good way to keep u going, if Ur bored, but if Ur busy u will want to reply in one or two words. But sometimes it will offend the receiver.

Before text messages were introduced we all managed to survive didn't we?
Anyway I think most of the time text messages are convenient only to the sender. take this for an example I have a relationship crisis, and I text my friend telling how I feel, then she texts me back consoling me, then again I reply her, and this can go on like this for for few mins, in a case like this one person will send at least 5 text's, where as the friend had nothing to do with it , she will end up wasting her money as well.
If not for messages we would have used to solve the problem using a phone call, it would have been a bit expensive but lot convenient and fast right? Another thing I have noticed is my spellings have gone bad because of these short messages we use to send, when I was new to text messaging I used to write full words but now to save money and time, I use short words and, I can tell u it has totally ruined my spellings altogether.

Most teenagers are addicted to text messaging, I bet they could send a message with their eyes closed.. I too was addicted to messages few years ago and my mother used to shout at me telling those messages are ruining u.. I guess she was right , now I have limited texting , I do it when there is only a need and I hardly send forwarded messages .I have realized it's all a waste of time and money.

And don't u hate when someone starts texting when Ur in a middle of a conversation.. oh man i just hate it when people do that.

I am not telling text messaging are bad all together, since my family is scattered all around the world sometimes it's hard for me to call, so I keep in touch with messages.
another good thing You can text without disturbing others around you, It is so helpful during movies (but don’t make Ur self to engrossed in text messaging u will end up missing half of the movie), while at work, and anywhere else where voice calls may not be permitted.

Text messages aren't going to wake anyone up, and they will be right there when u wake up in the morning for u to be read. And if u have a room mate it’s a nice way to keep in touch with Ur special someone at night without being a nuisance to anyone..

I think the basic thing we all have to understand here is, that text messaging has its pros and cons, since nothing in this world is perfect, but we should be able to use it intelligently so that we don’t cross the limit and be an addict or a textholic…

Battle of life, here I come!

So far i have lived a very comfortable life, sometimes it had been luxurious as well. but it was nothing to do with me, it all revolved around my fathers success. He was a successful person. he educated all five of us( me and my four elder sisters) to the maximum point. now its time for him to retire. and I am not sure how my life will be after that.. I think it will be the end of my vacations in Maldives the paradise on earth and all other expensive stuff and my comforts,,

I know I should be scared and worried about this , but amazingly I am excited about the whole thing, because this means I will have to be independent and will have to find my way through life, which will be interesting . and even though I am worried that my dad ,the workaholic will be bored to death at home, I am happy that he is getting a rest . He is not in the age for heavy work stress despite what he says. LoL. Anyway I am eager to find out how successful I can be in life. I know it's not an easy road but we all should start travelling it someday, right?

Its a relief to know that I am surrounded by so many loved people who are willing to lend a hand along the way. I don't know what my future holds for me, but I am eager to find out. in few more months I will have to take matters in to my hand and start my journey through life ,which will have loads of ups and downs..
I Think this is what I have been preparing myself for 22 years right? and my dad and mum have been the role models of my life so if I go in their foot steps, I don't think I will fail.
Its scary but I am confident I will be able to handle it well. because I will have a shoulder to cry on when things go wrong...

This is what one of my elder sisters said when she got to know the news
WELCOME TO OUR SIDE OF THE WORLD!REAL LIFE SUCKS,BUT U WILL LOVE IT. I hope I will too. GOOD LUCK TO ME. Battle of life here i come!

Can i be ur friend??? Ah let me know ur race first!

My parents brought up me according to my race, but they never under estimated any other religion or never did they tell me not to make friends with children of another race. I was free to make my own Friends,. I have written about my best friends in an earlier post. And what i forgot to tell there (because it never occurred to me that much until now) is that we 4 are from 3 different races. But it was never a big deal to me. sometimes it was kind of hard when it came to dress codes and parties because i have some restrictions there, but my friends understood that and respected my individuality never did they laugh or criticized me. So in my life up to now i have never been bothered or tortured by racism (other than by few school teachers) i think i was lucky to have such understanding friends.

Now I’m in uni and life is quite different from school and it’s quite hard to find good friends like back at home. And I have seen many people suffering because of the racism issue. My uni is full of people from different races and the main thing I see is, nobody likes to mingle with the Africans, and, it bothers them a lot and they feel like an outcast and most of them have lost their self confidence. I have two great African friends. They help me in every way. Another thing is most of the time Africans stick together with Africans, Indians with Indians, Malays with Malays and Chinese with Chinese.
Pathetic isn’t it I thought the whole idea of an international university with so many different races is about interacting with each other. Guess I was wrong!

Even if u try to be good friends with people of other races sometimes it doesn’t go that well. Because In the long run u will come across some racial thing no matter how good the friends are. Sometimes they will all go partying and will forget to tell u. they all will talk the same language and u won’t understand anything and they will rarely talk in English. They will remember to give everyone a birthday gift but u. and most of the time u will be left behind. They will forget u exist and criticize ur religion in front of u.Wont these things make u wonder and question your self? Won’t u tend to think that they don’t like your company? And really don’t care a damn about your friendship or your feelings? Sometimes they may be not knowing that they are hurting u it’s just that they care more about they are own kind.

What should be the reason that people like to stick with people from they are own race and give more priority to them? Is it because it’s more comfortable and more convenient? Or is it something that they do involuntarily? Or is it the way they were brought up?

I really don't know whether there are answers to all these questions. How can people judge or make friends according to a skin color or a race.. Can’t it be only about caring, sharing and fun? Why can’t we enjoy our differences? And treat each person according to his individuality without grouping him to a color or race first

Consider this merely as a blog and nothing else.everything i have told here is NOT from my experiences so do not question me!

Ah I did it all by myself!

Months ago I bought this cloth rack and I was unable to assemble it because I didn’t have a hammer , many people promised me that they would do it for me, but yet two months later it's still there lying in my room all scattered up just like my clothes( because DHU!! I don’t have cloth rack). So today when I woke up I thought, why do I always depend on others, screw them, i will do it by myself and anyway I didn’t have anything better to do since it was a long holiday and I was the only one trapped in the apartment. Since I didn’t have a hammer I used my dumbbells instead and after struggling with it for about an hour I was done, and i was sweating like a pig! and Even though I damaged my finger in the process ,I felt happy and proud of myself because I was able to do a mans job myself.. But I do wish I had done this long time ago it would have saved me many minutes which I wasted while searching my socks and shawl in a jumble of clothes in the morning, when I was already late for Lab… anyway the lesson I learnt today Is I should try to be independent and do my stuff by myself,,,, it reminded me of the old saying “If there is a will there’s a way”!!

I will Love u till the End!

Sometimes I wonder.
How come u love me so much.
U never get fed up or mad.
Not even when i get out of hand.
U always make me calm.
with a sweet Little joke.
and forget all the mean things.
in less than a second.
when I am all worn out of crying.
U look at me with Ur charming eyes.
and whisper that U will love me forever.
No matter how crazy i get.
Then u hug me tight and.
buy me an ice cream.
That is my favorite part of our fights.
Darling i just wanted u to know.
I am so sorry.
I never mean anything i tell.
My tongue is out of control.
just as me and my mind.
No matter how crazy and stupid i get.
Remember,
I will love u till the end!
