This past year, I’ve been coping with a couple of personal problems which brought me to a state of neglect and mild depression. Nope, i didn’t fall in love and didn’t have my heart broken…but nice try guys!
Khair, during my phase of becoming ice-queen, I learnt to appreciate myself better and that instead of pushing people away, at the end of the day u don’t just hurt them but u end up gnawing at a part of urself too. It’s not worth it! I realise that now… magar, I did learn that u can truly only trust those special persons that catch ur eye like diamonds in the dust. I thank Allah S.W.T for granting me my ‘diamond’…they’re expensive and so hard to come by.
Dear Diamond,
Sparkle as you do,
Let me awe by your side.
Wherever you may go,
Keep me warm; keep me alive.
p.s. the funny thing is that this post was supposed to be about my new-found hobby of cooking. I forgot how easy it is for ones mind to drift when jotting their thoughts…there are so many things I want to say…there’s always tomorrow rite…Inshallah! See you then xx

Can’t seem to get this 1 out of my hed. Ooo nd the videoz kinda cool nd freaky 2! N.B. apologies that the lyriks r all stuk together..wordpress is doin funny things 2day..
The morning paper
Look in the mirror
On your key chain
Or in the coffee spoon
On your shirt sleeve
In the flat-screen
In your mailbox
Breathing over you
Come on baby, when will you see
That you and I were meant to be
And now I got my target on track
Baby you should know that
I’m so good at that
Run to where you want, run to where you want
I am gonna find you
There aint no distance far enough
My love’s gonna find you
Run to where you want, run to where you want
One day I’ll remind you
There aint no engine fast enough
My love’s gonna catch you
In your top drawer
In your cheque book
On your cellphone
By your easy-chair
In the next room
Behind the curtain
Can’t escape me
I’m watching everywhere
Come on baby, when will you see
‘Cause you and I were meant to be
And now I got my target on track
Baby you should know that
I‘m so good at that
Run to where you want
Run to where you want
I am gonna find you
There aint no distance far enough
My love’s gonna find you
Run to where you want, run to where you want
One day I’ll remind you
There aint no engine fast enough
My love’s gonna catch you
Why waste your energy
No point in fighting
Let you heart surrender to your destiny
And this world’s not big enough
For you to hide for long
In this game of hide and seek
There’s nowhere left to run
Run to where you want, run to where you want
I am gonna find you
There aint no distance far enough
My love’s gonna find you
Run to where you want, run to where you want
One day I’ll remind you
There aint no engine fast enough
My love’s gonna catch you
Catch You, Catch You, Catch You, catch you, catch you, catch you, catch you, catch you! ~Sophie Ellis Bextor (Catch You)
This is the third track to be released from JT’s FutureSex/Lovesounds album..nd once again..another fabulouso offering from the man. I needed a lil cheering up so had this comforting me 2 sleep last nite. Yes, I’m okay..nothing to worry about. I’m just lost in the lull of falling in love and unsure of its outcome. If you get a chance..this is a soft number..nd definately worth a listen. lovies xx
Hey girl, is he everything you wanted in a man?
You know I gave you the world
You had me in the palm of your hand
So why your love went away
I just can’t seem to understand
Thought it was me and you babe
Me and you until the end
But I guess I was wrongDon’t want to think about it
Don’t want to talk about it
I’m just so sick about it
Can’t believe it’s ending this way
Just so confused about it
Feeling the blues about it
I just can’t do without ya
Tell me is this fair?Is this the way it’s really going down?
Is this how we say goodbye?
Should’ve known better when you came around
That you were gonna make me cry
It’s breaking my heart to watch you run around
‘Cause I know that you’re living a lie
That’s okay baby ’cause in time you will find…
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
What goes around, goes around, goes around
Comes all the way back around
Now girl, I remember everything that you claimed
You said that you were moving on now
And maybe I should do the same
Funny thing about that is
I was ready to give you my name
Thought it was me and you, babe
And now, it’s all just a shame
And I guess I was wrong
Don’t want to think about it
Don’t want to talk about it
I’m just so sick about it
Can’t believe it’s ending this way
Just so confused about it
Feeling the blues about it
I just can’t do without ya
Can you tell me is this fair?
Is this the way things are going down?
Is this how we say goodbye?

Yeah
What goes around comes around
You should know that
What goes around comes around
Yeah
What goes around comes around
You should know that
Don’t want to think about it (no)

Let me paint this picture for you, baby
You spend your nights alone
And he never comes home
And every time you call him
All you get’s a busy tone
I heard you found out
That he’s doing to you
What you did to me
Ain’t that the way it goes
You cheated girl
My heart bleeds girl
So it goes without saying that you left me feeling hurt
Just a classic case
A scenario
Tale as old as time
Girl you got what you deserved
And now you want somebody
To cure the lonely nights
You wish you had somebody
That could come and make it right
But girl I ain’t somebody with a lot of sympathy
You’ll see
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
[laughs]
See?
You should’ve listened to me, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Because

Sunday meant annual majalis time, with me nd dad preening the house up, shifting furniture and breaking our bones nd all. For the first time evr, mum decided not to cook for all the mehmaan (visitors/guests) and we got pizza (halal vegi) and Pakola (my suggestion hehhe) for foodie. T’went well..
The highlight of course, or shud I say that the icing on the cake was the fact that me nieces came. I haven’t seen them 4 over a month..and the amount of huggooz nd kissess i got so totally made up 4 it. hehhe. Needless 2 say i took mucho fotografz..who knowz wen we’d meet agen.
I’ve had 2 days of holiday so far..nd its been realli peaceful both @ home nd inside of me. Itz been a while since I’ve felt so @ ease or care/stress free. Feels pretty wowieeee! I no it wont last so I promise 2 make the most of it. 2Morow is my final chutti day nd then bak 2 uni. 3 days of holiday is nothing..but 2 be honest..I really don’t mind. Am i sane?? I’m not quite sure..but it feels amazing. *smiles wholeheartedly*

Soooo…Valentines day yesterday people.. did you all have a nice one?? Hope u girlies got those roses delivered sharpish nd u men got sum cute nd cuddly smoochings in return lolz. Bahhh..i generally believe that the day is such a money-making scam..nd am one of those nuisance ppl who believe that everyday should be full of love nd thoughtful gestures (my man is gonna hav a hell of a ride hehhe). It didn’t make it any better that now that I’m no longer single, the dude happens to be away from the country. hahha..just me luk. What made it funnier was the fact that me bro came home 2 ask how many valentines cards i got. He just laughed when i said 1. Imean whatz bad with one eh? He got 4. Personally, thatz nothing 2 be proud of brother, rather it suggests that ur such a player! Mwahhaha.
Lucy came over @ lunchtime nd we went out 4 another cheesecake adventure. We’ve made a deal that cheescake divulging should be a weekly affair nd shook on it 2. Yay! We bought it home, gorged, blasted the musik up and danced. Yes, I know its Muharram…but me needed sum cheering up. Taught her sum moves…i can’t dance..nd we did a funky kinda bhangra dance-thing around my living-room, collapsing on the floor/ sofa regularly in a fit of giggles. Hahaha…was fun! The videos I’ve made are You-Tube worthy..but I shant subject us 2 any kind of humiliation.
The evening went sour thanx 2 my bro and his ‘i don’t give a dam’ attitude. Nd finally, he has agreed to do sumthing which mite bring a lil peace in2 my parents lives. Shukar hai bcz whatever hez got feeling inside needs to be dealt with in the right manner..nd in my eyes, counselling is the only option that remains.
nywhoo happy valentines xx

Lookie here!! It snowed again. As I was changing for my journey 2to uni, K called and said that we all have a day off. When I was a little girl, I also wished that school would give us a day off, that way snowballs nd so forth would ensue. I guess growing up, there seem to be more complications with snow. I swear, more than 90% of people affected end up slipping atleast once. Anyway this is a very random post in the sense that it has no real structure to it heheh.
The snow was pretty thick as I looked outta the window. Everyone was getting ready to leave and I thought that I should go and fotograf b4 the rain came and ruined all like last time. I’m not good with links..so just flip thru a couple of posts and you’ll see. Nywhoo, me bro tricked me into coming outside where he’d prepared a flurry of snowballs for his sister. “Aaarrrghhhh and Abuuuuuu,” was all she screamed as she tried to dodge his aims. Khair, me got thoroughly soaked and the ill-feeling swept right over…I don’t feel too good..Again!
Anywhoo, therez a pic of our driveway and front garden and another of my poor mum scraping the ice while I innocently avoid helping her and fotograf.
Happy Snowing To All Canadians, Britishers and wherever else snow might be falling around the world. xx

Just couldn’t get outta bed this morning. Had already formulated my plan. Evryone had left for work and school, so all I had to do was go out in the afternoon and come home my usual time/pretend that me classes had been cancelled. This was me @ 10 am, afetr sending a txt 2 me pal sayin..’I'm pulling a sickie dude. My bedz 2 damn comfy!’
Khair, my eyes seemed to open around 12:07, to the sound of a cough that sure as hell wasn’t mine…it was mumz. I was trapped. *what 2 do..what 2 do* Either she’d come home early or she’d never gone 2 work. The plan was to stay in bed and be invincible. Off all the days that mum takes a sickie off work, I just happen to take a sickie of uni. Grrr..she caught me a lil while later and arrgghh i can still hear her shouting . Accusations of ‘lazy girl…good 4 nothing…a hinderance’ and so forth. Now I’ve just sneaked downstairs while she sleeps away. Me needs sum computer time.
Anyway, I was checking out 2days news and not only has bird flu finally reached us..but today is actually known as ‘National Sickie Day’. I find that quite hilarious!
According to AOL, ‘Surveys have suggested that the first Monday in February is the worst day of the year for absenteeism, leading to it being labelled ‘National Sickie Day’.’
And guesss wot..2day is the 1st Monday in Feburary! I should show mom..but somehow I don’t think she’ll see the funny side off it, rather I’ll be hearing more daatein. Hehehe…

“You see, seeing dreams is easy. Its the realisation of them that is worth the exercise.” “And since all dreams don’t come true, a few are more than worth the effort to make it all happen.”
Thank you for your wisdom o ye wise one.
