Thats when it happened a distincnt chance encounter with the sensation of freedom. What did that sensation look like? It had an unadulterated, unassuming and pointless smile. Pointless because it wasn't because of or towards somebody, it was just because it was, with no agenda of its own. Like a lonesome wildflower on the top of a hill, with no apparent purpose, but beautiful in its 'derive-less purpose' existence.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There was fire in those eyes and a mysterious cohesion with the elements all around.

Why can’t we find the answer? Why do we suppress our curiosity? Where is this all going? Where all has it gone to so far? Where is it at right now?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So what happens when you die? Am I the only one who thinks about that, even though I write “Muslim” whenever a form asks me my religion? If I’m not the only one then why is everyone so obsessed with the accumulation of material wealth? This life is temporary, why the need for a bigger flat screen T.V? Why the struggle to save for a better car? Why lie to the beggar to afford a nicer meal? Why the fuss to find a financially settled husband? Why the designer bag and the Rolex watch?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If I really believe, why am I not out there doing everything I possibly can to earn as much divine brownie points to improve my chances to get into heaven? Why will I still wake up in the morning, convince myself that I’m working towards a better tomorrow and go through my routine for the day? Shouldn’t I be out there feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, lending a hand to the needy and standing up for a cause? Shouldn’t you? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;What if I get into heaven? Will I just spend eternity drinking from the rivers of milk and bedding the dozens of “virgins”?  Is heaven really the promise of gluttony and debauchery? Do people actually believe that they will indulge in all their fantasies in the after- life if they just control their perversion in this? Don’t they find it slightly ironic? If, in heaven, I’m supposed to get the woman I fancy in this life, then what of her? What if she doesn’t fancy spending eternity with me? Will she be a clone? If I know not any ambition, any jealousy, any vice and any sense of space/time, then will I still know lust and love? What if this life is just the test between heaven and hell? What if we’re all coming from hell and God is testing us to see if we’re ready for heaven now?  Isn’t it the easy way out to just lose ones-self in religion and shutout the real world? Isn’t that cheating the test? Is it a coincidence that belief-systems exist, when without them there would be open anarchy? Without it we would never discover what civil means to a civilization? Would we find an alternative route in our evolutionary pursuit to achieve equilibrium with our surroundings; like all living organisms? Or would we fail just the same?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I just walked out my gate tomorrow morning to go help the needy, how long will it be till I myself become one with the needy? What of my dreams? Is it a materialistic pursuit to want to see the whole world? Is it wrong to want to walk that mile to see if that really is love; this time, and not just another mirage? What is the noble pursuit? Could we exist without commerce? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Murtaza, you’re a hypocrite aren’t you? Why are you so conflicted? Does your curiosity of the after-life and its mechanics outweigh your curiosity of this life? How long before the scales tilt? Are you made of stone? Will you still wake up tomorrow in the pursuit of your own happiness? You will, wont you? Do you know something that the rest of the world doesn’t?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-4397279399513478553?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/4397279399513478553/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=4397279399513478553' title='12 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/4397279399513478553'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/4397279399513478553'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2009/03/when-absence-is-only-presence-i-think.html' title='Of things known and unknown.'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>12</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-7266937364778272261</id><published>2008-04-14T05:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-14T06:01:57.353-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Presence of Absence</title><content type='html'>Light, find yourself&lt;br /&gt;for i have lost my path.&lt;br /&gt;turn on your crimson flares&lt;br /&gt;join my quest for knowledge.&lt;br /&gt;bridge the torch and the fire.&lt;br /&gt;light, show yourself....&lt;br /&gt;you are the absence of darkness..&lt;br /&gt;Time, measure yourself&lt;br /&gt;for i shall deny you.&lt;br /&gt;deny all the memoirs you wrote in me.&lt;br /&gt;all the vows that you gave to me.&lt;br /&gt;let change be engraved in all the stillness&lt;br /&gt;in all the sadness...the dullness....&lt;br /&gt;time,heal yourself&lt;br /&gt;for presence,should you symbolise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mystery,uncloud yourself&lt;br /&gt;for my search has not yet ended;&lt;br /&gt;as the wine, it tastes unpure.&lt;br /&gt;it lacks the essence of life&lt;br /&gt;which i have turned to find...&lt;br /&gt;and in vain not shall the day die&lt;br /&gt;till such valor ,it remains inside.&lt;br /&gt;mystery, come outside&lt;br /&gt;and quench my thirst,honour my mind.&lt;br /&gt;Emptiness, fill yourself&lt;br /&gt;for i am provoked to swallow you;&lt;br /&gt;lay not like a figure of depression.&lt;br /&gt;be not a hollow cave.&lt;br /&gt;nor a faceless entity of pure thought.&lt;br /&gt;emptiness, go away&lt;br /&gt;you are an insignia of absence...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-7266937364778272261?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/7266937364778272261/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=7266937364778272261' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/7266937364778272261'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/7266937364778272261'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2008/04/presence-of-absence.html' title='Presence of Absence'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-7215911454195554027</id><published>2008-02-21T11:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-21T12:30:02.404-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Is it my turn yet?</title><content type='html'>Today i heard an old song after a long time. Things racked up in the back of my mind got dusted. I realised that some part of me is still waiting for the next moment a few years ago. I think i have in some respect refused to move on, still waiting for 'time' to work its wonder, to heal, to connect or to discover. So i sit in an outlined box by myself.. behind me all the moments covered in dust &amp;amp; weathered just preserved by my memories when they pass through ever so rarely. So i sit, hunched &amp;amp; resting my head on my knees... my clothes torn and worn out, sticking out in the vast landscape of sand and stone as the wind sways about almost driven by lust; trying to wipe away my path behind me and enriching the unknown infront of me.&lt;br /&gt;Every now and again i get up, dust myself and wander on ahead. I walk. I see. I try. I scar. I always find myself coming back to my familiar old box. It is where it got as good as it was to get for me.&lt;br /&gt;Even the mirage gave up and left as it couldnt find anything to play on anymore. I wonder when it might come back. I wonder if ultimately i would have to just wander on ahead content at gazing at someone else's hallucination.&lt;br /&gt;Where is my oasis to conjure?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-7215911454195554027?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/7215911454195554027/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=7215911454195554027' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/7215911454195554027'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/7215911454195554027'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2008/02/is-it-my-turn-yet.html' title='Is it my turn yet?'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-2970871497047612238</id><published>2007-12-09T03:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-21T11:52:19.760-08:00</updated><title type='text'>[?] (Draft written last year on some random night)</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;I wonder what it is about 'first times' that make them etched in your memory forever.

What happens when we think we've run out of firsts?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I wonder if everything in life is really black &amp;amp; white... with some shades of grey. Be born. Get an education. Get a job. Marry. Have kids. Get them an education. Die.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I wonder how many people are actually different from that one-line-life. I know almost everyone likes to say &amp;amp; imply that they are different, that theres more to them than being a glorified reproductive organism. Everyone has to have a role in the world.

I wonder if I have that sting now.&lt;br /&gt;I wonder like im supposed to in solitude. I wonder like im made to and I wonder as the t-junction of my faith and past force me to.&lt;br /&gt;There are people in the world who are made for you to like without any real reason or affection. You just like them because they create that sensation in you. I think its something to do with the bodys rocket-science or something somewhat.&lt;br /&gt;T-junctions are quiet the speed bumps when you are in a flow racing towards a particular conclusion of nothingness. They are actually a mirage of the complications underneath. A decision is never a singular decision in its entirety.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Belief is taught and not realised, maybe that’s the biggest flaw about it. Maybe it’s the way its preached or maybe that its preached in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;So what we believe to be a t-junction may in reality be a cross-road and that faith blinds as its supposed to. Straying from going on the divine hunt is what really clouds the extension of the junction. I may never know for sure unless im born from my limitations. So I wonder whose making is this womb. I wonder because im dependant on it. I wonder what it nourishes me on.&lt;br /&gt;Belief suffers when an idea is created. Its like they are from the same life force, like that once singular life force is being tampered with by ideas. Were moths to an idea’s glow, it doesn’t matter if its evil or pure, we’re consumed before we can really figure out. So what if i were born without the injection of perception as the commercial drug? Would my instincts exist? I really cant be sure. Without that injection, human nature in itself would be a voluntary vaccination. Man-made takes on a whole new meaning, personally speaking.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-116135459533912496?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/116135459533912496/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=116135459533912496' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/116135459533912496'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/116135459533912496'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2006/10/one-page-at-time.html' title='One page at a time.'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-116102112065765075</id><published>2006-10-16T10:07:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-16T10:52:00.730-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Stare at the sun.</title><content type='html'>Yesterday. Things floated in. Things I didn't want to be thinking about but was somehow forced to I suppose. Those thoughts are mainly to do with regret and figuring out if they were regrets yet or not. Those thoughts involved trying to figure out what the problem really was and why it was so.   To figure that out I had to ask questions of myself beyond those which really concerned the current dilemmas but more general, retro and personal. I had myself thinking amongst my other thoughts why I think this way that I do sometimes. This blog was written at 6 in the morning because I couldn't sleep due to a few things, which mainly included me dozing off after a hearty dinner. Then I couldn't go back to sleep after I'd woken up after a few hours so I watched some television on which I mindlessly sat through 'Happy Gilmore' &amp; 'Dogma'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why does happiness diminish relatively with age? Except for the blotch at the start when your born crying.. this reminds me of limpy's kink curve!(kinda) so after the initial kink on being born and being grumpy at the start the graph just goes downwards. I was happier at 5 than at 10 and likewise more so at 10 than 15 and so on. I make as much sense as limpy did to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyways back to the start then, I still haven't concluded all of my thinking. I'm still somewhere in between where I wanted to finish and where I'm headed. Obviously in all this I'm keeping in mind the fact if I think too much at times and yea I know that I most probably do but then I'm totally blank at other times as well so I suppose it all kind of evens itself out. The thing is that I get that superficial feeling of the need to evaluate myself. It's a chronic ailment. So this phase of evaluation involves, among other things, to figure out my current situation and consider the possibility of it being a case of   'as good as it gets' or if I could and should move on to better and brighter things. I guess one of the reasons why I do this could possibly be that I'm trying to compensate for the time Iv wasted. It could also very well be that I'm facing the challenge of being definitive in life and tackling all my demons head-on. Being the realist that I like to believe myself to be I think it's the latter. My mind will continue to go around in circles till some divine epiphany breaks the cycle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In an effort to simplify my problems by making my answer choice binary, iv concluded that I have to choose between the 'what if' and the 'what now'. At this moment in time I'm going with the 'what now'. I'm thinking that this is as good as its going to get for me, so I'm asking myself the question 'what now?'. I couldn't help but find myself in this situation when most of my cornerstones start casting shadows. I'm looking for happiness in a moment every other moment and I find it in a sitcom or in a friend's cheesy joke. Why? I'm not sure. I cant help but get the feeling that this chronic ailment is called growing up, even if its in a moment every few hundred.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the lighter side, iv joined the university footy league and we have our matches/training in the most beautiful place ever! countless football fields surrounded by green hills, a forest and an amazing lake. The pitches have the softest carpet like grass.. *nip..*  in those 90mins life IS as good as it gets and im 5 again.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-116102112065765075?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/116102112065765075/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=116102112065765075' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/116102112065765075'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/116102112065765075'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2006/10/stare-at-sun.html' title='Stare at the sun.'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-115460486760028068</id><published>2006-08-03T04:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-08-03T04:34:27.616-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Dasti &amp; the wisdom within</title><content type='html'>The return.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;... &lt;em&gt;(to be cont. )&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-115460486760028068?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/115460486760028068/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=115460486760028068' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/115460486760028068'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/115460486760028068'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2006/08/dasti-wisdom-within.html' title='Dasti &amp; the wisdom within'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-114765773461597004</id><published>2006-05-14T18:31:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-05-14T18:48:54.630-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Preface</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;      What if i told you a story? what if it wasn't about love, hate, jealousy, greed or secrecy? would you still want to read it?

A time when it would be just the spark and the enternal adoration of a stainless world. Blood, lies, illusion and temptation would only go as far as to wash away from the heat. The air would leave no scars and no ashes. The platonic existance of the wax and the flame is perfection unrivalled even by the imperfect sphere of life. Does fire always know it burns? It reaches out for warmth with innocence but time betrays whatever it touches. I think about a time when the hours exist only for the seconds. My touch is of gold but your scorched.

What is he thinking ? He's staring at that tiny insect and among a million other thoughts wonders how long it took the bug to crawl up the huge rock.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Its just contemplation. Its just that time in the series of events and moments when a piece has to be fitted in the jigsaw of self discovery. Sometimes its hard to realise what all has gone by and why, because of our involvement in all the intricacies we miss the point. In order to see the point we have to get out of our own thoughts for a moment and take on the objective view. We need to look at ourselves, our relationships, our thoughts, our journey and our place as a speck in the world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The sun has decided. Its time to go home. "your a control freak", he says to the sun and grudgingly climbs down the rock. The wind blows his hair in front of his eyes and the sun responds by clipping on its veil of clouds. He almost slips. "nice try".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;There's music playing in the cave midway. There’s been a heartbreak. The ghost dances to that same song. The boy had heard it once before. He has an impulse to join in. He wishes he had a way to relieve his blues by just a dance but he would have to die first. The song stops and the ghost fades. The song was sweet and the dance was pure, he's tempted but he cant sin. The rocky floor is scared, for the jagged marks stick out in the receding light. The rocks have felt the music more than once. The cave is worth a look as it doesn’t appear to get any darker the deeper it gets, the light shows respect to it in uniformity.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;He doesn't bother to check the time; he's past that. He's not scared to walk into the unexpected and the unexplored; he's past that. Sometimes when you've been hit bad with a dose of unexpected reality you realise that time and emotion are trivial in the bigger picture, they dont matter unless you want them to. He's realised this. Another cliché, another heartbreak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;We've all been created together in this world; living and non-living things, darkness and light, souls and ghosts. Existence should be able to overlap without consequence and conscience. So why care about fear of the unexpected and the conjunction of time with its experience? he knows this now. He is only governed by the impulse of his wonder.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Why have there been more dances in this cave? what is this place? why am i drawn to it?. He feels all his questions will be answered once he enters the cave. He's suppressed his memories so deep and so much that for random moments in time, he stops thinking altogether.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;'I should have been born in simpler times', as soon as he thinks this he notices a shadow on the walls. Its not a shadow but paintings depicting a hunted animal being offered to a woman by a man then the two figures are drawn as one, apparently showing union. His pupils shrink and the boy phases out; a suppressed memory has been triggered. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;'An offering... how typical! how can we look down upon materialism when its part of our root human nature? Nothings for free, you have to offer to receive!'. A random scar; revealed as he grits his teeth. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;'I want the car keys on the table when i get out of the shower !', 'Yes sir', 'Where'r the keys??', 'The driver has gone to drop something off at your grandmother's place in the car', 'BUT I TOLD YOU GET THE KEYS 20 MINS AGO !', 'Sorry sir'- -* its getting late, she must be waiting* -- 'Which car is outside right now?', 'the old one sir, but its leaking water inside, the driver has to go get it fixed' -- *buzz* "hello?, yea im on my way..yea.. i`ll call when i get there" -- 'get me the keys'.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;'Hi, im there', 'Turn left and you`ll see me standing outside', 'yea i see you', ' is that you in the white car?', 'yea', 'oh... okay', -- *pleasantries &amp; awkward silence as her shoes get wet in the leaking water from the a.c which isnt working and its the middle of june* -- *shes never going to see me again after this*-- 'did you even shave?', 'erm no,i shaved yesterday' -- *Shaved that day, not my fault my stuble shows*-- 'this was great! thank you', 'urm yea im sorry it just didnt turn out the way i wanted it to', 'oh! dont worry it was all good!', 'sorry about your shoes', 'Goodbye then ! see you soon', 'yea, bubye... see you soon' -- *driving home thinking of what excuse to use to end it with her, but before something pops up she calls* -- 'hello! yea i was just going to call you..', ' umm, i dont think this will work out..', ' yea i understand..take care.. bubye' -- *so much for being myself, will i now be complexed with what i drive and what i wear to avoid a situation like this? ... am i good enough? will i ever be? *. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;He snaps out of the trance, there's life in his eyes yet. He tried living the materialistically conscience life for a bit, but it wasn't worth it. There's moss stuck to his hands from touching the wall. 'Who needs to buy expensive faded and dirty lookin jeans', he thinks as he wipes his fingers with his jeans resulting in a cool looking smear. A sniffy half smile; 'materialism - zero, me - one'. An insignificant triumph, another few steps and another random scar.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-114100974080309809?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/114100974080309809/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=114100974080309809' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/114100974080309809'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/114100974080309809'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2006/02/random-scars-1.html' title='Random Scars - 1'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-113989516521796585</id><published>2006-02-13T21:20:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-02-13T21:32:45.246-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Random Codes</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;"Maps" &lt;/strong&gt;Pack up&lt;strong&gt;I'm straightEnough&lt;/strong&gt;Oh, say say sayOh, say say sayOh, say say sayOh, say say say&lt;strong&gt;Oh, say&lt;/strong&gt; say sayWait, they don't love you like i love you&lt;strong&gt;Wait&lt;/strong&gt;, they don't love you like i love youMa-a-a-a-ps, wait!

The law of torts is a tricky subject whereby im attracted to the beacon of life in her eyes which has this magnetic effect on me! i need to start playing soccer somewhere otherwise the walk to the fish and chip shop is going to be a guilt trip to cardiff to check out teh stuff on sale there as i prepare to sit down and give my open book exam in the morning with nothing in my head that the wind, the earth and the sheep.&lt;br /&gt;My favourite word in the english language has to be PULSAR. she reminds me of a pulsar. How come i only remember things which i can relate or link to her. I know i wont get any answers here as my friends have turned my blog into an advertising board for malik pco, ah yes :D good times with malik pco! the rowdy bunch are back from a night of clubbin in cardiff and i ask myself if the silver spoon is going to jump over the cow or if i have time to watch top gun because i really feel like listening to its songs which i cant seem to download because the feckin university guys have blocked the p2p network and shit and the computer seems slightly a bit slowish to me now, i mean like a 0.1% difference i think, but i should scan everything out and remove all the software i dont need. I need to find myself a job, its just that i walked all the way to town today because i didnt want to cook and its been a while since iv been to a club, i should go this saturday! horse smsed that he got his ipod! good, he has exactly 6months to enjoy it before the hand of fate swoops in and gives him a reality check. yes i consider myself to be a sort of superhero and i was wearing this twatman t-shirt all day today and shes nice and all but the law of torts its interesting...i should call her tommorow, i cant expect things to just fall into my lap which is pretty nice when it happens though :D  theres a gents night tommorow when 2 strippers are performing almost next door, but im going to a rags party!&lt;br /&gt;Finished readin khushwant singh`s " Death at my doorstep" it was as usual another extremely interesting book by him. Always a good read, mostly because of the unedited statement of his thoughts. Writes what was exactly in his head. I wonder how shes doing now, i hope shes better now..i did bad and winnie the pooh is just so irritatingly cute. Tommorow i sign a contract to move into this house from sept. Cool house.. it`ll be good to live in a more open space, but i guess i`ll miss the residence with all its frequently interesting events. Two shers in khushwant singhs book really stuck in my head, i know why i remembered only these two.. the first was :&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;em&gt;Na pooch kaun hain, kyon raah mein laachar baithey hain&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;musafir hain, safar karnay kee tamanna haar baithay hain&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;( Dont ask me who i am, why i sit helplessly by the roadside&lt;br /&gt; I am a traveller who has lost the will to go to my destination )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iv lost the will,yet i remain a traveller..ill reason to myself and pick myself up walk the distance again. Maybe im scared that my destination is nothing but a pulsar from the past.. a mirage. Should i fight the urge to let go of hope and face it ? why am i a pessimist? i wont get to know myself if i dont go through it. Its amazing how i dont even know myself completely yet, why am i a mystery to myself? or is it just a relflection i see on myself of my (hopefully not) mirage? random playlist.. a schiller song.. heh.. always gets you thinkin things you push in the back of your mind when you listen to hiphop or most other popular genres of music. schiller - i feel you, knows how to express himself i suppose.  I remember another sher in the book, by iqbal .. reminds me of how differnt i am from her yet how similar i precieve it to be.. :&lt;br /&gt; &lt;em&gt; Main to jalta hoon ke muzmir meyree fitrat main soze&lt;br /&gt; Tu ferozaan hai keh parvano se ho sanda teyra.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;( I burn because it is in my nature to do so&lt;br /&gt; Moths are drawn to you because with warmth you glow )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wrote this sher to noon and he caught up on the most important thing.. parvana .. an interesting creature.. dies trying to get the very thing it strives for. I wonder if schezad mughal is working on a new album! me and asim are the only ones who seem to listen to him! I have to climb this hill, its just sitting out there through my window just beggin to be climbed ! next week hopefully! Eid today, or so i heard. i wonder what jugal bandi means. i wonder why i ask myself so many questions.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-113703301517173388?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/113703301517173388/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=113703301517173388' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/113703301517173388'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/113703301517173388'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2006/01/random-gibberish.html' title='Random gibberish'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-113508510056906668</id><published>2005-12-20T05:22:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-20T05:28:34.663-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Random Sonnet</title><content type='html'>I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,&lt;br /&gt;or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.&lt;br /&gt;I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,&lt;br /&gt;in secret, between the shadow and the soul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you as the plant that never blooms&lt;br /&gt;but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;&lt;br /&gt;thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,&lt;br /&gt;risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.&lt;br /&gt;I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;&lt;br /&gt;so I love you because I know no other way&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;than this: where I does not exist, nor you,&lt;br /&gt;so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,&lt;br /&gt;so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;~ Pablo Neruda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-113508510056906668?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/113508510056906668/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=113508510056906668' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/113508510056906668'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/113508510056906668'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2005/12/random-sonnet.html' title='Random Sonnet'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-113475070938559806</id><published>2005-12-16T08:20:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-16T08:31:49.410-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Random song</title><content type='html'>&lt;em&gt;Song to the siren&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the floating, ship less oceans&lt;br /&gt;I did all my best to smile&lt;br /&gt;till your singing eyes and fingers&lt;br /&gt;drew me loving into your eyes&lt;br /&gt;And you sang "Sail to me, sail to me;&lt;br /&gt;Let me enfold you.&lt;br /&gt;"Here I am, here I am waiting to hold you.&lt;br /&gt;Did I dream you dreamed about me?&lt;br /&gt;Were you here when I was full sail?&lt;br /&gt;Now my foolish boat is leaning, broken lovelorn on your rocks.&lt;br /&gt;For you sang, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow.&lt;br /&gt;"Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow.&lt;br /&gt;I'm as puzzled as a newborn child.&lt;br /&gt;I'm as riddled as the tide.&lt;br /&gt;Should I stand amid the breakers?&lt;br /&gt;Or shall I lie with death my bride?&lt;br /&gt;Hear me sing: "Swim to me, swim to me, let me enfold you."&lt;br /&gt;"Here I am.

I don't get &lt;br /&gt;on with my real ladder &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went to a restaurant that serves 'breakfast at any time'. So I ordered &lt;br /&gt;French toast during the Renaissance &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I was bullied at school, called all kinds of different names but &lt;br /&gt;one day I turned to my bullies and said - 'Sticks and stones may break &lt;br /&gt;my bones but names will never hurt me', and it worked! &lt;br /&gt;From there on it was sticks and stones all the way &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Dad used to say 'always fight fire with fire', which is probably why &lt;br /&gt;he got thrown out of the fire brigade &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sex is like a game of bridge: If you don't have a good partner, you'd &lt;br /&gt;better have a good hand &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I saw six men kicking and punching the mother-in-law.

"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;eggs, cheese, butter and bread - my diet for the past week. i ran out of chicken and i cant be bothered to goto town and buy more. i`v been hooked to this song by james blunt since iv been here, hes like the new big thing here.. its " your beautiful" .. i listen to it because i can relate to it in a weird way.  &lt;em&gt;"i saw your face in a crowded place.. and i dont know what to do.. coz i`ll.."&lt;/em&gt;  it hits base =/.  someone asked me why i write blogs the other days, like what purpose they served. i kinda linked it to her having a phone conversation with her friends, like why does she do it ? to talk , to let stuff out and confide in friends... thats what i do here i suppose.. i cant talk to my friends from here.. but i need to get whatever im thinking out of my system , because i really dont like to think much , im happy in a blissful state of nothingness. thats the best =] , its like your young again , i have no worries, im living in the moment. i see the sky , i see the pattern in which the rain falls, i follow it up till sight dissapears into the dark sky . i notice the trees, i notice the colors.. im open to the effect of my surroundings.. i notice the the dual tones of the lush green hills.. one in the sun and the rest in the shade..i love the way it excites my senses.  so i write what i think, i onfide to my friends - you might say this is publically accessable, but i write more inbetween the lines that i do in appearance. i make alot of blatant spelling mistakes, i sometimes wonder how i made it to uni. without ever learning how to write, how to spell and most of all about that crap grammar! i still have no clue about any of the rules...  so i write unedited to portray my thoughts, i have my one way phone conversation this way... sometimes i write my soul , but im not worried about privacy.. i think its over-rated anyways.. respect is more important than privacy.  why should you care about what people know about you? is it going to effect you in any way? not unless you let it. if its not a physical effect, then its a self inflicted effect, because you control whatever you let bother you, i choose not to let most stuff bother me. No matter what someone knows about me or think , i`ll continue to live. my fate is predecided.. i try not to worry , no tention..  because the least i can do is walk my predestined path with a smile. thats the least anyone can do.&lt;br /&gt;i came across this.. it made me think..so i have to write it out of me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt; "  our external symbols must always express the life within us with absolute precision; how could they do otherwise, since that life has generated them? therefor we must not blame our poor symbols if they take forms that seem trivial to us or absrud for... the nature of our life alone has determined their forms.

For almost 2 decades someone or the other (read : mom) has been telling me what to do and now suddenly there just blank silence. Theres no one to judge my early morning excuses and i was never high on a moral conscious. I woke up from the alarm at 7:30 in the morning.. i wasnt feeling great but if i pushed myself harder i wouldv survived the workshop at 8, by instinct i came up with the excuse "im sick..iv got a fever..blahblah"..without Sgt. Mom i knew the excuse was just a formality to keep my vague sense of right and wrong from eroding.&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of people telling me what to do, i was playing soccer yesterday and the ref. was this stocky scottish bloke! Instead of keeping the game in check he was trying to instigate a brawl! everytime i would make a strong tackle he`d, instead of telling me to keep it cool, say " thats the way! cmon lad get into it!" ( khattak wouldv liked him)&lt;br /&gt;I saw a ghost in my room the other day. Maybe i was hallucinating as a result of being lonely in my room without a laptop (and hot blond girl) and a massive lack of sleep. Loneliness gets to you sometimes. It gets you so bad that you start to think. Yes, think. I was up late last night, couldnt sleep. I started to think about how i got here. I remembered a time 3 months ago when i had a similar discussion with myself, back then i mapped out all the possibilities and options i had for what i thought the future could hold for me. This one right here, the one possibility im living right now, was never an option. Fate in one instance in described.. :&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; "&lt;em&gt; walk any path in destiny`s garden and you will be forced to choose not once but many times. The paths fork and divide with each step you take through destiny`s garden you make a choice ; and every choice determines future paths. However, at the end of a lifetime of walking you might look back and see only one path stretching out behind you ; or look ahead, and see only darkness." - Neil Gaiman , ' The Sandman '.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next step i take will put me on a path which would cross the path of a hot blonde girl :D. hehe.. theres this spanish (looks so) chick sitting on the pc next to me and is constantly peeping at my window! This can mean one of three random possiblities:&lt;br /&gt;1. Shes cross-eyed&lt;br /&gt;2. She finds my post more interesting than this document she has open with biological lookin diagrams and lotsa blah blah.&lt;br /&gt;3. She wants me.&lt;br /&gt;          so hey spanish chick if your reading this, buy me a cup coffee and i`ll tell you why cats smile..&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-113051523274992403?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/113051523274992403/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=113051523274992403' title='10 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/113051523274992403'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/113051523274992403'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2005/10/buy-me-cup-of-coffee.html' title='Buy me a cup of coffee..'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>10</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-113008077981145510</id><published>2005-10-23T08:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-10-23T08:19:39.816-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Captains Log Stardate 231005</title><content type='html'>heres the lowdown..&lt;br /&gt;sunday! reading day =/ ..lotsa work piled up to read through!  oh well..it was an interesting week for me.

Hmmm... also i had this other problem that someone who lived in the room above mine made ALOT of noise during the night (*shagging) and then some in the morning ..on weekends especially.. i was thinking of telling that person to keep it down, above my floor is the girls floor, so i presumed it would be some girl.. turns out .. above me lives the resident tutor and her boyfriend, WHO is the captain of the rugby team and is HUGE.. he could eat me alive without burping.&lt;br /&gt;* Mr. Warf set co-ordinates to ......&lt;br /&gt;                                                                                                                                       ......... bye :D&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-113008077981145510?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/113008077981145510/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=113008077981145510' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/113008077981145510'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/113008077981145510'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2005/10/captains-log-stardate-231005.html' title='Captains Log Stardate 231005'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-112954350485040156</id><published>2005-10-17T02:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-10-17T03:05:04.856-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Captains log. star-date 171005</title><content type='html'>Exploring new lands is expensive!

Time is beyond me.&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes i wonder whatever happend to the past. I wonder why it just stopped. Why is not something continuous. Is it something so continuous that its evolution instead of augmenting on it ,on the contrary diminishes it. I wonder because the past comes back in seldom patches. Like a sudden gust of wind which refreshes you but at the same time leaves you in a static state of anti-climax in which you wonder.&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes the past passes through me. Sometimes i smell that fragrence of summer when i used to be a kid. The aura that used to be when i was carefree and careless. I wonder why that is. How can summer be differentiated through time. Maybe its my state of mind. Maybe sometimes im so caught up in this world , which is designed like a net in which if your not caught up and dragged forward ..............&lt;br /&gt;I ate rice today. Its significance extends beyond my will to live. I tasted the past in one bite. I cant explain that. I wonder if its because of the evolution in the agriculture sector. I wonder why one bite. Why not the whole helping.&lt;br /&gt;Nostalgia.

'dastiism is holding on'.. hopefully in my next post i shall venture into a doctrine unprecedented  and unexplored by mankind. A code... a sense of being.. a state of acheiving and a dipiction of preception. I shall unravel the mysteries of what, why and how coupled with resolute and ancient theories like the " Two Woman Theory ", " Solid Theory" and many more. Let this posting serve as a caution, a warning if you may.. Dastiism is not for the weak hearted and the moderate. Let me pose a conundrum to you, why do you think man has not figured out the meaning of life? Because if the meaning was figured out, then ' life' would cease to exist and then purpose will take birth. Friends.. foes.. Dastiism will impregnate you with purpose.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12740832-111748129390746488?l=dasti.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/feeds/111748129390746488/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=12740832&amp;postID=111748129390746488' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/111748129390746488'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12740832/posts/default/111748129390746488'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dasti.blogspot.com/2005/05/unleashed-almost.html' title='unleashed - almost'/><author><name>Murtaza</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03384371853957706360</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6eOqI13C-_c/THEQM9vF9eI/AAAAAAAAAAM/jfnhVFm7BCc/S220/ALIM4440.JPG'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12740832.post-111701504302343563</id><published>2005-05-25T02:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-05-25T02:57:23.026-07:00</updated><title type='text'>E.T.A 2 Days.. - these days..</title><content type='html'>2 days till my exams finish..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;i was walkin around just a face in the crowd..tryin to keep myself out of the rain..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;saw a vagabond king wearin a styrofoam crown..wondered if i might end up the same..&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;theres a man out on the corner.. singin old songs about change..&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;everybodys got their cross to bare thes days..&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;

This is all noons fault..i`v become a wuss.As long as im in this confessional mood ; I LOVE BSB !! WOHOO ! :D  ..&lt;br /&gt;so Intreaking! (*star treck android flashback !) that im criticising myself for writting blogs while writting one!  *hah.. irony.. my weird friend.&lt;br /&gt;These days im trying to fininsh my perp for my contract law exam, but while doing contract , the criminal law book starts looking really interesting (vice versa otherwise!) . So anyways everyones so caught up in their studies these days trying to remember hunderds of cases for each subject.. but here i am doing my " dear diary " for the day for no apparent reason other than providing me with an excuse ( intellectual stimulation)  so i wont have to back to the " table" (cf  the chair - capital punishment) . the only case which seems to stick in my memory is that of " Pithum Vs. Hehl " maybe because it sounds funny ..because nothing really interesting happened in it. But there is this case ; its regarded as theft if you pickup abandoned golf balls in a golf course because they still remain the property of the club , so this genius dressed up in a frogman costume , jumped in a lake and gathered lotsa golf balls and when they caught him he said they cant possiblly hold animals responsible. its very stupid, yes, but let me tell you.. when your locked up in one room surrounded by books and an ugly wallpaper.. it really makes your day when a case this stupid comes across ! i finished reading the biography of Khushwant Singh ; Truth, love &amp; a little Malice ..  brilliant book! that man lived an interesting life and wrote it even more interestingly ! i came acorss this stanza by Iqbal .. which inspired him when he hit rock bottom... it read :&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Jahaan mein ahle-eemaan soorat-khursheed jeetay hain&lt;br /&gt;Idher doobey, udher nikley ; Udher doobey, idher nikley&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt; i understood it quickly because of the translation in english which was provided in the book which i dont remember ! but it kinda means that a man of faith cant be held down for long,  he goes down in one instance and rises up the next.&lt;br /&gt;
