...

Just found out, the girl that was brutally gang raped and tortured before being thrown off a moving bus (read below) has passed away last night.

Its beyond belief that such a thing can still happen in todays world.What is the worth of a human life after all?

may your soul rest in peace and the 6 been given the worst of worst punishments for some sort of justice for you,but no amount of punishment can bring you back to life or the lifelong pain away from those close to you.may god be by their side at such difficult times.

What is India going to do?

Speaking about the latest heinous act of the Delhi gang rape (Those who are unaware,read this :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Delhi_gang_rape_case) brings out many questions, not tough ones but simple questions which answers are tough.How can such a heinous act happen in a country boasting the world's largest democracy? What is India doing to stop such crimes and what in the world is wrong with India? Incredible India my ass, its filthy dirty,with pigs roaming the road and man pissing on walls.Uncivilized,backwards,frauds and just pure headache to deal with.But they will tell you India is the best country in the world.In a country where the people of the South hate the North and the individual states has more power than the Federal Goverment, causing states Chief Ministers to rule like they own the state, like gangsters.Link to Mafia,crime,bribery in the open.yada yada yada,I can go on forever.


Bottom line, is that I want my 2 Questions answered.

How is India planning to charge the 6 barbaric scums?

And what is the county going to do about the social ranking of women, their safety and well being for the future?


But it wouldn't suprise me totally if they all forget about the gang rape by the time Shah Rukh Khan's next movie hits the theater.Fucking morons.


, the last few lines seems a maybe outrageous but proper solution to end the suffering of the women of India 

One of the many candlelight vigils being held in India and around the world,thoughts and prayers for the brave girl who is fighting for her life at the moment.

Merry Xmas & Happy New Year!

Though I dont have the amount of time like I used too, Xmas is the time of the year where you find yourself most relaxed,doing things that you like to do the most.And that's why Im here.

Also,being the last week of the year,its the right time to reflect on the year.In all it has been a very progressive year, the year started with quite a bang when I got an offer to work overseas and at that time, was quite the exciting news.Was a chance of a lifetime,not only to finally work as an engineer but also working as an engineer in the middle east.Within the first week,I was sent packing,and boy did my perception of life changed after that.


The whole year has been about Sat to Thursdays and sleeping on fridays.There were the good times in the beginning where my geng of 4 sekawan used to roam Doha city every friday in search of excitement.That excitement lasted about 2 months.Haha.And things got pretty serious at work, and under tutelage of able and  dedicated seniors like Edwin and Ang, learning to become an Engineer became an enjoyable experience with very little ups and more downs,but hey,its the downs that teaches you the best.And it kind of did, after almost a year here in Qatar, it feels like I have gradually transformed to be a more responsible,reliable and trustworthy person to carry a task.So in that sense, its been a great year.And ofcourse,wouldnt deny the financial part.From being on a daily 5rm budget while being unemployed,shisha-ing every other day in Subang,its a stark contrast.With God's grace,there is enough bread on the table to eat, to feed those around me and to save most of it for rainy days ahead.


Things have also seemed great with family,with good times, and mostly being away, thought one that you shouldn't take your loved ones for granted as for the toughest times,its they who often the ones that stick around. Both brothers ended the year with good news, Renveer finally did his eye operation,though he remains a kenjer as ever,and Roshen got a new job with a big ass O & G company. Sangeeta is also doing well with Mummy's quest to find her a boy.HEHEHE.And Mummy seems to be really happy that we are all on our feet,working earning and as Mummy always does, she has started to find another reason to worry.To get everyone worried.Haha.And my dad will always be my dad.In punjabi we say,kutthey dhi puch kadhi sidhi nahi hundhi,and I say Kuttey dhi puch sidhi hoju bhi,mere daddy kadhi sidha nahi honwalla.Hahaha..and last but not the least is our nikka kenjer,Leon the Terrorizing Cat...he has got soo fat this year,and now is no longer interested in catching rafia strings attached to its tail (Parveen pls note,if ur reading)


And, God's been kind.I finally feel settled,loved and loving someone special.God bless us.Due to the censorship board of Punjabi bigmouths,this paragraph has been cut short.
So in short, it might be a year of camels,desert,work work work and boredom compared to previous hi flying years of drinking and wasting time at mamaks, its still been a great year, with an awesome Europe trip, and 2 great trips back home.Being more stable in life and more serious about reaching the top,being someone and great family friends,and true love.What more can a man ask for?



Merry Xmas everyone, and a HAPPY NEW YEAR everybody!

Back to here

So its back to working at the primary office, which means 8 to 5 in a zombie like quiet but deadly environment where the only salvation for an ounce of life would be the short trip to the pantry to make coffee.No Im not complaining about work,I always believed that nothing comes for free in life, a philosophy thought to me by our very own Sami vellu.Once,when asked about the constant rising of toll prices by reporters,he  said "Ini dunia apa pun tada percuma,ama kasi lahir juga percuma".Wise words indeed.

Anyways,back to my story, yeah,Im not complaining about work,I believe in putting in your best,and thinking on how to put your best so that it benefits your company and you.Its the office environment which is straining to my head, a quiet environment where everybody seems to be hard at work,sitting at their desks,dwindling with their pens,thinking of what best to do after work today.yup,most employees cant be forced.A work environment like this is not healthy.This situation explains why most Japanese companies make you sing and dance to a Japanese exercise song in the morning,no matter how weird that might look.It is healthy.


I think the short trip to the pantry to make coffee will not be able to give my head a break from the work.Its not that I dont want to work,its just that I dont want to work continously without a break for 4hours.I dont operate at optimum level at this conditions but what the heck,neither is my father the director or Im striking the 4D any time soon.So I guess I dont really have a choice, will just have to suck it up,adjust and adopt to this new environment and keep on working hard.Gambate!!


Adios my amigos,I will return to talk more cock if I get stressed.Have a dreat gay everybody.

The Malaysian Flag

Where have you seen the Malaysian flag last?

Infact, how often do you see a Malaysian flag or any sort of symbols depicting the 'Jalur Gemilang'?
If you say offices,schools or any other offices,I find that flag rising hardly to be attributed to individuals who want to fly them or merely have to raise them due to circumstances.I am a Malaysian, who have lived in Malaysia for 24 years before moving abroad to work in Qatar for the last 10 months, forget Malaysia for a moment. I live with quite a number of Malaysians and I would say Doha has a sizeable amount of Malaysians, enough to have our very own Malaysian restaurant, 'Sri Kebaya'.

Enough to suggest that being far away and constantly missing our motherland, we would fly the flag as a symbol of pride.But seriously, nobody does.Nobody.None.Zip,Zilch,Null.Zero.As in I have not seen a single Malaysian flag except that time we went to the Moto GP and some guys brought the flag in support of our Malaysian rider.Other than that,not a single flag. And I cant simply figure out why.Earlier, I saw a Thailand flag flying proud at my work site, and to think there are only a handful of Thai nationals here,it is quite a shameful reminder to the kind of Malaysians we might be.

Back to Malaysia, I would not ask how often we fly the Malaysian flag and most answers would come back, we do mahh,u never see ahh, merdeka day time lohh....on top my house antena got, on my car hood oso got, that time malaysia play football against Indonesia aso i got carry to Bukit Jalil..

Is that once a year,hype of flying the Jalur Gemilang coz its fancy and posting on facebook about how awesome ur country is,and happy bday Malaysia enough? Its like every year, Malaysians go into August with a big sense of Malaysian pride,mainly fueled by Petronas sentimental adverts and repeat of Sudirman's Tanggal 31 song. 

And what happens next?
What happens on the 1st of September?

On the 1st of every year, every Malaysian stops being Malaysian till the next August coz Cuti Merdeka sudah habis lah,esok kene balik kerje kind of attitude happens.Where is the sense of nationalism in us? Where is the pride and love for our country? Hasnt singing or in some cases, lip snycing the Negeraku every Monday's morning assembly at school done nothing to instill national pride in the minds and hearts of young Malaysians.

It is indeed very shameful to admit and accept the truth that unlike the Germans who pride their flag at every job site, location they work or live, we Malaysians don't even do it in our own Tanah tumpahku.

Before I can point fingers to others, I accept that I have not been loyal and flying the flag but to fix things, I just printed the Malaysian flag, I am going to stick it at the back of my safety helmet and to my beloved mother land, Malaysia.Here's some respect for you!

Updates

And I am back.

Its been months since I left blogging, work and personal life had kept me occupied.A lot has happened in the past 5 months and a lot has changed too, working life has sub-consciously crept into my head and got me thinking about the more serious things in life.In all, what has happened has made a more serious man out of me and drawn out a mentally tougher character.Has been a roller coaster ride.

I finally took a vacation back in June and went to Europe for a trip, or was it heaven, can't decide.Nearly got a tattoo but didn't instead got a lip piercing.And had a heck of a good time.Ill upload the photos and write about my travels later on.

In terms of family and friends,I've been blessed by the Gods with the best a man can have and recently went back home to Malaysia for holidays and had the time of my life.Got back to Qatar on the 1st of September,without any sign of my luggage, respectfully lost by the incompetent staff of Biman Bangladesh (more on them to come) and its all work work work since then.

Celebrated my 25th birthday in the desert,with nothing much but another working day but that didn't stop people back home,mom dad brothers sisters friends love from showing their love.The day wasn't really any different till they made the difference.

On a non me-related matter,the English and European league started back in July and thank the Gods for creating the beautiful game, keeps me occupied most of my time here.United has started out slow,defensively incapable in an other wise perfect squad.More to write about football as well.

I guess that is all the updates for now.Thanks for reading and I'l be back with more stuff,articles and pictures., meanwhile here's a pic of a potato for you.

Guess who's back?

Finally Im back.

Been quite a while now,hasn't it?

I left the blog-o-sphere a few months back, a time during I needed to get away things but now I am back,and so is this blog.

Recently, I celebrated my 25th birthday and I told myself that this is the birthday gift Im giving myself.
No,not blogging. I prefer freedom of speech and thoughts.

Till the next post amigos.Adios!

Only certain animals :)




Few animals have passed the mirror test. Most animals are unable to recognize themselves in the mirror. Among those that pass the test are humans, apes, orcas, dolphins, and elephants. It would be interesting to see them perform the test on orcas and dolphins in water.



Pigs can use information seen in the mirror but are unable to recognize themselves. Pigeons can be trained to recognize themselves and use the mirror to see more things. Capuchin monkeys, however, are incapable of spontaneously recognizing themselves. Sadly, humans are the only animals that use mirrors for taking deceiving self-portraits to put on social networks,hahaha!

Hard work pays

 Its lunch hour and usually I take this time to nap like a 4year old instead of writing a blog post.

That surely must mean there is something , mesti ada udang di sebalik maggi mee,why would a sleep lover leave his nap to blog if not because he has something important to announce.

Are you ready for this?


I am getting married!!!




Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.....



actually im not,not that stupid.......hahahaha...


its just that I got awarded Ex-gratia,something that companies gives to employees for being hard working and dedicated.This is the second month running I got it,just felt like boasting...hehehe..so just sit there and continue reading...hahaha!

On a more serious note,it really does feel satisfying,knowing that the company acknowledges all your hard work and efforts that you put in.As satisfying as gulping down a whole can of frozen Coke after being sun burned by the Qatari weather.

Thank you boss,if you are reading this,which I doubt..and if you are,please dis-regard all other posts regarding you.That wasnt me! Hahaha....

And thanks Edwin,appreciate it man.

Things like this make me want to skip lunch and work all day long,hahaha...but nahh Im just kidding,I love my afternoon naps...Yawwwnn....but yeah, Il keep pushing for next months award..hehe

Ohh by the way, the award is 1000Qatar Riyals, which are equivalent to probably 830Ringgit Malaysia and NO,I am not giving you any of this eventhough you took the effort to read what Im posting!

Hahaha...

But Ill let you have a look at my money...hehehe

United's Young Stars Will Come Of Age

That dramatic final day of the league will remain etched in my memories for as long as time can hold,painful sharp sword piercing looking at the net bulge when Sergio Aquero scored the last minute winner.

Honestly,I felt like throughout the season,Manchester City were the better team,in terms of quality of players they have and the type of football they have played.The two players I admire the most in City is David Silva and Vincent Kompany. Such players are indispensable to any club,players that make difference.

However much they or anybody else deserve it,there is this love for United.Which makes fools like us keep faith,season by season, even things aren't as good as how they used to be.Especially this season, many reasons contributed to such a poor season.

If dissected properly, you could see the main reason United weren't as strong was because the average squad age of players had a big gap between them.The matured,experienced players were much older,while those young emerging stars barely found their foot.

The best example of this was in defence, where you can see old legs of Rio Ferdinand and Patrice Evra,failing many times this season.While the young emerging players such as Chris Smalling of 22years old,Phil Jones of 20 years old and the Da Silva twins of 21 years old and the exceptionally talented David De Gea of 22 years old did better than expected, however, not good enough YET to be a part of a Championship winning team.This wide gap in age difference combined with the absence of the heart and rock of defence, Nemanja Vidic really caused a wide instability in defence.

We lost the league on goal difference.However great City's attacking threats might be,it is unbelievable that a squad that possesses 4 world class strikers in Dzeko,Tevez,Aquero and Ballotelli had scored less goals than a squad that only has Wayne Rooney,Chicharito and Danny Welbeck,a yet to be proven goal scorer.

Scoring more goals is a tradition at United but sadly, this season, instead of winning 4-0's, we had plenty of games where we have won 4-2, and 3-2, highlighting the main issue was really at defence.

Many impatient fans would urge Fergei to buy defenders, but a wise man would look at the players we have right now in defence, David De Gea-Spain's U21 European Championship winning goal keeper, who has  done termendously well since moving to the Premiership.Bare in mind, the boy is only 22 years old and has only moved to play in a physical league for 1 season. Towards the ending of the season, you could see him making brilliant saves that we used to see from Van Der Sar.Many idiots would say he cost us the tittle, but I have been watching Premiership football week in week out for the last 8 years,I know a quality goal keeper when I see one.David is one.Numero Uno.

At central defence, we have Chris Smalling , who has potential,especially Smalling, who has the physical threat to push off even the heaviest of forwards,such as Bobby Zamora,agility to move around and the aerial ability to head out crosses.The only thing that is missing from his game is the positional sense, which comes to most defenders by age.Like wine,great defenders mature with age.


Phil Jones needs no more introduction, neither he needs to be praised for how he has transformed from a regular 19 year old playing for Blackburn Rovers to playing for England in the coming Euro's.He has the speed, the physical ability, the strength to take on players, and a very good set of foot that can be used for both tackling and dribbling.And all that at the age of 20, he is just a world class player,waiting to bloom.Perhaps, the most promising young player at United at the moment.Definitely, one for the future.


Da Silva twins has been at the club for nearly 4 years now and judging by how they play, they are good tacklers, fast attacking wing backs,however patience is missing from the game and positional sense as well.Fabio is going out on loan, hope that will do him much good.I am not very confident about Fabio, however I think Rafael would be at the club for a long time, as a part of the next League winning squad.


In all,our defence might seem patchy with old players leaving and young players yet to step in.However, this is United, a place where the young are groomed for the future, and in all this young players, I can see the core of the next United Great squads emerging.Give them 2 seasons and Manchester United will have a stronger than ever squad,with older players such as Nani,Young,Valencia,Carrick,Fletcher,Rooney leading the way while core of the squad will be made of players like Chicharito,Welbeck,Anderson,Cleverley,Jones,Smalling,De Gea and Da Silva twins.

In them, we have a complete squad,young they might be today, but at United,thats how we groom Championship winning teams.With patience, not with money thrown around like a certain neighbours of ours.

Thats what make us proud when we win tittles, not arrogance.

Don't hate us because we do a good job in bringing youth,building squads and winning trophies.Hate us if we buy players with high price and win trophies,because frankly speaking,thats when the romance of the beautiful game is killed.

Ek ladki

Ek ladki ko chaaha 
 Apno ki tarha humne

Ek ladki ko dekha tha
Taron ki tarha humne

Ek ladki ko samjha tha
Phoolon ki tarhaa humne

Din us ki liye paitha tha
Aur uski hai thi ratain

Rang uska gulab jaisa tha
Zulfon mein thi mehkarein

Aankhein thay uskey jaadhu
Aur karhey thay humko bekhaabu

Kuch tum se wo milta tha
Baaton main chupse

Kuch tum se woh ketha tha
Magar baaton main chupse 
Haan tumse hi lagtaa tha
Shyok main sharaaratey

Ketha hai tumse
Kab zikar baas tumare hai
Kab tum se shikaayat hai
Har tareff pyaare adhaaye tumhare hai
Tarrif tho bas tumhari hai

Jo ladki sabse alaag hai
Sunlo tho jaaneman,yeh inayat hai

Ek ladki ko itna chaaha tha
Apno ki tarha humne

Laws of Qatar

If you live in a country where freedom is suppressed, you don't live.Living means having the freedom and liberty to do what you want,where you want,how ever way you want it as long as you do not break the law.

Unfortunately, the laws of certain countries are simply absurd.Reason why I say this is after noticing a few laws over here in Qatar,I just couldn't bare with their pure raw fresh stupidity that comes in a Qatari head.

First thing,I wasn't allowed to snap a picture of McArabia poster at McDonalds.Seriously,what harm can I bring to your country by snapping a picture of a cheeseburger?

Secondly, me and a male friend of mine were denied entry to a Fun Fair because we were not in the company of a women.Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?! Why do I need a female to company us? We were told that its called Family Day and thats how things work around here.For the sake holy fuckin cow,how does that make sense?

Thirdly, I had some issues with an officer at the Immigration Department for replying Okay to him,when he asked me to have a sit when I was standing at a corner.He called me back and told me,"When I say something,you dont answer me". Fuck his fuckin camel mother,I am not one to keep quiet.I know my rights and why shouldn't I be allowed to reply when you talk to me? Maybe thats how you keep your wife and camels over here,but I am not going to listen to your absurd ways.Backward thinking moron Arab.I hope they bomb your fucking kebab ass.I kept on answering him and he confiscated my passport saying he wont let me register my work permit.Does any of this making sense to you? And this are true stories of how idiotic,moronic,stupid,idiotic this Qatari's can get.

There are many more but I think I have vented out my frustration and anger enough for today.I find it unbelievably amazed on how things work around here.Level of stupidity,just too much for me to comprehend.

Qatari Summer

Since I have been here,almost every conversation with someone starts with the usual and ends up talking about the weather.All of them have been telling me,just wait for June July August,nani dhi yaad ajaughi they say.Translation?It means,you will remember you're grandma when its hot in the summer.


After the 4th person mentioned that to me,I started telling myself Challenge Accepted.I will show this people how I can handle this.Easy peasy..ahhhhh my Negro skin can take this shit...


Its the first week of May and temperatures have soared up to 40plus degrees celsius,reaching to 46 degrees celsius last friday.No joke.46degrees celcius...if you cant imagine how hot that is,it was exactly like standing near an open fire.You know that time when you go to a barbeque party or have a bon fire at a beach? Yup,that hott...


And the wind that blows at your face? 


Hot wind, of hot hot air.Seriously Qatar?! Wtf is wrong with you!!


And all this bitching at May-I really really really really dont look forward for June July August September.



  Well apparently,Im not that Negro skinned enough.LOL.

Engineers...

M.B.A Student (vs.) B.E Student


A MBA and a BE student go on a camping trip, set up their tent, and fell asleep.
Some hours later, the BE wakes his MBA friend and says
"Look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
The MBA replies, "I see millions of stars."
The BE asks, "What does that tell you?"


The MBA ponders for a minute.
"Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo.
Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three.
Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and
we are small and insignificant.
Meteorological, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
What does it tell you?"
The BE is silent for a moment, then speaks.
"Practically...Someone has stolen our tent".

Just Donald Duck being banned..


 Donald Duck comics were banned from Finland because he doesn't wear any pants.

La Zona Del Silencio


In a Chihuahuas desert patch near the Bolson de Mapimi in Mexico, there exists an eerie area called Mapimí Silent Zone (La Zona Del Silencio) or the Zone of Silence.

The area gets its name from an odd anomaly that prohibits radio waves from transmitting inside the zone. The Zone of Silence appears to cancel radio and TV signals and has a 
 history of UFO sightings.


Its discovery was made in 1970, when a faulty American Athena missile fired from the White Sands Missile Base in nearby New Mexico went off course inexplicably and crashed into the mysterious desert region.A team of U.S. Air Force investigators were sent to locate and investigate the cause of crash with approval from theMexican government ,they journeyed to the crash site and made an unexpected discovery. Within an unspecified and sometimes shifting area within the Zone, radio signals fail to travel through the air, creating a type   of dark zone.

No television, radio, short wave, microwave, or satellite signals seem to penetrate this zone.

The name, Zone of Silence, was quickly adopted, and researchers began flocking to the remote location shortly thereafter.

Theorists are quick to point out that the Zone is geographically located just north of the Tropic of Cancer and shares the same  latitude south of the 30th parallel as the Bermuda Triangle and the Egyptian Pyramids.


Whether such theories are pure coincidence and the reported sightings of UFO are man made fiction,one thing is for sure,La Zona Del Silencio has some mysteries of its own. 

Funny

Imagine you’re in charge of hiring the new ambassador from Pakistan to Saudi Arabia, 
when you get an application from a professional, highly trustworthy and experienced applicant.

Akbar Zeb
Surely you would pick him,right?

But unfortunately,the name of the applicant in question is Akbar Zeb and the country is Saudi Arabia.
 
He has been the Pakistani ambassador to 3 countries before, but none of them has Arabic as their official language.
In Arabic, Akbar Zeb translates to ‘biggest dick’.

And thats how, Akbar Zeb didn't get the job....hahaha

One plain hill side with only green grass.Nothing else in sight.

Imagine sitting there,nobody in sight.Knowing you are all alone.
You look up and see a clear bright sky,a bright future.Yet you choose to look down.

Tired of wandering around,you keep walking.
Suddenly a tree comes in sight.You approach it.

You take a rest in its shade.You lean over it.
All of a sudden,you dont feel lonely.
That tree seems like a good company.

You sit there every day when you are tired.
That good ol tree gives support,is ever present.
You dont ask for more.
Let the plains be plain,let there be nobody.

You enjoy the shade,lay down around it
and suddenly you feel at home

One day,you lose touch of everything.
You lose it
Sun strikes hot,wind suffocates
You find for your tree,nobody else can help
At least thats how you think
Just want to rest under the shade,nothing more

Tree is not there,appears to be there
when things hit rock bottom
when someone feels lonely
the least would do
the very least of listening would do alot

few will read this
fewer will understand
and im really not sure whether anyone will bother 

-sigh

100 Days

I heard time flies,but I never knew it flies at the speed of light...now how long does it take to reach 100days?
Apparently not 100 days,much lesser..the calendar tells me that Im not making sense but ohcmon,you're just a calendar...

Looking back,it was not so long ago when i was forced to live the living nightmares of camels,in this barren desert...filled with nothing but rich camels driving luxury cars and those arabs....oh wait..which is which,again?
I cant remember anymore...does animal dress in all covered black dresses with luxury cars or the arabs sit on all fours carrying travellers in the desert?

Orik.Now thats that weird cross between a goat and a deer with antennas on it...that silly animal that lives in this land.If you can make sense of how it looks like,try seeing the tail of a Qatar Airways plane.That silly animal.Not much differentiates animals from animals here.If you know what I mean.From what I heard that they get paid alot...wikipedia tells me the biggest resource of natural gas is found deep below this desert.I was impressed...how I wish they had found the reservoirs of good manners.That would come in handy.Maybe just maybe people will start liking you but Hey! Dont get over excited about this,there is still a big chance that those reservoirs will not come to any good use.

Zaman Jahilliah,thats in Malay.In English,its translated as the Age of Barbarians.History back in school thought me,that before religion prevailed in this land of sands stone deserts,it was the time of Jahiliah.They say it was an age of ignorance,where man indulged in their desires,doing what they want when they want and man was without guidance.Put money into the equation cancels the civilization brought in my religion,and man after money becomes exactly as how man was before religion.The example of civilization being undone has been quite obvious here.

The hundred days has been good for the body,all that waking up to work thing is paying some good cause to my body.But still a long way to undo all those damages done during college days.A few would understand this.
For someone with a faulty nose,it has been a good times here.Weather hasn't been that kind but the nose has not been much of a nuisance.Ahh,weather.Since the day I arrived, weather has been an issue.In the beginning of time here,it would drop to below 10 or 9celsius.Those were some fuckin cold days.Understand that others have seen worse but for someone who has 0.0000001 almost negligble body fat, surviving the cold itself feels like victory.The weather has since subsided to more of a Malaysian weather,in the past month or so.Thats good.The bad is that,summer is just starting.Embrace yourselfs, 55degrees celsius of average temperature can toast even the rowdiest camels.And I look forward in seeing the ladies here in their summer dresses,I wonder how different it would be from the black curtains they wear now.

Work has been the best part of the 100days.Now when you realize you have just said that,you would also realize how lifeless you have been.But,what the heck.The future is bright and I earn good notes.The hard work comes with loads of patience.Bear Grylls once said in a place where everything is constantly ever changing,being adaptive is man's most important skill.I am holding on to that advice.Being adaptive and putting effort.Newton was right too.For every force being applied,there is a force of equal magnitude in the opposite direction.For the time I have been applying force here day in day out,I have received equal amount of respect and been acknowledged.Thats what I call job satisfaction.

Friends and peers has been aplenty.Speaking 4languages does help make friends in almost all directions.Most people have been kind especially Malaysians.Unity beyond our races,its been 1Malaysia over here in Doha.Had some pretty good times and many-many more to come.

Life has been different,100 days has shown what really matters in life, who really matters and why they do.Being far away from the storm gives me the clear picture of the storm,being far away from my life,it gives me the clear picture of what I have left behind.Family,good friends,good times and a beautiful country.

Beautiful..


She is beautiful,there is no doubt to it..
Those eyes that melts hearts,when she passes,heads turn too ,
The stars and the moon stand witness of her beauty,
the beautiful roses and jealous peacocks stare in jealousy..
Beautiful is she such..

beyond that skin,
is a inner beauty,unseen to most,
that heart that is filled with care and love,
for her loved ones and close along knows,
kindness roots from within,beautiful kindness I must say

most dont see beyond her beautiful eyes,
but those eyes tell a story,
of a soul who has gone through alot,yet carves a smile all the time
for she is strong,even when those around her are weak,
she is a more than a girl,she is a women in her peak,
she is beautiful from the inside,for her heart and her soul is as beautiful as she is

I know I have not seen in person,all I know her is from words,
but does all that even matter?
her words are enough,
words that mirror her soul...and once again,
a beautiful soul I must say...
 




Sometimes I feel its true what they say:

 “The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.” – Helen Keller
