Be thinking of you, every day and every night


The One Who Leaves Me Breathless.
I love you. And I will do anything for you.
I really have to no idea how to show you how much I care.



I'm going to make you feel, like you're the only girl in the world
Like you're the only one that I'll ever love
Like you're the only one who knows my heart.


So my classes just got over. And I am back on blogger.
That rhymed. :D


I am taking part in a foodography competition. Now I cooked the fried rice and the potatoes and the kebab that I've taken a picture of.
And yes, the picture is for The One Who Leaves Me Breathless.
I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



And since my brothers were watching me, I had to change it a bit and make it for the whole family to eat too.


Just looking at it makes me hungry.
And we ate all of it. :D


The photography competition is at This Competition and yes, I'm trying to win the award for The One Who Leaves Me Breathless, since I love her.






And I saw your face
In a crowded place
And all else
Ceased to exist.


I made those up, yes.


Which reminds me.
One of my students writes songs. And she wrote one stanza of a song, but she couldn't continue it. So I finished it. The first song I ever wrote.



You come here to me
Just to mock me
I wish you could see
That it really hurts me
I've been seeing this change in you
And I hear you found somebody new
And that I never meant that much to you


This thing tears my heart inside
And to hear you cuts me like a knife
You say sometimes love lasts
And sometimes it hurts
If everything happens for a reason
Why does this make my heart burn


Cause I gave you my heart
And you left it in shards
I wish you could see
How much hurt you've caused me
I've been seeing this change in you
And I hear you found somebody new
And that I never meant anything to you


I can feel myself dying inside
But all I can think of is your smile
You're just lost in your head
And you don't see what I can see
If everything happens for a reason
Why does this make my heart burn


You just keep lying to me
And you will never see
How much you mean to me
Which is much more than what I mean to you
I've been seeing this change in you
And I hear you found somebody new
And that I never meant that much to you



Since I am finally done will classes, I will be catching up on reading posts. Watch out for some blog awards in my next post!


A huge thank you to Camellia Day at My Thoughts In One for awarding me. Here's what she had to say.






And when you're lonely, I'll keep you company
I just want us only, made for you and me
And when it doesn't feel right with another, I hope you believe
That in a world with no light, I will be all that you need to see.


The One Who Leaves Me Breathless/Gives Me Asthma/The One Who Suffocates Me. I love you, meri jaan.








I feel like I've woken up since my migraine hurts less and I can finally think clearly.

You know I'd do anything for you

Giant steps are what you take
Walking on the moon
I hope my leg don't break
Walking on the moon.

I didn't post yesterday, I know. I had a really bad migraine.

But I met up with two friends and we had a lot of fun. Fun like I haven't had since.. April. It was a good thing that none of my students saw me. They'd wonder how mature we were, messing around and throwing water and going into the dodgem cars area.


And later, in the evening, when I had just woken up and was in the kitchen getting water, the 'Manzoor hai' yell came again. I was really tempted to yell back, but I had a migraine then.

[Manzoor is a name. 'Manzoor hai' means 'Is Manzoor there?' and it also means 'Do you accept.' So you can see why it's so funny when this guy yells that at least once a week.]

So that was mostly what I did yesterday.



This morning, I woke up to the sound of people yelling outside the house. Now I just had a dream that people were fighting outside my house while we were getting ready to go somewhere, so I got up and found out that it was a donkey race in the alley outside the apartment complex.
Yes, laugh. :P

And this is the sound clip of me playing Kiss the rain/Bella's lullaby for the third and fourth times. The fourth time is worth the wait, trust me.


And this is me playing 'Happy Birthday' and then part of 'Jingle Bells'


Apart from all that, I got a B in American Government (Yay, I guess.). The One Who Leaves Me Breathless said that I should be thankful for a B. It was a hard class and a fast track one, but I wanted an A. You can't have everything, I guess. So I'm happy.

It's got to be the crunkest
It's got to be the loudest
It's got to be the best love song she ever heard in her life,


I made these to surprise The One Who Leaves Me Breathless.



No need for me to write it,
I just gotta picture her smiling.


I found these pictures.. taken from when I was in a picture taking mood.

It's rare for me to want to take pictures, like a lot of pictures. It started when I was in sixth grade. My class went on a field trip to Lahore. My parents gave me a camera (we didn't have decent digital ones back then). So I spent most of my money on camera rolls.. and when we developed the pictures, out of eleven hundred pictures, five had people in them. The rest had scenery.. of the museums. The sights along the way. The Lahore Fort.
I take amazing pictures of scenery, yes. It made my dad mad enough to take out his digital camera and teach me how I should take pictures.

These are three out of eight of my first students. I taught them English as a Second Language. Bit old to be my students, but they learnt a lot. :)




These are two turtles at the Dallas Forth Worth aquarium.

If I could just see you
Everything would be alright
If I'd see you
This darkness would turn to light.

Pepsi!

I just had Pepsi. It's been over three weeks since I last had it, so it feels awesome.



Almost like anything is possible. Yes, I'm hyper =D

I actually had soft drinks banned at my school while I was in grade eight. I still remember giving the speech at assembly..

I still agree with every word I said that day. It was about how soft drinks are highly acidic and how they are strong enough to be used as bleach or to remove rust..

It's a really interesting story as to how I started having drinks after getting them banned..

And as is usual when I'm hyper, everything is about me, me, andddd ME!


Where was I? Oh yeah, so soft drinks..

It started with a migraine. (Funny how so many things start with a migraine, isn't it?)
And I went to see my younger brother's doctor. He used to have migraines too, by the way. He stopped having them, though. As for myself, though, well..

But getting back to the point. The doctor made me do an MRI (oh, HOW i detest going into that machine.) It came back clear, as did a hundred other scans and lab/blood tests.

And she told me to start de-stressing and not taking so much tension. AND SHE TOLD ME NOT TO HAVE ANY SOFT DRINKS.

And that was when I decided to do what the doctor said not to do. After all, I was having migraines while not having had soft drinks for the last.. three? No, wait, two years. That. Is. A. Really. Long. Time. I don't think that I had even a bit of soft drinks in my body. Do you?

So I had Pepsi on day one after the doctor's visit. I was being as rebellious as I possible could be. And then I started having Pepsi once a month.. And I loved it. My migraines never left me, but for some reason, Pepsi was the only drink that never gave me a migraine. And that was how my love for Pepsi started.

I'm in such a good mood right now that I might actually give some people a third chances. I rarely give second chances, by the way. Oh, I forgive alright, but then I forget the incident.. and the person. And people lose their first chances only when they do something major.

Like deleting my number from your phone. Or lying to me. Or refusing an invitation to eat food or drink tea that I made. Now THAT is a major, major insult. My entire family loves my tea. (Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah..) So when a person says no to eating food first and then says no to drinking tea that I made, I'm simply not going to make food or tea for them again. Ever. Again. Sorry, but you said no when I sent you an INVITATION, so why should I cook for you when YOU WANT ME TO? Not going to happen. Bye, bye.



 I'm not even proud of my cooking or anything. My great-grandmother, by the way, is the best cook in the world. I need to learn some things from her over the summer..

And I need to Radio Active 96 again. That station is AWESOME. Or used to be awesome a year ago, at least. Put that on my to-do list..

I haven't made much money online this week, so it looks like the teaching plan is going to happen.. Which is almost as awesome as being at University. And watch those movies I've been looking forward to watching, like X-Men First Class, Harry Potter 7 (Part II), Beastly, all the episodes of Dexter, Star Wars animated, and Samurai Jack. And see if Maddi Jane sings more songs. Awesome singer, and she's so young :o I don't envy her for her voice or anything, though.

But then I don't envy anyone :o

I started watching Beastly today. And Vanessa Hudgens, Emma Watson, Lily Allen, Ellen Page, Mila Kunis should ALL be in that movie. Watch the movie, and you'll see why.

Songs are getting stuck in my head these days. First Maddi Jane's cover of Rolling in the Deep, then Sami Yusuf's Healing, and now Chris Tomlin's Lord I need you.

Tomorrow, I'm going to resume getting up at five a.m. It's awesome watching the sunrise, and it's been a REALLY long time since I got a chance to do it from a perfect height.



I was just going through the Google gadgets and I found the feed-the-fish one. REALLY makes me miss my puppies. Oh yeah, I've kept so many pets.. Five adult German Shepherds, a baby crow (it was injured), a parrot, chicks, ducks, a peacock, five turtles, don't remember how many fishes, and two German Shepherds puppies. It's the two puppies that I miss the most, for some reason =(


Simba-Caesar & Bella..

Dexter is Samurai Jack's best friend

I hate Albert Einstein.


No, don't act like you're all shocked and everything. He found the formula E=mc2, right? And that led to the creation of the atom bomb. Which, as we all know, killed 170,000 people. Although Robert Oppenheimer was the one who did the work in the Manhattan Project, making the !@#$%^& bomb, Einstein still.. sucks.

Besides, he's the one who chucked me into the future. Where all around me, I see people loving money. And not loving their families enough. So hard to adjust to that one. Sigh.

If you even remotely disagree with me about Einstein, watch this movie:
Grave of the Fireflies

And if you want to download it.. use a torrent.. Click here

I support torrents, by the way. We don't need to pay superstars and film studios any more money. Even the Harry Potter crew. Otherwise, they become like this..

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin Want a Super Smart Tutor

$98,000 per year? I could go to university for three years with that much! If they only put up the link to apply, I would.. though I can only play one instrument. They want two instruments. -.-

And once I graduate from Uni (Insha Allah: With Allah's Will & Permission), then I can create a time machine and go back in time! Oh, yes, I have it all planned out.


And if I'm not able to create a time machine, then, well, I'll continue helping people in any way I can..

Like cooking for them. Oh, I cooked everything for the first time for lots of guests this week. Tiring and I almost burnt the chicken, but it was FUN.

Sweet and Sour Chicken:

Chicken:

Fried Rice:

Anddd Fried Potatoes:

I was going through Youtube's top hits and I listened to Maddi Jane for the first time. Wow.
Just. Wow.

Her cover of Adele's Rolling in the Deep is even better than the original :o

She'll be an awesome singer one day, right?

And that reminds me, I need to write a new poem. Haven't written one in a while O.o

I need a decent topic, though.. any suggestions?
