Life & Times ...

Thou may not be one in a million,

But thee is my million in one.

Obedient, sweet, caring, beautiful, perfect.

Thats how I would describe thine.

Tying thine laces, stealing Polo,

Middle of a class, Flaming Hot, eating.

Late night phone calls,

Thine angry bursts, mine whining.

Thee being Switzerland in every matter,

Thy face face when thy gets mad.

Getting thyself in trouble with myself,

Me convincing thy to do something bad.

Are going to turn into memories,

All those days with thine.

A piece of thy history,

And a fragment of past of mine.

Amazing life, full of joys,

Will turn into misery and goodbyes.

Give me strength and hope,

So I could let thee go by.

Thy words echo in my ear.

Thine image in front of my eyes.

Thy footprints forever on my life.

Thyself in my heart.

To a new beginning, a new life,

From here, going is thee.

As my actions, my family, me,

Always, a part of this one is ye.

Myself saying Goodbye.

Myself letting ye go.

Because I love ye.

Not forever, just for now.

This is my second poem which I wrote last night. The idea behind it s obvious. My sister/friend is going to Pakistan and we don’t know when we will meet. I wrote this last night.Its like I’m letting a part of me go.

…SALP…

So today was my Islamic Education exam which went pretty well. Then Mrs Riffat called me and gave me the news which literally made my day. Okay here it is. Me, I am the Editor of our school magazine. I can’t express my happiness. Okay I it’s pretty lame but the thing is in our school only the seniors get to be the editor and I’m still a Junior. She gave me the news but it’s not official yet. Still official enough for me. Thing is there are so many amazing students in our class, I thought it will be one of them. Moving on, I’m going for the MES speech contest too which is on 7th, two days after my exam finish. And dude it’s tough, I have participated and it was one month of gruesome routine and teachers yelling at you, criticizing your every move. Ugh. Ooh I forgot. Then my Bio teacher called telling us it’s Open House day for the project we did on 2nd June. Busy busy busy. OMG. This is the end of the school year, not the start and this is the case. What will happen next???? By now you have probably realized that I’m just rambling on and on and on. Did mention, my next paper is chemistry and I’m talking activities. Amara’s reaction:”Ya Allah” and the one of her many annoying faces. :P

After the exam, me, my mom and Monty went to the Gold Market because Monty Apa wanted to buy stuff for her mom. Okay so my mom has this belief or her logic that a girl should have some standard. Meaning in her language that if you have gold and can buy it then a girl should wear gold and not waste THOUSANDS of money on artificial jewellery. Ugh. Allergic to gold. Super hatred. Anyway so I bought these cute little ear rings and each was like QR45 to QR35 a pair. that’s what mine costs. And mom was actually right. Earrings are in silver with platinum plated and gem stones fitted in them and thing is if you buy jewelry like me at Lifestyle, H&M, Clairs, Splash etc. Then you know that the earrings there will cost the same.

So it was fun day hanging out with my brother inthe Gold Market and annoying him and at one point he was a little close to smashing his head with the wall.

And I met Nadi’s Hannu Mannu, looking adorable in the white uniform. That kid has so much spunk. Mashallah. Ooh and my best and only sister Teeba gave me a pre B’day present. Yes it’s a book. My Sisters Keeper by Jodi Picoult. A perfect day. This has been my day so far. Hope yours is going as well too or near enough. …SALP…

Someone said that it takes hard work and will to become something in life. I want to become something in life and I do have the will for it. Its the hardwork that creates a problem. Not only for me but for every teenager out there. Not counting the NERDS and the GEEKS. My mom says that this generation is useless, they want things to be handed to them on plates. But thats not how it works. You want to achieve, you have to strive for it. Today, the world we live in is full of competition. Competition between friends, cousins, neighbours, family, even strangers. Either you get into this competition or you just lag behind.

I have been studying and rot learning the WHOLE BIOLOGY book for the past five days and believe me, its not an easy job. Infact, now I’m having doubts about me being sane. But I know that one day I’ll remember these days and this is what will make me get into a medical school. I know that great people are not born, they are made. and it takes hardwork. A lot of hardwork. And yes that includes, learning the whole books. Believe me greatness is achieved by working, working and working. I do hope that someone would take this seriously, even if it is for the time being.

…SALP…

People used to me so much more kind and generous in the past generations. Now no one has time for any other person. They are so busy in their own. I am not blaming anyone. Just saying that things used to be much easier. Although I did not live in that period but our parents and their generation is so much better than us. They have time for each other. They are more kind, more humble and more helping than we ever would be. How many times did any of us stopped to help anyone in need? My mom taught me this and I always do it. When I was in 7th, I saw a teacher with a load full of books and I carried them for her and than it became a routine for the whole year. I used to wait for her at the end of the 5th period when our break started. At the end of the year, she said to me, Sumaica you are very different. Very few would do what you do. I said Ma’am, my parents made sure that I become a person who would be praised by the world and I made sure that I have friends who are the same. Its good to be different. Its great to have a friends circle who are as different as you. Its good to make a difference even if it is having good manners or picking a wrapper. It shows who brought you up. It shows whether you are king or a pauper. 

So I just worked for 3 hours to rewrite this stupid five page essay, more like report writing. It was 2000 words long. And I deleted it. Awesome me. WTH??? My day could Not get any worse.

Awesome movie. My only regret is that why did I not watch it before. Not only does it includes one of my the actors on my favourites list but also his acting is damn awesome. Ooh yea. I’m talking about Orlando Bloom. I’m in love with his baby, Flynn Bloom. So cute. Anyway coming back to the topic. The story line was good, the acting was superb, the actors themselves were Uh-mazingly handsome. And the cockiness rocked. Perfect movie with everything in it from a good script to well acted parts. Now I’m waiting for the second part. Lets hope its as good as the first one.
