JAILED…..!

AsSalaamWalaikum.....

People.! People..! I wanna confess something today. Yeah.! Don’t be so shocked but I wanna say that - I WAS JAILED ONCE… Yup..! U read it RIGHT ..! I WAS JAILED.. But I wanna say technically it wasn’t a JAIL “Jail”… J It was just a teeny tiny version of one..!

It happened in my last year of grad school..

For our college fest, every year the volunteers install these various stalls , One of which was a JAIL. They make a small cabin with some bars attached and make it look like a jail. Its was on the college campus so that every passer-by can watch it.

So students could LOCK-UP any other student they wish to by paying some amount and the jailed person should stay in the jail for desired amount of time…!

So on my college fest I was sitting there with my class mates and all of a sudden a guy comes to me and says – Mam! U have been Jailed n U need to come with me.. I was like Excuse me..??? Come Again…. I am WHAT…??..?

Guy – Mam! Please… It’s a rule...

Me – That’s your problem.. Go deal with it..

One of my friends says – Cut him some slack, its just for fun and they do it every year..….

Me going on again – What.! No .. We R not gonna blow past this .. Just keep quite.. I know to deal with this..

Guy - Please …. U have to come … Please Please…

I don’t really remember what exactly he said to convince me but I remember saying “ Am gonna stop you right there , I am Just not coming with you…! I don’t like this CRAP.. Just Go... and Blah! Blah! Blah!“

Let me just say that I really confused him or he dint know how to convince me more so he left…! It was a really good conversation which went on for quite some time… J After he left I was like

“ Oh! My God! I really talked him out of this…! YAY..!! … “

But then, I felt really bad for him.. He was talking really polite and I was like Dead Furious...! He was just doing his JOB…!

And my friends were like u are so slient in the class and speak so less BUT when it comes to these things No Wonder u are like “ON FIRE”…! Hehehehe…! J I haven’t thought it through that much but when it comes to deal with these kindda situations , I can snap out of it easily.... J Even today when I think about this, I have a heartily laugh for the way I reacted… J GOD..! Guys if in the future, science catches up and there was a TIME-MACHINE, this would be definitely one of “those things” that I wanna redo… ! J J

Hey but the best part is I dint get to know who had actually JAILED ME ( What could I have possibly done… am just a sweet innocent girl…. J ) … I was so busy whining at that guy, I forgot to ask him .. ! J

BEAUTY-WISE......!!!!

Salaam....

Hey Guys as I had said in my last post that I’ll be posing some of the points which might be useful for you or that can help u out..! Here are a few pointers I think you might find useful or u might like it … I got these from the book…

Beauty - WISE…

Hello RED FOODS. BYE DARK SPOTS. Fruits and veggies that are naturally red are full of antioxidants that minimise skin pigmentation.

Drink a glass of vegetable juice everyday. It’s a great boost of vitamins and minerals that will leave your hair and skin with sheen u won’t miss.

Bring out those peepers: The area under the eye lacks natural moisture. It may lead to fine lines, early wrinkles and dark circles. You need a hyaluronic serum to keep it hydrated.

EAT CHOCOLATE. But the dark variety, and in moderation. The flavanoids may provide significant protection from the harmful effects of ultraviolet light. Rich chocolate could improve skin from within. Its the delicious skin care ingredient.

Your Lips need every bit of extra moisture they can get as they have no oil glands and natural moisture. Keep a tube of lip Care with u all the time.

HEALTH Wise…

First thing every morning, drink warm water with juice of half of lemon and honey mixed in. This helps get rid of the toxins in ur body.

Drink a lot of ice water, especially before a meal. This helps burn more calories-the body does that to maintain it’s internal temp, which drop due to the cold water.

Add spice to ur food with out adding the calories. Do this by sprinkling lemon juice and pepper on ur veggies


RUMOUR HAS IT….

Myth #1

You might have heard: You don’t need sunscreen in winter.

What you should know: You need sunscreen in every season. Sunscreen is used as a chemical sunblock.

Myth #2 : The longer you keep your Hair Oil on the Better it is for the hair.

Too much Oil makes your scalp greay. This translates to using a lot more shampoo to remove oil, which can actually result in increased hair fall…

Myth #3 : Regular use of Cucumber slices and wet teabags can reduce your under-eye bags.

These are only temporary solutions. Pigmentation and puffiness around ur eyes could be due to blood vessels in the lids.



I hope these tips/tricks help you to get the edge u need…

Howz that for BEAUTIFUL…???

My Temptation for Magazines…!!

Salaams to all...

You know that thing, when you see something you LOVE and You kindda know u Have to Have it , No MATTER WHAT…! J Well, that's what it's like when I see a magazine…!!

Reading is one of my Hobby and a Great way to pass my time too…! Oh.! But I don’t read any novels.. I have this thing just for the magazines…! J

Whenever I pass by a shop or a road side book stall, I can’t stop myself from looking I get soOoo energized and full of joy…! Literally, this is what my crazy heart feels..! And when your fingers grasp those shiny, new COVER …. Oh, yes! Oh, yes! It feels soOo good, I always always always end up taking one…

And I probably have books I bought 3-4 years ago still in my shelves . And some are still unread.. I want to get rid of my backlog before I add more to it, but books and magazines, are sooooo tempting! A few months back I no longer had room for any new books or magazines, so had to call a halt to new purchases...! And In order to help clear my already overflowing bookshelves, I donated some books to my library …

My Friends and my cousins keep wondering as to why do I spend so much money just for the magazines, but i cant help it.….! A couple of months back I was reading one and I saw a subscription form n thought of subscribing one instead of getting it from the stores..! J So I get FEMINA every two weeks now…! J Whenever this book arrives at my doorstep I just have to rip up the cover and get on it instantly and the feeling u get is sooOOoo awesome..! u must be thinking am just crazy but I jus LOVE it…!

But so far this year I have bought only one magazine which I've only half read… and now I think, 'I've got so many at home still to read' and pass them by. This has been a major change for me…. But still Guys if u see me around a book store just drag me away from it… I don’t trust myself near the magazines.. J Its hard, seeing other people buying books by the bagsful J



[PS : Wait for my next post , i'll be posting some new Pointers which i picked up from FEMINA ]

A day.... 14-jan-10

Salaams....

Alarm 1 goes off on my Phone

Alarm 2 goes off on my Phone

Manage to wake-up.

My day started off pretty well. It was kindda fun, kindda boring, kindda scary too… ! I had my breakfast, Lunch and watched some tv…! And I was dyeing out of Boredom.... Since a few months back i started to have this craving for junk food at night.. i just donno why, but i have to have junk food at night all the time.... So decided to go out and buy some stuff… Got some money from Dad n took my little cousin with me coz she was feeling very lonely that day coz she had no school and also thought of going on a Bike RiDe with her…

When we reached the store, turns out it was closed. I Was just about to turn back and go to another super market but my cousin stopped me at the Library..! She wanted to get some comic books to kill her free time, but then when the librarian asked her membership number she said she had forgotten… Then again, I had forgotten my number tooOoo… ( Oh..! Poor my little cousin..) It took us a very long time to convince her that we were old customers of her n finally she let us take books with one of my other cousin’s membership ..! (luckily she knew her)
So we headed again to the store and on my way, I barely made it out of an accident... Not that I was driving fast, but a bike just tried to overtake me and was so close to hit me ( Alhamdulilla, nothing happened.....) When we reached the store, it probably took us just 15mins to take everything we needed but it really took us a long time on the counter to pay our bills..! L I got a big bill, which was pretty much more than I expected.. I guess I went a little overboard n ended up taking stuff which I never really needed…By the time we returned home , it was pretty late…!
In the evening i watched some more tv. I Was feeling really bored to have my usual thing for dinner so I made some sandwiches for myself and ate..! At night after the prayer, I read my fav magazine , browsed some beauty websites and Watched some old movies repeatedly… J That was my long day, even though it doesn’t sound like one..! J

Have an awesome day guys….!

Continued....! ....!

Hey there..! Salaam..
So Here's what happened next...

After that the very next day, I was on college campus with one of my friendz and suddenly a girl comes to me and asks my name… And when I told her She said “They have a function for all the MUSLIMS of 1st semester.. And it was a FRESHERS PARTY “ ( Since i was the only Muslim in class, they invited only me... )

She said "there will be LUNCH, We'll get to play lot of games and we’ll have FUN … And everyone has to come , it’s a compulsory “ ….. I dint know what to say , so I accepted the invitation…! Then I asked her if she’ll be there in the Party too… and she was like “ Girl…! What kindda question is this, I invited u , Why woun’t I be there…” ( It was actually really silly of me to ask her that…) I tell u, that girl was showing so much attitude...!!

Then what I saw next was that, the guy who talked to me the other day standing right behind that girl ( Well I dint see that one coming…. ) and he goes…

Guy: So ur coming to the Party …?

Me: hmmm.. I Guess I am…

Guy: Why did u react at me like that… U were SoOo Rude…(he was really pissed at me…)

Me: I was like .. Excuse Me.. What did I do.…?..?

Guy: U were very impolite and dint talk to me…. (All I said was “I am not interested”…! ) He was soOo bummed at me.. I donno Y….!

Whatever yaar…! I dint say anything much and came back….

Even though the Party was in a “5 Star HOTEL“ I dint go coz my friends said they'll be a lot of Ragging and all.... And i knew those people would not leave me without Ragging..! :-)


[PS : if u guys like this post then I’ll post some more happenings of my college days…. ]

College Days...!

Salaam everyone...!
When u enter a new institution, you have a very different feeling.... Everything is soO new and different with the new environment , u have this JOY,the THRILL,the HIGH and RUSH of making new friends and all… … U feel excited , u feel scared , u go through every possible feelings…. And when something terrifying happens to you, then everythings just falls apart…

How would you feel if a bunch of guys shows up to ur class and asks for u, during the 1st week of ur college, where u donno anyone..….??? The same thing happened to me…..

Yeah! Right… This exact thing happened with me..

When I was in my 1st week of college (Engineering), I had finished my first hour classes and had gone out to have my breakfast… And when I returned to my classes, my friends said that some guys had come asking for me… I was really shocked to hear that … I said “ NO , absolutely not.! That cant happen, coz I donno anyone here “ and I told them they were kidding….! But they swear that it happened... ! And i was really embarrassed and had No IDEA why they came asking for me...

And just after that, the same guys came to my class again…! I dint know that guys....! They were all tall and came in a group.. ( i kept saying myself " WHATS HAPPENING"..) For a second I thought they were coming to RAG me or something… ( though ragging was not allowed in our college)

Then some guy asks my name, I asked him why …? They did know me… Then the guy said “ We have a invitation for you and you have to come “ … I dint know what was he talking about and why an invitation just for me…. So I said “ I am not INTERESTED “ ( I dint know what to say at that time , I was really shocked , usually am not so spontaneous also... ) Then those guys dint say anything n went back OR it so happened that i dint give a chance to talk n ran inside my class..…


Hey..! this is not the ending, Theres gotto be more to it na ..! There’s other side of the story…! I’ll be posting that in my next POST..!

In the meantime can u people GUESS what happened next….??? Waiting for your Comments guys… !
