12 March Another Month, Another RantJeez, its been another month and a bit since I've written in! I have absolutely no idea why, though.
Im going through this really strange phase in my life, where I want to write, but can't seem to put anything down. It's like Im clean out of ideas, but Im not, because I do get blinding bursts of insight that drive me near insanity, but now when I stare at that blank word processor page with the little cursor blinking in the ecstatic wait for my writing, I havent a clue what to say, how to say it, or even why I should say it.
I guess I've lost sight of that original 'thing' that drove me forward. My source and my fuel. I never knew what it was, I just took it for granted. I thought for a very long time that my writing was fueled by depression; when I was down, I could escape my own world better and immerse myself in the world of my characters, and paint out their lives with the colour of words.
So yeah, I dont need depression to do it. I'm doing it now, arent I? Typing as fast as words are coming to my head, trying to slow my chain of thought enough, or speed my fingers up enough, so that everything reaches a strange level of synchronisation. And its working for me isnt it? I dunno.
You're parents dont lie to you when they tell you that there will be plenty of time to fuck around when you're older, so dont mess up during your A levels or GCSE's. I never believed them. I always figured, fuck, university is going to be fuck hard. How deluded was I. I barely do ANYTHING in a day, and its surprising, because my days seem to pass fairly rapidly. Mostly because of Youtube im reckoning.
That website is the bane of man. Seriously, I know its really nice of everyone to put all those things up to share with the world, but dont you know some of us have no life and no self control, and sit at the computer for hours on end stariing mindlessly at your foolish prattle? And then we grunt a laugh and say "well im not stupid enough to do something as stupid as said guy in video" but you're actually sitting on your ass and you last looked at the clock at what you think was 10 minutes ago, but by some strange twist of chronography, its now 3 hours in the future? Talk about back to the fucking future.
Another thing thats really pissing me off; female mentality. I swear to god I dont even want to go into this rant, its just so stupid and un-understandable and GAH! Why couldnt I just be gay? I mean seriously, Ive been punished by being made heterosexual. God seriously has it out for me and he wants to see his monkey minions cry and shout and scream.
Or maybe Im just a litttttlle bit defunct. Ahem.
Student Halls can FUCK OFF. Seriously. Fucking hell, I thought these places were nice and shit. Turns out, they're scamming little bastards who look for every opportunity to take a few pounds off you. It starts very innocently; charging 20p extra for coke and candy, and a little bit more extra for condoms. 10p extra for cigarettes. That kind of shit.
And then? Hey presto, some idiot sets fire to our communal kitchen. The wall is blackened. Some woman who hasnt seen a penis in 20 years shows up and instantly says it needs to be repainted. Fuck that. We make and effort and clean the whole fucking ceiling, cleaner than when we got it! We cleaned it so much that we cleaned the other parts that hadnt been affected by the soot too because they looked a little yellow compared to our fuckoff white cleaned areas.
The next morning the clever woman who has a double ended donkey dildo (yes the same woman who hasnt seen penis in 20 years) orders a troupe of minion workers to scrub the ceiling with a special 'chemical' so that its not poisonous.
Fucking hell. Since when has soot been poisonous? I dont recall stories of boy scout groups being found dead because they had a campfire. I dont recall anyone dying because they ate chargrilled food. Fucking hell, soot is CARBON. We are MADE of carbon. We BREATHE IN CARBON. ALL THE TIME. Capslock is not getting across my level of distaste.
Anyway, ceiling scrubbed, they decide to bill us 95 pounds. After we did all of their work for them. Im just about ready to show that woman some penis. Its going to be the first one she's seen in a long time and Im going to slap her across the forehead with it.
OK, so thats my rant, over and out. I'll see y'all on the other side. And if you find my misery remotely enjoyable or relateable to, leave a message so I know you care:) That way I wont burn this building to the ground.
Toodles!
~Zo 02 February Its Been A While!Wow so its been what, almost a month since I've last written in? Jesus, thats a long time!
I guess my total disappearance warrants some explanation; Ive just been happy with life.
One of the most invaluable motivators I had towards writing was that I'd always have something or the other on my mind; some kind of worry or fear which I could channel into writing. But I've not been in love for a while now, and I've pretty much learned to love the single life (that needs no further clarification!). And University is going good and Im loving spending time with my new friends. All in all, I can say shits pretty good for me!
I'll throw a few updates your way though;
firstly, yes, Im still a chronic insomniac. It is currently 4:39am *huurk!*
secondly, Im pissed off because the UK doesnt sell Mountain Dew. Ive been craving the good dew for a few days now and I cant find any of the fucking shit anywhere but online... FUCK! I think Im going to have to order some, which is really sad I guess...buying soda online...whats the world coming to?!
thirdly, Student Direct has become the centre role of my writing life. The newspaper is a vast being that eats away all my time and ability! I havent written a single page of my books in over a month. Its a fucking disgrace!
Im tired of going firstly secondly and thirdly so ill just continue normally now!:P (plus I dont think 'fourthly' would be grammatically correct!)
Anywho so yes, Ive gotten a job at Nandos. Its well fun, grilling tons of chicken and prancing around infront of a grill that threatens to singe my face off every time I lean close.
Umm lifes generally good, as Ive mentioned. Lorenzo my flatmate sat me down today and told me how thankful he was that he found a friedn as awesome as me. Normally this would make my head swell but I feel exactly the same way towards him haha. We're awesome I think its emerging love:p
ahem.
On a more heterosexual note, I have decided I need to act more and wonder less. Theres a really cute girl I do law with and I intend to ask her out. So nyah *sticks tongue out*
Ofcourse she's probably going to say no but THATS NOT THE POINT! The point is that I must try as the experience and skill it builds shall be useful for later encounters.
God Im so full of crap.
Right this entry has not been productive, nor entertaining. I recommend you all denounce me and go about your own lives.
Toodles!
~Zo 25 December Back To The Good 'Ole.Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you're all having an amazing time wherever it is that you are, and watch out for stray snowballs or strange heatstrokes!
Right, that said, woohoo, Im having the time of my life back here in Jeddah. The fun part is that Im not doing ANYTHING different from when I used to live here till September, but its still tons of fun.
Kareem and Taha are fun to be with as usual. And as usual we bitch about everything under the sun, argue and bicker like children, draw strange conclusions, act very gay, and all in all laugh so much that our sides ache. This includes Kareem waking me up the day before yesterday by dry humping me. And then Awais' shrill broken voice shrieks as he pretended to spank everyones booty. Then ofcourse theres all the old jokes, and all the walking around malls and the Al Baik, and the Titanium, and smoking all those shishas, and the Starbucks frapachinos we'd get.
God I miss it here.
And the SUN. OMG I love the sun. Never have I been so grateful for a day where my shadow is so intensely dark that it hurts my eyes to look back up from it. And Ive missed driving around all the time!
Hossam and Shaz got the new Chevy Caprice, and thats been a nice piece of cake so far. Except it has too much technology, so I cant get anythign to work...specifically the stereo or the airconditioning!
Bought a new PC, lots of clothes, and probably buying a new MP3 player. Im thinking the Microsoft Zune. God, that fucker is so beautiful the display on it is driving me crazy. iPod can go screw itself!
Ughh I had so much to say, but now I cant remember any of it! But yeah, Im having a really, really good time, and please don't go jinx it because I think I deserve this after a horrible term! Muahaha.
Oh and it pays to be away from girls and alcohol for a while :D really makes you feel good! lol.
Ok everyone, y'all take care and keep having fun.
And smile lots!
Merry Christmas again, and I hope you all have a wonderful New Year!
~Zo 03 December Smart Times Call for Smart MeasuresDont let the title fool you. This entry has nothing whatsoever to do with smartness. Infact, if you have an IQ of above 120, you should probably look away right now, otherwise you risk losing brain cells.
Right, so today my phone decided it needed to add a new misery to my life. My phone, of course, is pretty much an appendage of my body. Like my penis, except I get to use it more often and randomly annoy people with it without having to go to jail for indecent exposure or sexual harrassment.
...
Moving on.
So yes anyway, today my phone decided it would go schitzo. I did not panic however, because it has happened to me but twice before, in the space of this year alone. Which makes me a very sad boy. But yes, everytime my phone would go crazy, I would take it to Axiom Telecom, the dudes i bought it off, and theyd repair it under its lovely 5 year warranty. But every time they'd do that, I would lose ALL the contacts on my phone.
So yes I did something smart. Its not really smart, but considering that it was me that did it, yes it was a very smart idea spawned from a very weak and feeble brain. I created a list of all my contacts on my PC and syncronized it with my phone. So yaaaaayyyyy every time I hook my phone up to my PC i can update the contact list on the PC and the phone and that makes me a happy, happy boy.
Oh. Other than that, nothing new really. Its 4:24 am, so for all my original readers; timezone shifting has really not changed my weird sleeping habits!
Ciaó everyone! And remember, do smart shit because it makes you feel good, and for no reason else!
~Zo 16 October Hey-de-ho!Hey everyone, long time no see!
Sorry I just havent had any time to get my ass online and write here. Infact I havent had time to write much at all! Lol
life has been hectic, running about a lot, going out, watching movies, trying to survive on weird junk food. you know, university life:p
So far, been enjoying it tremendously!
Oh and Im writing for the University of Manchester newspaper now, Student Direct. Its the largest university newspaper in the UK. Not bad huh?:p
Anyway everyone, take care, and if you miss me, bloody well act like it and leave me a message! Give me a reason to return!:p
Cheers everyone,
G'night!
~Zo 22 September Settling In At ManchesterWooo well Ive been here in Manchester for a few days now, and I have to say, its pretty much amazing. Lol The first day I got in, I was a little iffish about it. Didnt like my room much, didnt really know anyone, and I was pretty wasted from the flight. A night of sleep changed all that. Its friggin amazing now. Having a wonderful time, made some new friends. Walking around a lot, eating healthy. You know, that kind of stuff:p
The parties are amazing, though yeah its not exactly as wild as you'd expect at clubs. Infact theres a pretty decent semblance of decency in people, even when theyre jam packed together in a tiny place!
Um yeah the city is expensive but not all that really, if you manage your money! The clubs are top notch and could easily compare to London at a fraction of the prices.
Tonight was actually pyjamas night, so Im still a bit dazed from seeing too many girls in tiny baby shorts and stuff lol. The things girls sleep in! *brrrr* lol but hey, you have to admit, they do look sexy:p
Umm havent had time to put some pictures up, but i'll get down to it soon enough, worry not!
~Zo 04 September XX - The Big 20heh heh so Ive turned 20 today, on the 4th of September, 2006.
Whooooo 20. Thats one huge number lol. And when I think back over the 19th year of my life, it just seems so LONG.
I felt love love for about a quarter of it. And then felt real heart break for another quarter. I felt the yearning for love again for a bit and I felt a loathing for love for a bit. Its been really strange.
Mentally Ive matured a lot. University preparation and all that. And Ive started looking at life in a more pragmatic and orderly way.
Ive met some of the best friends Ive ever had, and Ive learned control over my emotions. All in all, this year has been HELL lol. But if I could go back and do it all again, I wouldnt change it a bit. Life is there as a lesson and you learn from it, or you're just wasting your time really.
So yes everyone, wish me a happy birthday you bastards!
lol take care, and stay yourselves. I wouldnt want you any other way, and I love you for you :D
~Zo
p.s. currently, I have this horrible wisdom tooth coming out at the back of my mouth, and its pissing me off so im grouchy. grrr. 26 August Brothers of the Spanner, and Snakes Under the Bridgelol today was an absolutely hilarious day that somewhat lifted my mood ( i was being a moody bitch today lol) and even though Im dead tired after it, it was sooooo funny:P
It shall be told in two seperate parts. lol part 1.
Brothers of the Spanner
heh heh Kareem, Taha, and I had gone to Balad to check the prices of various things, and as we were leaving, we were going down this side road. Taha didnt notice this sudden ditch that appeared in the road and BLAM! his tyre got punctured and the rim disfigured. So we stopped the car and as soon as I got out, I screamed in a high pitched voice, OMG YOU FUCKED UP THE TYREEEEEEE!!!!! AAAIIIIIEEEE!!!!!
.....
Anyway this caused Taha to panic and he was like Oh shit man what do we do now Oh shit man. And Kareem came to me and he was like "Zohaib look what you've done you've made him paranoid now!" Haha so me and Kareem (Taha stood watching us:P). Now me and Kareem were tyre changing virgins...we'd watched it done before, but we'd never really done it ourselves. So we kind of stumbled through it this first time lol (omg this sounds too much like sex so Im going to shut up about it). Anyway so we got the tyre off and we had the car elevated on the jack. We went to check the spare and hey presto, that had a puncture too.
At this point we decided to take the spare which was only punctured and go to the nearest gas station, get it patched up, bring it back, and finally go home. That was all good and all...except we couldnt find a taxi. Then finally we DID find a taxi, and to catch it, Kareem was running through a grassy field with the tyre raised above his head, like he was about to hurl it. It reminded me of some scene from a movie, not sure which lol. It was just hilarious coz he was screaming like a girl lol. I ofcourse was prancing right along beside him..lol
Ofcourse, only me and Kareem went to get the tyre fixed...Taha was scared to leave his car:p He claimed that even if he locked it, someone would come along and kick the jack out. When I explained to move the jack they would need to have a jack key, he said that they (they being the presumed car jack robbers) would have a key with them. My question to him was that if they had a key, then they obviously had a jack. So if they had a jack, why would they go through the trouble of stealing yours? :S
Anyway me and kareem set off in the taxi. We got to the nearest mechanics and gave the guy the tyre to fix, then went and sat down in a nearby air conditioned hotel to sip pepsi in wine glasses (while Taha was still standing in the heat next to his car about 2 kilometers away).
Anyway we finally got the repaired tyre back to the car (turns out it wasnt punctured, just had low air), and we fixed it back on, to drive off into the sunset.
Ironically, though me and Kareem literally did ALL the work, Taha was the only one to get grease on his clothes:S Now thats just bad luck lol.
Now for the next incident that occured in the same night.
Snakes Under the Bridge
Heh heh so for fixing the tyre, me and Kareem demanded a mechanics fee; Taha had to treat us to these amazing tripple decker sandwiches from Mugg and Bean, a coffeeshop in Megamall. Infact just thinking of those Triple Decker Street Basin Club Sandwiches is making my mouth water!
Anyway so we decided to have some of those. But because its Friday today, single men arent allowed into Megamall on their own (they need women with them). So what we did was park across the main street at IKEA, then crossed under a dark dingy bridge. I was just talking about the likelihood of snakes being present when Kareem poked me suddenly with his fingers and made a hissing sound. I screamed and stumbled forward. At that point everyone also noticed that I was sneaking around like Sam Fisher (the guy from Splinter Cell) in the dark, as if I was some silent assassin. I made no move to change my gait as we jaywalked (or as it is in an arabic accent, "gaywalked") across the busy street!
We went into the mall, ignored the security guard telling us to beat it, went to Mugg and Bean...and ordered the three largest sandwiches known to mankind. Im talking HUGE. The waiter was like err are you sure you want that many sir? And we were like YES GODDAMN IT! And we also got free refill ice tea lol (it was self service but we kept sending our Philipino waiter to get some more for us:P).
The waiter then came and commented that Kareem looked a lot like Brendan Fraser. Which is sort of true I guess... barring the fact that Brendan Fraser is actually a very well respected actor...while Kareem is a nit that looks like a terrorist:p heh heh. Kareem im sorry, dont retaliate to that:p
Oh and then the waiter told us that he liked "action" movies. But the glint in his eye told volumes about the kind of "action" he swung for...and all his love was directed at poor Brendan...I mean Kareem!
Haha anyway we had a lot of leftover sandwich and we each took ours home. Infact I just took a break during the writing of this article to have another piece of mine, and Kareem just went to do the same. God these sandwiches are good! lol
And now, going back to the old traditions of ZC, we have some lovely pictures, taken on the scene of battle...errr...incident...by me:P
picture 1: greasy hands after carrying a nasty tyre for ages:P
picture 2: me and kareem toasting with pepsi while taha is about 2 kilometers away waiting for us in the heat:p
picture 3: kareem putting more air in the tyres while I dangle an air pressure guage lol.
picture 4: there! tyre fixed! finally! kareem posing next to our handiwork while taha is content in his car:p lol
(note: because MSN is a bitch, the pictures may not be organized in the order I gave them during upload... just bear with it please :) )
Cheers everyone. Hope you enjoyed this entry. We sure as hell had a wild day!
And Kareem, we're not tyre changing virgins anymore! waahaaayyy! *high five* lol
Stay savvy, y'all,
~Zo
22 August Oh The Feet!Haha well being back in Jeddah is just so fun:p
Taha landed about 6 hours before I did (he called me while I was standing in customs lol) and Kareem landed a few hours after me at late night.
So yeah the original gang are all back again haha and we've been hanging out lib-er-aaa-ly! lol
Today we decided to go shopping... all day long.
Haha we had several objectives in mind.
1- Must find new laptops
2- Must buy shoes
3- Must find cheap place to eat because after all those purchases we shall be marginally poor!
Heh heh so we spent all day lazing around in reality:p and because Kareem and Taha had most of their cash in foreign currency, we had to find this money changer lol. Kareem suddenly had much more money than we imagined he would have:S and he was prancing around all day. Oh and on top of that he found out he got an A in A level Biology.
He controlled it really well all day. Then suddenly shouted out "I GOT AN A!" in the car, causing me to nearly swerve into a footpath in shock... stupid bastard. congratulations though, kareem. *frozen fingers salute*
Haha we went to Jarir Mall later, to check out laptops (this was after buying our shoes, and we all got some awesome ones;) ). So yes we were walking and I accidentally touched Taha's arm and got an static electricity shock. Taha started shouting at me blaming me so I touched him and got another shock (luckily its a two way shock and since it was just my fingers but Taha's arm, it affected him much worse). Then I touched Kareem and nothing happened so I guessed my static had run out and I started dragging my feet to charge it up again:P lol Kareem was like "look how the bastards walking no wonder he has static on him". Turns out I was wrongfully blamed!! *angry face*
Kareem touched Taha and the static happened. So heres the test results (presented in table form in honour of Kareems A:P)
TEST RESULT
Taha - Zohaib Static
Kareem - Zohaib Nothing.... Just a very sexy finger brush...ahem
Taha - Kareem Static.
Conclusion: Taha you fucking bastard.
Taha was doing all the static. And then he kept trying to shock us so me and Kareem started running through the mall with him chasing us. And me and Kareem shouted for security, saying "Help! He's trying to 'touch' us!" lol. Taha was arrested and raped.
Just kidding.
Haha so yeah that was the night. All that walking and running around has left me tired, not to mention hours of driving!
lol but it was amazing fun. Love you guys!
~Zo
20 August What A Trip!*yawn*
well im sat here in Abu Dhabi, at the airport in the lounge awaiting my flight back home to Jeddah...which is....crap....still 2 hour of waiting away.
So yes, this visit to Lahore was AMAZINGLY fun lol. We did so much, messed around, did all sorts of crazy shit, and for a while, I actually forgot the magnitude of events that were weighing down on my head lol. For example, despite the fact that I havent slept much last night and Im dog tired, AND im sitting in an airport...I have the UK Student Visa application procedures open and im committing it all to heart!
Lol i need help. So yes, back to the hectic lifestyle in Jeddah. But now that I think about it, my holidays in Pakistan are definitely more hectic and a lot less relaxing than just sitting around lazing at home!!!! lol maybe my regular lifestyle is a tad bit lazy *shrug*
Anyway I just thought Id drop in a little hello, let people know that Im making a comeback fulltime to blogging lol. No more holiday daze to hold me down:D
Take care everyone. See you after another 4 hour flight!
~ Zo 18 August Something Id Like To Sayomg yes!
I GOT IN TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MANCHESTER!
WOOHOO!!!!!
Right well now that thats out of the way, I'll write something a little more meaningful and heartfelt....
nah im still rebounding around the room like a jackass! omg omg omg omg omg lol!
anyway the heartfelt words will have to wait until later. Everyone, peace be upon the world! Im sick and I probably dont know exactly what im saying in this sweaty haze but HA!
lol see you all later!
Zohaib 04 August Supercalafrajalisticespialadocious!Im so fucking wasted. hhahaaha
oh fuck why am i online i can barely fukcing see. lol i wrote fucki grr fuck sing.
umm ok nevermindgoona go doo something else.
EEERAA!
ahem
Zohafg 30 July Slow Down...Sort Ofheh heh I just woke up about an hour ago. Everyone else in the house here is still asleep, except Zunair, whose gone to play golf (yeah, he's gonna be in the PGA Tour soon! Look out for him in the Dubai Amatuer too, all you golfers out there!) Anyway, so yeah I woke up, and rather than spending a few boring hours doing nothing (and the fact that I dont feel like going downstairs) I decided to slow things down a little and give you a bit more of a flyby of my trip so far. And as you can probably tell, I dont have a hangover today :D
Other than that Ive been meeting a few new people. OMFG you know sometimes you meet those ladies; like your aunts friends? And ALL they can talk about (show off about) is how fucking smart and genius their kids are, getting bloody gold medals in their metric (pakistani system) exams and what not. I was really resisting the urge to laugh in one of their faces when we had to go to this dinner the other night. She was going on about how her kid was an absolute genius blah blah blah blah and then we met him and he was probably the most retarded person Ive met in a long time. He was sooooooo retarded that I felt like slapping my wrist on my forehead and shouting DOII!! I know thats so (racist? mental statist?) of me, to speak ill of the handicapped, but this guy was UNBELIEVABLE. I mean, the guy was dressed in a flowered shirt, tucked into his pants, which were pulled SOOOOOOOOOOOOO HIGH onto his stomach that just looking at it made my crotch ache. HOW DO THESE KIDS SURVIVE THAT KIND OF PRESSURE ON THE GROIN?! A PENIS NEEDS ROOM! OTHERWISE IT CANT GROW UP TO BE A HEALTHY SNAKE! grrrr And ofcourse, he had the standard issue nerd glasses, the really thick ones they use in those 70's movies. And that regulation side-partition hair cut. I bet his daddy beats him if even one hair is out of place. And then ofcourse, he had a voice like a duck. Now thats just classic. I told his mom that I had the asian regional record for the highest score in GCE English lol. That shut her up real good:P But on a more serious note; why is it that moms feel the need to show off about their kids? I mean my mom sure as hell doesnt. She spends most of her time trying to cover up the shit that I get up to. I think the showing off stems from a deep insecurity people have around others. You think everything you have isnt as good as theres, cars, house, wife/husband, etc etc and so you try to find that one thing that you have. A kennel of nerds in your house.
Anyway, trying to keep life real lol. On a brighter note, any of my friends in Lahore, if you read this, please give me a ring? Help pass my boring life lol. My number here is 03044076444! Cheers all! ~Zo 29 July Back In LahoreRight well, Im back in Lahore, Pakistan, and the past few days have been some of the most fun Ive had in a very long time!
It all started on the 26th, on the plane here. The best thing about flying first class with Ittehad Airways is that they have the FINEST airhostesses lol. And their seats are arranged JUST so that your eyes are on the airhostesses ass level. Quite tantalizing.
Plus they give you tons of booze for free:D
So yes I had a very unsober 14 hours of travel between Jeddah and Lahore, with a long layover in Abu Dhabi which I spent quite wasted in the First Class lounge lol.
Coming to Lahore has been amazing fun. Been partying with my cousins, watching movies, oh and driving :D
Yes, we speed tested the M3, except we were doing it at night so we didnt go all the way to the top of the speedometer, but we did hit 170mph and took a tight as curved turn at ike 100mph. To top it all off, we had the M3's hood down, so the wind was battering us senseless. The video I made wasnt very clear in the dark, but I'll get on a daytime version ASAP.
Oh and at one point I was going to lick the BMW Monogram for 'some' reason *bares teeth at Katie*
Lol umm thats pretty much it. Katie, Im gonna try to find some Malibu Rum here, but I think its hard to come by, so I'll see what rums I get my hands on! And I'll try the malibu orange:p
My throat is currently fucked because of a flat line I had lol. A Flatline (the way we made it lol) is the more heavy rum at the bottom, with a line of hot sauce, topped with gin to the top. I think thats what we put anyway, Im too wasted to remember lol. But anyway, the end result is you get a thin red line right in the middle of the glass, and it fucked my system up lol (too much hot sauce)....oh and I had a glass of plain hotsauce right after....I have no idea why please dont ask me.
Anyway pretty sober at the moment. Waiting for the phase of boredom to pass. Thats the thing with holidays lol. If they start with a pomp and flaire, you expect it to continue right the way through, but eventually the hubbub fades and everything normalizes again. And thats not fun lol. Oh well, lets see what happens.
I just watched Basic Instinct 2. Sharon Stone reminded me of someone....Im not going to give away who, but I'll tell her myself:p so if I dont tell you...well, its not you :P Whoever you are, mystery reader!
Anyway drop in a comment everyonce in a while peeps, I get bored and awful lonely with no feedback!:P
Cheers!
~Zo 25 July And So We FlyLol prepare for a totally out of the blue shocker.
Im flying out tomorrow! Gonna go to Dubai and after a bit of a layover, on to Lahore, Pakistan! Woohoo!
I know, generally I create a big commotion every time I travel, and I travel a lot, so I end up moaning about it a lot, so I figured this time Id just take it easy.
I intend to take pictures of all the cars this time round, especially the M3, and maybe a few pics and vids of us topping the meter on that baby and touching 300 kmh :D
So yes, may not write in for a while, but dont worry! I shall return, just like a bad disease!
Love you all people. Wish me a safe flight!

Ive been so bored that despite the fact that I have nothing to do all day, I still havent been writing in here OR writing any of my stories or books!
AAhhhHHHHHhhhHHHhhhHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
*takes deep breath to calm self*
And Ive been sleeping at the most ungodly hours imaginable to man. I mean you can attribute every hour of the day to some activity, right? 8am is work, Noon is lunch, 4pm is time to go home, 6pm the sports come on, 8pm is dinner, 9pm is the kids bed time, 10pm is when you get it on with the wife, blah blah.
Obviously the times can be adapted to individual lifestyles. Thats what makes time UNIQUE.
....
That and the fact that its beyond our perception to concieve a world without time, the existence of time compression in a black hole, the theory of beginnings, blah blah blah blah *BANG shoots self in head*
So yes anyway you have those hours during the afternoon when you're supposed to be keeping yourself busy right? I SLEEP during those hours. Fucking hell. Today I woke up at 8pm. And the worst part is i felt like going back to sleep as soon as I woke up. And then I went out into the living room trying to make a fresh looking face and pretend that Id been up for hours. My dad gave me the most fear inspiring glare I have ever seen, almost enough to make me keel over and...fall asleep again. *sigh*
So yes I decided that I need to do something with my life other than sleep, watch TV or anime, sleep, masturbate, eat, or sleep. So I went out for a little drive.
Driving in Jeddah, ofcourse, is like playing track race cars with satan. Remember those toy car race tracks you used to get as a kid? The ones where you join the tracks and then you put that battery operated car on it and it goes zoom zoom making the most annoying sound ever. And then as a kid you sit there and stare at it drooling, wondering how these magic cars of god work.
So yes anyway, driving in Jeddah is like THAT, except ofcourse its SATANS TRACK, so you have cars going in opposite directions on the same track as yours, and people swearing, screaming, and dying all around while satan sits there and drools watching you.
And no im not over reacting, driving here really is that bad! (Saudi Arabia has the highest motor vehicle accident mortality rate in the world. Ive already mentioned it before but because its something to think about, Ive said it again.)
In the end I stopped off at the local mall to buy a new PS2 game. Ive been putting off buying Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones because I havent yet finished the second installment in the game series. And the fact that its always out of stock. Anyway, I loved the first PoP because of all those witty comments he would make; reminds me of me sometimes :D. He stopped doing that in the second part so I stopped playing the second part. Yeah I know, Im picky.
So anyway, the dude I buy my games from (Mustafa; happy Kareem? :P) finally had PoP: The Two Thrones in stock. I did not hesitate and I bought it. Ha. Beat that, all you impulsive shoppers out there. *sticks out tongue*
I came home.
Got comfortable.
Caressed my PS2....errr.
Put the game in.
Sat back.
...
..
.
And watched it not load. The fucker didnt work! *sigh*
See? You see what I have to deal with?! In the end I ended up playing Winning Eleven Soccer (And I led Spain to win the World Cup yet again woopdifuckingdoo) and then I got really worked up and started doing football tricks in my room and umm almost broke my mirror. *blush*
I resign myself to the whims of boredom. Theres fireworks going on outside. Im going to go lie down on one of them and hope it gives me third degree burns.
Take care everyone! Hope your lives arent quite as boring as mine!

20 July Shopping... *shudder*Now something I feel I should point out. I hate shopping. I hate all forms of shopping. I happen to be a very efficient miser and I like the feel of money in my pockets.
So anyway, as it was my cousins last day in Jeddah (meaning I will be spending one EXTREMELY boring week here alone) we decided to go out shopping. I wasnt about to sit home all day on my own, so I tagged along with them.
So yes we spent the day going to the likes of Armani, Prada, Givnchy, Aigner, Loius Vuitton, and a whole lot more of people who apparently have EXTREMELY bad taste in clothing because of the gazillion things there, but only a handful that a person finds interesting.
Anyway I feel shopping is very dangerous. :S this store attendant kept showing me this one Prada jacket and he was like it looks splendid on you sir blah blah and I have to say he was right, i looked like a sexy beast:D
I was actually thinking of buying it (on my new credit card lol) when i saw the price. 8000 fucking riyals. thats about 2000 US dollars, or 128000 Pakistani Ruppees lol. And the scary part is... For a second I considered buying it anyway, seeing as it was JUST within my credit limit:S
Credit cards are bad. Shopping is very very bad. lol.
Still got a good 6 hour long walk, so it wasnt so bad :D

18 July Hectic!!!wow ive not been able to write in for a few days now! life has just been so immensely busy!
heres some of the highlights! - I have not been getting any exercise and I look like a pig:( so i started working out a bit lol. - Bought an Xbox 360 with my cousins. GodDAMN that console has graphics. we were sneaky and we hooked it up to the big plasma tv (60 inches, kareem and taha:p) and played on high definition. AMAZING. Ive never seen graphics as realistic. We played Condemned and i almost pissed myself.:S - Went to Madina for 2 days. I swear I think I saw a real life angel in the portion of the Prophets Mosque thats supposed to be a part of heaven itself. Saw the Holy Prophets grave too! lol (anyone who doesnt understand, sorry thats all just muslim talk:P) heh heh ive begun rediscovering my faith and talking to god again so thats cool. I feel so clean and pure lol. I just need to stop being a weird sinning bastard now!! - I am busy 24/7 with my cousins, taking them out, driving them around, putting up with their incessant disses about me like a good host lol. - Going to Dubai hopefully for a few days on the 26th before I head off to Lahore. YAY! Parties, loose women and liquor!!!!! lol there goes my new found religiousness:P haha but seriously im going to try being the good boy this time round :D
- Dads trying to buy a new car. Trying. lol. like he picked out this SEXY CL600 Mercedes with a V12 engine, but then he spent too long thinking about it and someone else just bought it straight out and now he'd have to like order a new one and it would take forever yadda yadda lol. He's currently looking at a 2005 BMW 730. Kareem, any comments on the drive and stuff? lol Um yeah well thats about it. Now that I think about it, its not a whole lot. But trust me, its enough to clog a day COMPLETELY lol. Take care all! See you around! Oh and to the anonymous person that commented; Thanks a bunch, whoever you are :) that comment meant a lot! Cheers! ~Zo 11 July The Thing About Women...lol i have this really strange problem. Then again, maybe its because im just a guy, but I cant help checking out every hot woman I pass lol. And I have to admit, they get pretty hot sometimes!
Anyway, so women just love their perfumes right? I mean Ive never seen a woman thats not swathed in some of the most enticing scents made by mankind. And the thing is, the very smell of women sends my hormones raging:S it freaks me out lol, like if a hot woman walks by and i get a whiff of that perfume, im dazed for a few seconds. Maybe its just an allergic reaction lol.
Anyway so I just realised that as of recent, Ive started holding my breath when someone really fine passes by me so I cant smell and keep my mind on important stuff:S Clever lol. But slightly disturbing too lol.
And my little brother just downloaded a bunch of Pussycat Doll's music videos.... I cant stop drooling...
