Post of Mind

Two (ok, three ^^;) days before take off. What I feel rests a mystery. For some, Paris could be heaven on earth. I'm not sure they're wrong.
Just can't prove they're right.

How can a city so beautiful be loathed? Because it's foreign. Because it's foreign, it's unwelcoming. Because it's unwelcoming, it's cold. Because it's cold, it's bitter.

And let's face it, I feel as if I have the obligation to feel blessed being there just because millions of people where I come from would consider it as one. Screw, the hell, outta that.

Haha.. I feel obligated..
Great, that must've sounded incredibly grateful.

New Template!

First of all, a huge thanks to teh Ninit for her kind attention to the survival of my blog, hehe. She sent me an email earlier, suggesting me to download, modify, and (as bonus) get personalized help from her through MSN :)

After hours in front of the laptop screen trying to alter html codes, this is what the screen came to look like ^ ^; In fact, this is just the amature version of this (a very well designed collaboration blog). I think I'll stay with this template for long. So people, don't get bored!!! ;)

Anyhoo, today I came across one of the most valuable reasons why I have friends' (read: acquaintances) id's on MSN. Simple really, because they know things I don't. Besides, it's always a hoot to say 'hi' in -let's say- 3 years and find out that he's currently doing a training course in one multinational company, graduating next year, engaged, divorced with 3 kids. Kidding. Anyhoo, then normally I'd quickly check to the nearest mirror and ask myself, "where have I been all these years? Did I give out the wrong address?" ;p

So this happened. I was still busy with my html codes when my mom threw a question of when the first day of Ramadhan will fall this year. I completely ignored her thinking that the other two carbon-based creature in the room would respond. Well, they did... just not the way they were supposed to.

Turned out that the most intelligent answer probable at the time was, "sometime soon" which forcefully let out a -why-were-you-born-son-?- type of look from mom. Grasping the last hopes for intelligence on her daughter's part, she turned to me (ha!). At first I thought I'd do a google on this but found out soon enough that I couldn't be bothered ^ ^;

So I turned to my reliable messenger.
I screened to pick out the most eligible person. FTS .::El sNeFrOs::. grabbed my attention instantly. Muslim. Egyption. Pharaon. Perfect. *loh?*

Omar (el snefros) said that it should be around the 4th of October. Which means it would be around the first day of school. Yippee (read in most dullest tone). Well, take care everyone. Oh, and hope you like my new template ;)
