Few things u just can't explain...

I Recommend : Two Can Play That Game

When it comes to matters of the heart, keeping her man happy and committed is all in a day's work for Shanté Smith. Shanté is so adept at navigating the waters of romance that her best girlfriends Diedre, Karen and Tracye depend on her for advice whenever "man trouble" clouds the horizon. But when Shanté's boyfriend Keith is caught red-handed stepping out with a co-worker, Shanté institutes her "Ten Day Plan" to get her man in line. Whether its sexy lingerie or good home cooking, Shanté has an arsenal of weapons designed to bring a man to his knees...and back to her.

I Recommend : The Wedding Planner

I know everybody must have seen it thousand time already but still its worth mention.

I Recommend : Fools Rush In

Opposites attract in this conventional but refreshingly unpredictable romantic comedy. New York nightclub designer (Matthew Perry, from television's Friends) is in Las Vegas to supervise the construction of a new project when he meets a fiery Mexican beauty (Salma Hayek). It's lust at first sight, and their one-night stand takes an unexpected turn.The major crisis in the movie is the couple learning to adapt to the culture of their new partner. Isabel is from a Catholic Latino family, while Alex is a straight-laced WASP-ish type.

I Recommend : A Time to Kill

"A Time To Kill" is the predictable but engrossing screen adaptation of John Grisham's first book. A story of an up and coming lawyer (McConaughey) who defends a small town Mississippi black man (Jackson) on trial for killing two redneck who raped his young daughter and left her for dead.A great ensemble cast all excel here and the film captures a place that has turned into a media circus very well. A film that you will watch with clenched fists.

When NO actions speak louder than words !

never ever EVER loose heart

Its about 3 mins long but seeing the end ... its worth it !

10 Secrets About Men

1. You don't want to be judged for your looks; we don't want to be judged for our wallets. Unless we're ugly and have lots of money. Then it's OK.
2. You're not the only person who likes to be called "sexy."
3. Saying "I love you" is a major step in a man's life. That's why we wait for you to take that step first.
4. We are not being cheap when we make $35,000 a year and can't afford to pay every single date. We are merely being practical.
5. A guy who spends too much time in the gym is making up for something else that's lacking. Unfortunately, you can't figure out what it is until it's too late.
6. Don't get mad at us because we don't remember what you were wearing on our first date, or the angle of the light during our first kiss. We were probably drunk.
7. You're good in bed if you make us feel like stallions.
8. Jealousy isn't a sign that you love us more, it's a sign that you trust us less.
9. Hanging up on us is a surefire way to make sure we go to bed mad.
10. We're sorry. Whatever it is, we're sorry.

aha ... so close yet so far !

At times its only winning which matters ...

... when luck comes into play !

One of the touchy moments in recent past ... so I was following this singing program for quite sometime . Ofcourse one of the guys was my personal fav because of his behaviour, attitude, personality and ofcourse singing. He made it all the way to top two and perhaps everyone including the judges had him favourite. When for the first time in his lat 10 presentations on stage he made a mistake ....in the final.... in the final round .... in the final song !!! ... Just made me realise how fragile you are as you reach top of the pyramid ... Well the final result is due in 10 days and I don't know what fortune holds for him but was just fasinated how unpredictable luck is ... you know you got talent , you know you are better ... but what a significant difference that small factor of luck makes which goes a long ... ( expressions of host and judges are amazing ... they are in complete shock not expecting it someone like him )

I recommend : Murder at 1600

Murder inside the White House! Who did it -- and why? That's what a hardnosed D.C. homicide cop (Snipes) and hair-triggered Secret Service agent (Lane) uncover in this exciting mystery packed with suspects, cover-ups, covert agents, daring action and an overseas crisis that could blow at any instant.

I recommend : SEVEN

The story follows two detectives, one retiring and one his replacement, jointly investigating a series of ritualistic murders inspired by the seven deadly sins. Over the course of the investigation they attempt to track down the killer before he has a chance to murder his seven victims.

I recommend: TROY

It is the year 1250 B.C. during the late Bronze age. Two emerging nations begin to clash after Paris, the Trojan prince, convinces Helen, Queen of Sparta, to leave her husband Menelaus, and sail with him back to Troy. After Menelaus finds out that his wife was taken by the Trojans, he asks his brother Agamemnom to help him get her back. Agamemnon sees this as an opportunity for power. So they set off with 1,000 ships holding 50,000 Greeks to Troy. With the help of Achilles, the Greeks are able to fight the never before defeated Trojans. But they come to a stop by Hector, Prince of Troy.

I recommend : The Blue Umbrella

Language : Urdu

Its unconventional
Its orthodox
Its beautiful yet
......... its so simple

In today cyber world we have perhaps forgotten taste of natural simplicity. I myself didn't realise until you come across something which makes you think like this, against our so called advanced thinking. Its like everybody is running blindly towards its goal ... all of a sudden we come across something which lets us pause for a second to make us appreciate the inconveniential beauty. At the very moment makes us realise where we have reached as we were completely unaware of our surrounding.

Like those cartoon character which keep on running on a cliff only to realise that cliff has already finished and he is all in but air ... its then when he realises it he fall !

I Recommend : A Few Good Men

Jessep: You want answers?
Kaffee (Tom Cruise): I think I'm entitled to them.
Jessep: You want answers?
Kaffee: I want the truth!
Jessep: You can't handle the truth! Son, we live in a world that has walls. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall.We use words like honor, code, loyalty...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent defending something. You use 'em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to!

To know the meaning to these statments watch one of the best executed court room drama.

I recommend : The Pursuit of Happyness

"You got a dream, you gotta protect it. People can't do something themselves, they wanna tell you that you can't do it. You want something? Go get it. Period. "

Have you ever come across a movie so close to reality that it hurts? Here is one good movie where you will sit there , mouth shut , eyes wide and yearning, mind relating and still holding on to your movie stub. I'm not saying that this is a super duper swell movie BUT! Yes but!! For those who actually love true life accounts and motivational sort of flick, I'll give you two thumbs up for this one.It's a great movie no doubt, great cinematography and none the less Will Smith. Every moment in every scene that man goes through, he fills his character with life.

does everything needs to have some..??
Can an institution like marriage ...
be saluted under certain rule's umbrella

You can't deny until you have given it a shot
Anything can be as good as you believe into it
and I do ...

Inshalah ..!

so its gonna be one tough night today
Inshalah all work up good and things happen in smooth way
Need all kind of prayers ...


Alhamdullilah she got the visa

UNplanned thinking..!!

Well we all have tracks of our own
having our own personal dimensions
lets try to omnidirect our imagination
Just while driving or for that matter walking around
try to get into the skin of the people around
what that guy standing on the signal in the car be thinking
abt house mortgage..?? student study loans??
whats that lonely guy in grocery store was thinking
How to get that special gift for his kid this holidays ???
What that elderly woman while walking be thinking
whats the best deal she can get on groceries this weekend ??

We all have certain dimensions at certain times
Just feel for the one who knows it all and manages the big picture
if you know what I mean .....

Moments !!

Moments....bits and pieces
We have some of our own
sometime we cherish other's ones
at times a single moment of silence says more
than a whole essay of words can explain
we all live in it
lets try to live by it ..

Equally pleasantly eventful - Politically-correct statment ???

Excellent...Fantastic....DONE !!!!!!
That might be the punch line I followed for past few weeks
Things happened at a rapid pace
Before I realise I'm back in US
finally getting some time to recollect as
to how things happened ....
The journey from ME to US was quick but very noticeable
Hope the rest of journey be equally pleasantly eventful

All is still in air ;)

Well its gonna be one of the most unique blog for me ..
will disclose the reasons in couple of days though.
less just say am writing this one from the most unusual place :)
Well next couple of days gonna be kind of busy ....
Family at home has arranged Dholki on Sunday
Hope that gonna be fun
finally got some vibes
though waiting much for shivers ...
Looks like a classic play is getting into grove
I can feel the temptation .....

Excitement !!!!

Life is all about excitement
excitement of
...................... being amongst the top most in the class
...................... being known well amongst your peers
...................... being joining one of the top colleges
...................... being part of one of the best university system
...................... starting up your career
...................... being getting married
...................... having kids
...................... spending a wishful and peaceful life
everybody does get eventually
what he/she has sincerely strived for
BUT
excitement is all about getting those things at right moment .....
at right time !!!!
Lets hope we be one of those
who be able to get that chemistry right !

... they are getting judged too !

So today read that short article ...
really nice to see how ppl try to predict other's behaviour
that guy used to watch ppl's socks !!!!!
to guess about things like human behaviours
their professional expertise..
funny but practical ...
We all have our own ways of gauging ppl
for some ppl its just the first interaction ..
defines everything they need to know abt the other guy
for some its the handshake
some make up their mind on facial looks
while rest take their time to soak in
whatever way it is the only thing they are missing is ..
the very moment they are judging other
.....they are being judged too !!!

Hoping it to be former not later ...

Restless ..
Worried..
Apprehensive ..
Scared to some extent ...
its fearsome why am not getting any one of em so far
am I too planned for all this ???
or am unaware what am getting myself into ..???

Hope it to be former be than later

.....on dressing stuff I think risked too much
by having all stitching done on my arrival
but I know exactly what I want
thus want things done in a certain way
.Hope all jell up nicely by the end of the day..Inshalah

but you never know

Life in fast line ....
all needs to be done so much ahead of time
we plan ahead ... schedule things
just trying to make sure all happen the way we plan ...
but there is always that predicament
that small factor of uncertainty..
you know its there but we always try to ignore it
trying to work around it or perhaps
just close our eyes to it
maybe intentionally...
and when all happens safe we are all happy

but you never know
It perhaps that light garnishing of fear that makes all taste so good in the end !!

either way ....we have to !

So it is like everything happen the way we plan
or
we plan around as things happen ???
either way ..they happen

can we plan to have changes as things happen
or
changes get made as things happen ???
either way ..they happen

do we have to adapt to those changes
or
we just get used to them ???
either way ...we have to !

Tired ...tired .!!!

Don't have front page on laptop

Da Vanci code ..:)

Looks like its better to explain my saturday blog ...here we go :)

So here she was ...we just met in mall
I have bought the ring from the mall
was trying my best to get hold of her for past one week
I bought it last week but was not able to bring it with me as it needs to set to size 6
in our first meeting we had that moment
the first time I saw it I really liked it right away and wanted to buy it ...
though I have been looking for someone like her for long
as you know I was searching for right ring for quite some time
but It was perhaps the end of the day when I suddenly spotted her
I was not supposed to get it back that day I was coming bak from shopping and planned to be there a day before to chek if it was ready
couldn't believe my luck..it was the same place we met for the very first time
it was sized and was placed in the same place in the dislay where it was
The shine on her face was sparkling enough to make me feel the warmth
due to lights all around it was really shinning
I just grabbed her and used my fingers to feel all over her
ofcourse I picked and touched all around to make sure nothing has changed by changing the size
damn.... she was as neat as you can think off
it was job well done and I couldn't see any visible change after sizing
I could feel I'm the first one .......
I was the one who was buying the ring after it was sized
I took the courage to offer her to join me in my apartment
I asked the guy there if I can take it back today rather than tomorrow
Unlike last week this time she couldn't say NO!!!!
ofcourse since it was sized up he said yes..:)
She slipped into blue velvet dress
he put that in a blue ring box
Wasn't she just looking stunning ....
ofcourse the ring looked stunning in the box ...:)
Right now, lying behind me on my cozy bed
when i was writing that ring bag was sitting on my bed
I can't believe my luck ...
My hands were trembling while I unveiled her from that blue top
Ofcourse I brought home and opened that blue box to see how does it look like in natural environment
couldn't keep my eyes on her for long enough
due to sparkle ofcourse ... :).
Its my first time too !!
do i have to explain this one too........:)
Yup you all got it right..
I have finally got the wedding ring for my fiancee after size change...
lying right behind on my bed .. :)

Texas here I come !

Ok ge had a two hour delayed flight to Texas Richardson..

Planning to spend the evening to discover the neighbourhood
Cisco building is right across the hotel

Maybe we can ...its just we don't know

Saw this nice three hour talk today
between Hinduism and Islam
from Vedas to Quran ..
there are so many ways things can be presented
but mind needs justification for each one of them
had all be jutifyable there would never been an argument
perhaps this culture and religious mix is there
to make us think, research and make a better judgement
do we all in the present hustle bustle of life really care for that ???
or may I say should we ????
It loops down to just one single thing
are we capable enough to make that right balance ???
Maybe we can ..its just we don't know..

Is it a mystery ????

Past is history and future is mystery..
How much do we care abt history
for that matter how much we know about our history
let say how much I know abt my history other than my parents
Do we really know or care abt our family trees
Does it worth ..?????
they say one can predict future from history traits ..
If we know the history future is no longer a mystery..!!

Maybe time will tell !!!

Its nice to be in fast lane
things happen at such a pace that
you don't feel the real impact ....
things hit in recoil
are we structured well enough for this
is our response system steel enough
maybe time will tell ..!!!
