Dramas are not that bad after all…

I recently started watching dramas since my life partner has been working on a big project so I decided to pass my time to do something fun. Dramas are addictive and it definitely depends on which ones you end up watching. Like movies, some movies keep you on the edge and some you just want to forward to the end. Compared to movies, I think making dramas are more hectic and time-consuming. A movie is about 2-3 hours but dramas are longer, and definitely longer than 3 hours …

The first drama I watched was called ‘Meri Zaat Zara-e-Benishan’based in Pakistan, and I must admit, it is a well-written drama. Would I recommend it? Definitely yes. I give this drama 9 out of 10 because the story is based on a true story and had the best actors. If you get a chance, go ahead and watch it. I think Youtube has become a great website to watch dramas and I give props to that. This drama was not too long and made me cry til the end.

The second drama I watched was ‘Azhar ki Ayegi Baraat,’ again an amazing drama with lots of funny jokes and a romantic love story. However, I would give this a 7 out of 10, I felt something was missing in the drama. After watching this drama I took a month break and started an Indian drama. Keep in mind, Indian dramas are longer than Pakistani dramas or maybe it was just a coincident.

The third drama was ‘Baba Aisa Var Dhoondo’ – it was a definitely a new story with different mentality and goals but after 50 episodes (30 minute each) it became boring and I gave up. I would give this 7 out of 10 for the first forty episodes and 5 out of 10 for the next ten. The new episodes are still being aired  and I may start again when it fully ends. Maybe my rating would change.

The fifth and sixth drama is called ‘Kitni Mohabbat Hai’ – there are two sets to this drama, with the same main actor and actress but two different love stories and I would definitely recommend both of them. I would rate the first one 8 out of 10 and 9 out of 10 the second one. Keep in mind, its very long so start if you have time, because you will get addicted.

Currently I am watching ‘Is Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon’ and is an Indian drama which is still being aired. And for now, I would say it had kept me on the edge since it started (July 2011). It has great moments in every episodes, lovey dovey and funny.

One of my cousins recommended me ‘Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna,’ I haven’t watched it, and it started in October 2011 so its pretty brand new. If I end up watching it, I will definitely update you on it.

After watching these interesting dramas I realized how I love romantic dramas may it be Indian or Pakistani, and this is motivating me to write a romantic story novel. What do you think??

Well if you know a good romantic drama that you would like to share, do let me know. Thanks.

My mistake = My loss

I do not have the same relationship with my older brother anymore. My mistake = my loss. I don’t know how I feel about this. He has become so different and I would rather keep my distance from him from now onwards. Every family has problems but I thought not the smart ones, because they are more understanding. I think mom has always kept us together, and hopefully she always does. On my last year birthday, my brother asked me what I wanted and I had given him the wish list of things to get and NOT to get. However, he picked an item from Not to get. I didn’t like the gift and was really mad… anyways, he was hurt and never had the same relationship again. He keeps his distance with me and he is not the same anymore.

This is the story, and he still believes its my mistake, so I guess my mistake = my loss… it has been more than a year and I thought this is past our relationship but isn’t. He will never forget or forgive, even though I did. After seeing him, I have now started the distance from him and will now keep it that way. He was my role model and a father figure but sadly not anymore. He was more of a best friend to whom I could share anything but not anymore. It’s hurtful and sad but it’s the truth of my life now. I will miss out on my niece and he will miss out on my kids (if I have any). I guess when guys get married, they change as well. So my point is, even smart families break apart. The communication is disappearing nowadays since this high tech phones with text and chats are around, so we would only text now and that’s about it.

Is confronting important?? I don’t think so because people cannot seem to take constructive criticism in a good way anymore. People in the workforce do take it from their bosses and are used to it since they have to take it but not the people who don’t work or who don’t have to take it at work. I take criticisms but don’t give anymore. I used to, but when I did, I lost the people. They thought I had no right to give them one… so I stopped, I don’t give criticisms, but I give my honest answer if people question me something. Maybe I can keep that real right?

I think I have two problems: I am too honest and I talk too much… I need to control and work on that, seriously… even though I hate liars and their cleverness, I should just relax and take it as a joke all the time. Even if people are being selfish I should just shut up… anyways, the reason I am writing so much is because there was a lot inside me and I wanted it out… I am feeling so confused and disturbed by some people and the way they hurt me. I hope God is watching as to how people are. Actually no not really, I forgive them. I don’t want them to be hurt because they are my friends and I wouldn’t be able to see them in problems. Anyways, it’s okay God – don’t do anything, just do good things for them. They are nice people to begin with but become kind of crazy sometimes.

I should be thankful as to what I have and spread my love. Anyways, things happen for a reason. I have some goals to accomplish and therefore need to work on them.

Thinking about life…

I have been thinking about my life these days. Maybe there is something missing in life. I mentioned to a friend how I felt and she suggested to have kids? Now that’s a life changing event lol, definitely. So am I ready? Not really, I think I might want to have one because other people are having it but is that a good reason? Mmm, did you notice I said ‘I would like to have one’ which definitely means I am not ready.

So my better half wants some time as well since he is been working on a big project. Maybe I should focus on myself. I see I got acne last year and then my weight has been up tremendously. I am not feeling good lately either, bad tummy problems especially the digestive issues. Soooo what should I do?? Focus on myself. Lets do it, lets make some goals so I can focus and improve myself first, why bring a kid to a stressful relationship… so hello gym!!!

ID needs contact number line…

Hello All,

I found a wallet in the GO Train with more than 500 dollars in it. I told my best friend, and he advised to keep it since I had lost my Iphone a week earlier … I went through the wallet to find a contact number but didn’t find one. Lesson learnt – put your phone number on the wallet so people can actually call when they find the wallet. It’s true, we do not have phone numbers on any of our Identification i.e. Health card, Drivers license and so forth.

I found her high school student card, so I called school and they informed her parents since she graduated 2 years ago. We met in few hours and I returned the wallet. She thanked me since that money was for her books. I am glad I found the wallet and returned to her.

Lesson learnt: put your contact number on the wallet somewhere!

Bye for now.

October 2011…

Hello All,

I haven’t written for a while now, but been busy. I know that sounds bad but my time is flying by very fast. Its Movember already, traditionally called November, my winter jackets, mitts and scarves are all out in use, and Cinnamon lattes are out in Starbucks. Have to get used to it now.

Highlights of October

–         Lost my Iphone 4, this was only a year old. I went over to my friends place and it fell out of my pocket. It was pouring rain and realized after two minutes but someone had picked it up from the floor. So I told my friend to see on MOBILEME (smart way to track you phone) and she saw someone running with it in the parking lot, I ran to see but no one was there. It felt like I had lost someone really important and that bought me down, even though it’s just a phone, I was hurt. Why are we so attached to our cell phones?

–         Iphone 4S – it came out only 2 weeks ago, therefore was sold out everywhere. Stood in line at APPLE and finally got one. I was given two options by my carrier Fish (made up name), either buy a brand new phone for $649 plus tax OR break the contract and get into a new contract, which will cost $450 + $169 = $619 plus tax. Jeez louis, so an angel helped me, who said, to leave Fish and go to another carrier like Rat (even though these companies are combined). And I did and signed a new contract which cost me $169 plus tax.

–         Having no phone for 4 days was hard but I learnt a lesson, BACK UP MY IPHONE on a monthly basis since I lost everything, my pictures/videos and especially contacts. Boo…

–         To me, Iphone 4 and 4s is pretty much the same, not a lot of difference, so if you guys can wait, go for the Iphone 5 when it comes next year.

Ciao!
