First intraclass competition of our class was held in our college and i was named as its supervisor. I took it as a challenge because I had never done these kind of organizing activities. I had always hated organizing things. I thought that i was not good at them. So i didnt take part in these kind of activities. But this time i was ready to face my fears.
It was a very good experience for me. All the students of our class participated in it. Everyone helped and supported me. Some evil persons are always there, but i accept my classfellows as they are. I accept their good as well as bad things.
I took part in english speech and stood first in english speech competition. It was my maiden speech and i was confused too.
Mushtaq, Shoaib, Qaiser, Saeed, Farhat, and Arshad Ali’s speeches were good. But for me Mushtaq was man of the show.
I want to thank some people that supported me. First of all i would like to thank Latif for being so active and sincere. He helped me a lot. As Mushtaq said he worked like 5 men. Rahim Gul and Fayaz worked efficiently. Shaheer was also good with charts. Neelam Nazir and Rehana Taskeen designed the charts and arranged them well. Imran as always is simple and helpful. Farman, Khalida Ikram and Huma Nazir were good compares.
Ayesha Manzoor with a monalisa’s smile on her face, was helpful. I never minded her criticism. I took it positively and it helped me building a good environment. Three people impressed me. Sara Gul with her devotion, Sumera Asfand with her knowledge, Shehzad with his passion.
At the end i want to thank my deariest and lovely friends Omer Amin, Fawad, Shoaib and Qaiser for helping, supporting and beleiving in me.
I saw for the first time a leader in me during the arrangements of this event.
I wish I could be one …

The Story of the One-Eyed Mother
April 13, 2008 at 5:51 pm (All posts, Share)
Tags: Mother, One-Eyed mother, Story
This story touched me… i hope that it has an effect on you too…
“My mom only had one eye.
I hated her… she was such an embarrassment…
She cooked for students & teachers…to support the family.
There was this one day during elementary school and my mom came.
I was so embarrassed. How could she do this to me?
I threw her a hateful look and ran out.
The next day at school…
“Your mom only has one eye?!?!”…eeeee said a friend.
I wished my mom would just disappear from this world.
So I said to my mom, “Mom… Why don’t you have the other eye?!
If you’re only gonna make me a laughing stock, why don’t you just
die?!!!”
My mom did not respond…
I guess I felt a little bad, but at the same time, it felt good to
think that I had said what I’d wanted to say all this time…
Maybe it was because my mom hadn’t punished me, but I didn’t think
that I had hurt her feelings very badly.
That night…
I woke up, and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water.
My mom was crying there, so quietly, as if she was afraid that she
might wake me.
I took a look at her, and then turned away.
Because of the thing I had said to her earlier, there was something
pinching at me in the corner of my heart.
Even so, I hated my mother who was crying out of her one eye.
So I told myself that I would grow up and become successful.
Then I studied real hard. I left my mother and went to Singapore to
study.
Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. Then I had kids,
too…
Now I’m living happily as a successful man.
I like it here because it’s a place that doesn’t remind me of my mom.
This happiness was getting bigger and bigger, when…
What?! Who’s this?!
It was my mother…Still with her one eye.
I felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me.
Even my children ran away, scared of my mom’s eye.
And I asked her, “Who are you?!” “I don’t know you!!!” as if trying to
make that real.
I screamed at her, “How dare you come to my house and scare my
children!”
GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!”
And to this, my mother quietly answered, “Oh, I’m so sorry.
I may have gotten the wrong address,”
and she disappeared out of sight.
Thank goodness… She doesn’t recognize me. I was quite relieved.
I told myself that I wasn’t going to care, or think about this for the
rest of my life.
Then a wave of relief came upon me…
One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house in
Singapore.
So, lying to my wife that I was going on a business trip, I went. After
the reunion, I went down to the old shack, that I used to call a
house… Just out of curiosity
There, I found my mother fallen on the cold ground. But I did not shed
a single tear.
She had a piece of paper in her hand….It was a letter to me.
“My son…
I think my life has been long enough now…
And… I wont visit Singapore anymore…
But would it be too much to ask if I wanted you to come visit me once
in a while? I miss you so much..
And I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I
decided not to go to the school.
For you…
And I’m sorry that I only have one eye, and I was an embarrassment for
you.
You see, when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost
your eye.
As a mom, I couldn’t stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye…
So I gave you mine…
I was so proud of my son that was seeing a whole new world for me, in
my place, with that eye.
I was never upset at you for anything you did..
The couple times that you were angry with me.. I thought to myself,
‘It’s because he loves me..’
My son… Oh, my son… “
This message has a very deep meaning and is passed to remind people of
the goodness they enjoy is because of others directly or
indirectly.
Pause a moment and consider your life!
Be thankful of what you have today compared to many millions who do not live lives as you do!
Do spend some time in prayer for your parents out there and be good to them !
May Allah forgive us!
Lahore – live, love and laugh

I went to lahore, the heart of pakistan, for some days with my father. It is a wonderful city to be in. There are so many good places in it, like Badshahi Mosque, Minar-e-Pakistan, Lahore Fort, etc. Lahore’s people have big hearts and they share things. They are very humble and polite and they like eating. We also went to food street. We had very tasty dinner there. We went to Wahga border as well. It was an emotional sight. I liked Lahore very much. It is worth visiting place.

I may not be perfect but I am ME
April 5, 2008 at 11:45 am (All posts, Self Exploration, Thoughts, general)
Tags: me, perfect
Everyone here is not perfect, so am I but I am proud to say that I am ME.
Everyone has his or her own limitations. We all are human beings, we cant be perfect like angels. But lets try to be like ourselves. For that first of all we have to realise who we really are. If we can find ourselves. Then we can be like us. The real us and lets be like ourselves.
The problem here with people is that they are not theirselves. They are forced to be someone else. They have lost their individuality and personality. They are dummies and machines. I have seen dead people walking on the streets. People that do not have personality are like robots, they are not alive. They are dead.
Always be yourself, because the people who mind dont matter and the people who matter dont mind.
I wish and pray that we find ourselves.
Steps to happiness

Tags: happiness, steps to happiness
I found this article somewhere on the net and found it interresting so i am sharing it with you.
Everybody Knows:
You can’t be all things to all people.
You can’t do all things at once.
You can’t do all things equally well.
You can’t do all things better than everyone else.
So:
You have to find out who you are, and be that.
You have to decide what comes first, and do that.
You have to discover your strengths, and use them.
You have to learn not to compete with others,
Because no one else is in the contest of *being you*.
Then:
You will have learnt to accept your own uniqueness.
You will have learnt to set priorities and make decisions.
You will have learnt to live with your limitations.
You will have learnt to give yourself the respect that is due.
And you’ll be a most vital mortal.
Dare To Believe:
That you are a wonderful, unique person.
That you are a once-in-all-history event.
That it’s more than a right, it’s your duty, to be who you are.
That life is not a problem to solve, but a gift to cherish.
And we’ll be able to stay one up on what used to get us.
My 6 Golden Rules for Success in Exams
March 16, 2008 at 11:03 pm (All posts, general)
Tags: Exams, Rules, Success
I have my six golden rules to get success in any exam and i am going to share them with all of you today. They work for me. I hope they work for you as well.
Hard work is necessary in achieving any goal. So, you should work hard to prove yourself. Do not waste your talent and potential. If you believe in yourself that you can do it, then start working hard to prove your point. There are no shortcuts to good results, you must go through the hard way to score good marks. Now, if you are prepared to do the hard work, then let’s move a step forward.
The second step is regularity. It is important to develop the habit of studying daily. There is no importance of studying in gaps, it is useless really. Regularity is something which can be developed. I have done that by myself and I know you can do that too, if you are prepared for that.
The third step is the time management. To manage your time is to manage yourself. You should be a good manager if you want to get any position. Remember, to choose time is to save time. You should give every subject the time it deserves depending upon the number of marks each subject have.
You should ask a question from yourself everyday when you woke up. The question is mentioned below.
What would I do today?
You can check whether you are managing your time or not by asking yourself another question daily when you woke up.
Am I heading towards my goal?
Self assessment is also necessary, because it will help you remove your mistakes. Find out where you got wrong in any problem you did wrong. Note your mistake and then try to avoid this mistake in future. Determine the factors which are wasting your time and remove them from your routine.
Get wise and learn from your past mistakes. So start your study schedule from the very beginning, it will reduce the burden of study when the exam is nearer.
Don’t let yourself down. Make amends. There is always room to repair. Prove everyone wrong from your progress. There are examples of people around us when they have bounced back from worst situations and achieved their goals. My advice is to meet with such people to boost your confidence.
Best of luck for your exams. Remember me in prayers…:)
