Hello folks. How you all been doing.. I know no ones gonna answer that in the comments but anyhow.. This last week end didn’t go so well for me, for a couple of reasons. Some of them are what I will not write about here, but the rest.. oh well, read on.

I was already have some diaherrea problems, and since I m on night shifts for my job , I cam home in the morning on Friday, my office is  like an hour and a half away from my home, so when I was home, I had to ruch to the toilet, picture this a dark toilet and no electricity, so obviously I had to lit the candle (bad idea), which was super small already (being the lazy ass I didn’t get a bigger one :P), so any how I did what I had to do in the toilet, spent like 15-20 minutes, and then came out, there still was no electricity and I wasn’t sleepy and I had to go for Friday prayers too, so I just popped up my ipod and watched movies, like 10 minutes later, I could smell plastic burning.. Holy F***, I ran upstairs and open the toilet door only to find black smoke, yes the tanka nd comode had been gone, not really the comode but the seating the tissues, and the rest of the stuff near the sitting place Yes ! Oh crap, what a way to start the week end. I had to put it out and stuff, I was all black and my room and the whole of upstairs was a mess in no time.. Took me a while to put out the fire and restroe oxygen :S

Anyhow, after that, the Friday prayers and sleep. Next day I had to head for Asim’s place for some stuff, and boy I almost had a fight with his bro’s friend, on some work issues, mofo wants work, and won’t pay, thats the crappy part, I did the work and got paid super less. Never am I going to work for him any more. Yes I ended a business relationship, a rather bitter one. He doesn’t really get the design business, and no barely anything about the design industry of the use of a creative mind.

And I still had diaherrea throughout the week end. crap crap crap. Monday was better.

Found this image to be awesome.

It’s been around 2 months or more since I leaft Creative Chaos, yet my connection, friendship and love with these folks is still the same. The reason is the kind of environment we had and a strong communication that we had developed among us.

Any how, the reason I m writing this post is plain simple, I had another day with the people at Creative Chaos and it was awesome. I got to see my desk again, whihc has now been taken over by Sundus, who proudly declares she stole my desk, yeah well considering all my stuff is still in her possession, she might have haha !

I was also taken back by the fact that most of the things I left back at Creative Chaos, are still there, and mostly the way there, which is not only a way of expressing the care that others have towards one another.

Any how, I was coming back from work, I have night shifts now btw (got to work San Fransisco hours now), which was around 12 in the afternoon, and I got a call from Omair, asking if I was free for lunch, I was tired but as soon as I came to know it’s a lunch with my former collegues and friends at Creative Chaos, I agreed right away, and Omair picked me up from near by.

We headed for the office, and had some time there, and I got to meet the two new employees at CC, in the design department. They’re pretty nice people, I hope they enjoy at CC as much as they can along with doing their work.

The rest is all cool till now..

I got to grab some sleep, so I got to head home.

I was just hopping on teabreak and found this:

Looks awesome doesn’t ? Taken from here.

Found on Pizory via Teabreak.

Great work !

It’s been a couple of days since I had landed in Karachi on the 1st November, and since then I’ve become pretty busy here, yes I also found a better job, which is more relevent to my experience as a web designer.

Not only that, but i’ve also been offered alot of jobs since I came back, and most of them were of great value, but I had to point myself to one direction, so I opted joining Xuqa. It’s an online gaming company, which means I’ll also be learning a good deal of flash, so I can be a part of the game development team, which is good. I m hoping to master the Actionscript area mostly.

Other than that, I went to visit my old office Creative Chaos, and had some good time spent there, met the old folks, maaaaan I miss that place.

Anyways, I was late yesterday at my work place, and I then I saw one of my former collegue online, who was also at her work place, fortunately she lives near my house, so I asked her if she could drop me near my place, to which she agreed, I’d like to thank her for that.. many many thanks. A million thanks.

Oh I’d also like to tell the world that my Dubai trip was good, awesome with the people at the office, and my relatives, but otherwise Dubai is not a place to live, atleast for a guy like me, I m not a fan of too much luxury and honestly Dubai is a place for tourists..

Any how, I’d like to thank these people from Illusio: Mr. Ronaq, Shuja, Mansoor, Babar, Shahzeb, Saahir, Riaz (boy oh boy), Murtaza, Naeem, Murtaza, Aurangzeb, Sajid. Thank you so much.

Oh and I’ve been talking to lady ‘M’ recently like 10 minutes for two-three days already.

The rest all seems cool for now, I hope to have a good time at Xuqa. Got to hit the sack now.

I had been busy working at a company called “illusio” in Dubai for about a month now, and the two things that I m doing or was doing were the website and the brochure. The website is live now. You can see it in action here.

It’s not a very big website, and the biggest challenge in this website was the content. Which one would feel is still missing from alot of places, since the company is not willing to do the copywriting again, and they have a very scattered record of their old projects, though things are being skimmed on that part.

I m hoping to complete the brochure soon too.

Lets see what you have have to say about this.

I was out of the office last weekend, and boy it was so much fun.

We went to a dance club, and got out of there at around 3 in the morning, and it was a pretty good expereicne, I m not the kind of guy who would hit on every other girl, I already have one, so I just danced with the people I went there with, and most of them were from my office.. Awesome expereince.

We then went to Tauseef’s apartment in Ajman, which I should say is pretty good compared to our living place, which is not big, we dont stay much home either, but then again, it feels good to have a big living place, any how, we went to Tauseef’s house, and had some fun, but then slept so we could go to the pool in the morning, and then it tuns out we woke up at around 4 pm the next day.. boom boom pooo !

We had to skip the pool idea and went other places instead, roamed around, and then went to watch Max Payne.. what a bad idea ! The movie doesn’t live up to it’s hype at all, first it tries to look like it’s some kind of a horror flick, but then it’s not. The movie is pretty slow, and doesn’t seem to be able to build it’s story line properly. Honestly, my opinion is that it’s not really worth the money, so download it and watch it instead of visiting the cinema

The rest is just usual.

Above were some of the thigns I’ve been doingd, looking, enjoying.. blah blah!

Other than that, life is pretty much the normal..

I would’ve wanted to share another video or two, but I missed the links, and I m pretty lazy to even look for them.. damn!

Oh and for the record (what record..huh?), I did enjoy Eagle Eye, it’s an old concept worked out in a nice way..

I’ve also updated my tumblr account.. with a bunch a crap.

And here are two artworks I did recently!

Yeah that’s what I mean, and first off, I m kind of missing Babrus, here in Dubai, but I hope he settles what he went karachi for.

Anyways, most of the stuff is the same here as it was, same old 9-6 work routine.. Crap.. Why one would ask.. I m in Dubai man, and I don’t even know dubai properly.. shit man…

It’s the usual work routine hee, same old getting up 8 and getting all ready, watchign my CEO play World of Warcraft.. I m not much a fan of games, cept that I love playing Need for Speed Carbon, that we donot have here.

So what I do is when we’re done with the work, we either sit outside our apartments in the open air, ad discuss things, or go out to the nearby mall.. Or sit at the office and use the internet.. man this wasn’t the kind of life I liked, but its’s a bachelors life.. I mean I can do alot, but I wold prefer not to.. I’ve got my own reasons for that.

Anyways, I felt I shold write all that crap for no reason.. bye.

Incase you’re going to question the random map on the above image, that is the percentage of poverty in the world right now, as can be shown on the left.

As for the issue of poverty in general. We usually take things for granted, think about our own problems and consider them very big, take a look at the corporate mess for example, you’ll see everyone wants a piece of a pie, but no one wants to pay for it. It’s a normal yet not normal way of thinking.

Take a look at the nature, we’ve eaten it up, without thining about the consequences, we are the selfish beings we thought we are not. yet we stand at a global problem, where food and resources are getting scarce ay by day, and not so slowly humans are dying of hunger, and rot on the land.

What would you say ? If you were one of them ? I honestly wouldn’t say much, because not many would listen, regardless how hard I screamed for help, only a few gifted people on the planet actually take the iniitative to help others.

On this day, I would like to use this oppurtunity to urge people that please for god sake consider what we do, and act, and how we waste the resoueces, we could instead send that to those who need it most. The medicines, food supplies, clothing and what not. We know many people don’t live in a house, simply because they cannot afford it, so they live directly under the sun and the moon. Without shelter, few pieces of cloth, no food and very little drinkable water, the life of one becomes very pathetic. So please, please think about how we can help those who need our support the most. This world is our mother, and the humans are it’s children, that makes the poor our rothers and sisters, and humans look after each other, specially the loved ones, it’s time that we help our brothers and sisters who need us.

I was being a lazy chap and staying in the office most of the time, but any how since one of my uncle (my moms bro) and his family was around and they had planned to take me out, as it’s been around a week since I’ve been in Dubai and haven’t been out !

So any how, we went out today, finally after the namaz timings, my uncle came to pick me up, and so started the journey, we went through a long route to emirates mall, and boy I think saw some awesome things on the road, the beautiful buildings, the awesome new tracks for the (in the city) train, the beautiful roads and cars. And then the all itself, the people there, and the beautiful you know what.. Oh and I loved the gadgets there.. and honestly I’d like to thank that uncle for forcing me to buy something, even though I didn’t want to, but still they got me a T-shirt. Thanks fo that and the awesome dinner too.

I also enjoyed the snow area at the emirates mall, not only was it a time to connect with my cousins well, we also had lots of fun there. All snow, low temperatures and loads of fun !

Then we headed off for dinner which was plain delicious ! Thanks mamo and mami !

Any how, we enjoyed the whole trip, or atleast I did….
