Jingle all the way ... :)

Christmas came and went and I didn't even get a Christmas tree :( 

The bad thing for me is that I've lived for so long in Ireland that I like celebrating all occasions and festivals .. irrespective  of my beliefs and religion . So when I ask my friend as a joke where my Christmas present is guess what I get ???? Yeah you got the right " what are you like a christian now !! We don't do Christmas gifts." 

I mean wow !! I wonder how we turned from tolerant and friendly HUMANS to discriminating LOBBIES !!!???? 

Christmas ..whatever the reason and history behind it why shouldn't we celebrate it . Cant we just be happy because we need 'excuses' nowadays to be happy ???Its a part of holiday season .So I don't  see why I should be frowned upon just because I take an interest in different festivals and commemorations that don't belong to my own religion . Its so unfair .Its actually our double standards , because we are ready to go to awesome sales right during Christmas and yet we don't even have tolerance  towards it . Not just Christmas... any occasion . We don't have to follow something religiously or spiritually to just celebrate it . Isn't the reason of a festival just to be happy ?? We don't have to feel happy and celebrate for someones recognition and praise ..its for our own self .

That's what festivals should do ... so please if your one of those people who think  that its 'cool' to laugh on the people who are more welcoming and accepting towards other cultures than you are ...well then go to hell .. or probably you will 'cause of your approach and thinking that's smaller than a pea . 

And for the ones who enjoy Christmas and other happy occasions .... keep on having fun .. buying things for the occasion .... or just being happy because of it . Don't let others bring you down . The people are gonna stay for a long while annoying you at one thing or another .... but who knows whether you'll live to celebrate another occasion . 

Cheerio:)

Erised...

Too often, the thing you want most is the one thing you can't have. Desire leaves us heartbroken, it wears us out. Desire can wreck your life. But as tough as wanting something can be. The people who suffer the most, are those who don't know what they want.

So true it is . This word has mostly ruined lives .. be it singular or plural . We as humans have so many attractions around us that its hard to say no . To give in to these temptations seems the most easiest .  Desiring can take us across the bridge as well as over the cliff . Wanting people ... things ... dreams ... its the same under the bracket of wanting and desiring . 

But in the end desire is the fire that sets the action aflame . Not wanting is an unimaginable thing to me . Ive never seen people say they don't want anything else in life ... and I don't want to stop wanting too. Desire is as simple as wanting water for thirst , food for hunger , oxygen for the blood , love for happiness . Its our second skin to keep on wanting , craving and dreaming for more . This word More should probably be put in as a synonym for desire . Its made our life a living hell . Its ruined relationships , careers and happiness . 

But as much as its a synonym for desire ... its also the second meaning of hope . Hope .. the truly deserving but still over rated word . Its taken people down into the darkest of lives . But more than that it has melted the hardest of ice bergs . 

So desire for me isn't really a relative word ... I wouldn't put it in the 'bad' emotions bracket ... because desiring is what keeps us alive ... it makes us try harder ... it makes our heart beat till we get the one we love ... or till we die trying .... most of all it makes us desperate . And only in desperation do we achieve the greatest , be the happiest and feel equanimity which makes us desire anything and everything around us in the first place . 

I loved the concept of the Mirror of Erised in Harry Potter . Such a beautiful concept ... explained which such natural flow .... because after all we see in any mirror what we desire to be . No magical mirror needed . 

 But we should remember what Dumledore said

"It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live ."

Cheerio:)

On the surprises...

The tale of 'Pixie Rabbit' .

Its no easy to write about people that you always remember ..and its not easier to be the person who can sit in someones heart for all the right reasons .. but believe it or not we have alot of such idiots among us . And they make our days better , make our smiles brighter ,  and make our occasions happier . 

One such type exists around me ..I'm sure you have one of those people too . 
Not to take any names .. the person I know is WILD . And its the bestest word I can come up with for her . Shes probably one person I have NEVER  seen sad . And that's a big feat considering the fact that we all are bunch of mopers around her . So this friend .. say her name is pixie rabbit  .. is one of the people who after I meet , always feel happy . Shes lame to the point of dying :p .... but that's her best thing.Shes not conscious about what she is ..and I don't think she should be . Rabbit is just an example of  what we should all be... sometimes I laugh at just how ridiculously happy she can make all us friends .
I wish we all  ,including me , could be more like the rabbit in each of our lives . Not be conscious of people staring at how loud we laugh ,or not giving a shit on how many problems we have . Trying super crazy stuff with our hair and succeeding in looking DA BOMB after every one of those adventures .
I mean at the end of it all it really does take a superhuman amount of courage to try new hairstyles and pull them off every single freakin' time :)
And even more strength to pull us lazy-dumb ass-literally red eyed rabbits out of our rabbit holes and bring us out into the green green grass with yummy orange carrots  , munching and pooping all over the garden without any worry .
So this is for my rabbit out there . And I hope you guys go and tell it to your rabbit too that thank you for making us smile and laugh and most importantly making enough of a difference to care and make us want to  . And enjoy a carrot with them .
Cheerio:)

Blizzard basics.

Spending my holidays in a wintery place. Colder than Karachi will ever be of course. Woke up today with my bed all warm and cosy. And as soon as I got out ... Well basically froze to death in just a few seconds. The floor was too cold to walk on and my head felt all benumbed and jammed all of a sudden.
But the good part was I went to the veranda the sun was shining and I sat there and felt snug. It felt very comforting . The feeling was a good lazy feeling . 
Everyone has their  preferences for favourite climate and season .. but its nice to be blessed with 4 different seasons . Its kind of cool that winters are totally opposite for the southern hemisphere folks . However still cant get used to thinking that beaches and blazing suns are a part of 'winters' in that corner of the world . But like everything else this season is also relative.
Its nice to have soft jumpers and warm Ugg boots to wear . Choose a really nice jacket for the season , have bonfires and sit in front of the heaters till you burn yourself :p
Some people have cold hands and fingers all year round .. but when it comes to winters they can be really really really ... well inconvenient would be a milder term . But why do we have warm hands and feet if they cant help the cold ones out ??;)
My most favourite part would be the go out into the cold looking like a teddy bear 'cause your so wrapped up and still as soon as the wind blows a little stronger , your  bones freeze and your teeth chatter again . I like when your super cold out in the open and as soon as you enter a mall your warm again .Its like the feeling that Harry has when he sips butter beer for the first time .

Not everyone is a tea or coffee fan ,and not all are booze fans either :p But whatever preferences .. winters have a certain comfort to them . Its the fact that you have a long but peacefully warm night ahead of you ..that you can do anything you want with your time  .. you can spend it doing just simply nothing ,being useless and good for nothing , being a huge waste of space is actually fun :)

Winters have loneliness written all over them . So it would do you wonders if you didn't mess up your life and kick people you love out of it .. and be miserable like Dr.House or some other stupid idiot that looks cool on TV, but spends his evenings in his lonely empty house eating out of a box !!
Enjoy the fact that you have a season to complain about how you cant feel your fingers anymore .
Cheerio :)

Obsessions .. the healthy stuff :)

Obsessions can be so satisfying , almost like chocolate . 

VAMPIRE DIARIES !! wow .. I mean I thought it would be a normal vampire boring show with the girl with a suicidal streak in her to be unitied with her lover for eternity .. but guess what ? It isn't . And thank gawd for that because I am completely sick to the point of vomiting from all that cheesy vampire love crap from twilight . 

But something even much better than the show itself is one particular character ... oh yes you guessed it right .. Damon Salvatore played by Ian Somerhalder . OH EM GEE is he hot or what .. I mean I thought I grew out of the celebrity crushing phase but I am SO in it .. and that too deeply .

I'm not going to start rambling about him and his killer looks or even his awesome personality that he portrays , 'cause some of the girls may not like him .. but like whatever man . You must be either blind or just too dead not to drool over him . 

In a way he isn't different from any other hero most of us girls like . The anti-hero but still hero type . Awesome sense of humour . Piercing eyes . Protecting his girl even though he's never gonna get her . Basically the works . I mean we all want those guys with dark pasts and impulsive to the point of killing themselves for us types . 

But sad part which I will obviously and purposely never fully accept is that those guys don't exist .. and if they do they are hell twisted and make your life hell too ... definitely not lovable .. huge jerks .

 Us girls want to be 'the ones' to cure our guy , bring him out of his troubled memories , and make him into this supernatural , 'almost' into Damon Salvatore or Dr. McDreamy or whoever you drool over when you turn the TV on , person . 

But since I never gave a shit about reality as long as I'm not messing up my life with denial and silly imaginations of vampires and bad ass hero types ... I'm happy to have a new obsession in the form of vampire diaries -in short- Damon Salvatore . 

So sometimes its good to forget the realities of life and stop giving others and yourselves silly reality checks and being a buzz kill ... just dream . Dream like hell baby .

 Dream of all those impossible things that you will never get .. or that don't even exist . Even obsess about them . 'Cause sometimes its good to be obsessive , to forget reality and that extra baggage , and to just screw your life and plunge into the depths of oblivion and obsession .. an obsession with something totally silly . 

So a little treat for the girls .. a list of the 100 sexiest men this year .. check it out and drool a little , dream a little , obsess a little . And for the guys :search it yourself honey !

Hottest 100 ... click this way please .

LMAO, ROFL , LOL , HA HA HA

Laughter is such a creepy emotion once you come to think of it . I mean why do we laugh ?? Why is our reaction to excitement or humour laughter ? I'm sure medically there must be loads of neuro crap related to it .. but emotionally ..??? don't know .. I don't think anyone does . 

It's kind of really astonishing if we come to think of the fact that extreme happiness is equal to laughter .. I mean how many times a day do I laugh ?? Probably 15-18 times .. and yet I have the nerve to come home and complain and whine about how a tiny little blip ruined my mood .. when I should be remembering that I was my happiest for 18 times today . And not just smile and smile happy .. actually beam like a disillusioned individual who doesn't know whats happening around them  :p

I read in an article that infant laugh , as in ha ha ha laugh around 300 times a day , whereas adults laugh , as in ha ha ha laugh, only 20 times on average !! WOW When did that happen . And most importantly WHY ? 

I think the main reason is that laughter symbolises acceptance in its truest form . Acceptance at work or school, or in a family or gathering . I don't see lonely people laughing .. or miserable people making people laugh . Be it the action itself or helping other do it , laughter in itself shows how much grateful we are to have some people in our life , to make us feel something strong enough that softens the edges of our mouth , to make our lips quiver and stretch into a smile and finally to flex our jawbones and pull up our cheeks and hear the never-noticed-but-always there sound of happy music . Of course let me point out that when you actually accomplish this please laugh along the lines of ha-ha-ha or ho-ho-ho or he-he-he .. DO NOT do ha-ho-ha-ho as it is sign of serious chemical disturbances inside your brain :p

So if you don't laugh much then honey you need friends and lame siblings who are even more annoying .. you need to flex those facial muscles and let us see the wonders of your moon beam .. most importantly you need to stop being a subconscious buzz kill for yourself and for others around you . Be nice ..'cause its nice to be nice .
