Vacations are a summer’s thing… we all hope, plan, or actually go around that time on vacations. Picking out the summer to beat the heat and taking a trip to a different area preferably a cooler location is the highlight of vacations. So this summer I planned a vacation too; actually I had been planning this for years, only this summer I executed the plan to the final. My sister or as I prefer to call her my partner in crime worked on this vacation for a good long time, months and months we had discussions, we picked out locations, we invited friends to join us, we dug internet for information, we spoke to people who’d taken vacations to the certain areas we’d wanted to go to. My idea of the vacations was the northern areas of Pakistan, the mountains, the snow, and the different people; in general I had a very generic picture in mind. However my sister who had been living up in the north for two years had more particular places in mind, she was more aware of names and she had pro...

I interview 15-20 people a day and I get hoards of idiots who are either there for their first interview or who have been interviewed so many times that they think following the interview codes are below their personality now. Here’s a list of Do’s and Don’ts for interviewees that they should try out to make a better first impression, and don’t get on my hate list as soon as they walk in chewing a gum! Dos: 1. Be confident – don’t walk into an office as if you’ve come to beg for a job, regardless of how needy you are, don’t cry about your problems in front of the interviewer and plead with them to hire you coz you are in a financial crises and really really need the job. 2. Make eye contact – look into the interviewers eye and answer his questions, (don’t stare – that would be too rude) but look with genuine interest. 3. Use hand movements – when talking use your hands, people who use their hands when talking feel more likeable than people who sit rigid answering like ...

Friends in childhood are full of innocence, they don’t judge you for the money you have, or your looks. When you are children there’s no competition, there’s no jealousy, there’s only friendship above everything materialistic thing. As these friends grow up the same unconditional friendships are divided by money, looks and interests, conflicts of personalities and opinions. As adults things such as religion; which were nonsensical things as children, become major issues. You choose your friends according your beliefs and according to your social status. As a child you never had issues being friends with a kid who wore old clothes or used second hand books at school, then why as an adult you refuse to eat together with a poor person? Aren’t we better of as children? Who are never judgmental? As adults we start judging people, and start calculating benefits from every relation. As children we’re allowed to love and be loved without conditions as adults we want the best...

Gol Gappay or Pani poori the different words for the same amazing street food that makes any person salivating at the mention of it. Umm the thought of a crispy round poori filled with chutney and chickpeas topped with spicy and sour pani; that you pop in your mouth and enjoy the feeling of being in heavens yum! I want to have another plate please. Now Pani poori or more commonly known in Karachi as gol gappy is one of the most easiest snack available. A few problems you may encounter with them are: 1. The hygiene (but that’s a problem with most street food) 2. The pani can actually upset your tummy very bad if you have it from an unrecognized place. 3. The size of the pooris can be huge in some places so people with smaller mouths will struggle to pop them in, and there’s no point of a poori exploding outside your mouth! 4. The pani can literally be that just pani; also not very inviting. Coz the pani of a poori’s got to be all spicy and tangy but if it’s just plain ...

I let you tell me you love me and tell me I’m pretty, I let me judge myself through your eyes. I blushed when you looked at me like no one else existed and I melted within your arms. My eyes sought no one except you when I dressed up because everything I did was for you. The kohl in my eyes belonged to you, the color of my cheeks was yours, and most importantly the smile I wore was because of you. Can you believe it when I say that every moment I was awake and  my heart was beating I could hear it say your name? I could think of you every moment of the day. I was so in love with you! It hurts me to know my place in your heart was so temporary, you could walk out of my life so easily. You were my world and you claimed I was yours, yet you turned your back on me and walked away. I was so used to seeing myself through your eyes that it took me a while to realize I am beautiful. I am a beautiful person inside unlike you. I don’t need your approval for it. I was and will ...

I love it when you smile at me, the world stops and you are the only one that exists I love it when you give me your undivided attention, I feel like I’m on top of the world I love it when you stubbornly put me to sleep, I feel very loved I love it when you hold my hand; I feel I’m holding the world in mine I love it when you laugh when I tickle you, I feel like there is no sadness in this world I love it when you listen to what I say, I feel very respected I love it when you care for me and don't say it, I feel very special I love it when you start your days with a kiss, I feel like my day starts then I love it when you say I love you, I believe in it more than anything I love it when you say you're all mine, I can't love you enough for that I love it when you call me ‘Love’; I feel an unexplained attachment to you I love it when you write me emails, I feel like I’m a part of your thoughts I love it when you share your thoughts, I feel like I’m a...
