October Births

Posted by Umema Siddiqi on Thursday, October 25, 2007 in ,
Till 2oo5, I used to think that babies are not born in October! Pretty weird thought, I know. But the reason for this was that all around the year, I would give cards and gifts to my cousins and friends on their birthdays, but in October, I would greet birthday to just one of my cousins, who's born on October 1st!

I used to find October a very strange month. First of all, it starts with an uncommon alphabet, O! Not many names start with "O"; unless people want to write Omar, Osama, Osman, and even Omema. Even, not many things/words start with "O". Atleast my vocabulary of "O" words is quite limited. And then, October is such a dry month of the year. The days are hot and the nights are cool (not cold), and most of all, no rains! Therefore, I don't like Octobers much.

When in 2005, I entered the university, I found that almost 5 people of my class had their birthdays in October, and to my horror, all those 5 are a little strange people. I mean they aren't that social. They show complacency in just smiling in situations where people like me laugh their heart out. Even my own niece was born on October 29th, 2005. Uptil now, she's energetic. And I pray she stays the same when she grows up :)

And remember my TOLET post? Dinky Mind's like that :P

That's all for today. And sorry to all those born in October. :)

Cheerio folks =)

P.S.: The above writing is purely my view of October. You may contradict :)

Clinton Addressing to students

Posted by Umema Siddiqi on Tuesday, October 23, 2007 in
Bill Clinton was visiting an elementary school one day to promote one of his education bills. He was talking to a classroom of kids and asked them if they knew what a tragedy is. One little boy said, "A tragedy would be if a school bus full of kids ran off a road and everybody died”. Mr. Clinton responded, "No, that would be an accident”. Shocked, the class was silent for a moment when a bright young girl stood up and said, "A tragedy would be if all the teachers in the world quit teaching”. Clinton thought for a moment and then said, "No, that would be a great loss”. Finally another boy stood up and said, "A tragedy would be if the President was in an airplane and it crashed and he died”. Clinton smiled and said, "Good job, now that would be a tragedy. Can you explain to the class why that would be a tragedy?" The little boy responded by saying, "Well, it probably wouldn't be an accident and it certainly wouldn't be a great loss”.

My math stinks!!!

Posted by Umema Siddiqi on Wednesday, October 10, 2007 in , ,
Today in API's class (Analysis of Pakistani Industry), our Sir said that there is a decline of 2.6% from 8.10 to 5.5, and for two minutes I kept thinking how can he make such a mistake. Because in my view 8.10 minus 5.5 is equal to 3.5 and not 2.6!!!

I totally forgot that a zero after decimal has no value (or is of no value or... comprehend it yourself. hehe). That reminds me of my post 5+5=25. Now I should practise writing
8.10 - 5.5 = 2.6 and even 8.1000 - 5.50 = 2.6

Keeep praying :(

Star-Studded Teeth!!!!

Posted by Umema Siddiqi on Tuesday, September 25, 2007 in , ,
Well, yes, I got braces. My treatment started almost 20 days ago and now I'm having the worst pain in my teeth. Aaaarrrrgggghhhh!!!!

I am one of those kids who love to wear black-framed specs and braces and who want to break a thermometer just to see what Mercury is and who like to hop instead of walk. In short, I'm one of those wierdest kids.

A few days ago, I was really excited when my dentist uncle told me that I would be getting braces, but for a short time. But all my excitement faded when the doc pushed the blue separators between my molars to make space so that metal bands could be fixed easily afterwards. That day I could not close my mouth. Then my Mom suggested that I should take the pain killers that doc gave (Dinky Mind never remembers anything). So the pain reduced to a considerable degree. Last Saturday I got my metal bands fixed, and again I was unable to close my mouth. What the heck, I never knew it would take up all my patience. Anyway, then came Monday. Means yesterday. And the dentist uncle gave my smile a new look.

The Star-Studded Smile :**)


Hehe. Yesterday, I practised a lot to speak properly. Ofcourse you can't when you know there's a huge metal thing fixed on your teeth. And now, I can speak properly, but I can't smile properly. And yes, I can't even close my mouth properly.

Some of my friends exclaim, Oh you've got braces!!! Others say that I look "cute" and "adorable" (see me again :P) and people like Ritz and Jaj are still waiting to know how do I look ;)

Cheerio folks

P.S.: Pray for mee

Trip to Isloo

Posted by Umema Siddiqi on Tuesday, July 10, 2007 in ,
Went to Isloo by road on 30th June and reached on 1st July. Had loads and loads of fun, met new people, visited new places, lost games ;) but it was real fun. Went to Murree on 4th July and was home on 6th July. I don't have pictures to share. Soon InshAllah I shall upload them.

Anyways, right now I want all my readers to join their hands together - not for claps
- but for prayers. Our results were expected to be announced on 9th July. 9th gone. Even 10th is half gone, but no signs of results. Such things boil my blood up. I wasn't worried until I saw everybody worried. I mean, I am somewhat sure as to what I'd get, but when Jaj intermittently asks me what grade would she get in Law and Research, I also start wondering what type of paper have I done. I am one of those who try to attempt every question of the paper, but fail!!!

Therefore, I request you all to pray for me and my grades cuz now I AM really worried.

Adios amigos.

Argh!!!!

Posted by Umema Siddiqi on Tuesday, June 05, 2007 in
I hate when I am asked to do work at the last moment. I hate making reports and assignments 2 weeks before exams. What time will be left for me to study then??? Such things tick me off so badly, I feel like getting out and screaming out loud, "Hell, STOP THIS!!!"

First of all, I've got a Dinky Mind, and then when teachers bombard me with assignments and reports and presentations, I feel like buried under the K2 of all the unnecessary work that had to happen at the worst time.

A big ARGGGHHHHHH for all this!!!

Cheerio folks =)

WISE SAYING: One must smile no matter what. It reduces your worries (By ME) :p
