Sunain next week phoppo ki Shakeela ki shadi hai, tou weekend pe shopping pe chalain. Honey,its Shakeela's wedding next week lets go for shopping.Every Pakistani household is confronted with the greatest problem during the wedding season;what to wear? So this conversation is followed by several visits to the designers and tailors and then after wasting hours (in fact days) in shopping, a dress is usually purchased.( It is ironic that thousands of rupees are squandered on a dress whose utility is just for a few hours). Then there comes the question of makeup, appointments are reserved, followed by 2-3 trips to the beauty salons as if the ladies are attending the coronation of the Queen of England. This makes them appear as Emelia Recolleti of the abominable bride of BBC Sherlock. Before visiting the beauty parlour After visiting the beauty parlour Shakeela The bride (referred to as Shakeela) comes all loaded in jeweller...

The prospect of engineering more specifically petroleum engineering are fading at an alarming rate.The safest thing an engineer can do is to opt for an MBA degree. In order to get an MBA degree, the first step is to secure an admission at a university.In Karachi, you have a number of choices on your platter, but there the factors of cost and recognition narrow down the options.

We are, But the pawns of God, And he being the chess master, Moves us from one block to another, We are, But the pawns of God, He being the king, Decides our fate, And, Puts us in a situation or another, When He wishes, He makes us soar like a hawk, And, Sometimes, Make us crawl through life, All a pawn can do, Follow the king’s command, For we are the pawns of God, Whatever we wish, Whatever we say, Only His will becomes the play, From life’s first to final act, We can just only react, To all that what happens to us, Though we may wish to take a course, He is the one, who brings his force, To ease our pain or make an increase, His will is supreme, Though we may say that it is extreme, There’s a purpose of every move, He puts people and He removes, To test the endurance of the pawn, To test us in happiness he brings dawn, And to try us in dark, He br...

Like a sun glowing through the day, Like a bird guiding the way, A soul that shows the life a way, A love that never goes away, Relic of God’s mercy on earth, Yet a man knows not her worth, Out in the world, facing defeat, He goes to her, in his retreat, Yet again he forsakes her, The horrors of world lead him to her, From the cradle to his ripe age, She guides him in every age, O the poet of the hymn, Pay heed before it’s time, Crying before the headstone, Regretting for having a heart of stone, Make peace with your guardian angel, Before there comes, end of her vigil. Muhammad Osama Yousuf 6 th May 2014

When alive,he longs for death, And in the arms of demise,a man envies life. In a company, he prays for solitude, And alone , he envies the gathering. In peace , he longs for war, And in no man's land , a general envies armistice. When content, he longs for gloom, And depressed , he envies the smile. When making the hay , he longs for rest, And while laying down, a man envies exertion. Performing an act, he longs to write one, And while composing, he envies the act. When away, he longs for home, And in his nest, he envies being far away. At the foothill, he longs for the peak, And at the paramount, he envies the foothill. In a library , he longs for noise, And in noise, he envies tranquillity. Being a saint, he longs to sin, And in the company of devils, he envies virtue. Being a toddler, he longs for youth, And in ripe age, he envies being a child. Getting affection, he tries to flee, And neglected, he envies attention. When advancing, he l...

Napoleon once said: History is the version of the past events that people have decided to agree upon. Adolf Hitler, the so called worst dictator of all times has also been victimized by the historians and chroniclers. It is true that he was an autocratic ruler, he was a war monger and his actions led to massive destruction not only in Europe but throughout the globe. He was not the only one to do so, his predecessors from the civilized world and from the great democracies have also committed same crimes but, as they were victors, no one blames them for their acts of maintaining the civilized order of the world. To this day the media including the print and the electronic media portray the Nazis as a band of psychopaths who first captured Europe and then unleashed their reign of terror, conducted the genocide of the European Jews known as the holocaust and in the end were defeated by the Allies. No one says that Nazi rivals committed all those crimes that were committed by them d...

 People have all sorts of expectations from others, they start to expect as soon as they establish some sort of relationship with them. It is in human nature that human beings cannot live in isolation and their happiness is dependent on other’s conduct. The two most common types of expectations are ; the post graduate expectations and the romantic expectations. Post graduate expectations As soon as he steps into an undergraduate program, it is expected that a person will easily find a job at its conclusion. His parents and his close associates believe that he will surely get a job, regardless of the prevailing slump in the job market. Throughout the course of his graduation he is treated with a very civilized manner. But after graduation if he fails to get a proper job then he has to listen to very degrading remarks and has to bear this psychological warfare with perseverance. It is very difficult to fight at the home front as a person expects it to be his safe frontier...
