The Funnies.
"Here's Jonny!"
And thus I return from a mystical jorney of truth and enlightment to bring you yet another episode of "lets rant with Umair." Well actually... I got nothing to rant about (gasp!) Well, yes I do have my regular negitory views that would make Satan blush, but I rather keep them to myself for the time being. What can I say, its been good lately. Plans for the big day go on smoothy, The missus and I have been quite kissy kissy lately (more so than usual :p) and all those extra hours thrown at work means I get a big portion of the winter off.
On a different note, Liren got me a new Digi-Cam for Eid, so I decided to put it to good use. I tell ya, its not easy taking Mirror Pics Lol!
You just gotta love Fuji's Styling; They never overerode. Simplicity is beautiful.
On yes another note, I firmly believe that if you can dish it, you should be able to take it as well (damn me and my sense of fairness.) Quite recently, a member from Ubisoft's Prince of Persia forum decided to make a spoof comic on the members of the community. Gotta say... Its hilarious stuff (and that was hard for me to say considering I usually get primal urges to rip Ib apart.)
So I end today's entry with the first three pages of Ib's little comic (He can't keep up with demand... The weakling.) Did he capture the essence of Umair as it was ment to be captured? You be the Judge. Part 1Part 2Part 3
Working my Ass off
Man, I haven't updated this place in a while. Well, blame the hyper sugar high toddler that is my life.
Been on call this entire week; Seems like the head manager needs some time off to go tend to a family emergency. Who am I to bitch at him about that?
Anyway, I am tired and I am semi-cranky and if Liren wasn't around, I would have had been drafted in a mental institution. The week was hell; Deadlines after deadlines and looking over like 3 project teams at once. *Rubs his temple.*
My break time usually became turned into an opportunity to bag some Zs. A little advice for all you would be Managers; If you do end up falling asleep during your break time, please make sure the Conference Cam. isn't rolling.
Not exactly flattering...
Anyway... DND for the entire weekend; I need my beauty sleep.
Summer's Lookin Goood.
Woohooo! Yeah! Gotta say things are looking quite positive for the summer. To top things off, I got my Uni Course mark sheet today and man! I did beyond my own expections. Me had a good Uni year Babaaay! Lol!So for summer... Plans... Well add in a trip down to UAE. Yeah, I have been hagling myself too much with work. Time to wisk me and my love away into the Arabian sunsets Lol! Its quite the drive, so I say the heck with; We are flyin there.When will we get back? Well me keeping that hush hush ;). *Hangs a big "Gone Vacationing" sign in front of his blog.*See ya biatches when ever Lol!
Fandom at its worst.
The mystery of human behavior; I doubt anyone of us can truly understand why we act the way we do.
Though people may know that their actions really don't make any sense and are self-destructive, they still hold on to them.
Such is the example of game character idol worshipping. Seriously bowing down to someting that nothing more than pixals and make belief is not only unhealthy; Its down right destructive upon your own ablility to precieve reality from fiction. I kinda find it tiring after a whole being compared to pixals. Game characters are cool, no doubt about that but I rather be me.
Signs that you have taken things a bit too far:
- Making fan sites on the character.
- Creating character appreciation threads on forums.
- Can't stop talking about the character in question on and on.
- Comparing the character to real life people.
To dwell upon something that isn't real is just plain... wierd. I am not saying having character preference in games is a bad thing; Our clan for instance got its iunspiration from the Lady Sniper "Sniper Wolf" from MGS ;). However constantly going on and on about just one character of a game is just not productive.
BTW: To ligthen the mood up:

Oh yeah... We are ment to be :p Lol!
5 women every guy's gotta date
So how do we celebrate with utter freedom from work for the next few months? With an article offcourse Lol! Well all I can say is me got the "All-in-one" package ;). 5 women every guy's gotta dateBy Jonathan SmallBefore settling down, these are the gals every man should date. Why? For the connection you two feel, of course, but also for the relationship lessons each one will teach you. With so many amazing women out there, how do you know which one is right for you? The honest truth is, you don’t really—that is, unless you get out there and date. “Men should experience dating many different types of women before they settle down,” says Gilda Carle, Ph.D., a New York-based relationship expert. “The more relationship skills you learn and the more experiences you have, the more prepared you’ll be when true love finally comes.” So, allow us to present five women you really should date before you say, “I do.” Of course, no one is saying you should go through life with a little checklist titled “Women to Date,” but spending time getting to know and appreciate these women can be a wonderful thing. Here, a look at who they are and why you should go out with them. Type #1: The Older WomanIf you haven’t tried dating up the age chain, you don’t know what you’ve been missing. Mature women have been places, seen things, and have a sophistication and wisdom that you, my young friend, can—and should—soak up like a sponge. “Older women know who they are and what they want,” explains Dr. Gilda. Spend time with one and you’ll gain a terrific perspective on life, and realize that being a desirable woman doesn’t mean being a woman younger than you are. Says Patrick Hayden of Seattle, WA, “I definitely recommend dating an older woman. I dated one when I was 19 and she was 30, and what she taught me carries over to this day.” While a knowledge of wine, travel and the human condition are usually par for the course, so is something else: a tutorial on how to please a woman in bed. “The older woman I dated was like a sex mentor to me. She taught me absolutely everything I know,” recalls Patrick. Type #2: The Guy’s GirlEvery guy needs to experience that rare breed of gal who looks and talks like a woman, but loves sports, beer, and action flicks—in short, who acts like a guy. Evan Silver is dating this type right now and couldn’t be happier about it: “She’s a hot woman who plays rugby and encourages me to hang out with my guy friends,” he says. The guy’s girl is often so similar to you that you forget to censor yourself around her—a good thing, according to Dr. Gilda, because it causes you to be more comfortable around women in general. “You’ll let your guard down more, just as you would around your guy friends,” she says. “You’ll learn that women can offer you friendship that you don’t have to reserve for your own gender.” We’re not saying you’ll be staging belching contests with all your future loves, but you will realize that there’s no reason to walk on eggshells around the person you’re dating. You can just be yourself—which is all women want anyway. Type #3: The Free SpiritThis girl always stops to smell the roses. Think Drew Barrymore, Goldie Hawn, Claire from Six Feet Under. She’s totally creative, spiritual, spontaneous—maybe a tad ditzy—and she relies more on instinct and inspiration than reason and good planning. Why is this good for you? Because let’s face it: Guys are goal-oriented. We like game plans and spreadsheets; road maps and instruction manuals. That’s why sometimes we need a free spirit to fly into our lives and shake us free of our rigid ways. “A woman like this can tap a man’s creativity in ways no one else has,” says Dr. Gilda. “She shows him that not everything has to be perfect or planned.” Michael Pagliughi of Ocean City, NJ, concurs. He considers himself a tad uptight—and says that his art-student girlfriend taught him to chill. “She took me to some underground art galleries, had me stay up to the wee hours even when I had to work the next day,” he recalls. The spontaneity she taught him has carried over into other relationships. “She really helped me discover a more romantic, creative side of myself,” he says. “Now I’m much more likely to meet a date somewhere unexpected or surprise her with flowers." Type #4: The Brainy ChickIn the dating game, looks often trump intelligence—guys go for hotties rather than girls who can stand their ground in a heated debate. This is really a shame, since not only can the sharp ones keep your mind from turning to putty, they can help you appreciate all facets of a woman and even handle those times in your life when you don’t know it all. “Men are so often intimidated by smart women—they have vulnerable egos and never want to feel as if any woman is showing them up,” says Dr. Gilda. Sure, dating a woman who can beat you at chess or argue circles around you about Middle East politics might be a bit of a blow to your ego at first, but ultimately, you’ll grow from it. Michael of Austin, TX, recalls his brainy ex-girlfriend this way: “She taught me how to debate with the best of them. I had to bring something to the table or she’d get bored. She challenged me in a way I wasn’t used to and that felt great.” Type #5: The SeductressEvery man fantasizes about dating a girl who has an, um, healthy libido and is extremely creative in bed. The good news: These girls actually exist—and if you date one, you’ll be a much better man for it. But it’s not for the reason you might think. Says Dr. Gilda, “Every guy needs to get this type of girl out of his system. Because he’ll quickly realize that sex alone cannot sustain a relationship.” Evan can relate; he dated a girl who lived and breathed sex. “It was cool at first,” he recalls. But soon he began to want something more. “There was nothing else there, no romance and not much conversation,” he says. “I realized the only connection we had was sexual.” Evan has since moved on from the seductress, but he learned a ton. Sure, hot sex still ranks high on his wish list, but now he also wants a girl he can also really relate to and bond with. And that’s a very valuable lesson.
