...a silver bullet caravan!!! they are awesome, i love the retroey-ness!! :) and they are beyond cool!!! a must have in a lifetime, they're way better than other caravans! .... the log dude on camp had one!! :) It has to look a little something like this... even though the smaller ones look cuter, the big ones are just more convenient... 

And some more....

The surroundings were so beautiful and peaceful... the walks were amazing minus wild rabbits and bugs... :)

Is it a flare, is it a meteor, is it a transformer, is it a plane...

Just a few pictures from camp... Incase your'e wondering about the title of this particular blog; it all has something to do with an orange glowy thing in the air that we saw while we were sitting around the fire :D...

It's called a Hoombadoomba...

:) We went camping this weekend, it was amazingly fun!! :D

We camped in a caravan, with a huge awning on the front... it had everything in it... hahah even Sky tv!! it was epic! i loved being there, so peaceful and we were blessed with really amazing weather... Im so pleased I got some colour- wahey for my tan. I smell... like fire cos we had a braai!- fun and yummy times!! i want to go back, the only hitch is that there is noooooo phone signal, so I couldn't phone/text/chat to anyone. The peace was great though!!... couldn't have asked for a better location... It's great to "rough" it once in a while and fun to experience different things!!! Pics to follow soon!!! :D

Saying it out loud...

I’m writing this, whilst I watch the snow drift to the ground, making acquaintances with what would seem its brothers, sisters and friends. It’s reminding me of you and me, our love for each other, our separation and our rekindle. Watching the snow brings me much joy, but never the amount of joy you bring to me, my heart and soul. I smile endlessly, for I am happy. It all seems so peaceful, and tranquil. The tranquillity of it bringing me to a subdued state of mind. I can now hear my heart beating for you, yearning, and the excitement trembling within me upon thinking of you. I now realise that my heart is nothing without you, empty, still. You complete me, after all these years I’m pretty certain that you are my fresh breath, one that instils happiness within me, a happiness that is evident through the pounding of my heart and stretch of my smile. This is the happiness within me, shining through making its mark and displaying what is true, that is my dear, my love for you! The love I have for you is guiding me towards commitment, a commitment that I am making to you for the rest of my life. I will always be here for you; I’ll be your pillar of strength as you have been for me. We are a huge island on this planet, surrounded by an ocean of love creating our world. I love you, and this is the way it will always be.

She's so Beautiful!

Relapse....

Eminem's new album is (going to be) the shizzle!!! *giggles*

It's sooooooo good, so glad he's back in the spotlight!, such a cutie! He made an appearance on "Friday night with Jonathon Ross", he was awesome! His performance was super too, loved the little stepping thing he had going on!! :) Now im singing... "When you walked through the door it was clear to me... You're the one they adore, who they came to see..."- damn straight!!! lol! ofcourse they came to see him, he's eminemslimmathers! GO BUY THE ALBUM!

now, it's really late and i've studies loads today, my eyes hurt from reading textbooks that are printed on crappy paper and have a font the size perfect for using a magnifying glass... *sigh* use proper paper!!! not only that my legs have been extremely sore today... one thing after the other, i miss having a social life and going out, i've been taking this studying thing way more serious than i have ever done before! I'm glad though, least i know when i reach my goals, its because i worked hard... I.A that will be the case...

A wise man once told me... LOL!

Negativity is the greatest destroyer of dreams and ambitions!

Thanks for the advice Ridhwaan!!

Study Buzz!!

I've been studying all day!! its been kinda boring but kinda beneficial too. I feel like im taking steps in the right direction. I just hope it all comes to me in the exam I.A!! :) Also did a timed essay... did it in 33 minutes which is good as statistically most marks are gained in the first 20 minutes of an exams... and having done it in 33 minutes will mean that I have sufficient time to check it over and make sure i havent made any mistakes!!! I've decided on the rest of the topics that i wish to do and will be revising them pretty soon!!! Im praying it all comes together in the end!! Fingers crossed! ;) x

Book Review =)

Just last week I had posted a note regarding wearing Hijab at work, in response to someone elses post... my post was... "This is something that I have had to face too, working and living in an environment where Muslims are looked down upon. Despite all this, there is a need and a sense of urgency where we are concerned in persevering with our appearances and faiths and demanding what we are entitled to. At the end of the day we are human and we have a right to work, and a right to earn. If you feel that your position in the workplace is being undermined because of your appearance, you must take a dignified stand and fight for what you want (equal opportunities, diversity etc...). In this day and age, Muslims are under immense scrutiny and we all need to make an effort to defend our beliefs. Sayed is right, it will eventually come from Allah!... ;) InshaAllah you will find what you are looking for."

 

All of which is true!!!  Anyone of any religion or faith should stand for their beliefs and defend what is entitled to them... Anyway, so someone had seen what I had written and encouraged me to read the book, Girls of Riyadh by Rajaa AlSanea ( Thanks alot for the recommendation :) ),  on the basis that the perception people have of Muslims is due to our own behaviour and the way we reflect our religion. I didn’t have to read the book the agree what she was saying but the book most certainty played a huge role in asserting what she said and what I agreed to. 

 

The book was written in an aim to expose the lives of four young Saudi women and through this display the way in which they lead their lives, the trials and tribulations they face under the nail of oppression, simply due to the lack of free will, and constant jurisprudence; left, right and centre, all of which is a reality. I am my no means criticising Islam but I am criticising the way in which the people of Saudi are governed and more so their inability to defend themselves from outside influence. Living in Saudi means that these four women are being forced to live a life of secrecy and live by traditions which force them to inhibit what I would describe as sin. I’m trying so hard not to be judgemental here, but those women certainly chose that life for themselves, they chose to drink, chose to give themselves to men, and chose to deceive their own hearts. They didn’t have to, as the society they live in failed them and allowed for it to happen. Saudi is a country that is supposedly at the heart of Islam, meant to be so pure yet is the hub of so much wrong. After having read that the book was banned in Saudi, it was clear to me that again, Muslims cannot hide their behaviour, and we most certainly catalyse the adverse publicity from the west. 

 

I support the author and her bravery for writing what she did, and for her courage to expose the truth behind the black abayah’s (Black long traditional Arab dress) and white thobe’s (White long traditional dress for men). Albeit, there is most definitely a strong attempt to uphold cultures and traditions. I pose a question to you... What’s the use? When the people living in Saudi are finding influence from outside to fuel their secret lives. There is something terribly wrong in this particular equation, and it needs to be resolved in order to find peace with the rest of the world. Rajaa AlSanea, has opened a platform for truth and honesty, and more so an opportunity for the hub of Islamic living to be at peace with itself in terms of finding and creating a balance with tradition and modernity.

I recommend this book to all!!!

I hope that in time, we are all able to realise our faults and from that learn that we can be better people, ultimately that will mean the world will be a better place.

Much Love x

Foolish Facebook!

Facebook are retards!!!! ughh!

WHY CHANGE SOMETHING IF IT WORKS PERFECTLY FINE?

They have removed the "Status Updates" and "Recently Updated" lists from the Friends section!!! which is stupid. We all know twitter is for status updates, but it was nice having use of all facilities in one place, how retarded is that?  Also, I like seeing which friend of mine has recently updated their profiles, but now I cant bloddy well see it because its gone!!!  I've sent them a complaint because I thought they should hear what a tits-up I think it is.
