Just so that people know, this blog is created just so that I can brain storm. I will type my thoughts here. I know these thoughts sometimes will create confusion. These thoughts will sometimes make you realize whats going on. Please don't jump to conclusion because i will just type whatever comes to my mind without any analysis or with out any organization.
So please don't take offense and don't think that i have made the same conclusion as what my blog says because after analysis of my thoughts I always come to a different conclusion than what I initially think.

The plan gone wrong
Don't you just hate it when a plan goes wrong. Well my life was well planned and it just very recently went VERY WRONG (or Changed) in many different aspects. It made me realize how limited we humans are in control of our own lives. We think we make the call... but No we don't.
We need to stop and think and evaluate our life from time to time and keep a check on where we are heading. Its good to plan and to know where you are heading but remember things don't always work out the way you want them to work out. Every once in a while you get a curve ball from nature and before you know it your life is compeletely cahnged. You loose focus, you don't know what you are doing. You get into the unknown territory of just blankness. But still in that blankness there is something that you have faith in and thats what holds your hand and helps you pass through this but if you have no one you get lost. I am glad I have faith...

Power, Money, Fame
The three things that corrupt the heart the most and can take you away from God. The creator is the Most merciful and Most Gracious, He gives to whom ever he wishes and takes it away from whom ever he wishes. He is the most Just. I only pray that his mercy will overshadow his justice on the day of reckoning when all that exists will have to answer to him and give account of their life.
Power, money and fame can all be related to each other but not always. If you have fame it doesn't mean that you will have money as well or if you have money its not always true that you will have power. Before I go on keep in mind the power I am talking about is only within the human bounds, because we all know that no one except God holds true power. If anyone thinks they have power they are mistaken. We humans don't even decide our fate; how many times it happened to you that you planned to do something and it never happened? Or did you decide what family were you going to be born in? Or can you guarantee that you will be alive after you are done reading this?
That was a little thought on real power that we all need to realize. Now the power that some people think they have, its just an illusion. The money can't help them unless they spend it for the right cause. The fame is only a one minute thing. Then what's the big deal???
Why do people start acting weird when they get power, money or fame? I guess that I will have to wonder since I have none of them or do I? I was just elected to be the President of Ryerson Students' Union. People have been asking me what am I going to do with my new found power.
And that's why I am writing this blog, just to think about what is it that I have. I have been warned not to let it go to my head. But I don't have anything that can go to my head. The fame I already had, the power I already had, money I didn't. And what ever I had or have is given by Allah and can be taken away in the split of a second.
Now the question comes of it going to my head and how have I dealt with it in the past. I honestly don't know. I don't want to change or act differently but the question I ponder is that do I? Have I been acting all powerful and egoistic? I hope not.
I will have to stop here... because this is the third time this damn thing eat my post. i will continue once i am done cleaning my room

Saturday night hockey
It is 2:38 AM on Saturday night and I just got back from friends house. Today was a lazy day, I didn't accomplish much. I heard a great news. I was stressed about something and thank God that my fear is gone astray.
So in the evening a couple of my friends decided to meet up, I took my brothers along and we met at Apna Pizza in Mississauga. We had dinner Shakir paid for it. Then we went to Shakir's place and watched the dunk contest. Close to 11 PM my brothers left for home and the other friends also departed while me, Shakir and his brother Shoaib left for hockey in Brampton.
If you already don't know, I love sports. I can play almost any sport there is... but not good at any. I use to be above average at most sports at various times, depends on what sport I have been playing lately. So yea I use to play hockey and today after about a year I went back to play hockey. These guys are all very competitive they all play in leagues... I don't.
So when I started my first shift I fell bad and hurt my knees and elbow, but didn't let that stop me and scored a goal in that shift. My next shift I got hit on my shin by a hockey stick while trying to score... made a great play from behind the net and got an assist. That was all the injury I could handle and I had lost my breath, it felt like I was about to cough blood. There I realized how much I need to get back to the gym. Since I started working on my election campaign I didn't go to the gym. So yea I stopped and went to play Golf with Shakir.
Now I am not a big fan of golf but I don't mind it, last time I played golf was at a driving range last summer. After a few hits I got the hang of golf again. So yea there I made fun of Shakir because he likes golf and I say its a sissy sport. I told him next time when ever I get injured from hockey I will come and join him at the driving range.
So here I am... with a hurt shin and banged up knees. I love hockey. I am also waiting for a call...

The life goes on...
Yes the elections are done... I missed 1 quiz, 2 midterms, 3 labs, 1 term project and a WHOLE LOT of classes.
Thank God its Friday and the reading week has started. Only if I use this week wisely I will be able to catch up other wise I will crying at the time of exams. My past experience teaches me that I might have to cry. But it does not mean that I don't intend on changing that.
I have been getting calls from all over the place congratulating me for the election victory. The victory had nothing to do with me.
The victory was given by Allah, it is due to His power and mercy that I became the president. After Allah it was the people who supported me and actually did the work. I would love to name them but I know I will forget someone because there were just so many people who helped and lets not forget the people who spread the word as well as made duas and VOTED!
So yea thank you to EVERYONE.
