blogging

I was reading an article (In Samsung's Switch Magazine Issue 2 by Marcus Craft) today about blogging, the upsides and downsides of blogging.
The author is very critical of us, bloggers, our experience as writers and the fact that we can write whatever crap we feel like writing without anybody to police us.

But then what's the point, blogging is about your freedom, to be able to say & write whatever you feel like, without being policed. People have a choice whether they'd like to read your crap or not.

Marcus Craft: If you told me what your blog was, I would follow it, if it's anything as good as your Blog Jam article I am sure it would be an interesting read!

People are wowed by social decisiveness when it's offered with compassion and warmth. How another person perceives you is d...

Day 1 of Fasting

Today was a good fasting day, I was way too busy at work to even feel the fast. It has become really cold again,we felt really cold Sehri time. It's been a long time since I can remember fasting in winter, the days are shorter and colder, which I don't mind at all, it's so much better than fasting in Summer. By the time I got home from work I had just enough time to read Asr, and then while making salaad Maghrib Azaan went, the day was over before I knew it! So far so good! The only thing that really worries me is the five assignments I have to complete before the 20 August. I really have to put a step on it!
