It’s been quite some time when it was a visual upgrade for this blog, and it’s quite that time again that it gets a new coat of paint. I believe that even though everyone’s getting newer and faster internet connection, this blogs should load faster and smoother than it does now, so I’ve decided that when the new version launches these things are taken care of.

A few things that were also on my mind if that there should be no sidebar, and the main focus should be the blog, though technically there will be a sidebar, but visually you might not consider it one, which is quite my objective.

I’ve also taken care that things do not cut of like they mostly do when you open a single blog post, specially if there are no comments. I m also going to focus on one single blog post on the main page, so that only the most recent comes to you first, and if you choose you can browse for older written stuff as and when you wish for it.

I’ve pretty much completed the design and it’s like a 100% change from what it looks like right now.

Let’s hope it goes around well, and works on all browsers, Amen.

Hello folks. How you all been doing.. I know no ones gonna answer that in the comments but anyhow.. This last week end didn’t go so well for me, for a couple of reasons. Some of them are what I will not write about here, but the rest.. oh well, read on.

I was already have some diaherrea problems, and since I m on night shifts for my job , I cam home in the morning on Friday, my office is  like an hour and a half away from my home, so when I was home, I had to ruch to the toilet, picture this a dark toilet and no electricity, so obviously I had to lit the candle (bad idea), which was super small already (being the lazy ass I didn’t get a bigger one :P), so any how I did what I had to do in the toilet, spent like 15-20 minutes, and then came out, there still was no electricity and I wasn’t sleepy and I had to go for Friday prayers too, so I just popped up my ipod and watched movies, like 10 minutes later, I could smell plastic burning.. Holy F***, I ran upstairs and open the toilet door only to find black smoke, yes the tanka nd comode had been gone, not really the comode but the seating the tissues, and the rest of the stuff near the sitting place Yes ! Oh crap, what a way to start the week end. I had to put it out and stuff, I was all black and my room and the whole of upstairs was a mess in no time.. Took me a while to put out the fire and restroe oxygen :S

Anyhow, after that, the Friday prayers and sleep. Next day I had to head for Asim’s place for some stuff, and boy I almost had a fight with his bro’s friend, on some work issues, mofo wants work, and won’t pay, thats the crappy part, I did the work and got paid super less. Never am I going to work for him any more. Yes I ended a business relationship, a rather bitter one. He doesn’t really get the design business, and no barely anything about the design industry of the use of a creative mind.

And I still had diaherrea throughout the week end. crap crap crap. Monday was better.

Found this image to be awesome.

It’s been around 2 months or more since I leaft Creative Chaos, yet my connection, friendship and love with these folks is still the same. The reason is the kind of environment we had and a strong communication that we had developed among us.

Any how, the reason I m writing this post is plain simple, I had another day with the people at Creative Chaos and it was awesome. I got to see my desk again, whihc has now been taken over by Sundus, who proudly declares she stole my desk, yeah well considering all my stuff is still in her possession, she might have haha !

I was also taken back by the fact that most of the things I left back at Creative Chaos, are still there, and mostly the way there, which is not only a way of expressing the care that others have towards one another.

Any how, I was coming back from work, I have night shifts now btw (got to work San Fransisco hours now), which was around 12 in the afternoon, and I got a call from Omair, asking if I was free for lunch, I was tired but as soon as I came to know it’s a lunch with my former collegues and friends at Creative Chaos, I agreed right away, and Omair picked me up from near by.

We headed for the office, and had some time there, and I got to meet the two new employees at CC, in the design department. They’re pretty nice people, I hope they enjoy at CC as much as they can along with doing their work.

The rest is all cool till now..

I got to grab some sleep, so I got to head home.

It’s been a couple of days since I had landed in Karachi on the 1st November, and since then I’ve become pretty busy here, yes I also found a better job, which is more relevent to my experience as a web designer.

Not only that, but i’ve also been offered alot of jobs since I came back, and most of them were of great value, but I had to point myself to one direction, so I opted joining Xuqa. It’s an online gaming company, which means I’ll also be learning a good deal of flash, so I can be a part of the game development team, which is good. I m hoping to master the Actionscript area mostly.

Other than that, I went to visit my old office Creative Chaos, and had some good time spent there, met the old folks, maaaaan I miss that place.

Anyways, I was late yesterday at my work place, and I then I saw one of my former collegue online, who was also at her work place, fortunately she lives near my house, so I asked her if she could drop me near my place, to which she agreed, I’d like to thank her for that.. many many thanks. A million thanks.

Oh I’d also like to tell the world that my Dubai trip was good, awesome with the people at the office, and my relatives, but otherwise Dubai is not a place to live, atleast for a guy like me, I m not a fan of too much luxury and honestly Dubai is a place for tourists..

Any how, I’d like to thank these people from Illusio: Mr. Ronaq, Shuja, Mansoor, Babar, Shahzeb, Saahir, Riaz (boy oh boy), Murtaza, Naeem, Murtaza, Aurangzeb, Sajid. Thank you so much.

Oh and I’ve been talking to lady ‘M’ recently like 10 minutes for two-three days already.

The rest all seems cool for now, I hope to have a good time at Xuqa. Got to hit the sack now.
