Lately the days have been really kind to me, and so have the people around me. I haven’t written about quite some goodness in my life of late.

Some time back, we went out and watched Transformers II, oh yes a movie lot of people are still waiting to see, but boy it’s an amazing movie, I m planning to go and watch it again soon.

Last weekend I was out with friends and decided to hit the Escape theme park, what we experienced there was plain awesomeness, though we know there was lots missing there and that a lot of rides were for kids, but then again we are kids at some level! so hell yeah we enjoyed that alot, for those who are going to ask for pictures please know that we were having so much fun we couldn’t snap pictures

Anyways, and now we’re planning more goodness for the coming weekend. Ice Age 3 in a 3d cinema is in the agenda

Oh and btw, I kinda lost a 100 SGD :S

This last week plus the week end has been the best since I came to Singapore, no kidding. Why you may ask..

The deviantArt Meet up

I attended the kick ass deviantart meet up organized by $spyed & $heidi from deviantart. These people are on a world tour, so they are going to be seen in a dozen of places. I met some awesome people there, some of whom have the best art skills I have ever seen, these people know what they are doing and are freakin good at it.

If you’d like to see the pictures, you’ll have to logon to facebook, here’s the link to the album.

The roaming around

Me and Saad had decided that we’ll go out and check out Singapore since we hadn’t really gone far from office that much and hadn’t really seen Singapore even though we have been here for quite a number of days, so this week end, the plan was in place, we left home on Saturday at around 3pm-ish and had the best time of our lives.. found some bachi’s who were super hot.. Man it was awesome I tell ya So yeah we took some time off and enjoyed the week end, we later went for pool table.. that was fun.

Picture, here ya go and here you got too.. Again these are on facebook.

Swatch

I got my hands on a swatch and a swatch on my hand. yo yo yo.. loving it ! I bought this.

Sentosa

Me, Pete, Saad and Balach went to Sentosa Island today, the experience wasn’t as we expected, why ? since we went freakin late, thanks to the f**ked up monopoly session last night.. I m not playing that game again, at least with the folks here.

But I think it was ok, at least compared to sitting at home, it was awesome !

Pictures, thought you’d never ask.. here.

I had planned this like before Eid (with my offline friends) that we’d do a Barbeque after Eid, and that finally happened last night (Saturday night).

I had to do some preparation before hand, getting the sound system ready, the lightning and all that stuff, and obviously make the sitting arrangements to hold some 6 butts on the ground, so matteresses were pulled out of the closets.

The bbq started off at around 9 which I think is too soon to start a bbq, it should start at something around 11, so people could live and enjoy through the night, but hell 6 boys together cannot get out alive without enjoying.

We had Asim, Fahad, Kamran, Hassan, Najam and me for the bbq. Asim grabbed his Sheesha (huqa) while coming, Fahad had his Guitar, and Kamran and Asim together grabbed a few movies.

There’s nothing much too tell about the whole cooking part, except that we wet fahad ass (with some super cold water) while he was on the grill, and that I tried playing a little guitar and I sucked big time, the sound system sounded better with some good msuic.

We ate food and jumped into my room, where we had moved the mattresses after eating so we could watch the movies. Kamran wanted to make us watch a horror movie which he though would creep us out, so we put on the one which he got, it was a french movie without any subtitles ‘Record’. If you watch it without any random commentry you’d enjoy the horror part of it, but we laughed all night on it, since we had everyone commenting and redubbing what was being said. Hassan being the lead on this made the whole movie sound super funny.

We then had tea and later icecreams during the movie and also watched ‘Dostana’ again, yeah I’ve watched it before too. We had some good pathan nasta, and around 9 we said our lovely dostana good byes.

That was about it, just wanted to write it to remember the good times

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.

I ‘ve been trying to write a blog post since 3 days, but you can’t do that when you’re occupied with lots of work plus you’re tired and sleepy.

So any how, I just found time to write about things that are going around in my life (other than constant electric breakdowns).

I had been working on a start up company’s website lately (TimeSvr), and was at their office the whole yesterday, since there were things that needed to be completed and the best way was to interact with their team directly, they had offered me to come work at their place, since they know about the electric conditions of the city, but I had turned down their offer a couple of times, before giving up and finally going to their office, honestly and no buttering, I really enjoyed it there, not really the way I enjoyed at my last job, but it was fun, atleast they did not have any electric problem, even if it did happen their were UPS and standby generator, which reminds me I have to call the guy who repairs the generator, because mine isn’t functioning !

So what I was saying is that they have a brilliant team, not only is the management good, they have strong, and confident Virtual Assistants (Aides) too. Getting to know these people and helping them get the company a good online presence was a pretty good experience, not only that, I also got to know some tiny bits about Ruby on Rails, and I have been tempted to learn than too (desheikh thanks for that !). I’ve started to look for resources now.

I’d like to thank their staff for such a nice time, specially Osama Sehgol, Zulfiqar Ali Sheikh, Farheen Iqbal, Zaki Mohamed and Angel Bernadine.

Thanks so much guys.

I had promised uzey a couple of days back that we’d do some get together becaseu we hadn’t in like ages, so obviosuly the weekend would be a good time for an iftaari get together, so we decided we’d go out to eat soem where on Sunday, that was yesterday, and so we did.

We had initially decided to go to Lasania, but as we stepped inside, it looked like a way to sophisticated place for too decent people, and for a bunch of jumping young people, that wouldn’t be the right place, so we moved to Pizza Hut which was near by and oh boy, it was hell of a noisy place, something we were looking forward for.  We got in start snapping each other for no reason at all, and people were actually looking at us with super odd looks and it was kind of funny, no kidding. What also made that so exciting was that we got to figure out a guy who half butt crack was visible for the audience and obvisouly we being the crazy folks, Asim decided to embarass the guy, and then his friends made a hell of a hallloooga out of him… Which was fun, although we did apologize later, which wans’t really needed.

Any how, it was one fun event for sure.

Update: Pictures are up in a facebook album.

It’s been a very busy day, though all the crapiness is going away fro the time being, to return later some time.

Any how, my blog is up and running now, which is good, thanks to the good folks at ServerSea Hosting. Now I can rant and bitch about alot fo things

The last post I did which had lots of logos in it, has kind of caught up as a trend, which is awesome, everyone should do it. It’s fun now, come on… !

Oh boy, should I be saying this, well yeah I should, alot of work has gone in Teabreak, with collaborative efforts from Asim, Zair, me amd Ammar, and we’re hoping that this does create some big waves, this is not yet complete, but thats what we’re hoping

On the other hand,  office has taken over my life for some time, and I m trying to break it out, I also have to be at Iqra University this Saturday to meet Uzma, let’s hope for some good there too and we might have a bbq this Saturday too

It’s not really chaos, it was my first day at Creative Chaos today I am so happy, so very happy. I definitely now know the reason, why H-N doesn’t want to leave this place, and he’s right, this place is an awesome place to work.

For one thing, they have growth, and not only do they grow as a company, they do so as every single individual too ! I figured that in one day, since it’s the people at the organization that actually make it the organization it is !

Any how, I m loving this place and the people there are great, I had a great time there today, and even though I m blogging from home right now, uncle H-N is still at work…  and he’s gonna come late tomorrow !

Here’s a little something he wrote on his blog:

have decided to be serious with Creative Chaos, I am sure I cant find a better place then creative chaos, and shahzad is also here now, i hope he is having fun here =P. best of luck boi!

Thanks man !

I m gonna buzz off now ! and yeah I m missing some special person right now, and the name starts with an ‘M’ Love you !
