Remedy for reducing bad effects of blogging


Previous month I wrote on bad effects of blogging. I have got a solution to it now. I read somewhere that eating berries can improve memory so I must say that all bloggers must include berries in their diet so that they don't start forgetting something from time to time like I do. Test conducted on old people who used to forget also showed improvement when they started eating berries regularly.

Bad effect of blogging

I have been blogging for a while and I have noticed some changes in myself. I easily loose my temper now and take conversations to their limits when someone argue with me or do something against me. I just start shouting. Another thing is that I forget things more often now. This irritates me a lot when someone ask me and I say ah I just forgot and can't even recall.
Will try to find a solution to these problems and post here. Till then if anyone of you (blogger) got a similar problem, just try not to loose your temper on someone stronger than you lolZ !

Happiness – the only life tonic on earth



Are you happy ? Buy , steal or just find any reason to be happy. Being happy is the best way of ensuring a healthy long life. Happiness can keep you healthy and also cure many present minor diseases and prevent those which may occur in future.
The problems in today’s life is that happy moments have been reduced to work hours leaving very less time for happiness. So how to be happy? its not so simple for all. Call it greed or human nature happiness tends to decrease itself, how? you remember your first bicycle ride ? How happy were you those days just by riding bicycle and now? hehe I think you got my point. Still not? remember how happy were you when that pretty girl talked to you for first time ? and now her small n big talks are no more a source of joy and sometimes you try to avoid it too and look for some better option.

Enough of examples, back to business.. So what’s the cure of it? Is it possible to keep our mind same as the time passes and be happy at those small small things again and again. Well sincerely speaking, it’s very tough. Pets are the only source which never goes down with time. One hard to believe truth, I must say that money can buy happiness. Like aj said in my previous post, shopping makes him feel good. So if you have lots of money to throe around, you can go out shopping and be happy. It’s more effective for ladies but men enjoy it too. Especially gadgets shops are mostly targeted palaces.
If you are lucky to have good friends and they have some time for you then an outing with friends give enough dose of happiness that will work for your wellness for at least a week. If you have something on which you are happy then sharing it with friends multiply that happiness, so don’t miss on that. What about TV ? is it a good source, well not to much extent, some shows like Mr. Bean, tom and Jerry do have the power to make you happy, so watch out for that. Programs which match your hobbies may also do some good.
Why happiness is that important for me? I can live my life as it is! Yes sure you can but a miserable one. Life will be hell for you with diseases waiting for you at every stage of life, not only this; your energy level will always be low and make you a loser in life. So try to get that feeling of happiness everyday and live a good life ! isn’t it easy ? NO, its not because as we grow old, we do get lots of reason to be happy (new bike, new gf ahem..) but the problem we also get some sorrows as we grow up which is unavoidable and making it hard for us to be happy all time (this is the reason we want to be a child again and wanted to get big sooner when we were kids). We need to keep that bad feeling at bay and open the doors for happiness. As I said money can buy happiness but there are some free alternatives too which work great. For e.g. appreciation, how nice you feel when someone appreciates your work or just when someone talks in favour of you showing that he’s with you. In this case we feel secure and happy. I have a logical proof to this. You know why we feel good drinking hot coffee inside our home when it’s raining outside? It’s because hot coffee cup in our hand and a roof on top of you is the proof that you are not wet while your eyes are seeing rain, giving you a sense of safety and well being.
So leaving you all here to think more on how to be happy.

When you are sad..


When you are sad people say they tend to eat more. Rubbish ! These people are either trying to act cute or simply want a reason to hide their obesity. Ask me.. unfortunately I had several sad days (ahem.. even years) in my life so I know that when a person is really sad, he does not want to even eat, forget about eating more, the sad person can live without eating and without feeling of hunger or weakness (he’s already weak of broken heart !). In extreme cases a sad person is a different state of mind and several parts of brain are switched off for good reason by brain itself. How? You cannot do any work, concentrate on any topic. Thinking part is the most blocked part. There is no scientific proof of this and I am writing this from my own personal experiences.
Enough ! how can I get over this king of sadness ? Take medicines? NO .. The best thing is to sleep as much as you can and before you go to sleep, leave a task to do when you wake up (this is important). When you wake up you will definitely feel better, if not then what about a hard, loud audio session of your favorite music track? Yes it works great. Make sure you have a good set of speakers and big subwoofer. Heavy bass is important part of treatment. No headphones please, it will simply won’t do any good. One more important thing to remember while choosing music track. Never listen to any new music release or upcoming remixes, also don’t repeat any track while listening. Why ? a new music track or repeated listening will let your brain memorize it and associate that music with bad days. So whenever you will hear that music, all bad feelings will come again. I have a proof to this. When I was purchasing my bike, a guy sitting next to me was constantly playing a new remix. Now whenever I listen to that again, picture of my bike and that showroom comes in my mind. In other cases of sadness if you are feeling low then without wearing boxing gloves, punch on sacks filled with sand. If you are really enjoying this and want to punch for hours then wearing boxing gloves is a must now.
A warning here. Mostly what people think that going out may help in mood uplift, yes it may do but do not drive any vehicle! you may do an accident. For bike lovers, don’t even look at your bike! Why ? no its not because you will do accident, its because being a biker myself I know we love our bikes and will never want to relate a single bad day with bike. Go for a walk, see a crowded place and try to find a good place from where you can stare these people. Spend few minutes looking at people busy in their daily life. It helps in mood uplift a lot. When you are out of house why not visit your best friend’s house and have a chat with him/her ? yeah good idea .. go ahead.
At last when sad, stay away from alcohol, cigarette and all bad things that do more harm than any good. If you have lots of money to waste, help a poor instead. It will give you inner contentment.

Those long agreement pages and their hidden meanings


I must really admin that I got a big shock today ( not of electricity but from an affiliate program. I signed up and it clearly said that it will pay me money for every free signup that is made from my referral link. Ok I was happy and included their ads in my one of the most popular site and within few days I reached $50 (which was enough to get paid) so I asked them to pay me now. WTH , now they added that 5% of those free members must have upgraded to paid membership. This 5% thingy is nowhere to be found in their Agreement page. So I am gonna sue them for this cheat and get my money anyhow. To add I would like to say that before one signing up for any affiliate program, must read agreement between the lines too and find out their “maybe” meanings in future to avoid any problem. And while I was writing this blog I found that a webmaster who joined by my referral link hasn’t been added to my account. I barked (well shouted) at them and they added him manually to my account. Now this is called a total local work @ssh01es !

The Messenger Manners


First of all, straight from my heart, I really don’t like chatting online. But I do since most of my friends are online and the cheapest way to communicate is chatting. Of course if not online, then it’s the phone which does the job, but chatting online (by typing) eh... I really don’t like it. You may be thinking then why not voice chat? First of all there is bandwidth problem, and then I will look like more a call center guy sitting in front of pc with headphone on my head.
Ok so sticking with my topic what I want to say here is that there are sometimes when someone new who I have never talked to pop up and start asking and asking. I think why don’t this guy just shut up and let me do my work peacefully? This must have happened to you too when someone starts bugging on messenger and no matter how much you tell him that you are buy and try to avoid him, he continues with same pace. At last I have to hide myself in messenger from everyone or I just log off when I get irritated too much. To these king of people who always bug me, I just want to say to them that I am not a global help desk that anyone can come and start querying about anything, which also by the way include my personal details like what I do, where I study etc etc.

The Girls Charm


You must have joined some sort of social networking sites like orkut / fropper / hi5 etc etc, there are so many but there is one this common in all, girls rules in these sites. Moment a girl signup, the inbox is flooded with invites and proposals. They are pampered well (or say irritated). So wats the reason behind this ? Well I found out and its simple. Look at the statistics and you will find there are more no. of boys than girls on these sites (no need to say some girls profile are fake). Boys who join these kinds of sites are 99% not for just normal friendship, since they already have lots of friends in real life, so they come for girls. Imagine if there were somewhat equal no. of boys and girls ratios on these sites, it will do wonders to the owner of the site (webmasters will understand my point ;) I request all the girls reading this to please do join your favorite social networking site, it will be a step to create a healthy online communities. Today the condition is like this, a boy who is trying hard for months on these sites to get attention, never get a “real” girls friends invite and a girl who does nothing, not even bother to sign in to her account get at least 10 friendship invite per minute !! At last the boy thinks bad about himself and loses confidence in himself. So girls act now ! Hit the register buttons and indulge in online activities. Its fun !

Who say’s you can trust me?


First let me explain you a bit how things happened. I had to register some domains so I called a person I know since many days who has been dealing with these things. His name is Faizan and he runs a computer center. My domains were registered within few hours but due to lack of knowledge he put my domains in his account instead of creating a new one. Now in his account there were many domains, one of his own, three of mine and about eight of some client. Now one day the client asked for the Cpanel login details. Mr. Faizan was smart enough to not to give it immediately and ask me beforehand that is there any risk? (I thank to him for this) he called me and I said that I’ll make myself a new account and move all my domains in my own account leaving the client so that you can safely give him the login details. He agreed. I started moving the domains to my account one by one and at last 9 domains were left, one of Mr. Faizan and rest were of a client. I called Mr. Faizan to ask that should I leave his domain in the account or move it too? He immediately said, “No No don’t leave it, move all our domains to your account and only leave the client domain’s in that old account.” Ok I started doing so but WTH; the domain was locked by reseller guy. I called the reseller who is also friend of Mr. Faizan to unlock it so that I can move it (I explained to him that Mr. Faizan has asked me to do so). First he agreed then said, “Umm ok but please first say to Mr. Faizan to call me or SMS me to unlock it, you know its critical matter!” he said with a bit cracking voice. I said ok ok no problem I’ll say him to call you and confirm it. Now here’s what I want to say, you don’t trust me? You thought I would steal a Rs.350 domain ? Ok you don’t but what on the earth will go wrong if that reseller would have said Ok I am unlocking it and just to confirm he would have called Mr. Faizan himself. These are the small things which matters a lot. When I first met this reseller (he came to my house for some work) he asked me to buy more domains and also refer others to buy from him. Being helpful I always referred and my friends also building trust with him. But know when he don’t trust me he has lost more than just a customer.

Call of a so called Net freak..


Tring ..Tring.. Hello whose that ? its me Waseem, My net is not working yaar..no link in my modem. This was the call I received last night at 12:30 AM. So what if your net is not working / no link in modem, why call me at late night ? I am not your ISP. He chatted for a while and I just kept thinking that he’s drunk or what. I am too an Internet freak and my work involves excessive use of broadband internet but if my net doesn’t work, I know what I have to do. Simply check the software first, like firewall software sometimes causes problem or PC just needs a reboot. Then I check modem and wires, If nothing works, I call the ISP. He would have sent me a SMS on my mobile but he called on landline phone which has a loud enough ring to wake everyone in my home. Its not that he was not aware of this, he knows everything as we are friends since long and he often visits my home. If by chance you get to read this (usually you don’t read) please don’t take me wrong, I have always helped you and continue to but next time please think before you ask and don’t forget to look at the clock.

Annual Flower Show at AMU


I wake up in the morning with stiff neck I was not able to sleep properly last night. Yesterday me and my friends went in an Annual Flower show (which is annual only by name and held every now and then). You will be surprised that what a computer geek is doing in a flower show ?, well I am interested in photography too, so always go there for some nice shots. What about my friends ? well me and my friends have a second reason to go there. And wats that ? Its Pretty Girls that are there which do give you a nice smile and we just love that ;) Its not only us, you will see more boys comming to this flower show and sadly none of them are interested in those flowers. Their eyes are just scanning the girls. The gate keeper at the entry gate smiles when he look these boys eager to enter the flower show, he knows the fact too. But what irritates me when my friends just don’t let me shoot peacefully. They are the least interested in my photography and then at the end of the day when they ask me for those lovely flower pics, grr.. first you don't let me shoot, then ask for pics (which are not tagged by Copyright of mine) hell.. I am not a fool buddy !

Damn.. he scratched it.

Here's I go with my first blog.. Say like, how to start ? umm let me tell you what was my mood when I started it, I was sad, really sad. Reason? A deep scratch on the tank of my new bike...ahh it hurts me. The one who did this cruelty to my bike was a kid. a poor kid so I just can't say a word, I just said to him, you shouldn’t have done this. What I learned that anyone can do a big harm to you anytime. We need to stay alert. Even a small innocent looking may give you a big hit.
