Song - Alicia Dixon ft Jay Sean - Every little part of me (Culture Shock Remix)
Okay well seeing as the whole sprained possible hairline fracture thing I've been living it up, ie doing sod all, so didn't feel it was worth writing an entry seeing as I'm not really doing much with my life except for being called disabled by my ever loving sister.
Big thank you to all those folks who sent me messages/calls, etc on facebook, they totally cheered my days up, especially when folk did it from from work, thank you guys, I know I love being anti-social, but takes me not being able to walk to truly appreciate the few I've made ^_^.
Anyhow my theme for today, went to a talk a little while back which had Lauren Booth, and thought of something I heard whilst she was speaking aout her conversion to Islam, and totally agreed with it, not just for helping us in avoiding the wrong within any specific faith but for just helping us us people in anything we set out to do. Anyhow what she said was teh best piece of advice she had been given was: "Avoid the listers" and everyone should know what this carries, as I certainity know people who have done this thoughout my whole entire life, be it for my faith, clothing, education, career, you name it you can recall the folk. The ever wise who offer countless words of what they entail to be wisdom, or in consequence can cause you to ignore other folk purely because of the fact that all they can do is make you feel not worthy or that you have to work harder to please them.
And I'm sure every person has either ignored someone important or had some blow aginst them due to these people, who don't stop to ever look at themselves or even wonder at what consequences they may have. Sure if I can't sing I'm glad my mum told me to stick to studying, I'm not gonna disillusion myself and I know that even if I could sing I have an alternative route if not a capable mindset to help me look after myself should I ever achieve fame and fortune via singing (I cannot sing, I'm okay with belting along with lyrics in the car or what not however I have no dreams to ever have considered this :D). However a lister may have tried to tell me that I'm doing it wrong (and when a 5 year old is doing it just to sing along to teh bollywood tune it's kinda annoying) and not offering any constructive criticism it not only feeds negativity into any bond they may share but can hinder people's self esteem, and it makes me angry when I see folk do this to others. Seeing as what right do we as humans have to tell someone that they don't have something, and feel extremely sad for knowing that I have most likely been at fault as well, what right did I have to tell someone that. Many what if scenarios can arise, from which I can only hope that the people affected forgive me, I learn from the mistakes and also I can help others from not doing the same thing. For it is only united that we can help one another in becoming better societies, not just focussed on tackling crime and other things, but in bettering ourselves as people, allowing people to reach the heights that people can achieve and thus carrying ourselves into a brighter future as humans where the weakest are protected and not bullied into submission.
Toodles for now folks, I'm off to read, the only thing that's really available to me, which is a good thing in a way!

Song - Breaking Benjamins - So Cold
Okay well more about Southall I got told, hmm, the place is like a trees with branches that are the little shops within shops, if that makes any snse and cos of the street merchants you smell the sweetcorn, mangoes, pakoras, samosas and various other delights and feel hungry and appreciate the desi aspect of your life, because it's not just an inherent part of my heritage but part of who I will be in the future also, be this for my own personal future or for friends, kids, etc.
I'm not really sure whether a moment-by-moment recollection was required, although you'd most likely find that boring.
Anyway I had fun today, I totally killed my bike, well the back tyre anyhow, the back got clipped by a motocyclist and so the wheel is now all bent, I have no idea what i'm gonna do with it, however that completely rules out trying for the race for life thing unless i go with crutches which would be hilarious although no upper body strength so might be a joy to watch, everything just bizarre.
It just making me not take for granted the stuff I usually do, like when I want a drink and I'm upstairs I usually just used to run for it, now I have to navigate my way downstairs and be tired by the time i get down (my lack of upper body strength being the key factor here) or relying on someone else, which I really hate to do, although at present that's what family is for so I guess I'm grateful for it more then ever, I now I could survive on my own, but having someone there just helps makes life just that little bit sweeter. Although it does help that I'm just wearing jeans everywhere or carrying a bag due to the crutches (as I might have some hairline fracture or something - doctor wasn't sure but no one else noticed it til he made a point of it, so I wasn't sure whether to worry or not)
But anyhow came home doing regular gentle exercises - ie just bending my knee (well trying) and raising it just to keep it mobile and not become stiff apparently, as there's gonna be quite some bruising and if it become stiff it won't help matters...
Anyhows that's my daily update I'm gonna catch up on some movie watching or something and I really should take those painkillers the pain is coming back. Take care of yourselves folks and never take anything for granted, we can always be in much worse situations and though we can only begin to imagine them we need to be aware and so know that we are truly blessed.

Song - Dr Zeus - Aag ka Duriya
Okay well occasionally I look at the blog and ponder at who actually reads it, and because the comments are rare (ie I've only ever got one) I have no idea whether it's just a stray traveller or someone who likes to ponder at my thoughts/laugh or whatever else I'm apparently great for, hmm
Oh well back to life, well I had a bit of a busy/lazy weekend, Saturday went to town to post something, then came back home to join the family trip to Southall (do not ask me why the place only appears to open after 12 o'clock, weird, anyhow got a nice new suit which is cool, and loved teh fact it had long sleeves (I don't know why it's so hard to find full sleeves nowadays!) and was black and cream, to which a friend told me it sounded like I was talking about ice cream. And then we realised we had another thing in common, anything can relate to food! I recall a couple of years back when me and family were mixing some cement and I was in charge of the mixer and throwing in the various parts of sand and cement I did look at it and thought milkshake I want some, although I had absolutely no food at the time, so it could be counted as a fail, I'm not sure.
Anywho back to Saturday, I saw mango, telephone card, kulfi, sweetcorn and various other road side stalls which I always find seems to signify Southall, these guys look like they don't even want to be there half the time, but without these uncles (although I did see one kid and one lady) what so signify Southall, as well Southall. Anyhow having got the suit and randomly looking at stalls, attempting to learn the art of haggling from my mother (I got absolutely no discount on some attar - but it was already a good price so who am I to complain!). I wonder if I could get my mum to audition for the Apprentice, anyone who knows her knows how awesome she is and she'd talk down to Alan Sugar should he even try to cuss her, I once remember asking her and she was like I'd walk out before it starts and just tell him he's fired!
Okay back to Saturday, anyhow went home, eating some ice cream in the car, was so woot woot, my sister had some kulfi - not a fan of it tbh. Got back home then got ready to go out to some charity dinner and dance, and the dj rocked, was very good at mixing it up and all that, the gujarati food was great and everything was vegeterian so totally ideal! Although I didn't dance even though I wanted to, seeing as it was a mixed gathering and all that :(. But met some family friends, who knew me as a tike, and apparently I was right trouble, and then all eth stories came back to mind, so I did my cheeky smile (what else could I do?)
Sunday consisted of well sleep and some dossing, a lil bit of housework, cooking (well trying but it completely mucked up!) oh well, edible for me so now I have my dinner for tonight, raw food, woot, woot?
Anyhows that's all for now folks and be sure to enjoy your day/night.
