AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A CANDLE

I shine and shimmer like a star on a puce night

I gleam and glimmer like the pearly moon so bright

I stand elegantly in every festival and celebration

I dance and waltz to my heart's satisfaction

I beam at everyone who passes by me

I have no friend nor foe; in my own world I'm happy

I bring dawn to darkness and pulchritude everywhere

In every elated moment, my ecstasy I share

I represent knowledge, wit and wisdom

I bring warmth and hope to places lonesome

But when I melt, I dim and flicker

I'm no longer useful and replaced by another

(25th April'08)

The countdown has begun...

Of course, there are only a few hours left, to go back to school now. Anyway, I'm really happy today. Although I don't know why....

I'll try publishing my poem soon, and also my others back to when I was aged 11. Me and my friends made a magazine about 2 years ago. I contributed my poems and drawings then, but after we never saw it ever since. I'll, Inshallah, post a poem I wrote a few months ago as homework in English. And besides that, I love to do lots of other things. Love to dream, love to inspire, love to aspire, love dress designing and interior designing. Just love to imagine, because we have no bounds, we can aways weave tales whenever and wherever we want, make that perfect reflection of our reveries. And finally, when that right time comes, just convert dreams into reality, and get the pure ecstasy of it all!

Guess all that seems fantastic when you put it that way, that everything should be perfect. But thats how life is, and will be. It can't be perfect unless we make it.

Lets begin on that quest for satisfaction today, and smile at a brilliant tomorrow; Inshallah and Ameen!

ASSALAMALIKUM,
Oh, boy! I'm back in Jeddah! Alhumdulillah. But thats not all. School's up ahead, and its like, i didn't even touch my holiday homework. And now i'm wondering at bed at night, yes! Meeting with friends again, having the ever-delightful chitchats, entertaining others or vice-versa, yeah, thats when you think of the bright side of it all. But if you are that kind of guy or girl who gets freaked up or a pessimist, you can't help being annoyed at the thought,''Oh God! how on earth am I going to cope!??''
Well, thats natural. But if you have topped your form then, its a bit creepy, when the teachers kind of expect you to be that ''outstanding'' student. At least, thats my condition. About the time I left the airport, it was like my brain froze or something; when reality just sinked in and it gave a jelly-like feeling in your stomach. I didn't go out a lot this time, just kept spending time with family. But this year I got kind of real close to all my realtives, you know, grandparents, cousins....
And you just don't want to leave them, I tried to ignore the thought that I would be leaving them, but it kept popping just right back into my head. And when I realised that it may be a whole year before i meet them again (hope so, Inshallah!) it was almost like I was choking.
''what? go away from them? Are you kidding me?''
Anyway, guess change does change everything, and I'm ready to adapt.
And about Eid, this goes to family, friends and the rest of the world!
EID MUBARAK!
