A special way to say...you care :)

The post is dedicated to a special friend.

There are so many ways to express something as simple as 'I care for you'. Few days back a friend sent a simple line to me on chat and it meant a lot. I feel glad to have a friend like him, some one who genuinely cares.

A: Smile coz ur worth it... no damn fool should be able to take away ur smile :)

Thanks for being my friend A. :)

Labels or Love

Love's like a runway but which one do I love more?
No emotional baggage just big bags filled with Dior
Love's like a runway so whats all the fussing for?
Lets stop chasing those boys and shop some more ;)

Kissing by Bliss

Heard this song in the movie Sex and the city. Nice song.

The red light of the sun,
slowly descending.
The sky is all I see,
it's never ending.

We could fly,
you and I.
On a cloud,
kissing, kissing.

The wind plays with the leaves,
the weather turns colder.
But as long as we believe,
love doesn't get older.

We could fly,
you and I.
On a cloud,
kissing, kissing.

On a journey of the heart,
there's so much to see.
And when the sky is dark,
you'll be right here,
right here with me.

Right here with me.
Kissing.

(Kissing, kissing)
(A journey of the heart)

Mission Istanbul

No no...I am not going to write a movie review here. This is about my trip to the beautiful place Istanbul in Turkey. Till some time back(this may sound a little funny) I didn't know where Istanbul was situated. I thought it was yet another place in some part of Pakistan or Afghanistan.

For those like me - Istanbul is a strategically situated city at the west most side of Turkey. Its the only metropolis in the world that connects two continents that is Europe and Asia. The place is awesomely nice. I would suggest everyone to visit it once in their lifetime. For more about the place visit Istanbul

P.S. - I will be putting photographs taken by me in separate posts. :)

2nd Dec - UAE National Day

The National Day of UAE is celebrated on 2nd Dec every year. The United Arab Emirates is a federation of 7 emirates, namely, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Ras Al Khaimah, Umm Al Quwain, Sharjah, Fujairah and Ajman. It was formed in the year 1971 under the leadership of Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan.

Yesterday was 2nd Dec and yet another year of successful relations between all the emirates. This was my 1st time that I saw such a celebration. The roads and buildings were decorated. The whole city looked lit up. People had decorated their cars displaying their love and patriotism for the country. There were water sports competition held, the chopper was flying through out the day with the national flag of the country(as in the picture above), there was a non stop 45 mins fireworks show at night which UAE claims to be one of world's largest fireworks.

It was good to see how the emiratis (people of UAE) respect their country, their leader. I had never seen so much crowd in Abu Dhabi before. The roads were jam packed with decorated cars. The parks and gardens were full with people enjoying the barbecues. It felt more like Diwali to me unlike the actual Diwali Day. ;) All in all an evening spent in a good way. :)
