Well this is awkward. I had to read my earlier post from 8 months ago to see what happened last time. I even forgot how to navigate myself through the menu page, like the old man I am slowy becoming. I can understand that my absence must have been a tad bit frustrating and you are right to be enraged or depressed or you simply don’t give a crap. But I did not forget you lovely people…you are like familia…in a way…even though I was gone 8 months, hence, I am here now to share my never-ending adventure and struggles of my terrible life. Since last time a lot has happened and I don’t know where to start.
But first things first…Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year…for you folks…I know it has been a while, but still. Hope you all managed the transition to the new year well, I can’t even recall what I did. Probably sitting at home, playing computer games online like a dork.
I’ll attempt to speed up the story of the last 5 months in 2013. You may not remember, but there was a…gay person…who had moved in back then? My roommate “Iqbal” (Reminder: Although he is no desi guy, but his hairdo does qualify him for being a proper Iqbal) had told me stories yet he had never met him himself. That made me treat the new guy like a gay person, so that whenever the guy was around I would quietly and with my ninja-like moves sneak in and out of my room to avoid further exposure. I might get burned on sight. Once I even crawled on the ceiling like a spidermonkey. Sometimes he caught me in the hallway and then started talking. I would fiddle around on my phone and give him bland replies (you might remember that from my girly years), but over time I started listening. I started to suspect that…he might not be gay after all. He did nothing that reminds you of a homosexual (wow, am I not open minded right here ? Stereotyping much). He did have blond streaks which is like a stereotype thingy, but this guy was into mechanics and industry and all, which gay people clearly aren’t. They are only into fashion and politics. He said and did things that didn’t strike me as gay. It went on like this for 2-3 months since he was barely around and he had strange habits. He name-tagged all his stuff in the kitchen. Everything from milk to noodles-in-a-cup products. I eventually asked “Iqbal” if he had played a prank on me… which he did. I felt like such a fool thinking I fell for that and honestly it would have probably been a good story to develop on this blog. Imagine the possibilities…there could have been stories to tell for years. My blog is already in shambles! Oh, how I miss the exciting world of girldom, the threat of the female in it’s natural habitat. Anyhow, this guy moved out shortly because he couldn’t pay his rent and was never around anyway. As he moves out…another guy moves in. He was not gay. But he was never around either. We spoke a few times and he told me his girlfriend lives nearby so he stays with her 95% of the time.
I don’t know how these people can waste so much time and money moving in and out of places. At the same time, “Iqbal” found a new girlfriend, who decided to move in HERE with him in a DORM. There’s not a whole lot of space, and again I don’t understand why not get a place of their own if they want to play house?! She doesn’t work and he barely goes to class, most nights they are up until 3-4 am and playing games, watching movies and what not. It seems really dull and boring for a couple if you ask me. If I had a wife we would do proper things…Muslim things…I assume…We’d do halal dinners and watch halal programs and do halal…stuff…and do haram things at night. Since they spend most of their time in a small room, it’s not very varied! They do the same shit over which even makes me annoyed for some reason. They annoy me because they are so boring. I can be pessimistic sometimes, but in a realistic way I think (but I am probably wrong). I personally think they won’t last cuz Iqbal is such a dominant figure and gets loud and aggressive at times and she is careful like a mouse and drawn back. He’s 29 and she’s 21 and I know some people say age doesn’t matter, but in my opinion I think it does in some cases like this one. I know some just say that to say it without even thinking why\why not. This gets worse later and I will get back to that.
Besides all this, my absence is mostly caused by my studies and lack of will to blog. I spent a lot of time on here following other blogs. I had to direct that attention to other things during that period.I will gradually get back to this and actively start blogging again. I shall continue next time, we are around December now in this storyline. There hasn’t been a lot of development since I am still stuck where I am, but we shall see. I did, however, have a small vacation during my Christmas break to Qatar\Pakistan. That was my first visit after 7 years and gosh…things that happened. Unspeakable horrors. I will get back to that. Have a great weekend folks and hope you are all doing well! And if not…then do something about it.
