slm :)

At this moment in time there are lots of anonymous guests and I'm the only signed in current user.

So why is there quiet before a storm?
silence before anger errupts like volcanic lava,
why is there soo much talk followed by periods of silence?
why does my motivation fluctuate,
who is better the one who knows or the one who knows not?
why are men from mars and women from venus? LOL

Why don't I make sense?


LOL

just a typical uni student in need of motivation to carry on for what I set out to achieve 2 years ago.

you can answer my questions if u like.  I would be interested in your responses.

wlm

Zara

My name is Zara
I'm a girl not a shoe
I go to a uni
Its a bit like a zoo
I was working too hard to be able to stop
Then i done a silly dance
at the local bus stop oh yeah!

Well Zara i cannot really answer your questions, as i dont understand them, but how can you be running low on motivation for Uni? It only started on Monday! One day? Is that all it took?

Dont dispair sis, just another 9 months to go!

I love giving good news ;)

Man that poem is so corny Bro mujahid, where did you learn it ? From your little sister or bro at kindergarden ?

So why is there quiet before a storm?

Becuase very soon the world will erupt and by ramzan we may have a nuclear winter, oh well at least will all die fasting.

why is there soo much talk followed by periods of silence
Because silence is golden and speech is silver

who is better the one who knows or the one who knows not

The one who knows everything is Allah, Allah is perfect.
Whereas the evidence is not presented to the Taliban so they are seen as not better than America. But then America should do one better and save lives in this war by presenting the evidence to the Taliban.

why does my motivation fluctuate ?

Because now you see that being a Zoo keeper and studying for three years is quite hard. ;)

why are men from mars and women from venus?

Becuase men are better and more understanding than women.

Why don't I make sense?

Becuase you are from venus.

*So why is there quiet before a storm?

Because everyone is busy searching their handbag to check they packed their umbrellas.

* silence before anger errupts like volcanic lava,

Because you're standing next to your mum/dad and you did something REALLY naughty like not passing your degree because you spent too much time posting bizzare, threads to message boards. :)

* why is there soo much talk followed by periods of silence?

Ah my mate does that. She can talk non stop for 20 minutes but then keeps silent for a period to catch up on the 20 minutes of breathing she missed.

* why does my motivation fluctuate,

Because you sometimes forget that after finishing your degree you'll get a good job which pays for your sports car, which allows your armani hijab to flow through the wind while driving with the roof down.

* who is better the one who knows or the one who knows not?

Depends what information there is to know.

* why are men from mars and women from venus?

I'm taking it Venus is the better planet here right?

* Why don't I make sense?

Pass.

Quiet before a storm ? Heck I must be living at the wrong place. Here the thunder rolls like nobody's business. I mean they not only roll, the rock too. (yeah yeah I know this is cheesy)

[quote]silence before anger errupts like volcanic lava,[/quote]
Because apoplexy is always a rather quiet affliction. I mean usually if the anger is of volcanic proportions than the person that will utter the tirade of rage will suffer moments of apoplexy first heh heh

[quote]why is there soo much talk followed by periods of silence?[/quote]
Uhhhh I think its called embarassing silence. You know when one has talked and inserted one's foot in one's mouth many times ?

The one who knows he does not know is better.

thats a nice thought - gaining martyrdom during ramadan.

So am I Zara the Zoo keeper??? LOL

Men are better? No, they aren't, they don't understand anything.  Thats why women spend soo much time repeating themselves

check out this link:

However Venusians and Martians have a fair share of good qualities between them, although they need to be at peace with each other to get the best of both planets.  They compliment each other if they work in harmony. :)

I don't make sense because the Martians are not very well versed in the Venusian lingo... ;)

Right you asked for this ;)

Sometimes i come here to sit and think
Sometimes i wash my hands but they always seem to shrink
At times i come here to write on walls
And at times i come here to play with me soccer balls :)

"I take it that you are also at uni?"

No, i finished last year, after getting my HND and i was outta thier!!! I found it AWEFUL!!! Sheesh the men, they were always whinging and whining, gossiping about each other! It was like being at a womens tea party! And thats just the muslims! The whole atmosphere of uni i just didnt like, the free mixing, the asians treating it like a place to come with thier lovers and show everyone thier intimacy, the punks, the hippies, the homo's, the drunks, the druggies the junkies, the drunk lecturers, it was a nightmare!!! I was supposed to have done the degree also, but as soon as i got my HND, i was like "no way do i wanna spend another day here" and so i've been working ever since!

let me guess what you studied for your HND - Computing? Business studies?

I have made a committment to finish my course so insha'allah I shall complete it with a grade reflecting the hard work i have put in over the years.

Although I do emphathise with your experience of uni.  Indeed there is much Kufr.  However if you stay focused on your aim to get an education rather than a leisure cruise LOL, insha'allah you will succeed.

Well, when you tell a dog to sit s/he sits obediently.
When you tell your lady members of the family to stop shopping, they'll have a moody for a week. ;). And no sister can deny this, this is the truth. I know you all agree with me.

I deny:);)
But i think you'll find your kitchen emty if the woman of the house don't go shopping;)  (u men should cut down on your eating or learn how to buy the things that r needed;))
When the ladies go shopping theres food in the house for atleast a week!!! When men go shopping they take longer shopping and buy the wrong products!:o (its typical!!!)

ok i know u wern't talkin about groceries, but it does count as shopping.
