Wish List

Salaam,

Since xmas is approaching soon - the xmas lights in London have already been switched on, kids are writing to Santa, xmas gift ideas are being shown on TV...and people are already playing 'secret santa' at work.

I think it'd be a good idea to list all the things that we want...not neccessarily for xmas, but just generally.

It can be material things.
Spiritual things.
Religious things
Social things.
Emotional things.
Academic things.
...Or even things for others.

etc etc

Wasalaam

where do i start?

it's allhamdulilah for now.

If i make it through this year and im still standing.

I'll be grateful.

No not the gum drop buttons! – Gingy

have you tried cleaning the keyboard? (gGt a lemon wipe, insert an edge between the keys.) Can you pull the keys out? (do it carefully - you don;t wanna break any of them)

Maybe because you walked with your head up?

Women native from pakistan tend to hunch their backs ever so slightly... some from here do that too.

I can see some lit hole things where you can normally slip in and underneth to bring up the keyboard. But they are too small. Probs will only be able to get a needle in and that aint gonna be strong enough. Il jus give it a good clean.

I want to get some solid career direction.

And a laptop...

1) A part time job
2) Laptop
3) PC in my room
4) PSP
5) pass my driving tests

i see 2 common features of people's lists: laptops and cars. hhmph. in my day we were happy with pocket calculaters and a skateboard!

i realised i have enough material things - probably too many.

I would LOVE more energy though. Enough to wake up for tahajjud and then do all my studying before dawn. Enough to stay bright and alert throughout my 4-hour classes at the end of a long day at work. Enough to do all my housework early on a sunday morning so i can attend my jamat on time. Enough to let me see all my friends aswell as all my family. Enough to cook properly. Enough to read. Enough to go to the gym. Enough to cycle to and from work again.

More energy...or more time.

Infact, if there WAS one material object that i would like to have, it would be Bernard's Watch (if it was for real).
Then I could stop time while I slept for as long as I wanted, or studied my books.

Time is the most precious thing we can ever possibly have (other than belief in Allah (swt)).

Don't just do something! Stand there.

Energy is a blessing...I too reg ask for that and wish I had more of it.

I've found that reading Fajr, eating Fruit/Salad daily, eating well (esp carbs) - being in bed by 11pm and sometimes eating vitamins makes a difference.

I try to do that above on a daily basis.

trust me driving isnt all that. I use to be like that oh cant wait till i pass and go around driving my own car, no more waiting for those buses that never turn up, no more putting up with ppl who smoke on the buses. While a car does have its advantages when it breaks dont it is a pain. They are more hassle then they are worth.

My car has NEVER broken down, there were some minor problems but it was driveable.

I've seen more broken down buses than cars.

My car has never broken down either - and its a second hand banger.

I LOVE having a car cos to me a car means - no more messing around with public transport, no more waiting/running for the bus in the rain, I can spend the day in different parts of London - get all my things done and still get home early...AND no more lugging heavy shopping bags/books or files.

I can attend events late at night and not be worried about catching buses in the dark - I dont have to rely or depend on others for lifts.

AND I get to take my mum out weekly. Biggrin

When I passed my driving test I used to take the car out nearly every day, and I used to even go and ask my mum if she wanted to go anywhere :shock:

Now she's the one who has to ask me, and I'm like "Mum, do I have to?".

I also promised to take my mum wherever she wants/whenever she wants...now I tell her to always wait for the weekend. However, I do go out of my way to keep some part of my weekend free for her.

What can I used to clean my screen apart from a dry cloth? Why do people feel they have a need to touch the screen when they can quietly point at it , i'll never know :x

those cloth wipes you get with a pair of glasses. If you use a different cloth,. make sure it is soft.

Or get a duster.

Do NOT use a vacuum cleaner. :oops:

mechanically mine has been fine. But the simple things like running out of petrol or getting a flat tyre can be a pain. I hate drivin coz it means getting lumbered with all the driving.....
go an pick your brother up from school, go and pick your sister from work, drop me off to town, get the shopping in, go to the docs and pick up so n sos prescription, go to the pharmacy n pick so an sos medicine and it goes on. I find that picking up after 7 ppl leaves me with no or very lil time to get anything i need doing.
