Hello Friends
           
        *Ramzan Mubarak* It's near a month since my last post, but kya karoon there's no time left for these activities anymore. I am now in class XI, have much more to study, have to concentrate on coachings also, the work given at both the places, plus extra pressure and tensions from personal life as well. And am going through, carrying all this, in so little time. I know that everyone has the same amount of time i.e 24 hrs, but I surely can't manage it!! After Coming to XI, there's much of a change into me, don't know how but the change has crept in there. A change which made me much frank, more talkative, expressive and more mature in emotional matters. And yess there's one more thing, after the iPod Nano, the new gadget to come my way is my new Nokia N72, it's marvellous, superb, and I love it!!!
         
        Well now speaking of the 'Second Attempt', it was a real second attempt, at something which I was going to do only the second time in my life,yet. Acting On Stage. Yes, after 4th October 2007, and barely a year after it on 5th October 2008, I again went on to the stage, for an act. This time my role was much bigger and elemential than the earlier one! This time I was the leader of the class bully-group, a role which was exactly opposite to my real image in school i.e of an obedient, simple boy. This challenge, and the passion to do something attracted me towards this, and I gave it my best, even after fasting (for Ramdan). My efforts paid off, as I was congratulated and praised much for my acting skills, and so much that it went a little embarassing, maybe it was beacuse it was the first time I had performed an act before my school and got so much appreciation (MashaAllah!!). I don't wish to do anymore role, but never say never, and hopefully get some better deals ahead! That's all for this time, hoping for some more adventure or fun after the 'change'.. For more, keep connected with  this space!!!

Hello Friends,
          
           I know that it's after a real loooonnnnggggg time..!!! But the past time surely succeeds all the happiness in my recent past/posts. I have not been to my school from the last 5 months, but I have studied, travelled and enjoyed all thse, in this long break. (Break not actually, as I had my Boards, JMI Entrance etc., in between). So here I go------------->

     After the result of Boards, there was a wait for the result  of JMI XI entrance. The result came on 17th June, the day I was scheduled for my Lucknow departure. I had given both the Science and commerce exam and had all my hope, pinned up on Science, as the Comm. one went a little messy. When I saw the result, I was awestruck, didnt knew how to react!!... I had topped the Commerce batch of approx 5000 students, while there was no name of me in the science list. But the 'topper' marks, compensated for it, and didnt let anyone down, with the grief of science. It helped balance or more approriately put favour to happiness. So it was the second consecutive good result of mine!!!(MashaAllah)

    The trip to Lucknow was just for vacations, at my Cousin brother's home. I reached Lucknow on 18th, had a haircut on 19th and from 20th started relishing the mango festival at home. Lots of mangoes later and lots earlier, on 23rd June, I went for getting myreservation. It was hell!!!!, such a long queue!. It took me around 2 hours to get  one ticket. It was so hot and humid. One thing's interesting, that there were 18 seats, when I was standing in the last, when I progressed further, to mid-line, there were only 9 seats left, and as I reached to the fore--->No Tickets!!. Whoaa....what a consistency. Then 28th Morning Shatabdi was confirmed, at last! I came out, sympathising with those, in the last positions, in 6 long queues!!!

I reache the home safely, and presently preparing my text-books for the Study Onslaught beginning from 7th July! Arrrgghhhh..Schools Reopening. But still with Joy!

Will write some more later.

Love.

Hello Friends,
           This post is in contrast to my earlier post 'The Road Not Taken Or The Record Break-en'. First of all, it's very late today,my net wasnt working from 28th, its 31st today, but still, the news is still hot and am still getting congratulated. A fraction of you may have already understood, what I am going to say, but who didnt got it, here it is - I have cleared my Boards Exam and that with a MashaAllah good percentage- 82%. And now I could take up Science as my stream in my school and do computer programming, which I have a fanatsy for.

Let me tell you what were the things whch were there, hours before the declaration of the result by Board. I just slept for 2 hours out of 24, in that day..err night before the result. I was reading the Koran till late 2 a.m, when a power cut, forced me to go to bed. I had set an Alarm, to wake up for the fajr namaz. I woke up and went to the mosque, 1 hour earlier than the prayers. After the prayers, i came back and had tea. My parents asked me, to sleep after that, but there was no sign of sleep in my eyes, but couldnt get results anyway, as my net connection was not working. Then I used my father's mobile to check the result and kept banging on CBSE's site many times, each time to be greeted by a message ' Result not yet announced'. I went to the bed, but kept getting up again and again. A day before, I had asked my uncle to call me after seeing my result, only if it's good, or else I would talk to him later on. I had also registeres on the Mobile result service, so I was both nervous and tensed with my mobile's beep beep. Once I woke up and found 3 SMSes, I got nervous, blood all soaked up, mouth went dry. I hurriedly, opened the folders and got the following messages:
1.'Your account balance is low, Please recharge'
2.'Dial 404 for jokes, ringtones, wallpapers, etc.'
3.'Know your horoscope prediction for today at Rs. 6.99/ min' !!!!!

I fretted and fumed and laid down again. I 8:15 I got a call from my friend, asking me if he could come over at my place that day. I replied him, that he could, anytime and hung up. It was at 8:35 a.m, that my uncle called me up. Seeing his name flashing over the screen,I froze, thinking what could it possibly be?!! My mind thinking, at the rate which could give competition to even the strongest of the supercomputers today!!! All my happiness or sadness lied into this single call. This could either make it or break it. Then trembling with fear, I answered and said 'Hello'. My Uncle asked me if I had seen my result? I replied in the negative and told him about the net connection problem. Then he told me something which surprised myself too! He congratulated me, for I had secured 82%, much above I had expected!! I told it to my father, who just hugged me and said 'Mera Beta'. My mother after offering thanks to Allah, for help, came and repeated the same hugging gesture. Within minutes phone calls came showering in, congratulating me on this feat. 

I was happy, my family was happy. I gave smile to those lips, who were praying all the while for my well-being and good results, to those lips, which gave me peck for each of my achievement, which made it even sweeter. I gave twinkle to thiose eyes, which had beautiful dreams for me, which shed tears, when I am in pain. I made them proud and didnt let their faith down. Allah ka lakh-lakh shukr hai! It's called Happys Endings!!

I call my Boards result: A.P of A.P ( Arithmetic Progression Of Aaqib's Progress). It's like this:
Science:         78
English: +2 = 80
Hindi:     +2 = 82
Maths:    +2 = 84
Social:    +2 = 86

I just hope to keep this momentum up and InshaAllah to eventually increase it, and hope that such nice things keep pouring in!!!!

Love
Aaqib Khan

Hello Friends,

         I am back, yet again!..I went underground for some days, because of my Jamia entrance...It ended yesterday. There were two back-to-back tests, one on 25 May and the other one on 26 May. So even after the Boards, I was studying, studying and studying. I don't reject the fact that I didn't used to enjoy. I enjoyed every part of these days, but the tension was there, lingering above me, pressurising me, everytime towards something, which I have to face, later. Now I feel like a free bird, BUT, the flight is hindered by some clouds in the way, and those are- BOARDS RESULT -on 29 May. The tension in me, regarding the result has reached to the extent of those times, on which I was going to give my first Boards exam!. I am really nervous. God Help!. And to help me cope the after-shock, Nadeem bhai is arriving here on 30th, from Jodhpur, but his plan has got some rough sketches, after the Gurjar activities, in Rajasthan. I just hope that this violence comes to an end as soon as possible, it's even in the interest of the general public.

Moving on.....I have a Very Good news with me----I have got a new iPod Nano. Yiipppeeee!!!!!...It's great, it's awesome, it's cool!!...My uncle brought it from US, for me. It's a very, very nice gift!!..I loved it. A lots of thanks to him.

And for more, I have a whole month of holidays!! ( just one month, of the actual three) to enjoy, So hope, something nice, something good comes my way. InshaAllah.

Will write soon.

Love.

Hello Friends,  Foes,
         Nowadays, I don't know who to trust and whom not to. Everybody has changed, and the effect of time is seriously affecting my friends and their relation towards me. They get suspicious of my acts, try to backstab me at various situations etc. So I have called this as a disease, which is called 'Lets-Hate-Aaqib' Disease.
          It's a new kind of disease, which is spreading manifolds nowadays. In this, a person loses the ability to reckon with his/her own friends and gets taken over by misunderstandings and misconceptions of the fact related to the subject (i.e Aaqib).
          
Results:
This disease could make a person, shoot up his Blood Pressure, run high temperature of anger and discontentment and thus resulting in loss of money, in the form of fees for doctor !!!

Symptoms:
Being a communicable disease, it generally spreads through communicating, even while on phone or web. So following are the symptoms of this disease:
# Having close friends constantly speaking against Aaqib Khan.
# Developing a sense of repulsion for Aaqib Khan.
# Getting filled with anger and abuse when spotted Aaqib Khan.
# Provocating others against Aaqib Khan.

Precautions:
Following are the prescriptions to be taken as and when instructed:
# Contact Aaqib Khan atleast once a week, through Scraps, Calls, or messages.
# Never belive any rumour straightaway. First conform it, clear it with Aaqib Khan, and the proceed.
# Give optimum time for the subject to react.
# Have a clear talk.

And for all those who care to know, I am back on Orkut and my profile id is:

So Be Sensible & Be Responsible.

Hello Friends,
          (The break-en is written so, to make it rhyming with taken...Issued in public interest for all those unaware of poetic liberties ) I am again here, but this time, to tell something which I hadn't expected, to tell something, which no-one had expected, and that thing is that ...aa..ammm.....I have got Commerce..ya, ya that's true. The day I got to know about the subject offered to me by the school , I was dumb-struck and so shocked that , I wasn't able to utter a single word, and darkness spread over my eyes. I coudn't believe my ears. They were ringing the same thing again and again. I felt the sadness but couldn't cry. I felt helpless, but couldn't do anything. I told my mother, instantly about it, who consoled me istead of scolding me or telling me some harsh words. She told me that this are the little things, which will shape my tomorrow, so I should take them bravely and never take them so over-hyped over us that we lose ourselves into it. The next level was Papa, who was also that and much supportive. I think that's a family. A great family, and a lucky me , indeed.!!!
         Although the people, whom I thought would support me, got me a l'l harsh words. And then I began my mind-coaster to think that only the ones having Science have a life? or is this just an over-hyped virtue, of the hellish type-casted society, we live in, today ? Is it the cut-throat comptt. which makes it a hot option? My parents have supported me, saying that whatever, I would get, I should just give it my best shot and leave the rest to god. And they are right. God is there, who will show me my path, and would ahve thought best of me. The support of my parents, is enough for me to sail against the wind, and If I got Comm. for myself, I would show my best and wouldn't give anyone a damn to anyone against!!!
         O.K moving on to some better pastures,------> IPL Started and Knight Riders won the first match!!! I am with every team, but a little biased with Knight Riders, b'coz it's SRK's team. It's a good format and entertaining also. True to it's term- 'Manoranjan Ka Baap' . And there is a bit of my discovery here. Following are the pictures of two technical glitches I came across on IPL's website, a day later the mathes were held. I few minutes eariler, they were just fine and accurate, but when I later saw the, I felt, they are too good to be discovered, so I kept them and am showcasing them here. Comment and tell me which side are you on. Enjoy! and Always EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED!!!!
Love ,
Aaqib

Hello Friends,

          Today has been a good day for me. I just came back home after watching Krazzy 4. It was a good movie. In the morning I read one review of it, in HT, by Khalid Mohd., which described it as a bad movie, but still I opted for this one. After watching the movie, I felt like giving a tight one on Khalid’s butt.

           After the movie, we went shopping. Did lots of it. And I also bumped into Kishore Biyani, the founder-owner of Future Group. He was there for the 1^st anniversary of Home Town, and 5^th  anniversary of Big Bazaar, and was walikng quite normally, like other people do, in the stores.

           And now, I am planning to go at the movies again, the titles which I bought yesterday, from Saket Select Citywalk. Got 4 movie DVDs.

Bye for now.

Your friend,

Love.

Hello frends,
          This is the question doing my rounds of minds and am completely out of my mind to decide on the fields offered-- Science, Commerce ( Not even thinking of Arts). The confusion is due to the fact that on some trial looks at the matter of XI 's science and maths, I have got some serious jolts. So tough. While I was busy in this riddle, life threw one more dice at me. Yesterday, I went to my school. There my class teacher asked me , what I had planned for me? I replied- ' Science ', and then she looked at my report card and said, your whole years percentage ( Ist term, Half yearlies etc. ) have been good, but your pre-board might do some problem. And that very thought is going in my mind and baffling me, again and again. Pray for me.
Thanks.
Love,
Aaqib

Ahhh!!!....Very much relaxed..Just got back from a trip to my grandparents place. It's in village area and that meant a lot of greenery, a lot of fresh air, and less of pollution and tension. I enjoyed every bit of it. A good break from the board exams...Heyy, you must know that villages are the closest you can go to nature. I went and felt. The morning sunrise and the eveningset, with the cuckoo, in the back-ground, it's so pure and fresh. Got a lots of pictures. Will post the link of the Flickr folder soon.  But my classes are to start soon and the educational train will get on the line much sooner....Hoping to make the next post sooner.
Love
Aaqib
