How many social networking sites do we need people?! Are the current social sites not working?!  MySpace is (was) good... Facebook is great... Twitter is awesome... YouTube is fun....and now Google+ really? REALLY? I mean it's nice that it's new and improved (at least this is what majority of the people I know are saying). But why! Everything was fine with Facebook. I just ... I feel like it's becoming overwhelming and semi-annoying. I can predict Google+ will replace Facebook. Give it a few weeks... I wish there was ONE networking site (only) and it included all of it... YouFaceSpitter+ or like FaceSpace+YouTwit lol ... I don't know. I just can't believe it. I thought we were done! I should've known better. If I knew HTML and such I'd just start some damn site and maybe become a billionaire like Marc Z! (I wish!) Anyway, so let me contradict myself real quick. I just made (started to use) a YouTube channel that I created in 2006 and never us

When I was growing up there were certain words that were never said in our house....Boyfriend, Dating, Sex, Girlfriend, Sex, SEX SEX even "sexy" was considered a BAD WORD! But this isn't unusual for Pakistani or Muslim households. My generation (at least the people I know) relate to these kinds of stories. I have two sisters and we like sleeping in shorts, but if our brother or dad were home, even that was considered offensive and 'disrespectful' because we are taught to cover our bodies and save our beauty only for our future husbands. Women are seen as sacred and beautiful and modest and should not be 'flaunting' their bodies or beauty. Shorts? I always thought my parents were crazy. But as I grew older I understood they did the best they knew and it all made sense in the end. Now? All the girls in my house run around in basically sleep ware 24/7 and it's the norm. As we grew, my parents grew too. :) Now for the big topic. MASTURBATION! Someone p

Someone I respect once told me that death and divorce can and will change a person. In my experiences, I know this to be true. Death can devastate anyone....but what I wanted to focus on is that it doesn't have to be permanent . I know it's easier said than done, but it's possible . Time heals everything. Divorce is scary! ....it's a promise that is being broken. If kids are involved it is painful. So why is the percentage so high in our nation? I can think of a few reasons ... 1) Getting married for the wrong reason 2) Not knowing the partner enough before committing 3) Committing before being compatible *mentioned before 4) Hopeful that the marriage will solve a problem 5) Feeling that only marriage proves commitment 6) Insecurity 7) Believing that marriage takes away being lonely 8) Gold digging 9) False beliefs 10) Marrying someone to make parentals happy 11) Not following your instinct I know there are millions more reasons, but those come to mind

Just wanted to remind the Internet world that what we post online (facebook, myspace, twitter, blogspot, ect.) is being published -until you physically delete it. If your posts are not set to private, it's possible for future job prospects/school opportunities to read what you post. We don't always remember that whether we are joking or saying something that is a private inside joke, someone professional won't understand. In fact, they won't even bother researching...they will just remove you from the list of canidates. It's easy to forget because now-a-days everyone is Internet involved and it's so easy to just type away. On another note, I wanted to point out that if you're reading this, you have 365 possibilities (if God's willing) to wake up and make your day a good day. The second you wake up you can decide whether you will make this day good, bad, in between, long, short, ect. Do you have bills? We all do. Do you have personal conflicts goi
