"You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one"

Welcome to the world of a dreamer...a person who is heavily influenced by music, a person who loves looking at things with a simplistic outlook. I am a big fan of The Beatles.

About Me

My photo
I am a dreamer, procrastinator, last-minute worker. Music is my passion--I am an obsessive music collector. Often I collect gigabytes of music only with the hope to listen to'em "someday". I like writing, reading, and I also cherish to learn to play the guitar someday...

First and The Furious

Day 1: Entry 1
6th November
BDT 19:49 (GMT 13:49)

One of my favorite hobby is to customize song and movie titles, to make'em a bit funnier, or to make'em more suited for being set as my MSN messenger nick. Hehe...so the other day, when I was listening to "Still Loving You" by The Scorpions, I just set my MSN nick as "Still Hating You", which generated two responses from two of my msn contacts.

One is an old and very close friend of mine, who asked "What's the meaning of this nick?". I told her..that's a tricky nick...I want everyone to have this impression that he or she is the hated one. She replied that I got smarter. Then I said, it is you who have taught me this technique, cause she was the one who had "I love you :) " as her nick on the valentine's day this year.

The other response I got was from another close and new friend of mine. She was a she, just like the first person. She said, "Why do you hate me so much???". lol...that was a funny comment to hear, at 1:15 Am in the morning. I retaliated by saying that you are also asking me to die. Cause she had this nick 'mor mor mor mor mor shala"...which means "die die die you brother of my wife".. ahem I know it doesn't ring a bell to you, if you're not from Bangladesh like me, but the word (despite of having an innocent meaning) isn't a very pleasant word to hear. Infact it's kind of a slang.

I am very close with an online community, namely Amadergaan

The incidents that happen there often affects me in my real life, which is not a very good thing.

Today I did my shopping for Eid. Eid is one of the largest festivals of our lives. Bought a pair of trousers, matched with the pair of shirts that I received as birthday gifts last month. The shopping was a mixed experience. I always enjoy shopping with my mom and sister, which highly contradicts with the liking of guys who have the same age as mine.

I also bought a DVD compilation of all the LOTR games released till date (on PC). I installed "Return of The King", and played it for half an hour. As I really enjoyed the last part of the trilogy, I liked the game, too. After playing the game, I read a few reviews on gamefaqs, where people said that the game is really crappy. Infact out of 10 people, only 2 gave less than 5 scores (in a 10 scale) to the game. I checked out gamespot review before buying the game. They gave it 8.5 or something like that, which is a pretty good score.

While I'm writing this, I am hearing my mom weeping beside me, on the phone. My uncle, and my mom's younger brother, died off a terrible accident, 2 years ago. She recalls the sad incedent every now and then, and sheds tears. Right now she is sharing her tears with my aunt (her elder sister). Everytime my mother cries, I feel terribly helpless, cause death is such a loss which cannot be condoled. It gets even more difficult when it's a premature death. My uncle was only 33 when he died.

Anyways, that was my first entry here. Hope at least someone out there found it interesting.

Bye and take care all
Ishtiaque
