Aaaah! It's rewind time! (Imagine listening to it in the voice of Will Smith!) I don't know why but lately, I have been feeling this urge of writing about or summarising my 2019. I am not sure about the underlying cause for this longing but I am sure that this piece will certainly help in figuring out my goals for 2020 as I can use it as a blueprint for the coming year. Also, I am not alone in this, there are thousands of people, especially bloggers and YouTubers, who do this every year so that they can analyze their year through a prism of rational perspective. And it suits most of them. So, hopefully, it will work fine for me as well. 2019 was a great year for me. I mean, it was a kind of year where a lot changed, mostly in a positive way. A lot remained unchanged, nevertheless. However, 2019 helped me a lot in evolving as a person. Before 2019, I was naive, reckless and above all, was still in the pursuit of identity. I wasn't sure about who I was and what I wanted. Ye...

Although I am a huge JUNEJO fanboy yet I will try my best to refrain from the subjective perspective as Irfan Junejo doesn't need any kind of opinionated or biased introduction. For all those who don't know Junejo, well, that's a pity because in the last couple of years, Junejo has not only revitalized the digital medium but has also given 'birth' to the trend of vlogging in Pakistan. Ever since the introduction of the phase,  SCNZ KUCH AISE HAIN , hundreds of Pakistani YouTubers have opted this path and thousands of youngsters have started their YouTube channels to follow the footsteps of our very own Casey Neistat .  Juenjo has contributed to such an extent that it can be said that Irfan Junejo is the pioneer of vlogging in Pakistan and rightly deserves the credit for giving a completely distinctive outlook to the genre of vlogging.     Here it is important to mention that  I am not undermining the contributions of other vloggers and YouTubers as sev...

2019 is almost here so, I thought that It would be a great idea to list few things that I have learned in 2018. Before coming to what I have learned and how excited I am to dive into 2019, I want to admit that this blog is inspired by the latest video of Logan Paul in which he has talked about his controversial video and how he has coped with the fallout and the hatred that was thrown into his face. I am not a fan or should I say not a member of ‘LOGANG’ but that video really moved me to write this blog.   2018 was the most significant year for me, not because I had to find a job or a career but because I had to reinvent myself and had a lot on my hands in terms of giving a new dimension to my life. As I am writing this, I am feeling no shame in admitting that I couldn’t reach most of the goals that I set at the start of 2018.But at the same time, I am very proud of the fact that, after consistent struggle and help from my peers, I have finally achieved a balance between my...

There are days when you ask yourself about the validity of remaining optimistic. Pessimism is the only option sometimes or as most people say there comes a time when reality starts bothering you. But reality is messy and so does the sadness. When we try to linger on things which we can’t control, we end up facing the reality, eventually sadness prevails and optimism fades away. Sometimes when you wake up in the morning, you feel a lot of energy, a lot of positivity to start your day. Things, kind of, go the anticipated way and at the end of the day your optimism about life remains intact. You don’t feel that there is a harsh aspect to it as well. Although you know that life is a balance of joys and hardships yet you don’t want to think about the later. Optimism’s the winner in such days. But when you come home after a long day of struggle with no reward, and reward doesn’t really mean a materialistic thing rather it can simply be a smile of the beloved or some encouraging words fro...

To lose in love is to lose in life . Of all the miseries, this life can offer the one which comes in the form of loss in love is the hardest to endure. And it’s not only ordinary humans but also the very likes of kings and emperors couldn’t overcome this feeling of being left alone. Love has been a topic of great interest and research for a long period now. Starting from the early days of humans on planet earth to this technological era of 21 st century, love has been an entity of constant observation and it has been studied in every era by the great writers and scholars. People of great wisdom and stature have tried their best to analyze this very complicated yet the simplest concept or human behavior. To say it with absolute simplicity love is nothing but giving someone else’s life more importance than yours, making someone so special for you that it goes beyond reasons and logic. And if we see the complicated part then love is a sacrifice not a desire, a pain not a joy, not ...

A story not told will end up as a story never happened at all. Like most of us I tend to write to keep things alive. And as it is said not all writers are sad rather sad people usually write, I seem to fall in the same category of disappointed people. Well, my story has not always been sad, there had been days when I thought sun couldn’t shine any brighter, life couldn’t be more colorful and I couldn’t be any happier but just like any other human, after having my fair share of happiness I had to wander through the valley of dark and gloomy days. It wasn’t a long time ago I was happy to such extent that I thought I’d never be sad again. I was so full of life and joy that I presumed I’d never see the dark side again. I had what I wanted, had the love I desired for, had the girl I fancied, people around me were loving and caring and above all had the purpose to move forward and was ready to inspire the world. I was so happy that I thought the inevitable, I’d never be sad again. ...
