Google bought you-tube today for about a billion dollars. That is one of the biggest things google has been known to buy. Asalamualaykum.
Bound to happen?
October 10, 2006 by erethormaPurity of Heart
October 9, 2006 by erethormaAsalamualaykum. I have been keeping myself in check for the past couple of years. One of my many dreams had been attaing a normally high state of emaan and knowledge. Atleast so much that I blot out all the embarrasing, frustrating, and foolish parts of my life. This is not to say that I do not do such things but that I construct it into positive reinforcements deriving a lesson from each event. I have heard of people that live their lives with minimal regrets. I think that life is a blessing from Allah Subhanawatallah. These people seem naturally good or atleast they type that help others along the right path with themselves. They handle the foolishness of others and the despair of others with proper guidance and give hope… Atleast thats who I want to be… I can not really put everything together. I am always in a lack of words for my expressions but thats just me… Asalamualaykum…
Antithesis to Nasheed theory A.
October 6, 2006 by erethorma11:5o P.M.
Maybe the neurogens stimulated by the brains are the lacking section in most peoples brain… If so, Nasheeds open a gate for such people to begin an understanding of Islam… Somewhat… My brain is not functioning… LOLOLOLOLOL
Nasheed
October 6, 2006 by erethormaAsalamualaykum. 11:18 p.m. : I have a brainstorm. My thoughts are jumbled up yet again… >>>
Maybe I am not in a position to discuss the things I am about to. If I am not in such a position please humble me down back to where I belong.
My personal thoughts of Nasheed are that they are not wrong but are nevertheless artificial. That is if they apply music.
I do not know if I have previously posted on music yet but as a recap, music tends to elevate certain “sympathetic” waves in our brains. It influences us to feel emotions in a scope that we would never feel in normal situations. The emotions that are generally heightened subsequently follow the type of music listened to. Rock, country, hard, and soft generally each follow a various emotion. Interesting is not it (forgive me for not using contractions). Back to the main point.
If a nasheed applies music and is used as a source to heighten emaan then the emaan raise is artificial. This is because the eman raised due to this method relied on “sympathetic” wave pattern pertaining to eman be activatated. This activation is most likely caused by the brain releasing neurogens. Anyways, emaan is supposed to be raised by knowledge and understanding not the feelings attained through nasheed.
Due to my hazy mind I might have not been fully able to express my ideas. Even if I did express my ideas, it would take a heck lot of effort to deciper and find my actual meaning…
Jazakallahkhair. Asalamualaykum.
Unusual Situation Today…
October 5, 2006 by erethormaAsalamualaykum. Today while I was sitting at the library with what I like to call Hamza’s groupie, this girl randomly comes over and sits at our table. It was not so random as one of Hamza’s friend (no names shall be named) is a friend of that girl. This friend needs some serious Dawah but I think he is getting there albit slowly… Me and Hamza left the table shortly after the girl’s arrival wandering aimlessly around… I got tired of that not too long later. I went back to the table and kindly told the girl to leave. I thanked her as she left but overall I was and am dissatisfied with this situation. Was it alright for her to come in and sit there? Should I have really told her to leave? I actually think I made the right decision. The thing is, I need to find a proper way to give Dawah and explain why I told her to leave. No one picked up that topic but I know I missed a valuable opportunity. Asalamualaykum
Im tired…
October 5, 2006 by erethormaIt is 11:29 right now. Make that 11:30… For the past couple of days I have stayed up working or otherwise until 1:00 a.m. I feel sick of waking up at 5:30 a.m. My life is not that bad but I am not that strong either… My internet connection is currently functioning between 11 Mbps to 48 Mbps. To be honest, no matter how high the number goes up, it acts like any other 11 Mbps connection. I blame my connection on either my router (its a Dell) or my internet company(Altell)… I no longer trust Altell as they have servers down at least once every two months. But my router overheats so much I would not be so surprised if it was the cause. Taking a break from writing this>>>
11:40 p.m. I am tired of being so bored. It hurts just to even keep my eyes open. That is it!!! I give in to music at this point. Hopefully music is not as bad as I think it is. And yes; music does have negative side effects(I will post on it next year maybe…)
11:45 p.m. I was forced of the computer for obvious reasons a.k.a. “distraction”…
Today at some random time: I finally posted this useless article.
Patience and Resistence
September 26, 2006 by erethormaAsalamualaykum. Clearout inspired me to write a post of my own about this topic. Two major events in my life that taught me patience are Tarawhi and my trip to California(where ever Disney Land is…). Except for the month it takes place in, Ramadan, Tarawhi is the last thing on my mind. Each year I build up my back(literally), feet(literally), and patience during the month of Ramadan. skip>>>
My feet can not stand the blasting, brutal itch they are forced to cope with during Tarwhi. By the third to fourth rakkah the endurance begins. I can see veins beginning to pop out of my feet. My shoulders literally feel like they are titanium sockets litterally ready to floor my being to the ground. My mind feels numb as if ready to enter the “serene” state. My concentration hits rock bottom distracting me in various parts… Maybe if I actually understood the Surahs the Sheikh read(s) I would pay attention… Sometimes I wonder if any substantial Sahwaab is given for just listening to a Surah especially if you are distracted. skip>>>
Midway Ramadan I actually do build resistence. I learn to control my body and my feet do build up. It usually occurs very late though… skip>>>
I remember my trip to California. As good as the San Diego Zoo(whatever zoo it was), Disney Land(or was it Disney World?), Sea World(I do not remember this things name either), or Universal Studios was there is no way denying that the wait time for alot of the events nearly killed the trip. I remember waiting in lines for as long as an hour and maybe ten minutes. Imagine that!!! Only one ride for over an hour?! Outrageous? Definitely!!! My first day in Disney World(whatever) included a temperature of, I believe, over a hundred degrees farenheit. I think the sun was definitely happy to tan a few “gora” skins but ofcourse us desi are resistent to it. Neverthe less sweating like water flowing through a river definitely is not my idea of fun especially if it included a line that had an hour+ que time… Ofcourse there is more suffering and I will update later.
A Dillema
September 21, 2006 by erethormaAsalamualaykum. WARNING!!! My thoughts are currently jumbled up downgrading the quality of this post…
I faced incredibly tough choices not too long ago. I have been planning since December of last year to upgrade my computer. Well allhumdulillah there is a solution to nearly every problem and apparently I have solved the computer upgrade problem. The simple solution is be patient and wait… As if I did not already know that… I had and still plan to buy a PS3 as soon as its released and sell it on e-bay for price ranging of $900-$1250. This will net me a total of $500-$850. Since the release of X-Box 360 I have fallen under shadow as to the possiblity of this plan’s success. Here’s what I will spend the money on if I am successfull(inshallah).
Duah list(correct me if I am wrong to say this): Graphics cards ranging from+price and quality decrease as it goes lower-
Nvidia GeForce 7950 GX2-ATI Radeon X1950 XTX-Nvidia GeForce 7900 GTX-Nvidia GeForce 7900 GS… Needless to say I have my eyes set on the X1950XTX…
I am also interested in buying a 450-500 Watt Power Supply to rig up my computer.
A computer is useless without games. I plan to buy Guild Wars: Night Fall + Battlefield 2142 + Supreme Commander. GW and BF2142 by December.
Bottom Line: If I am wise in anyway I will be patient. The R600 next-gen card will be released near 1Q based on DX10. Of course this means that Windows Vista will be released at around the same time. I do not plan to buy the R600 as I am guessing it will be uber priced. It should however lower the price on all other Graphics Card. Inshallah my patience will win over stupidity… And chances are I might not even be able to buy Nvidia GeForce 7900 GTX even…
HB3 Equilibrium Break
August 4, 2006 by erethormaMore information needed on dramatic events that change human history. Scarrs/Effects/Remembrance. Individual responses. Analysis of humans in critical situations needed. Odd behavior hypothesis. Pausing Hypothesis: People will slow down or stop dead in whatever they are doing to understand and analyse the situation. The pause will be longer than ordinary maybe even a temporary paralysis. This is a given but there are complications…
