Today is the Sunday the 29th of December 2019 , the 2nd of Jamadi ul Awwal 1441 H till the Sunset ( 7:16 pm ; Karachi ) And this is my the Sunday Blog # 195 ( Hundred and ninety five ) .
So here we are at the very Last Sunday Blog ( i love doing this Always ....LOL) of the year 2019 ( twenty nineteen sounds very creative don't you think ? ) just because it is the very Last Sunday of the Year 20-19 ...you know in our Urdu proverbs ...we have one of the most common
انیس بیس کا فرق...unness (19) beess ( 20 ) ka farq ...meaning or indicating a very minute difference almost negligible....so i am not very sure if we can use the two numericals in this order ....beess ( 20 ) unness ( 19) ...and still claim that there is negligible difference ...i am very sure that you by now have very clear idea of what i am getting at with this number game ...
yes ...the year 20 19 or two thousand nineteen was indeed an important year in my life ...It was one of the few years that passed very briskly ...in my life ...The unbelievable economic crisis in the country that turned the Blue ...Blue and White ....the White ...did not bother me at all ...which at times surprises me as well . Another very interesting urdu proverb is that " jo boya tha wohi kato gay ...." i believe the English similarity for this urdu proverb is
'جو بویا ہے وہی کاٹو گے '
...
As you sow ...so shall you reap ...with this i am of two minds very clearly ....One says that since you remain so aloof ....while the whole country was facing the worst economic crisis in the history of the country ....the coming years will get you down on your knees ....
the other mind says .......NOTHING AT ALL !
Tonight i have skipped the dinner and the supper ....and there is a very good chance that i will miss the fajr breakfast as well ....just to be able to eat the special Sunday Brunch
the smell is just awesome ...you cannot imagine how i am sitting here today and doing this my the Sunday Blog # 195 ( Hundred and ninety five ) while the special Sunday Brunch is being cooked at this hour .
Thanks to Doctor Saab who took a khan wala U- turn this week . Telling me not to eat ....he not only eat it but shared it with ...okay later ....LOL
So thanks to my dear siblings ....the CNG closure may end soon or atleast get relaxed in the coming week. As i wont be required to take a bus ride today and maybe the next Sunday as well .
So whether you see it as a good gesture from me or not ....at least me and my siblings do care about the poor people more than the British and American allies ruling us . Both, Centre and Sindh government are blaming each other and scoring points ....
Amazing isn't it ?
So who do you think is doing it ?
In dollar $$ terms one side wants the gas money and the other needs the money ....so i don't think it is very difficult to see who is doing it .....
No body care about the hardships of the people in line at the gas stations ....
OKay time for a break ....
2:05 am Break ( words )
3:35 am Okay just turned off the stove ....means this awesome smell or aroma will continue for few minutes ....man this is tougher than getting up on a sunday morning at eleven and going to the burns road and back ....with the special Sunday Brunch .
The last time we checked it was not fully tender so we let it cook for more than half an hour ...no not a full hour ...no i did not open the cooker ...just left it to cool down on its own so hopefully it will be all soft and tender ...and sticky . Btw who will fetch the naan .....? how i get up early before the noon ...these days the fajr is late ... the time starts at almost six ...so at the earliest i can sleep at six thirty after prayers ....at 11 : 30 am it will only be five hours sleep ....and if i picked up the mobile any time before or after the sleep ...then the usual happens ...at least 1:30 pm
So this means that i wont be able to go to the mosque for the Zuhr prayer ...okay never mind ....
SO now lets talk about the ARY 's soap which is clearly in the second position on the karachi the most dangerous city in the world , twitter trends ....here see for your self
Now this is even more disturbing that only Hard core bhasphamy can push it down from the first position on the twitter trends for karachi the most dangerous city in the world on the screening night .
Watching yesterday's
episode # 20 of Merey paas tum ho the weekly show ...i realised it is the ARY 's show ....because if it had been a Geo TV show ....they keep the maafi ...forgiveness for the wrongdoers and sinners from the one really wronged throughout the serial for the last episodes ....and if it had been a Mulla 's TVONE serial ...Mr Danish would have either committed suicide or found a job as butler somewhere .... and lived happily ever after ....But here in the ARY ...you know very well how the soft hearted ...kind in nature and GOD fearing the management is ....Once upon a time they even tried to save the BOL network
....and now they are so rich that they offered to save the Worldcall with a $55 million .......
So coming back to the Episode # 20 of the Show Merey Paas Tum Ho ....
Mr Danish has everything honestly now that he did not have five months ago when he had Mahvish ....But the freedom to not take back Mahvish his cheating ex wife . So typical ARY ....
What's life without a little pain
The good thing is on a little break
You'll be fine and up again, yeah
The goal is to bring the human back to the world
'Cause nothing will last
But bring it home as a friend, yeah yeah
Oh the sinner is you
The sinner is you
4:44 am Break ( 1062 words)
5:43 am Okay then i believe it is time ....the astro twilight today is at 5:54 am ....and sun rise is 7:15 am
so i will pray the fajr at the earliest time today and wont wait for the fajr Azans from the mosques ...and then sleep ....even though the Brunch is half ready ....
yes you can see the difference so the job is well done ....
the quickly i sleep now the better chance i have of getting up early ....to enjoy it .....
I was wrong ....the Azans have started .....our neighbourhood mosque is usually no definitely will be the last more than half an hour later ....they pray very near the sunrise ...
Anyways ...
So here i take a Break for prayer with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!

2:58 pm Good Afternoon !
Sun 2nd Jamadi ul Awwal 1441H
22°C
1:43 pm Good Morning ! 😴
So as you can see from the first tweet I woke up after the final zuhr azan which means that I missed the zuhr prayer and khawaja Saab ki barsi ..I have no idea why I missed his funeral as well
Anyways
Allh maghfirat karey Amen !
So soon after I woke I got out of the bed expecting that I missed the special Sunday brunch but I was so glad to know that I was Early dear brother had gone to the market so I assumed that the hot naan bread would be coming anytime soon ....I hurriedly washed and clean and had a hot bath . The moment I started to pray he was here .
So I prayed with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!
After prayers I had the special Sunday brunch 😄
And then hot ☕tea
And now I am back to the Sunday blog 😁
I have tried very hard to eat only one helping with just two naan bread and a spoonful of extra gravy ...😄🗽
3:24 pm power off thank God I was on the Mobile 😜😂
So it is a 🌞 sunny Sunday afternoon no wind the most interesting thing about karachi the most dangerous city in the world 👻 is that unless there is a chilly Westerly wind nobody believe it's cold people here usually don't check out the temperature to see if it's cold or not . Like last night there was a difference of more than 10 ° C in the inside and outside in the open . People especially the old people and the young kids usually fall I'll easily and quickly because they don't mind this difference in temperature and also the temperature difference of the water when they wash clean or do the wazu five times a day .
Yesterday I went to the local store and the shop assistant was badly coughing on me and my shopping . I knew it was a challenge and I kept my calm and keep asking for this and that But before I could check out an imported family came and surrounded me the kids didn't have an accent so I am not sure about the origin of the virus but they were carrying the flu virus not sure if they were imported or local brands .
So after this brief encounter with multiple kinds I have kept my self under observation so far everything is good even after sitting on the computer all 🌃 night till fajr .
After eating the hot and spicy Sunday special brunch the body temperature was up and I took off the sweater and was feeling okay but then the power was shut down and I came out in the lawn and started doing this my the Sunday Blog# 195 (Hundred and ninety five) suddenly I feel after few minutes of sitting that my feet were cold I got alarmed and suddenly got up and put on the sweater
Over the years I have observed that most local and foreign Brand of flu and common cold virus 😷 I fondly love to call the weapons of mass destruction don't have their force over my immune system till my body is warm both inside out the moment I begin to get cold they win 💪
Anyways this does not mean that I am phobic of any kind and will stop going out or eating the takeaway unless I fear it's not halal or too expensive 🤔🤪
Okay it's time for Asr prayers with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!
4:20 pm Break (2053 words)
5:43 pm Since 5:00 pm the electric power is off and the neighbors generators are starting and stopping maybe because of the gas pressure ...this makes me thinking 🤔 how much to we rely on the natural gas and CNG and LPG (please don't ask what they are Short for...😅) Just now as I was warming up for the wazu , jumping up and down in the open , a rickshaw stopped near the main gate some guests of the neighbors came out and I saw a pet used bottle of cold drink hanging in the rickshaw behind the driver that was petrol connected to the engine though a thin plastic pipe . In the absence of CNG this is how some dare 😈 devil's are helping to run the show ....Karachi the most dangerous city in the world ☠️
Azans have started no electricity yet ☹️
Anyways it's time for the maghrib prayers break with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!

Sun 3rd Jamadi ul Awwal 1441H

7:37 pm Good Evening ! Happy Hanukkah ! I believe the Jewish festival of lights 🕎 will end today or tomorrow and then it will be the new year's Eve and the New year on Wednesday .
Yesterday when I mentioned to someone that it is Sunday tomorrow
She asked where did the week go ?
Now this one is even shorter the Monday and Tuesday will be gone in anxiety and hope for the New year and Wednesday and Thursday will be bills and Tzedakah door bells and banging and this will bring us down to Friday noon the Juma prayers and after Juma it will be more Tzedakah ..bells ringing .. probably a New year's head count or two by uncles or aunts ..and before you know it the week will be over gone for good and then the last minute shopping ...for Sunday 🤪
This is it . And looking at the multiple power shutdowns today I don't think the next Sunday will be any different from this one today unless my dear elder siblings choose to relax and ordered some fast food takeaway then we will have more Facebook Meetup s then we had today despite the multiple power shutdowns
Lol
Somebody is definitely loosing the touch 🤣
Since last week we lost the Urdu 1 tv on the Cable ..which BTW was restored this week at very different position on the channels list But I was gone and moved to the YouTube channel of urdu1 tv plus somebody introduced me to a new Turkish Urdu dubbed serial of the short and charming Hazel Kaya as Maral the accidental CEO of a famous Fashion house Luna .
This week alone I watched 14 episodes and also the last 83rd .
Honestly i don't understand why such an interesting and entertaining serial was dubbed in Urdu and then left up for the grabs on the YouTube channel and not sold to the advertising butchers channels who would have made a fortune of the face value of Hazel Kaya and the enterprising Maral . Please let me know the story behind it ...please please please ! 💅
Okay it's dinner time 😊
8:41 pm Break ( 2664 words)
9:57 pm okay now its time for the movies of the week ....actually this week was very different from most of the previous weeks ....somehow the central tv set which was out of order got repaired ....must be a part of the cable and Net repairs or something like that ...so i decided to check up on the cable company's Home Movie channels ....and to be sure if the rumours about a buy out of the controlling shares of the cable Broadband company is true .....so i watched some of the re runs .....some half some quarters ....some as long as i could ....Not at all shocked ....not really surprised ....and definitely not the BOL network ....
So i guess , it is not necessary to review most of the movies of the week this week as they are or most of them are the Reruns ....
Anyways here are
the movies of the week :
- It’s good to believe in God Not rated ....but its a good movie ....maybe its not a movie ...just a dramatisation of the real life of most of the poor working people under CCP , CIA , KGB , ISI and the gang ....
- Stormageddon (2015)Rated 3 turkey ...sci fi ...save the world stuff ...very dumb ...
- Taken 3 (2014)Re run
- Where Is My Home (2017)Not rated ...yet another Korean ...Church movie / pamphlet too confusing ....but seem very real near to life ....
- Captain America: Civil War (2016)Re run finally i watched the ending .....
- The Tourist (2010)Re run ....the kiss was not sliced just a scratch ....lol
- Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge (2008) Rated R ...a foreign language Porn movie ...not sure how it was available on my youtube .....only plastics and rubber ...nothing serious don't worry ....seen logical ...
- Inside Out (2005)Rated 5 stars ....very interesting movie ...only the week was not right for it ....could have watched it again but there was no thrill or suspense now ....so lets just forget it ....
- The Sky Is Pink (2019)Rated 6 stars ......so one more farhan akhtar movie strike out from the list ....how many more to go .....? LOL
- Bridge of Spies ( 2015)Re run ....actually i love this movie ....but it was too late so i only watched half here ....
- The Space Between Us (2017)Re Run ....earlier i only watched the ending this time i started early .....soon i will catch the beginning ....IA
- Transporter 2 (2005)Re run love the series ....can watch either of the sequels with or without the edits cuts ....trumps ....
- A Rumor of Angels (2000)Rated 6 stars ....LOL not really familiar with the ambiance ....maybe ...not sure ....Morse code and the classical dance ....am very proud to have failed in both .....LOL
- Dunkirk (2017)....... hai mashak ay sukhan jaari ......someday i will watch this one with pop corns all in one .....
- The Illusionist (2006)Rerun ...no comment
- Dare to Love (1995)Rated 8 stars .....Awesome movie ....could have been better ...loved it .
Okay this is it .....from the movies of the week ....i had no idea i can watch many more if i watch them on cable ....since they usually show the repeat and rerun .....i am not sure if it is suicidal or not .....because the telenor is already spamming about the free Netflix through mobile balance and easypaisa .....LOL
OKay i guess this is it ...So good Bye and a Happy New Year 2020 ....
i really had fun doing this my the Sunday blog # 195 ( Hundred and ninety five )
looks like one of the not so popular tv and media network has given up all or any hope of ever catching me watching their soaps on a tv ...so they have started the street theater ...lets if i have time to watch it and catch pneumonia .....if that's their plan ....anyways ....its been a very awesome year no matter what .....and i am sure the coming one will hopefully be a little better ....than the previous five six years ....
okay anyways here is a very cool song from that "Hold on " Guy walter something ....i am sure everybody knows and remembers ....it is said the i never get to see the tv series The Heights from which this song was taken ....or to be politically correct the tv series for which this song was sung and written .....I am sure you will understand after watching the song video i have preferred to share over the official video of the song . Now the story does not end here ...because if you search the heights on the google or IMDB a new tv series of 2019 will appear which has nothing to do with the tv series of the nineties and the rock band the Heights .....so please don't be lost in translation ......
okay that's it ...sometimes it takes many minutes to be published so once again A very Good Bye ....All the BEST and a Happy New Year to All .....!
