What's new?

Hello few people who read my blog! Thanks for following and reading! Been a while since I posted! I didn't want to stir up trouble nor emotions with heavy reading. That's for next time, maybe? Anyways I got this new project I am working on its called Mystatis please check it out on the App Store if you have an apple phone! It's pretty amazing 

Uber life sometimes sucks

So uber is a "cab" company. There are both good and bad things about it. I drive for uber, and I had a tough day. So one of my customer was being really annoying and he said, "if you have a degree, why do you not have a job" etc and then he said "I only have a high school education and am in (some sheriff program) blah blah" and all this time I was getting really pissed at him. He has no idea that it's what I struggle with everyday and it's so easy for him. I just have not had the best luck. I have applied to so many jobs, and I have had maybe a dozen interviews. But it seems either they think I am over qualified or I lack job skills, which is it? I am beyond frustrated and am just about to give up! 

Tea party with yummy sandwiches

In a tea party you have to think of what your guests will enjoy, what kind of tea and sandwiches. But if you want a crowd pleaser then go with plain black tea, it works with most sandwiches and your guests can always add anything they please. For example cinnamon, milk (almond is great!), or sugar. You are welcome to adjust the recipes as needed. Also some breads are big, so adjust as needed

Corn sandwich

4 pieces of room temperature bread (not toasted and cut the crust)
2 cups frozen corn
1 tsp mayonnaise
butter (salted or unsalted)
salt to taste (depends on which butter you use)
pepper
chilli powder (optional)
shredded cheese (optional)

Directions
put the corn in a microwave safe bowl and heat it up for about 2 minutes (or less depending on your microwave). Make sure the corn is nice and hot, drain any extra water from the thawing. Add all ingredients and mix well. You can butter your bread and layer corn and serve.

Cucumber sandwich

4 pieces of crustless bread at room temperature
1 whole cucumber washed and cut into round slices
lemon
1 tsp cream cheese softened
pepper

Directions
Mix the cucumbers with pepper and lemon. Spread the cheese on the bread and layer the cucumbers to the bread.

Fancy Tomato Pesto Tea Sandwiches

1 container cherry tomatoes

1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp basil pesto

1 8 oz pkg cream cheese, softened

1 loaf thinly sliced white bread

fresh basil or parsley to garnish

Directions

Slice cherry tomatoes and place on paper towels.

Mix together basil pesto and cream cheese (I used

my hand mixer) 

Spread a generous amount of pesto mixture on slices

of bread and cut out shapes with desired cookie

cutter. Place one slice of cherry tomato on each

bread shape. Put 1/2 cup of the pesto mixture into

a piping bag with a small open star tip. (I use

disposable piping bags so that I can just throw

away after use.) Pipe a small swirl of the pesto

mixture on the cherry tomato and top with

a small sprig of basil or parsley if desired.

ah...the pettiness of people

so it has been confirmed by another friend that I had been "let go" because another tutor did not like me. Who knows why? I hardly talked to her and minded my own business, perhaps she was racist? As my supervisor said a student claimed that I insulted her because she was Muslim? I replied well, that's strange since I am Muslim, myself. Funny isn't it? Another instance was when one of the tutors didn't know what it meant to "bear arms" as in have guns, he thought it meant to have bear arms...0_o and I am a bad tutor? Now I am thinking, why in the world didn't I defend myself, esp if my one of the upper people said oh I got a lot of complaints about you...I should have said, then why didn't you call me into your office and confront me? Why didn't you let me know I was not doing my job properly? Don't I get a warning? Or advice? You just fire me because of some other employee doesn't like me? That person always makes baked goods and other things to be in good standing with others...ooo BLANK brought me cookies...that's awesome, doesn't matter if they talk shit behind my back...really? WOW...good luck judging yourself in the afterlife sister! May you be reborn a better person!

take me to court...won't you?

I watched a Pakistani movie, Khuda ke Liye, it's very nice. It has some very disturbing yet true information. The character Maulana Wali, played by Naseeruddin Shah explains the true Islam very effectively. It is my dream that I too understand the Quran as he did, so I could quote it to some of my misinformed family. No one wants to hear how they have been praying incorrectly, or how if we do not dress or act a certain way, we shall be punished. Ours is not a punishing God, He is absolute love, even if you murdered, tortured people. WHY? Because our souls are ever pure! If a diamond was surrounded by dirty rock, fungus, bacteria, and other bad organisms, would it change being a diamond? No, it would stay the same. Just like that our souls are ever pure. What happens if we die and we were the evil of most evil? Well our soul is taken to a sort of time-out where it is cleansed by loving beings of light. At some point we have lived an evil life, we are all ever learning, ever growing. If you read closely, you too shall find it. Ezekiel 18:20 says The person who sins shall die. A child shall not suffer for the iniquity of a parent, nor a parent suffer for the iniquity of a child; the righteousness of the righteous shall be his own, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be his own.
This verse can be interpreted in various ways, however what I have underlined, in my understanding supports that we are shown our rightful and wrongful behavior, it is only us that own it. In addition, it supports my theory that what we own, we are shown in the after-life known as Akashic Records, there are many blogs about it, research it. (one I found was http://www.raysofhealinglight.com/100_neddawittels.htm) there are also tons of after life websites which describe meeting God or sometimes with a higher power which is most of the time your higher soul. Paramhansa Yogananda is an amazing teacher on this subject. I am no teacher, I am just a baby who is in search of knowledge.

Heartbroken by Asma Raja

You were my friend, 

you could have been my companion,

you chose not to be.

I thought we could still be friends,

until you decided that we shouldn't be.

It's one thing to lose a potential companion,

but it's heartbreaking to loose a friend.

I could have been your all, until you chose not to be involved,

and for what? Your work? Your work will not share your life when you get old.

I may sound bitter, if that is so, then you made me that way.

You want an aggressive woman? WELL, here she is!

RIGHT IN YOUR FACE! You wanted someone who 

does not treat you courteously, 

now I don't think I can be that anymore, unless you apologize.

Even then, I do not know if I want my heart broken again.
