Dedicated To You

Ok. So I have been delaying this post for some time because publishing it would mean it's done. But cant delay it anymore. The gaps between my posts have been growing. My last post was more than two weeks ago. Its obvious that my blog's life is coming to an end. Not because I dont have any new topics. There is a lot of stuff going on in my life which I would love to share with you all. But sadly I dont have the time anymore. My exams are in June and nowadays all my energy is focused on studying. Which doesnt give me time to blog anymore. And yes, blogging is time consuming. First you arrange your thoughts (which already is such a difficult task with my mushy brain), then you type it all out (me being me, I edit ALOT) and most time consuming is choosing an appropriate picture from hundreds (such a difficult task looking at hot naked men).

I have seen quite a few blogs which just die out. The blogger just stops publishing posts and thats it. I dont want that to happen to my blog because it and all of you have been an important part of my life since the last few months. It deserves a proper end. Not necessarily an end since I might continue blogging after my exams. But thats after two months. And knowing myself, I know I'll probably stop. So I thought I'd end it with a shout out to all of you who ever read my blog. After all, I wouldnt have yapped on and on about my life if you guys werent there to read it and offer suggestions or encouragement. So, thank you. All of you who are following my blog, reading it, liking it, commenting on it and helping me. I love each and everyone of you for being my support group and helping me through me issues. Here is a shout out to a few individuals without thanking whom, I cant end it.

Phunk Factor. You have been my guardian angel ever since we met. You made me start blogging and I discovered that I do have a talent and people like it. I cant thank you enough for that. You have always been and I know you will remain, my biggest supporter always. Love ya dude!!

Derric. My one true gay friend in Oman. Even though we sometimes dont agree, you are always there for me when I need ya.

Eros. Even though you rarely comment on my blog, I know you follow it and thanks for being there for me always :)

Samuel Khan. You are SUCH a positive person! All your glowing has made this small bubble of hope inside me and I am grateful to you for it. Plus you give me strength with your devotion to Allah.

Andrea (Andy). My only girl friend who knows I am gay. I love knowing you and treasure your words of wisdom.

Adeel. Your words of encouragement and support always made me feel so warm and happy. And you write awesome mate!

Also to Haider Ali, Dominic, Faisal, Justin, Joshua, Clink, Sam Amk, Chuck, Michael and everyone else who ever read my blog, a BIG thanks from the depth of my heart. If I forgot anyone then please forgive me. I literally checked most of my posts to make this list :p

For those of you who are getting sad, I might be back after my exams. Who knows. I just wanted to thank you all. So my bloggy friends, take care of yourselves, live life to the fullest and most importantly,  have safe sex! :p Loads of love, this is Aaron Khan, signing out.

High - Five

Been wondering for a few days what to blog about. Life just seems to be full of crap and it just keeps piling and piling. You get through one problem and it seems as if there are two new ones. Just focusing on all your problems is enough to bring anyone down. I for one am tired of blogging about the difficulties I am going through. This is going to be a happy blog post :) For the last few days I have been looking for reasons to be happy  And that gave me the idea for this blog. I am going to post 5 things that make me happy. So that whenever I feel down, I can go back to this post and see that its not so bad. So, lets get on with it:

1. Series

I have been a tv-series addict for a very long time.Grey's Anatomy, Glee,  Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Friends are among my top favorite series. Whenever I watch a show, all my issues seem irrelevant. I get totally absorbed in what's happening with the characters. I feel their pain and happiness. And the best part is that in just 40 minutes, they are able to solve their problems. Which sort of gives me hope that bad times will go away. Moreover, watch series such as Friends and Glee and its literally impossible to be depressed anymore.

2. Music

Best creation of mankind. Even though listening to music is a sin in Islam, I dont think I can ever let go of it. Music is a part of my soul. All day long I have ear phones plugged in. Music has the power to change your mood more than anything. You can go from depressed to happy by just changing the track. Dance has always been one of my passions. So whenever I play a dance number, I just cant stop myself from shaking my groove thing :p And whenever I am alone at home, I put on music,sing and dance. Its so liberating! Happy times.

3. Gym

Two years ago if you had told me I would become a gym lover, I would have laughed. But now, I am slowly becoming addicted to it. If I dont go any day, I start feeling guilty as if I am doing something wrong. I read in an article that physical exercise releases endorphins in your brain which are like stress releasers. So you end up feeling positive instead of sad. This has actually been tested by me. Yesterday I was totally down and didnt feel like doing anything. Still I went to the gym and when I came home, I realized my mood had lifted. Also, when you see your body getting shapely, it alone is enough to make you happy :p

4. Chris.

Chris has been my soul mate friend since childhood. He is the one I go to whenever I need 2 vent about anything. Talking to him makes my problems look smaller and easier to over-come. He always listens quietly while I rant and babble. And once I am done, I feel so light. Technically he isnt a "thing". But he is someone who cheers me up.

5. Fireworks

Ok I know this one is really weird and some people might think it as lame. But there is something really enchanting about fireworks. We had a firework competition in Oman in December. Australia, Italy and France were among the competing countries. The competition was held at a park and would start at 8. People would be yapping, children would be crying and the park would be full of hustle and bustle. But once the show started, everyone would just shut up. And for the next 30 minutes, the whole world would stop existing for me and I would be totally lost in the beautiful shapes, designs and colors of the fireworks. And God knows why, but it always left me with a warm and glowy bubble inside me.

So that was my list of 5 things that cheer me up. Now you should think of 5 things that make you happy. Everybody's life is full of problems. Everybody gets down. It's necessary to remind yourself of things that make you happy.
