UAS.

People get freaked out when they are asked to /have to change schools,I don't understand why they feel so, Some nervous nerves eh?. Will start in the new school as a Sophomore on 27th of August.I think its a pretty good school so thought of sharing the detailed website with you (who ever you happen to be).

Universal American School (Kuwait) :-

http://www.uas.edu.kw/

High School Cirriculum :-

The Graduation Requirements aren't so harsh i guess,atleast we can choose.
P.E is compulsory, now thats where I see a little ray of sunshine in my life.

The best part is, we'll be having a new campus this year, its supposed to be one of the best buildings in kuwait as what i heard and have seen (Buster!, Buster!).

I hope being a Sophomore at UAS brings about the changes i need, and I recognize my talents and all my false deeds perish i.e the brutal nature which is always roaring for its approval, and I follow the right path just like a good student.

(WTF is wrong with me?).

Summer Reading.

Ive got to read these two really boring books ( Judging by the cover and back print ) for summer reading, Well im not sure if they are boring, I did get one, '' Lord of the flies '' by William Golding.The cover is pretty artistic though,the Green color actually blends in with the complexion of this kid.But the flies on it are a bit 'ew' ...

The second book which i need is ' Fahrenheit 451' by Ray Bradbury, which i could not find in the American University of Kuwait's Library ;o. Its about 'Book burning' I think thats a good topic, eager to read this one infact.Having read many 'book burning cases' specially of the Harry Potter books' (*Sob*-Crewl) Any comments about these two books? reviews are most welcome.

Oh yes, and i wish they had set the volumes of Harry potter, i could've got a 100% on my summer reading exam... *sighs* , Even the Book of Shadows would have been better.

Hassan Alam . I dont know this guy but he definetly is one talented person.His controlled vocals, The style of his singing has made him the heart of this song and band.His voice really blends in with everything in the song, the suitable drums, the amazing guitar played by Hashim Nauman :).

Myra Iqbal . She is one of the most promising female artists in Pakistan. She has been aninspiration to me ever since i heard her first song, which was a home recording , yet it got me to be her fan.Her voice says it all.Her clear vocals are just too good.She has also done a collaboration with Corduroy the leading band of islamabad,a song called''Follow'' . She has given vocals along side Moby . Moby is one hell of a singer, he knows what he's doing, and Myra has proved herself to sing with him.

Here be the link of her song with corduroy -

Hashim Nauman . I can write and write and write about this friend of mine. A very talented,guitarist from Islamabad, there is no ,NO doubt in saying that he's the soul of this band.Words are by Hashim , guitars are by hashim.The guitar played in this song ( if you deny,you suck) is amazing!.The perfect solo in the end!. This guy has proved to be an inspiration for everybody around him.Specially for me :) .He has taught me alot in life :). I dont exactly know where id be if it wasnt for him,we've known each other for almostt a year now.Glad to have such a friend :).His music comes right from his heart, I feel that Hashim is one person who has seen alot in life. His music is definetly close to him,maybe thats why its so pure.Well at the age of 15 i dont think i can usnderstand the deapth of music as Hashim has.

Yes, i dont know how to give a name to the links here on blogspot *blushes*
