It has been quite a long time since i have updated this page!
lots of things has happened and lots of things have kept me busy,
So i present to you my journey to New Zealand!

A pretty View of Dunedin plus it was a good way to pass time in this albatross view *yawns*

aren't they like the cutest things, probably not when they attack you (long story)

These rock formations are the first of its kind i have ever seen, their so HUUGE and the place was freezing cold my hands were bloody burning me when we went back to the car. (word of advice cover ur hands with something warm!)

It was so pretty, we were at the Tazman sea when we saw these seals procrastinating XD
see we have alot in common me and those seals! this was taken during our trip to Doubtful sound.

gorgeous area between Wanaka and Queenstown, we were on our way back from puzzle world!

Passing through on our way to milford sound.

This is a mixture of bordem and a 200mm telephoto lens during 5 am in the morning. yes 2 week into my trip and i was still jet lagged!!

Taken after we came back from horse riding, pretty little area with a small fall.

A walk in a typical forest in New Zealand, can u imagine the place has no sort of snakes or any type of "dangerous" animals, unless u consider me roaming around that place dangerous thats another story XD

The tallest falls in the world, i heard its taller than nigara falls, yeah this is when i decided that it would be best to have a wide angel lens.

this is in Australia, Melbourne my potential next home if i decided to do my MBA's there!

Auckland from the airplane, aint it preeeety.

yet another product of being jet lagged, this was taken 4 am in the morning.
I was just trying to make the time pass by fast i was HUNGRY XD (i know u guys arent surprised)

The dark tazman sea pretty rough waters out there

Auckland, New Zealand. yet another of the the beach that overlooks the tazman sea.
I miss New Zealand already
*sniff*

"ZE GERMANS ARE COMING!"

Mood Extremely happy!
Listening to Zombie by the Cranberries

Fundamentals of Financial Management, A course I have been dreading and I have finally finished! It was my final and i had decided to put all my effort and concentrate and really study hard.

Chapter 10, The cost of Capital, After reading the chapter, I Began Answering the Questions * Remember I have to concentrate on every single word*

I reached question 10 and i read the question and guess whos name i read!
Klose! Coincedince? Maybe but it was Funny it deff made me smile remebering the German soccer team. Then it became abit to creapy!

Ballack! okay so maybe i thought to myself those may be pretty popular names in Germany then I read the last question and I finally had my answer

Well khan isn't exactly a popular German name, the guy who wrote the book just love the German's!

See I was doing my part of the job while studying, I concentrated! Maybe Over concentrated but what the heck im done now *dances*

Another Surprising Adventure in my boring life!
Yet another exciting day at uni! (Sense the sarcasm in the tone), I finally managed to take my camera to university ( Meaning i wasn't lazy anymore and managed to carry it to uni). I asked my econ classmate(whom i did not force , let me repeat did NOT force or THREATEN) if it was okay to just have an hour of just taking pics and guess what XD! HE didn't mind! (being nice pays off sometimes) Anywhoos here's the photo shoot.

Let me introduce you to Ghanim XD

Aww spontaneous photographs! my favorite, seriously it manages to just capture the person right emotion

and refrains from very awful poses like this one right here

AND HERE.

I prefer my pics this way, just looking normal.

aww, the first time i actually witness him even deeply thinking of something...
wait..there was this...okay Scratch that out..never mind lemme go on

Back to looking normal and taking pics of Ghanim laughing.

I think this is my favorite so far, the image is really sharp and looks pretty normal to me

I'm not a mind reader, but this face expression, Well, Ill let you judge (I KNOW! I ACTUALLY MANAGED TO KEEP MY OPINIONS TO MYSELF)

And lest i will leave you all with a word of advice, Anorexia Seriously, it doesn't work for all.

After Eid we decided to visit our farm once again! Believe it or not I was actually anticipating it! (If you know me, the farm isn't what I would call paradise)
BUT the main reason I wanted to go was to use my moMy camera and give DSLR a try XD

My Daddy Decided to Take a new Road, lucky for me!

Look at those pretty colors

*screams* freaks Camel came out of nowhere and is staring at me!!

I ask my Dad To speed Away before the Camel Stalks us! We reach the farm the coast is clear! NO CAMEL!

My Sister gets down to open the Door and she was in for a surprise!

UNSUSPECTED ANGRY TURKEY BEHIND HER!

SHE FREAKS OUT! And JUMPS!

later decided to put her self defense classes into act
(the biggest mistake of her life!)

MORE TURKEYS CAME OUT OF NOWHERE!

just when I thought she couldn't get any stupider
