The last straw

You know I always try be friendly with everyone.......the good guy, the diplomat, the guy who doesnt take things seriously, his sweet he wont mind.....but im done with that. I am through being nice to people and just being stepped on repeatedly because im the good nice guy...and he wont mind. Being nice and honest is a complete waste? I dont know yet maybe you can tell me. Ok you can see this is a ranting post, its been bugging me and well as the topic says this is the final straw.

No matter what happens between people I feel that just as a common courtesy you should atleast greet and inquire if they are ok....you know be polite. But it seems that being polite and having manners especially in the Indian muslim community is a waste. Its not looked at as something to value but as something to take advantage of. If someone is nice you push them as far as you can because you know they won’t retaliate. Having manners is the exception not the norm. Im not saying that im a bastion of civility but atleast I try and refrain from being rude and stepping over people to get ahead in life or just for the heck of it because its fun.

I met some "people" (they are not human) the other day that I havent seen in a long time. Now they not what I would call my friends nor people I would willingly associate with ...wait I would never associate with them even if you threatened to stick a steak knife which is on fire into my eye. So since I knew them as a courtesy a decided to greet and make small talk, the last time ever do that. This one person in particular is the most childish, immature person I have ever come across and I hate the fact that I ever got to know this person. His rich and married and what not but the man is a complete jackass and because im still studying there is something wrong with me. It was as if I was transported to a place where idiots reign........hmmmm or have I always been in this place. And why was I subjected to this fool, because im nice, bleh.

This next paragraph wont flow

You can be the sweetest most caring good guy, that would do anything for a person but that means squat. You can be the guy thats "perfect" that is not like the norm that is different and that treats women with the respect and decency they deserve and it will mean nothing. You can be thoughtful, considerate, and understanding yet you are nothing more than some guy. You will be there for them at a drop of a hat and you will be willing to rip your heart out for them, but it would be a waste of blood and effort. You could do nothing wrong but you will still be kicked in the teeth and left stranded in some vortex of nothingness. Im tired of waiting, im tired of being patient and im tired of never having the chance, or rather im never given the chance.

But as much as I say im tired and contemplate changing and being something that im not...thats the thing I cant be something that im not so I will remain the way I am for that is who I am. People who know me well know that im much more friendlier and bubbly, I talk alot...too much at times.... and well I have broken the last remnants of my shell that shackled me for so long( oh boy now dont I sound all deep and wise).

I will be patient, I will still be the good guy, I will still have my manners and I will still be polite but i am well aware of the fact that

IT SNOWED!!!!


My back yard covered in snow

Then they arrived...a hula snow girl and her cabana boy..strange you will agree.

He seemed the better of the two...they just stood there the entire day looking out at the horizon waiting..it was fascinating to watch...

I have finally seen snow...I am blessed....keep in mind those homeless people. The snow was not a beauty but a death and a hardship.

Post Exam Rant......Durbs?

So the dust settles on yet another exam period. Like an atomic bomb the period before it goes off is filled with anxiety and dread then the bomb goes off and you are caught up in the shockwaves and the deafening silence, left to do nothing but wait for the blast to stop and for the dust to finally settle. I dont know if that made sence but as the topic states this is merely a collection of words in sequence...basically a post exam rant.

Ok so due to fatima's dislike of my Exam updates I stopped them, though I really didnt have time to post anything because I was so busy studying. I calculated that I studies around 10hours a day! Yet I still get such shocking marks.........there is a difference between being intelligent and working hard, im a hard worker. Hope the hard work pays off.

Last week was hecticly hectic! I really didnt think I was going to get through it and went completely blank in one paper (so wrote that off). I wrote final paper today, was tough but I survived. However after the paper i got invited to a good law firm for vacation work, so was really happy about that. The Almight has this nack that when everything seems to be going down the drain HE manages to give you something that makes it all worth it, it could be a new opportunity, a new friend, just something anything that reminds you that you are blessed. So guys my exams are over but please make dua that I do really well :) thanks

So I to have been suffering from P.I.S (Priority Inversion Syndrome) however I have been pissing alot, not pissing and moaning, actually urinating, however thats because of the cold and not a weak bladder. Ok this post not making sense so let me say what I wanted to say:

"I have a dream that one day this nation.......hehe no not really lol im not going to give a speech lol

Ok I got to announce this officially I think its good good news well im looking forward to it:

The Kman in his official capacity as JHB blog emissary and as a friend will be coming to

DURBAN

Yes the Kman (I got to stop refering to myself in the third person) will be in durban from the 29th to june to the 2nd of july. Hopefully I can meet up with some of the durbs bloggers and we can have ourselves a good old fashion blog meet :) Looking forward to it :)

The Kman is coming to durbs

Exam Update: "Property Now"

Im suppose to be studying criminal law now but blogging is far more realxing and I need to calm my nerves, anyone who has done criminal law will sympathize with me....if you dont then I hope your Actus Reas and Mens Reas dont coincide and you have to prove contempreneity (yes a lawyer thing)

Ok so an update on my property paper which I wrote yesterday....well you know when you have pins and needles in your legs or your arms and its so uncomfortable and a painful that you cant move and just want it to stop and stretch out...................well this paper was nothing like that :) I was able to answer the theory questions well, I wont do amazingly good but I will pass. Inshallah Make dua.

However funny thing happened whilst I was studying. Well in certain cases parties are Applicants v Respondents (I wont go into any detail) and in the explanation of the cases the parties are refered to in short as "A" and "R". So im studying and when I read "R instituted a rei vindicatio" and My mind flew to blogging and in particular "r from Rhymes with Silver. Lol know im mad but thanks for the laugh and the moments break r :)

Paper: Property Law

Outcome and potential Damage: Not as painful as a tooth extraction or as gentle as a bunny rabbit

Question of the day: Mandament van spolie just rolls of the tongue in such a pleasant manner dont you think?

Song that played my mind: 30 seconds to Mars - The story

Annoyance
of note : A winnie mandela impersonator sitting infront of me....I was expecting stompie to jump out of that head gear...and scream IM BACK!


This next week is hectic, succession on tuesday @2, criminal on wednesday @8 and criminal procedure on friday @2
.... hope I can survive.........

Exam Update: "The Civil Inquisition"

Ok I cant stay away from blogging so shoot me or sue me! (Just use the correct procedure......ok thats a civil procedure attempted joke....ok I should stop and close this bracket...)

So I wrote civil procedure today and honestly I have no clue why but I didnt feel this nervous for a paper since matric maths (I hate numbers....here I go with the damn brackets)....I was scared literally shitless. I assumed the worse and was panicking. Guess its an important subject and I need to do well in it in order to be a good lawyer/liar so maybe thats the reason. So I went to write at 8 this morning and im calmed my nerves with some classic FM and just getting into the mode and then you get people who ask you indepth questions 5 minutes before the paper...AAAAAAAH.... I hate that, you stressing and the information in your head is spinning around like a tornado and you can barely remember your name but this person asks you something that not even steven hawkings can theorise about. The last thing you need is someone confusing your already confused mind.

This is really a pointless discourse. Im just a bloggerholic :P

Paper: Civil Procedure

Outcome and potential Damage: Better than expected , actually enjoyed the challenge, Damage to my temporal lobe

Question of the day: What the hell is an edictual citation and why am I suddenly in a mood for a tuna sandwich?

Song that played my mind: Beethoven's 5th symphony in C minor and Tchaikovsky - Swan Lake

C
onversation of note :
x- whats your next paper?
me- property law
x- so do you learn the law of property and stuff and how to build houses?
me- I got to go.


Well have another update soon.....keep checking
