Cross roads of destiny...

I’m leaving pretty soon and I just thought I’d share something with you guys. I’m pretty nervous and excited about going and at the same time I can hardly imagine how much I’m gonna miss everything here. This is my home, where I was born and raised, educated and where I have friends. I never actually thought that this day would come so quickly. I’ve learned a lot here, I found love here and though nothing has been perfect, I learned to smile through those imperfections.

I have been hiding something from you guys and I’m sorry that if anyone feels that I should have shared this with them earlier. The truth is, since a very young age, I’ve always wanted to run away. Problem is I never actually knew why or where to. Funny isn’t it?

However, now I do have reasons and I guess I’ve got a place to go to. I want to prove myself, test my limits to see what I’m capable of. I want to re-discover myself, experience new things and to feel what it means to color ones dreams. I’ve always felt that here at home, someone or something, I dunno, suppresses me somehow, you know, stops me from reaching the stars.

Then again, when I ask myself what is the purpose of all these dreams, the purpose of going through some stupid training or something, I go all blank. It makes me laugh when I end up at a closed road with a tall brick wall saying “dead end”. Can’t help thinking that I’ve got to break through, spread my wings, fly high up into the sky and soar through the clouds. Sounds like a Disney cartoon right? Anyway with so many answers to find and so much knowledge to gain, I’m not going to fritter away this opportunity which I got thanks to almighty Allah.

I’ll keep you guys updated through my blog about this whole new journey which I’m going to undertake starting 24th this month. I don’t know when I’ll be posting the next post, but do keep in touch. So with tears of joy in my eyes, I say “bismillah” and start walking towards the boulevard of destiny. I’ve already started missing you guys…

Song Dedication...

To my best friend,




To my dearest popsy,






To my dearest Swyts,





To my dearest Bubbly,





To all my "parliament" friends,



And to all of you put together,


A totally "obi" song!

("obi" means awesome in Dhivehi) This is a fantastic song...But I dedicate it to no one, 'cause I have no one to dedicate this song to...Hope you guys enjoy...

06 - ONE - 09'


The day might have passed, but I sure will treasure every moment of that day. It was one of those days that rarely come by. I'm n longer 18, my friends made sure t make a point out of that. Hmmm....19...It feels like...I dunno...I can't express my feelings with mere words.

When I became 18, I let out all my feelings under the setting sun, standing on a rock beached in the lagoon. When I became 19, I wanted to do something new. So I actually decided to be just me for the day, simple, quiet, doing something useless and away from other people. But, my friends had something else in mind.

Just as the same as last year, they gave me a surprise party, which of course was master minded by non other than Ads, my best friend, popsy, my "to-be-sister-in-law", swyt, my lawfully wedded text mate, and last but not least, bubbles, one of those rare people whom I share my feelings with. A couple of my classmates attended too...To be honest, I was very surprised. I didn't know what to say and I can't thank them enough for making me so special. I received two presents, actually 3! Two from bubbles and one from my "name twin", Ximna.

I had my farewell last night, was pretty awesome meeting with long time buds from kindergarten, family and relatives. I received awesome presents. Once again I can't tell them what it means to me to have received such special gifts. I earned loads of stuff when I was 18 and I got so many new experiences. It was amazing to be 18. And so, as someone reminded me on my birthday, the last 365 days as a teenager has begun...

Oh, and guys, I'll always be there for you...
