October 22th. 2008, Entry from a long forgotten diary. Three years ago, as the brisk October sky whispered the start of a long winter and the lushe greenery of Islamabad turned vermillion, a bunch on students made their way to a cozy little room at the far side of a long familiar corridor.

https://ussamanaveed.wordpress.com/2012/08/15/to-jubilees-and-gratitude
Pakistan Illustrated-An Illustrators view of life in Pakistan. To Jubilees and Gratitude. I would like to start this post with a little prayer for those whom I’ve lost over the years and I would like to extend this prayer to anyone you had known and/or had once loved (even if was only their Idea). Because not many would and because it’s dangerous to blurt everything that comes to your mind and it’s more dangerous to your own self than to anyone else. Today or yesterday as I’m a day late was my 24. You ar...

Pakistan Illustrated-An Illustrators view of life in Pakistan. Month: September, 2011. September 9, 2011. Big Brother and the Tattletale. An Opinion on Wikileaks. The diplomatic community has received the website with a warm, heartfelt middle finger whereas the world of journalism has found it as its scapegoat. But Wikileaks’ jamboree of ratting out is not the revolution. The revolution here is the ‘idea’ of transparency of information that the website strives for. And it is this idea and it’s im...These...

Pakistan Illustrated-An Illustrators view of life in Pakistan. Month: August, 2011. August 28, 2011. Tweets Against The Feeds! Potentials of the Social Networks. In 1998 a little known search engine appeared on our Internet Explorers and NetScape Browsers… With a silly looking webpage. And an absurd sounding name none of us, except maybe a few bigwigs at Silicon Valley, could have foreseen how huge Google would one day become. So are social networks the next big thing? In my opinion any website that can ...

Pakistan Illustrated-An Illustrators view of life in Pakistan. Is a military intervention the best option for Karachi? Are the rangers, the police and the Political Parties prepared for this massive clean-up? And what are the economical ramifications if this eight month long wave of violence is left to worsen? To bring yourself up to speed with what has lead to these times I highly recommend you read the article ‘The Political Dance of Death’. Feel Free to express your views here. August 24, 2011.

Pakistan Illustrated-An Illustrators view of life in Pakistan. Month: July, 2012. July 24, 2012. Bull-shit [sic] to solve the gas shortage of Punjab! Can cow-droppings solve our gas problem?

Pakistan Illustrated-An Illustrators view of life in Pakistan. To Those Who’ve Never Made A Nickel! Her grin widens as I hand her one of the paper cups. We reciprocate a good laugh for what can hardly be counted as an achievement; procuring free cups of juice. But we’re new here at this college and a little juice-stand handing out free samples in the middle of a rainy day is like a child’s first step for us. It’s exhilarating! But deep down inside it’s only my cowardice of stepping out of my comfort zone...
