eMule Server List

I’ve been having problems with my server list, they keep disappearing. After sometime, my downloads reaches 0.0 and when checking my servers, the window is empty!

I update the server list by clicking on help, it opens the eMule project website, The Server Window, and you’ll find a link that’ll direct you to websites to find eMule servers, or you can Google it, but this is a better way to ensure you are connecting to legitimate eMule servers and not some spammers. Click on any of the websites and then search for the link that’ll add servers to your eMule.

That solved my problem temporarily, because after a couple of days the servers disappear!

You can configure your eMule to update the server list automatically.

Go to Options -> Server, in the update section increase the number of retries before removing the dead server, mine was set to 1 so I increased it to 9. Click on the list button and add these two links which I got from the server list website and save it:

http://www.gruk.org/server.met.gz

http://peerates.net/servers.php

You can see other options that you can set according to your needs.

Rania: Isn’t this illegal … the downloads

Me: I’d like to think of it as it’s the Cyper world’s way to pay me back for being such a dedicated …

Rania: oh, shut up!

Happy eMuling! :D

Faj3a Day

Hungry

Hungry

Every Wednesday, is our faj3a day for roro and I. This has been going for sometime now.

There comes a time, when only JUNK food satisfies your hunger ;) No matter how much grilled, sautéed, boiled you digest, there’s still something calling for more, more of something different, something greasy, something that transfers you to a higher place from the first bite after so many days of deprivation.

On days like these, plans are made a week ahead ;P

OK, can we go to Tikka, then McDonald’s then chocolate bar for desserts … I think we can ;)

This week, the eid break, I have stuffed myself to the fullest, I couldn’t sleep yesterday from the tummy ache I had. Starting tomorrow insha’Allah, body detoxification process will be initiated.

And we decided that on our next faj3a day, we’ll try, emphasis on try, to go to a healthy place to avoid the painful agony after a full greasy meal!

Google Translate

I use Google Translate quite a bit, I just noticed they added a new feature (swap) which is great. I always confuse if I’m translating from English to Arabic or the other way around ;P

Also, now I can switch quickly between the two languages, it’s just wonderful.

Eid Thoughts

عيدكم مبارك

Still laying in bed after our traditional breakfast. I haven’t decided what to wear yet!! Which is weird and I’m cool about it. I’d call my sister, if she were here, she would’ve picked something for me, which I couldn’t put together in a couple of weeks -see the progress ;P- I just have to pick out something from the pile of clothes I have laying around, can I wear jeans ??

Got to get off my butt and dress before some crying comes my way ;)

Enjoy the holidays, because most definetly I AM :D

Don’t know whether to feel sorry for the person, sad or angry.

People who try to prove a point that no one seems to know what it is … except them!

Do we care?

Maybe at some point in our younger lives, but now, the care seems to fade away … bit by bit eating up itself

A piece of me has been taken away, a cheerful part of me, you’re letting the darkness consume me, not caring about anything in the world except for your world in which you only exist!

I try to find the good in me that was because of you, but it’s getting harder and harder everyday.

Why is it that you flourish over pity and sorrow? What’s so luring about it?

When will be the time that you let go? That you come down of your highend place! A place where you’re always right and worshiped. Will the day ever come?

I don’t care!

Too bad you can’t see the people we are, we are good people, despite our flaws and errors, we are good people.

Too bad, as each day goes by, we drift away farther. But then again, we were never close.

Too bad, that you choose to overlook the good and focus on the bad in all of us.

We’re not perfect, but neither are you.

It’s all a grand play, when there is an audeience, you perfect your role and when there isn’t … back to the harsh cold reality

I just want to go away, maybe I’ll see something understand something I’m not by being close to you

But just like I welcome the darkness and the depression that comes along with it, I believe you love the drama of it all, the good thing is, each time, fewer people are playing along in your over-played charade

Too bad you never see the good in us all

Shopping with the Bros

I like taking my lil brothers shopping, well they’re not exactly little anymore, masha’allah each one is towering way over my short figure

This is how I like to view why they ask me to take them shopping

  • They just LOVE their big sister :)
  • They enjoy shopping with me and my taste in clothes -LOL, I’ve to take my lil sister to correct my taste in clothes!!-
  • They like spending time with me

But in reality, I think this is how they view it

  • Just in case we run short on cash
  • She can go around and around, indulge our mood swings and tolerate our behaviour
  • She gets us treats, coffee, cake, smoothies and whatever main meal

hmmm, that’s about all that I can think of. As they get older, they start going out with us less. They prefer to spend time with their friends and cousins. So whatever time they graciously throw upon me, I take it :D

My old job was demanding … or I thought so ….

until my new job!

My new job is demanding …

Is it me … or seriously jobs are demanding!!

Can’t I trade for a month, a goverment job, 6 hours workday or is it 5? I want to sit and do nothing, read a book or surf the net

I’m tired and looking forward to this holiday and to sleeeepppping, need so much of that!

I know our employees will be working in the weekend and if I get called, it’s going to be the employee’s last phone call on this earth, because I’ll personally see that they cross to the other side!!

See how much I need a holiday ;)
