By Mariam Saeed Khan, our ambassador at Next Generation Pakistan Why is the word becoming increasingly popular day by day? Why is load shedding getting the fame? Why are all the parties playing “paid-content” advertisements? All these questions occurred into my mind while switching through television channels for an hour. After that it was all “black”. No light. And then my inappropriate love for the past government increased. It is increasing with the number of hours people have to deal with while working or sleeping. With the dead batteries of UPS, the generators rusting for...

Well, he did. “Man, I can’t wait to read another year-end best-of list!” - Nobody. Ever. And with that cheerful thought, welcome to part one of the Best And Worst of 2012.

Reality Check: Manners Please!

By Zainab Asim “Self analysis, every once in a while, is very healthy for our development and growth as human beings and as a society on the whole’’, so began the abstract of an article I recently read. Reading this automatically made me ponder over the state of our nation. There’s no doubt that we are a very warm blooded, hospitable and brave nation. But as every country has its set of shortcomings, we also have quite a plethora of them. And today, I want to focus on just that. Not talk about what we are victims of, but to try and analyze ourselves and our behavior. I strongly believe in recognizing our wrongs, embracing them...

He is currently preparing for SATs by wasting time, writing articles and watching Ishq-e-Mamnu. If you haven’t heard, there is a new sensational drama in town. Word is that the Turkish soap opera ‘Aşk-ı Memnu’ (or Ishq-e-Mamnu) has brought in a new sense of drama within the women folk of Pakistan. Another rumor follows that it has become the new excuse employed by its avid fans “Ishq-e-Mamnu lag gaya hai, kal baat karein ge”. One can understand why women watch it,...
