Sehar, I hope your bio exam went well Insha’Allah.


So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another / Only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence ~ Henry W. Longfellow

well it’s that time again (exam time) so I am again wasting my time finding images to post that no one besides myself and the Mods will view. Derived from the National Geographic website.

Sentinels resisting the force of waves, sea stacks off the coast of Washington are all that remain of accreted sedimentary land that was fused onto the continent during subduction. At the end of the Ice Age, when glaciers melted, rising seas eroded all but the hardest rock [NG, 1998]

Braving a September snowstorm, guide Barry Ferguson makes a cautious descent from Banff’s high country. Ferguson prefers mules over packhorses, he says, ‘because a mule looks and thinks before he steps’ [NG, 1995]

Yeah, exam time is here once again and I am wasting my time as well viewing the pics you have posted.

The stone spires off Victoria’s coast are called the Twelve Apostles [NG, 1998]

A camel, a wombat, and a kangaroo cross the road: It sounds like the setup for a joke, but there was nothing funny about the Eyre Highway. The main link between Western and South Australia, the route stretches for 800 miles [1290 kilometers] across the Nullarbor Plain but has only 11 roadhouses along the way. While I [writer Roff Martin Smith] reveled at times in the solitude and the company of brightly winged parrots and other wild creatures, the place is so empty it can be truly unsettling. Out here, no one could hear a cry for help. [NG, 1998]

**“Deep in Borneo, a male orangutan we [anthropologist Cheryl Knot and assistants] call Jari Manis feeds on wild ginger stems as he keeps an eye on a female he’s been shadowing. My team of assistants and I track the elusive apes from dawn to dusk, when they bed down in a nest in the trees. Mixing modern science with old-fashioned fieldwork, we are breaking new ground in understanding how wild orangutans have adapted to their rain forest home.” **[NG, 1998]

**“The limestone walls of Neversink, a 162-foot-deep open-air pit, provide habitat for a rare fern. ‘The frontiers,’ wrote Henry David Thoreau, ‘are not east or west, north or south, but wherever a man fronts a fact.’”

LOOOOL.

Thanks for making me laugh - it’s 4 am and not a single soul to talk to here.

awesome stuff

i almost emptied that national geographic site with pretty much all pics it had. and theres still tons of em there! heh

:--)
Its 2am here and I have like 7 souls to talk to, but apparently none is interested; all of them are like glued to their computer screens.

so like how do you identify this symptom that pushes us towards GS when its just a few hours before an exam? cuz it happened to me last night

http://www3.pak.org/gupshup/smilies/tongue.gif

i think its cuz of an exam that we dont like at all and want to avoid it as much as possible??
