but surprisingly i found success to get my I.D card....
as some of you know that in this february here was the elections on 18-Feb ....
my father told me to cast my vote .... i dont want to go to cast ..bcoze i knew that i dont looks like 18 so it could create probleme on polling both ... and it creates some probleme ..but finaly i succed to cast my vote. .. all staff member of polling station was looking on the list again and again .... i realy enjoyed that movement thay was realy amazed  .... but i had my original I.D card so that thet didn't refuse my vote ...

Nice one Umair.

Well, something similar happened to me when I had to travel alone. The lady who issues boarding passes tried to look over my shoulder to see if my guardian was around and I said that I'm flying alone; she was so surprised to hear it, that she almost forgot what to do next. She quickly punched in the details and printed my pass and then I calmly pointed at my bag which she had forgotten to book in the cargo.

Similarly once I was traveling with my cousin in the Holy month of Ramadan. The flight attendant came with a kiddy lunch for me (adults fast) and I said to her that I was fasting. She went away and I dozed off. Later my cousin woke me up showing me a coloring book with crayons and told me that the flight attendant came back and she was so happy and thought I was a little kid who has started fasting for the first time. We both laughed so much and I told him that I should have packed in my graduate degree to show it to her

My surprising moment is more a wonderful experience and that was the day I got to go to Melbourne and meet fellow Thalassaemics like me
Oh and the surprising moment was meeting a customs officer who knew what Thalassaemia is.

Suprising moment for me as a thal :
Yesterday I went for  round of my city ..
When we  was near stadium I saw a  jumping mat type ride in a playland ( a home size baloon type made of hard wragzine  in which children jump .. …) when I was looking at that a sweet memory just came in my mind that’s wat I m going to share with you  people …..

Once my uncle took us to that park I mentioned above …. He bought tickets for that ride….  The ride was only for under the age of 12 yrs … my cousin was near abt 11  yrs old and a little bit faty  … ok .. I was near about 15 yrs old .. can u believe it, that ride incharge stopped my cousin to ride on that …but.  I enjoyed that ride ..hehhehhe . at the time I was laughing  too much .. and my cousin he was saying .. bro u r not under 12 yrs ….and also not eligible  for the ride.. but ride incharge even wasn’t interested to interested to believe on my cousin .. he not ask me abt my age … … 

I m still laughing to remember this moment and cant forget it … when we came back to home … I asked to my cousin ,he stopped yopu to ride on…. tch…tch…tch…
 my cousin was too angry on ride incharge’s decision…. hahhahahha 

Ahem...Ahem.....

It's one of my secret too...

I used to take a lot of advantage of...cough...child ticket....cough.....tariff....ahem......ahem...

Ahem..Ahem.. your secret..Ahem.. is out Sajid

Yeah, those were the good ol' days

Now, I'm stuck in pre-teens! even though I'm 27

your still a baby

compared to me....
your still a baby

if Sajid is still baby in comparison to you ,
then wat i could be ..oh no i won't to b that much young ...i m happy with my current look, mid-teen ager with wisdom teeth like this EEEE ...soo that's why , i dont't want to jum in this  comparison ..

Does all Thal look young?

I look very young for my age too. Alot of people still say i have the boyish 20 old look even tho I am 28.
For me, I think its quite disadvantage at work. 

Thals usually do look much younger, although as you get a little older you may appreciate it more. Take a look at some of the pics in the gallery and you will see some very young looking adults, like our moderator, Sajid.

HI aeonia :
i m also one of those thals, who looks younger , behave's like youngers .... you can see my pic in gallery.. i m 21 years old ..

I got it nice friend... If sajid is a baby compared to me and you are younger.....
then you must be the apple in your mum's eye hehe
Still young.

sorry, i didn't understand please explain it in easy words ....
