Random

It seems like yesterday that I turned 26, oh wait, it was yesterday :P

I was really surprised at the number of people that wished me. And some of them were really unexpected. One downfall, I was really sleepy in Sehri coz of all the wishes that continued from midnight and NO treat for anyone this year coz who gives a treat on getting OLD(er)?

The weather is extremely hot in Karachi these days and I heard that the temperature had never gone up so much in the last 37 years. May Allah keep all of us safe and sound, ameen.

Keep blogging friends.

Happy Independence Day

Wishing all of you a very Happy Independence Day.

I know our country is going through tough times but I believe that we are all blessed to be living in a free country.

Pakistan Zindabad :)

Sharing

I have slowly cut off myself from so many people that even though I have a lot of friends, I have no one with whom I can share things.

Sometimes there are things which you can share only with your most special friends and (un)fortunately I've lost all of them.

This stupid post is just to let you know that I miss you... really miss you badly.

Rain

Is it just me or have you noticed too that the weather has been just awesome these days. The weather in the morning is as if it would rain any minute.

I am waiting so anxiously for rain to come. It seems like it has been ages since Karachi had its share of rain. And according to some bizarre rule, I can't have mangoes until it has rained :(

I don't know why but it seems as if the days are passing by very very slowly. I though it was Friday today but still one more day to go for the weekend.

My friend finally left for Dubai and surprisingly I am not missing her at all. I thought I would, I thought it would be hard to go through the day but I am surprised at how I feel right now. It is as if nothing has happened. there is no sense of loss.

Anyways, please pray that it rains and rains and rains. I think we all deserve to be out there enjoying Allah's rehmat :)

Take care people, keep smiling and keep blogging.

Just an observer

I recently went to Multan, Muzaffargarh, Hyderabad and Lahore. The trip was nice and I had fun, but there is one odd thing that I felt.

For the first time in my life I felt home sick, I felt alone and this is something that has never happened to me. I prefer to be alone and I think of myself as an anti social person (which my friends will never agree on). I have never before felt alone in my life even when I was alone. this was a very VERY strange feeling for me and I can't really describe it.

I don't actually know what triggered it because I've gone through a lot in the past few months. And to add to it, my best friend, someone who has really helped me a lot is now shifting to Dubai forever and I mean FOREVER!! :(

Sometimes, life does such things to you that you become just an observer and see things happen in your life with no control over them.

Anyways, thanks to all of you who have been praying for me, please keep on praying, I am always in need of prayers.

Take lots of care, keep smiling and keep blogging.

Trip

Last week, I had a chance to visit Islamabad after almost ten years. Me and three of my colleagues flew from Karachi on Thursday at 1900hrs and reached Islamabad at 2200hrs. We checked in our rooms and went for a walk and dinner to Jinnah Market, came back at around 0030hrs and went to sleep. woke up at 0600hrs, had breakfast, attended the meeting and went to Rawalpindi to catch the Daewoo Bus to Lahore at 1900hrs. We reached Lahore at 2230hrs, checked in to our rooms and had dinner. We slept at 0230hrs and woke up again at 0830hrs to go to Pakpatan which is a 3.5 hours drive from Lahore. Pakpatan has the "Door to Heaven" and the shrine of a famous sufi saint. We came back from Pakpatan at around 1700hrs and then went to Data Darbar in Lahore, offered Maghrib prayers there and then had dinner at a restaurant called Dera. Slept at 0030hrs, woke up at 0730hrs, caught the flight back to Karachi and came back home at around 1400hrs on Sunday.

I had the chance to see how beautiful Pakistan is and how wonderful its people are. The trip was completely full of fun and extremely exhausting. However, its memories will always remain with me because I had a really good time :) (even though the way I've narrated it, it seems as if it was really dull and boring, haina? :p)

And I don't know if I should tell this or not, but I prayed for most of you by name at Data Darbar. I wish and pray that may all of you prosper and find happiness in your lives, ameen.

And the thing I was doing in my last post is changing my job after three years. Please pray that everything goes well, inshaAllah.

Take lotsa care and keep smiling :)
