Weekend events

Packed for an overnight stay on Thursday morning hoping things would work out,started late to work.For more than 3-4 days I have been starting late to work.Since traffic is not bad I take advantage of that too.So its been convinient to cook,clean and then be in office a little before 9am.Not having the boss around when you really need that sort of time is such a blessing right now!
Work was quite a bit on Thursday,though i enjoyed burger,fries and juice for lunch-the weekend start was good...mmmm,then headed off to the library,spent more than 1.5 hours reading a fresh book on marketing in the KH library.Nice library,cos no one really comes and i love the idea of having the PC on every desk,making it convenient to simultanously check on the lecture notes.Class began around 1700 hrs expecting to go on till 1900 hrs.Tasks about assignment were discussed and a little before 1900 hrs we were free to go home since it was becoming overload for a week's target and we decided to have more workshops.
I headed off to GSN and RSN's place.I got to drive RSN's X-trail,wow!lot of fun!smooth vehicle and the first 4x4 i drove!:-) JA and Sam called up,then once we got back home we kept asking about the dinner plans.The men as usual ,didnt want to step out,so SG,Rich and me went to Lamcy.Rich wanted to see the DSS events,while that kept him busy we bought him som KFC and we bought chinese for ourselves.It was good fun but kids can be tough and my God very tough at times!Once we got back home,RSN was all set to leave and we watched random stuff on TV until his car came.Once he left GSN played a movie called Yakeen,gosh it was crap!so i slept off and then come next morning we decided to go to a place called Dragon Mart after breakfast.We drove to Jumeirah,they have such beautiful villas out there and specially those that face the beach!Dragon Mart was closed so we explored Nad Al Sheba Club.Amazing place,nice drinks,sports on every TV screen,a beautiful view of the golf course and it had a pond in the centre,simply superb!i tried out Tropical Trio(mixture of kiwi,strawberry and mango) and had tortillas,yummy!then we went home for a nap when SG and me were bent upon watching Parineeta.We caught it at the Ibn Batuta Mall,the place was crowded n we picked up Nachos with salsa and jalepenos!We finished that in the first half of the movie,bought another tray for the next half and thus munched through out the movie.
Oh!the movie,well it was ok.What i enjoyed?well,the classic feel,the clothes,cars,haveli,the jewellery,the Moulin Rouge!LOL!it was all fun to observe,the story wasn't all that great,but the relation pictured was too close to heart to ignore!the 1st half had some pace but all that was lost after the intermission!Rich got his face painted -some bat man kinda thing,eeks.There was a weird act at the mall.A gora had this huge balloon over his head and he was walking around waving his hand....very weird act!
After we got back home had dinner,drive was very tiring and crashed on the bed in no time!

Nice weekend....

Suddenly I feel there's time in my hands....the following thoughts cross my mind... - that model on the cover looks awesome, how is that so? - if they actually airbrush pictures , then how come there is a good looking category? - i want to see a brand new juice in the market,tired of the same old ones... - i feel like shopping often.its more a thought than action. - i like clothes that some other women wears...i want stuff like those! - how come there is traffic only when i want to drive? - water is good for me, very good....keep drinking..has anyone tried flavored water? - is flavored water as good for health? - how come some advertisements are soooo good? is it just one person or a team? - when everyone is busy how come i have time? - how is it that my phone rings only when i want to sleep or when i am occupied? - why do i get tanned so quickly? - how come technology is always surprising to me? - why didn't i get into sports or music when i was younger? - why is it that some ...

Hey!!!

its been a while since we have had some news....s0 here we go, The most famous 22K jeweller ,probably globally,has asked its male employees to shave off their moustaches +facial hair to keep up with their jobs!the examples are set by the owner,himself ,the managers and all the male employees irrespective of the hierarchy!now,i find this news very very interesting!having to look formal is part of most jobs but shaving off moustaches,what formality would it create?does grooming have to go to this extent???what is most capturing is the 'pride' of these men who hail from the land that claims to be 'God's own country' seems to be hit..... So India and Pakistan,i still believe,could be the best neighbours ever,but we have decided to be influenced by political pressures even after all these years!Anyways,the point is while Indian films are "banned" in Pakistan the Indian stars are not!which goes on to show how strong piracy is.so we have ms rai,going over to thei...

The 1969 reunion!

My dad is currently enjoying "retirement", he recently tells me that he is soon having a 1969 college reunion! While just hearing that got me excited, the stories of how he found his college mates after 42 years was even more interesting. To begin with, he bumped into one of them and that kick started the whole process. They chatted about what they have been upto so far in life and if they were in touch with others. From there on, one thing led to another, he tells me. He met up with a few who never left town and stayed on for all these years. Today, they have managed to arrange a gathering of 25 classmates, all this without the involvement of Internet at all! Dad tells me that a couple of never touched a computer! That just concludes that the Internet is overrated and its sad that even if we are equipped with more tools, no one has time for another. So meeting up is pretty much a big deal in today's world. So proud of the 1969 batch!
