*airtel ring*
I am fast asleep…
“ uff, where the hell is my
mobile”
I dive inside my quilt and
emerge with a ringing cell phone.
^irfan calling^
“God, what’s wrong with him?”
I mutter to myself before receiving the call.
Ifran: “hello zainab, so rahi
thi? There is a conference in Serena. Let’s all go there.”
Le me: “uh what? Umm… ok… let
me wash my face n teeth”
One part of me wanted to say
NO and go back to being a sleeping beauty and the other, *normal* part dragged
me out of the warm bed to get ready.
OK! What to wear. I pull out
my jeans and with that a dull greenish colored shirt which had RED in it. Red handbag, red coat and red shoes ;)
Looking at myself half an
hour later, I give a very satisfied smile to my image and walk outside to find
my class fellows waiting for me to go together.
I had never seen Serena
before and to be honest never given it a thought. The funny part is that when I
entered that beautiful edifice, I hardly felt that it’s the first time I am
here or that its one of the most expensive places in Pakistan
To be comfortable with your
own self is the best thing in the world.
From there, Ahmed asked :
“now where?”
Le me: “Actually, I have
never seen Pakistan
Everybody stared at me… and
they burst into laughter .
Le me: “ I am serious guys”
So we went to see the
beautiful Monument. Without a doubt it is an awesome piece of art. The concept is very innovative and location is perfect. However, it was sad to see that
it is failing to serve the purpose for people of the land, which is to develop
a sense of pride and nationality.
I have always dreamt of
sitting on a high place from where I can just look at the world wide in front
of me with loads of wind blowing and no thoughts at all.. I guess I lived that
moment yesterday!
Anyway, Kashif wanted to
bowl.
And to be honest, I loved the
game. Rolling the ball to get the bottles ( or whatever they are called) down.
:D
Being the only girl in the
group, I served the purpose of my
presence. ~to loose so that the male egos stay boosted :p ~
Anyway 83 score when I was
rolling the ball first time ever in my life, I deserve some credit guys.
Grabbing the Icecream , we
headed to the most peaceful place I have ever been to.
Evening was falling.. and
there I was sitting on a wood bench in the middle of a lush green garden. That
was captivating. Mesmerizing, the beauty of nature and that moment..
And then I saw the most
amazingly cute dog! He was a BIG BIG Labrador
and I envied the owner. He was nothing but a big sweetheart. I wanted to go
near him but sesly, his size scared me :/ .. a little..
I wanted the time to just
stop there.. or at least pause.. I wanted to live that beauty, the peace, the serenity..
the feeling of being watched, guided…
But too bad we had our
economics class at 6 o’clock so we headed back to uni.
By the time, we started
studying I was literally dying to get hold of some sleep. Thanks heavens, it was our last class and
there wasn’t much to study so I managed to take a nap and then a cup of tea
totally refreshed me.
I was busy playing hang the
man with my class and teacher when samreen came in. a little breathless from
brisk walking :P
Samreen: “I need you for
sometime. Please excuse yourself”
All the love to mam seemi
that she let me go, happily.
Le me : “yes samreen”
samreen: “ let’s go get a cup
of coffee, talal is here too”
le me: “ok! Waise b, seems
like m on the run today. Let’s go”
and a cup of coffee with good
company was worth it J
and thus, the day ended..
I don’t know why people say
that boys don’t make good friends or girls are not fully sincere with each other..
If someone has these deteriorating concepts, please come and meet me.
Its not about your gender,
its all about your heart.
I have seen girls and boys
who were devils in disguise alike and I have been lucky to meet the most
amazing people in the world.
And I believe a portion of
this depends upon you too. If you have a clean heart, you will find good
people. And most of all, you can be that good person in some one’s life. After
all, you can’t control others, but you have a full authority over yourself and
your actions J
Just be good to people , they
deserve it.
And most of all, you deserve
to be the person you are meant to be… don’t trade yourself for something less
than this !
