This blog is no longer being updated. Last post was “Farewell”.
This is a nice cubicle I am sitting in.
And it would be more nice if the chair I am sitting in could be a little more comfortable. Or the table on which this keyboard is placed could be a little higher so that my knees bruise themselves no more. If the keyboard itself could be more responsive to my fingertips, it would be a bonus. Also, addition of an extra light source could make it a whole lot nicer for my eyes. And in case you haven’t guessed where I am sitting — I am sitting in a ‘cabin’ belonging to an internet cafe.
Past few days have been a roller coaster ride. (By the way, I haven’t had a ride on a roller coaster ever). We shifted to a new house, and are hoping that it would become a home soon. No telephone lines yet in the new thikana, so had to come at this cafe. My knees tell me that I chose the wrong cafe.
On the other hand, we are approaching the end of the current semester at university. Which means assignments, assignments and more assignments. And even more assignments. After you are done with the assignments, you have projects. Projects, projects and more projects. And even more projects. And after you are done with the projects, you have exams. (No, I am not going to write exams, exams and more exams. Were you expecting that?) And after you are done with the exams… drum-roll, please… vacations! So right now all I can imagine is that I’ll be enjoying my holidays after 31st July. They say that you should always have your goal in your mind. I adopt this approach when the goal is the holidays.
Nothing more to write, unless I want to write about that mug which is here right in front of me beside the monitor, and which would have been quite elegant if it had some coffee in it. Right now it contains heaps of cigarette’s ash.

We don’t have what they call rollercoasters in Pakistan, do we? I’ve been to all the amusement parks in Karachi .. all the big and small ones … and they all suck like hell. And ooo … the word ‘cafe’ evokes such bad feelings in me and since you’ve been to one .. I’ll assume you know why!! and yeah, good luck with everythin!!
