Pretty Much Off-the-wall

As tagged by Inspirex 

I am pretty much sane but when deviate and act wacky exhibit following bizarre behavior:

• My colleagues get sore feet on international trips; brothers always refuse to tag along, mom n dad get irritated when it comes to shopping with me. I am being pegged as shopaholic whether real or window, I exude tremendous energy for this activity. 

• Hollywood movies which r big time flop at box office are close to my heart.

• I need a glass of water after having something sweet and I go for sprite zero with cheese burger or fried chicken or fish. My family and friends have objection on having diet drink. They don’t get my smart strategy that by having diet drink I am cutting off my calories. 

• I don’t put sugar in tea & coffee. I like to retain the strong & original taste of tea n coffee as sugar makes it lil weird.

• I am obsessed with colorful shopping bags esp of Kaadi, Threads, Kids, Zara, Mango, H&M, Giordano. I have kept many shopping bags under my mattress, safe n sound.

• I don’t answer missed phone calls, sms, and emails. All my friends hate me for that but I am not rude or arrogant. I believe I am kinda communication shy.

In retrospect, 2006

2006 was a splendid year for me and I am thankful to God for making the year so peaceful n sound for me & my family. I didn’t plan anything special for the year as I am a person who goes with the flow and takes whatever comes my way. God was kind enough n blessed me with peace, happiness, new friends, international trips, etc.

Going down the memory lane of 2006, my best friend got married and interestingly she also became mother of a baby boy. Another close friend was hitched to a guy whom she loved from last eight years and a dear college friend tied knot with handsome doctor.

Thanks to my job which is darn amazing as it gave me marvelous opportunity to travel to exotic places like Bahrain, Dubai, Frankfurt, Cologne, Hanover & Paris. All the trips were stupendous and a great learning experience.

I made few good friends and celebrated my 25th birthday with them. Also reunited with old buddies and on their encouragement started blogging. I even tried my hands on playing squash which was so refreshing and enthralling .

The most exciting thing that gave me real pleasure was my elder brother‘s admission in LUMS & my bhabi’s job at IBM. Both r samrt lot and i take pride in thier roaring success.

The year aslo unfolded IDEAS 2006 through which I met so many different people & made some indelible memories. The handshake with President Pervaiz Musharaf was also a riveting moment of 2006.

Other things which I enjoyed during last year were reading WINNING by Jack Welch, watching MI3 on big screen, having Starbucks in Dubai n Frankfurt, COSTA coffee in khi and shopping in Frankfurt, Dubai n Paris.

All in all 2006 was a rocking year…..
