In retrospect, 2006

January 11, 2007

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…..

    COSTA isnt that good. Try caribou coffee! May be I like them because they let me use internet for an hour every time I order a cuppa and that is just an excuse to wait till the next movie is put up at the grand! Still :D
