Crazyyyyy Weekend!

Long weekends are pretty chillin' usually... not this time!

Friday, was Sahar's cousins' wedding! She looked amazing... and sooo happy mash'Allah... which made her look even more beautiful... awwww! And can i jus say, WAH... his sherwani was gorgeous (Sahar's vocabs rubbin off on me :S), it was like Shah Rukh Khan's sherwani in Mahi Ve (except it was a golden-brown)... and trust me not any guy could jus pull it off, but Zubaer totally did. The food was really good.. Mmmmm butter chicken... her bro is jus hilarious, so we all knew when it was time for his contribution to the wedding, it would be worth the wait.. and that it was. He made this video bout Seema, and disclosed all the deep down, dirty secrets... what made this video hilarious was the person he had play her. Their 6'3 bro-in-law, Najeeb with a mustache that can be seen miles away (I'm not hating, i swear!)... btw, Seema is this tiny lil thing bout 5'1... it was hilarious!! Esp, the part where "she" gives a cousin an ass-whupping.. and the interrogation scene at the police station.. LOL.. a classic! Can't wait to see what he's got planned for bro's wedding... [Ahhhh only 2 months away insh'Allah!!!]

Saturday, was Bro's Dholki! Complete and utter chaos... woke up at 9 (yo that's early!) cleaned up the place, finished decorating... the place looked hot!!! The basement was covered with dupattas and saris and streamers... my bro had better work his butt off for my wedding!! All the while sneezing like a maniac... and stupid bro took all the Claritin with him on his camping trip... felt like strangling him!! Anywho, I was still getting ready when the first of the guests showed up :O... got dressed and dolled up finally... Ammi made me wear this lilac and violet Gharara (which was actually pretty hot looking... but i felt overdressed!)... but when i realized i had matching accessories i actually enjoyed wearing it, but that damn dupatta kept getting stuck to my kameez!! I got the hottest ring from Pakistan and it matched sooo well! So the dholki was fun... we sang a lot of songs... my girls from Hamilton rocked the show... sang and played the dholak!

"So do I hit the chamcha now or do i sing first or do i do them both together?!" Me having struggles.. i later had to give up the chamcha banging job to someone else.

Sing it sista's!!

Then they even got me up to dance... Ahhhhhh... was quite the sight to see since I really do not know the first thing about rhythm. It's all good.. I had fun.. but realized that I REALLY need to get started on the dances for the Mehndi!! Shabina, lets get started tomorrow ;) It was great seeing all of my girls (esp Hina, who came down all the way from Montreal!! Love ya!)and missed the rest of ya ...

Me and Farakh :) Next time I'm gonna get u up too!

my girls from wayyyyy back: Ayesha, Farah & Zainab!

next time ALL of y'all are gonna sing or dance or ur outta there!! But forreal, some aunties were so obnoxious, I'm not inviting them next time... some people jus love to rain on other peoples' parades... what pissed me off was that me and my mom never complain or criticize other people or their events.. EVER.. but that doesn't stop other people from doing so. The way I see it, if u can't share in our happiness then u shouldn't be there, plain and simple. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the day.. but was definitely exhausted beyond comprehension by the end of the night. So, Ahmer's wedding festivities have officially begun!

Sunday -- was spent in recovery. Missed halaqa... sorry Naya... i was too tired to move man.

Monday, we went on this BBQ with some fam friends out in Hamilton. I ended up having fun. Initially, didnt really wanna go because was plannin on goin to CNE with the girls, but that didn't work out... so yeah, the weather was really nice. Way too many bees around tho, all the guys were acting like little girls. Chilled with the guys for a bit... then we went canoeing! My arms were killin by the end of the canoe ride (is it a ride?) but it was fun... being out in the middle of wilderness on the water... it's very calming and relaxing. Had a good time.

Ewwwwwww... school in less than a week. :(
