Post-Midterm Flurry

ok I had my midterm yesterday, and NO i don't really wanna talk about it (altho Alhumdulillah it wasn't too too bad), but I did talk to the family incl. Sarah on tuesday.

She didn't really tell me what she's upto in Pakistan, BUT I do know what they got ME so far, and I'm pretty excited...Shalwar Kameez, SCORE! (I wonder if they have the "man-dubutta??)

I'm also going back to the Subheading format of da past.

Full House: (I already mentioned this a bit before) but Danny and Uncle Jesse were teaching DJ how to drive...and I know what she was going thru, I didn't hit anything (yet) but managing that accelerator pedal can be tricky at first...and yelling at the guy when they accidently floor it in the parking lot doesn't help!!!

And a monkey had a crush on Uncle Jesse, and was spanking him when he was sleeping, and he thought it was Becky...I know it sounds weird, but was toooo funny when watching it.

Home Alone 4: I finished with the kebabs and keema (1 of 3) and am now onto the gosht (1 of 2)...so all of you who were asking about my food situation...there it is. otherwise its cheerios, chicken burgers, wedges, eggs, cookies and ice cream.

Today I have to clean the house and "lawn the mow"... :( why can't things clean themselves, gosh, (to the appliances and floors) "You get a job!"

I kinda went on a mini-shoppin spree after my midterm. just sporty stuff, but it is ok...the shorts are long enough to cover my knees (awrah covered - check). PLus these sick shades that are so com-for- tabla.

Chillin' at Rana's: helped set up badminton set, then helped destroy one of the birdies, but other one wasn't me. Then volleyball. Then soccer. Then Later bball. and then soccer Again. "I so Tired, Boss".
Then we watched Krrrrrrrrrrrrish. it's Anisa's (Bhabbi's 7 yr-old sister) favorite movie, and she was I love the songs, but we kept fowarding them, sorry Anisa but we saved like 2 hours right there. Also, i got home-cooked food, which was cool.

I also learned mosquitoes love me, I guess I'm meetha. i got 50, literally, I counted. Need to invest in the repellent. And I was in net, so I was an easy target. I let in 4 goals in 5-goal-win match. Good Job Azfar, at least you didn't hit in the face. LOL. j/k.

Events: Walk for the Homeless (July 30) - Sponsor me (theres still time - cash/cheque/credit)

MuslimFest (Aug.12) - like buy your tickets dude!

Finally, keep commenting, otherwise I get Sad, and then lonely, then I start doing homework (accounting HMWK!!) ...that ain't right, but you can save me from boredom. Time to eat and then clean the house...Danny Tanner, I need your help!!!
P.S. The contender is BACK! boo-yah. and alvin (boogie) is not, all the best, sir.

Azfar's back!!!

The long wait is over! Azfar's (Sarah's younger brother, a.k.a the cool one) back and running this blog for the next month or so. so let's get it started.

Check this out, the weirdest thing happened. last week on thursday me and my family had a big fihgt and I was banished to my room, and I wished they just go to Indian SUb-continent for a while. Then the next morning, I woke up to an empty house and then I....okay, none of that didn't happened but you get where I'm goin with this.

I got a 30 sec call Saturday morning (11AM) from my dad and Alhumdulillah they all arrived in pakistan safely and soundly. Since the, things have been busy... for me that is...and I don't know what Sarah is upto.

Friday - Ball (I suck..I was 1-2 and had shot blocked, but had my share of rebounds and defensive stops, not many guys scored on me, but I ended gurading the guys that DON'T score much. a mere coincidence no doubt)

Saturday - Ahmer & Sheerin's Daughter, Zara's, Aqiqah. I'd show pictures of her in her cute lil red suit and all that but the cameras of the house have all mysteriously disappeared.

SUnday - Feed The Streets at Allen Garden's. Alhumdulillah, We distributed al 75 meal packages plus snacks in less than hour (we head out on 3rd week of every month if u wanna join us next time) Then I went to UTM to work on an assignement.

AND then today I went shopping! Yea I got some Milk, Eggs and Fabric Softener!! ...actually it was more like bread ("double-roti", they left me without any!!! How am I supposed to make my sam'wiches??!?!?!), Contact Lens solution and Listerine Pocket Packs. :)
pretty cool huh?

And those who are concerned about my food situation, I've gone 3 days (with the Aqiqah as a break) of ummi's home-made kebabs. and now I'm onto frozen keema, boo-yah!

Stay Tuned for more Updates...but I can get pretty lazy and might not post for a few days.
I know what ur thinking, "Azfar Lazy? WHaaaaaa?? (in moe's voice)" ...hota hai beta

Feel free to comment, I hate it when no one does. plus then I'll know who is reading and I can try to accomdate the posts to everyone's post...ok I might not try, BUT I'll try to try.

T minus 5 days

.. and I haven't even begun to start packing! Who wants to help me? The good thing is I have almost all of the suits i got made last summer (in Karachi) in one suitcase :) I knew that'd be a good idea! So I'm actually set.. jus gotta get together the last minute things and presents for the new babies and new brides that have joined th family since last year.

And the stupid sunscreen.. i dunno if i should even bother. Last time i didn't even use it.. it's so hot there that u sweat it off as soon as u put it on. I was so much more prepared last year. And to top it off... I am gonna spend my bday flying and waiting in airports all day long! :( Not that I was expecting some party... but then again they always throw me a party or two on my bday in India and Pakistan.. I'm so special!

Guess WHAT?!

..we goin to Pakistan & India next week, insh'Allah!!.. well Karachi first and then Calcutta later.

And before you think of calling me the R word... hey, it's jus a mere coincidence that I am goin back to the homeland of my parents for the 3rd time in 5 years okay!

This time, all of us (minus my chota sa lil baby, Azfar) are going! So should be much funner... and hopefully this time one of us won't end up sitting next to a grandpa who takes up all the leg room and snores the whole way home. Last time, Ammi made me sit next to him :(

And more people means more suitcase space for my kapray!! Yeahhhh shoppping! And I actually know my way around the bazaars and city now... which means more clothes in less time. I am so cool :) Plus, we're gonna be having a lil Walimah (wedding party) for my bro & Sahar... which maybe means another outfit?? But that should be a lot of fun because all of the relatives are gonna be there.. like my Papa's entire khandaan, because my Shabana Baji and her kids(from Miami) are in Karachi currently too! Then we'll be in Calcutta/Kolkata for a week or so, and another lil party. Finally, we'll be able to introduce Nana Abba to Sahar... he's probably soooo excited!

If anybody has been to Karachi or Kolkata recently and knows where we should go shopping or any hotspots... jus don't suggest Hawk's Bay!!... definitely suggest away. I don't even know what's in style anymore... the last i heard, really really short kameezes were in style.. :S not my style. But planning on getting a few saris from India fo sure.

Again, keep my bechaara blog company... I'll try to update once in a while... but the last time I went to Karachi I couldn't access it. It kept signing me into some Paki girl's blog... so yeah maybe Azfar can take over while I'm gone again! He was soooo funny... that rasssscal. Most importantly keep me updated on GH and Full House!! Oh yeahh... and keep an eye on our lil Affar.
