Ranting in ....3...2...1

ok so i havent said anything in almost a month so this is going to be long, long, long. it is also going to be full of typos coz i so dont feel like checking anything. this week has been eventful, found out some ppl think of my dept as the dungeon and are also unfortunate enough to be stuck in it. i mean seriuosly its only the boss tht you allow to make you miserable, coz there isnt anyone else to bother you. so dont take things so seriously, i mean please let me live in the office, and by live i mean live and peacefully coexist. coz living is wht ihave been doing lately, in the office that is. two nights in a row i have come back at 10 pm. imagine staring at excel worksheets from 9am to 10 pm. arghhhhhhhhhhh. and its not just me , no one bloody leaves the office to go home.
went to the Bahri bar in mina salam today with the boss, her treat, and had a fab 1 and a half hr. the place was great adn the music was fantastic.
my latest music obsessions are iris-goo goo dolls, big yellow taxi-counting crows, cant fight the moonlight-leann rimes
girly i know, coz i am one
so what more, except work, oh yeah, o's college masla solved will inshallah be seeing him off to malaysia in june :) but we will all miss him, alot! found out that the bloody, graduation gown, which we have to buy, cost bloody aed 275, for something which will rot for life in the closet. wht the f**k! cant we atleast pretend to be in a normal college where students go and not the likes of paris hilton, tht combined with the ball dress, shoes and haircut will result in the most expensive night in my life. and i am sure in two years time i will have to paying double the cost. seriously the academy motto should be join now for a career at the top so you can paying back your debts. so whts more, yup just got a msg from the other O, who is leaving for Jordan. have a good time man and keep me updated.
thts it i guess so when i next get the urge to vent it will all be here.
listening to: we are the champions-queen
reading: little women-pathetic, i know, but ive got no choice!!

EVIL, EVIL, EVIL BLOGGER

OH MY GOD!! SERIOUSLY!! am i dumb or just misdirected that i wanted to make a new blog template from scratch. not only was i so not able to do that coz i wanted it to look like a design student had done it but i wasnt even able to edit my current template. so with deep remorse, regret and a severe and now throbbing back ache as well as stomach ache developed from not eating dinner till now, i now officially GIVE UP.
i do such moronic things sometimes. and the above the the simplest example. who am i to change something when it doesnot want to be changed. how can i when it is not bloody meant to be. i so wanted to do a nice template but seriously the help websites need to be translated for me. maana i am not a computer geek but i am not a complete dodo either. but in this instance i so compltely proved my self wrong.
on top of it all i so not want to go to work tomorrow. i just bloody dont. so there.
getting back to the template rants, i made out the whole format to edit my links and to add my fav sites but it seems blogger has edited those parts out so now i cant do that either. dont ask me how or why i would believe a soft ware to be against me but i swear it is. or i just cant see anything now.
on a happier note, yes happier i spoke to everyone today and even got visited. jab bhi allah deta hai to chapad phad kai. agar thoda thoda deeday to i guess i would be more satisfied but even so thank you god. it was like suddenly my prayers were answered.
Anju babe, here are some blogs you might enjoy reading coz i read them everyday. have to put them in this way instead of the nice list i had created. sighhhhhh.... a tear falling slowly (not literally though, im still the cold bitch), so here goes sobia- she is the chick with the punju mil, bee amma -whose shituation you will identify with, rehtwo-who i started reading today but the title is fantastico, diligent candy-what can i say, ghazal's-my friend in pak, and finally osama's and omar's who i do enjoy reading when they POST!!
i think this is more than enough coz if i keep on going and i can i will be waken up by my boos in the morning-just like today.
and please put in a comment if you are reading, anyone can not just bloggers, coz id like to know who reads my rubbish.
sleepy time..bye

completely hopeless and clueless

i am so wishing changing a template was as easy as excel. have been working on it so much nowadays am sick of it and by it i mean excel. i tried to change the blog using sobia's advice here but it doesnt seem to be working. i have just left it at the first step having been able to change the back ground but not the columns and now it is left at the first step which was to change the template to minima black. not only tht for for some WIERD ASS reason my index is stuck at the bottom of the page. ARGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! just now discovered by inability to type "the" keep writing "teh" for some reason. anyhoo my back is now broken, wishing i was at home so some one could give me a massage but no two more days. until then cribby me!!
must sleep now coz i have to wake up at 7:15 tomorrow so that i can keep snoozing the mobile for 45-50 mins until i know that i dont wake up then i will have to walk to work in the bloody heat. great motivation eh...!! just posting now no time or motivation to splee chack, me lard forgive me.

Hmmmmm.


a truly accurate picture of the world we live in.

1 day left...and then back to the grind

so now thts its coming to an end i wish i could extend my lazy days, the days which start with my mother's voice telling me is high time to get up and then switching on the tv in bed to watch yet another rerun of the Gilmore Girls. now its just tomorrow after which i will head of to my first day as a corporate intern. and with it i will fly away from the nest for two months and am taking enough stuff with me to suffice for a year. but thts me. it also means that now i will miss home like crazy and will go to bed on an empty stomach just cause i dont feel like food and not cause there's nothing to eat cause where food is concerned there is always plenty. mama makes sure of tht. continuously.
hopefully work will be satisfactory and they will treat me like a normal human being, able enough to carry out small tasks adequately and independently and not like some imbecile who just stepped out of kindergarten!

DEAN'S LIST!!!!!

YAHOOOOOOOOOO!!! HURRAAYYYYYYYY!!! although i got my result a couple of days back did not get the chance to post it. am so happy. i thought all my exams went crappy but actually my gpa went up a tiny, little bit. even though i am estatic! cause this means three semesters in a row on the list i.e. three out of the four taken so far. gpa attained 3.39 for the semester and cumulative 3.35.

FBISE we showed ya!!!!


My sister's results came out the 28th of june. she had appeared for her grade 10 board exam and she came out with an 83%!!!!! tht was an extremenly pleasant surprize. i have not known any one normal to get that kind of marks and she did. and by normal i mean people who live their lives, watch tv, read, listen to music and waste a bit of time too rather than just studying compulsively all year long. i was so proud, msging everyone i could think of and am still telling every one, i havent told yet, about it.
bloody amazing!!!!!
