Wht a day!!

ok so the 18th was pretty eventful in plenty of ways. firstly we went to GITEX and once there we went quite crazy. although it wasnt really cheap but we were in more or less a spending mood. so we got a laptop, the 2nd in the house, mashallah, and its a really cool one; its a Compaq Presario, i cant remember the model no. but it is silver and has a white keyboard which looks really cute!! then we got a digital camera, FINALLY!!!! tht is one purchase i am totally proud of, i finally got my way and we got a Nikon Coolpix P2 in blue. i wanted a Canon but its too expensive in comparison so I settled for a nikon instead. the only thing i dont like about it is because of some odd reason the pictures are shaky when i turn the flash off. and i dont like taking pictures with the flash unless necessary coz it alters the light quality and hence the effect in the picture. but whatever, we can finally take senseless pics of everything and everyone.

then we (me and my friends) went to the beach, as my birthday party was on the 18th in lieu of the 14th(stupid, stupid finance quiz, and i got a bad grade after all the late nights! :( ) the weather was completely amazing, we had a ball and then came the gifts. they pitched in and got me a sony walkman!! it is a nw-e003f and its pink!! its soooo cute!!

thanks so much guys! im completely in love with it and have taken to carrying it everywhere with me (it lives in my pockect:)!! ). so right now im on a bit of a high, come tomorrow ill be high on caffiene and low on sleep as i have an economics mid-term and an HR submission on the 22nd, both quite heavy on the contributory percentage. why i dont start work before i dont know..?
today i was at work and they ( i think) finally confirmed, as in said that the contract would be ready by next month, that i will be working for them. which is a relief but i was going to take a break and go to karachi for 15 days and come back after eid which doesnt seem possible now as they want me to join after new years day. arrrghhhhhhh!! now im thinking if i should cancel the trip altogether coz; is there any sense in going for a week?? on top of this they still havent confirmed which of the two positions am i being offered, although i have an idea; but still...

the fact tht ill be finished with school, for atleast a year, and will start work full-time, still hasnt sunk in, it is still surreal, intangible, incomprehensible. i still remember in vivid detail when i we were deciding whether i should go to eahm or not and now im done... where did the time fly?!
