The Word of mAn[S]o0r

Its so funny when you make an obvious mistake, something which is unforgivenably wrong, and somehow the universe aligns itself to make it right!

I woke up late friday after suffering from a total strenght wipeout, to a msg from the office admin staff that they will open the office during the strike.

damn!! i thought to myself, hurriedly changed and left. Went down stairs and found out i’ve got a flat! which made me even more late. Eventually reached office close to 12:30 wondering why was i even here, since its namaz break from 12:30 to 2:30, and just as i reached the main door, i find out its closed!!

Quickly call up some more colleagues, who tell me another sms was sent out declaring the admin staff did not have the means to get to office, and hence we would be scheduling an off day. I never received that msg! But it did save me from missing out on half a days work acc. to the books.

Although, i never learn, and the next day i managed to get in to work no earlier than 11! This time, i had TWO.. i repeat.. TWO flat tyres!! (more on that later).

Life’s funny at times

What do u do when you talk with two people you’ve been very close too.. have kept in touch with over years on a almost daily basis.. and suddenly you realize you have no idea what they’re talking about??

Hhhhmm… where *have* i been lately?! It seems like my life has been rotating around getting my house in order.. draining it out of rain water.. getting air freshner.. getting a heating rod for hot water!! Last night i actually had an hour long discussion on the optimum use of a water heating rod in our surroundings! I reiterate… I NEED A LIFE!!!

That was one cold day yesterday, what will all the rain and everything. As with any seasonal change, i felt kind of down during the night.. and in the morning, felt weak so slept again. This is what transpired when i got to office this morning

him: mansoor, lagta hai aapka phir say late aana shroo horaha hai
me: sir, i was sick in the morning.. feeling bukharish, slept again and was right as rain (excuse the pun) when i got up at 11.
him: bukharish?? that a new illness??
me: uumm… no, its like feverish.. only in urdu… rather urdish

i could almost feel him rolling his eyes at me when i came out of his office and back to my seat….

update: this entry has just been promoted to a blogword entry. The concept this week was ‘invent a word’ so my new word is now… bukharish! I’m getting telephatic or something i think now. lol

My new favourite in Pakistani Music. This song by raeth is truly awesome!!

What i really love about this album is how much everyone in the song is ENJOYING the music! The movements really speak for a lot, and honestly thats what first attracted me to music. There’s something about a girl moving to the beat in natural, fluid movements which is a real turn on…
