Save the 'best' for the last

This afternoon I got a message from a friend that tuned into ATV, we are on-air. I told my family to check it out as I had to take a bath for the Friday prayers.

Well, the program was actually recorded almost 2 weeks back at one of the ECG exhibitions I did. Everyone's favorite - Mani was the host of the program and the format was years old, 'get a mic with a camera and bug people with questions when they are hanging out'. Mani talked about Bob Woolmer's death and he came to us after some girls ran away from him "shyly". He sat with Hassan, me and Yasir and started talking about the cricket. Hassan was the most knowledgeable, Yasir was the most braggy one and I was the "other" one. During the whole link, I sat quitely and expressed my ideas in the end.

Now lets come back to today's afternoon, I went came out of bathroom, I saw my mom and sisters laughing. They said you talked something "enlightening" and I was shocked when I heard that they edited out all the good part and saved my cheesy stuff as the comment of the show. LOL.

Well, I guess it is pretty much important to think before you speak or else you end up in jokes. See ya soon. Bye.

P.S. : The program was called Road Romeo because Mani was wearing a cowboy's hat and boy, he is very unattractive.

I Learned,

During this month, I learned a lot from people we tend to ignore: Our Juniors or people younger than you. Seriously, we tend to think that they do not how things work and you have an edge over them. Juniors might not give you a professional workup but instead they make you go back to your roots. I was working on the reception at ITIF Asia 2007 and Textile Asia 2007 where I met two very distinct people.

At ITIF Asia 2007, I met Amna; a First Semester student from Bahria University. I must say she was one confident and energetic girl. When I looked at her, I saw that ambition which I had when I joined Textile Asia 2006 as a Receptionist. She was eager to learn as well as she was a team player. It was very much fun to work with her. The only problem I think I had with her is that she complained about food a lot.

At Textile Asia 2007, I met Ziad; a Second year student from Sir Syed University. He was a tall, fair and handsome guy. He was the part of Press & Media. He usually came around and chat with me to kill some boring time. Unlike other of his kind, Ziad was very polite and straight in his approach. There were times where we had some conflicting ideas about some issues. He was truly a gentleman kind.

Although, every team member has a special place in my heart but these two stood out due only one reason.

How much they reminded me of being myself?

They both remembered to communicate with me after the events. Both of them made me remember that the things which made me special. I think I was very lucky to meet them as I will try to keep those traits, forever with me.

Good luck to you both!

The first post of 2007

Surprisingly, today it seems that there is no restriction on Blogger. I can log in just like that. In the previous two months, a lot happened and I would love to tell about it very soon. I hope this ban is permanently lifted, or else it might take me another two months to post. :)
