BORING!!! i have nothing to do. i thnk im gona rite my own cook book soon coz i have been watching BBC food alot! and tried one dessert "TIRMUSAI" .. which was like a cold cake.  and it turned out to be not soo bad as im not tht much good in baking and other dessert making stuff..... but then again.. i tried it!

AHH.... went to university after such a looooong time!! so much has changed.... we hav now a new cafeteria and the whole building is being painted.... renovations been done.... we've got new 1st yr batch and then prev ppl...... the worst thing is that for the frst time the  MPA final and the MPA prev are not having their combined major classes bcz most of them have taken HRM as their major.... and they cant fit like 100 students in one class!!!!

Many of my frnds hav taken bi-major.. mostly finance and hrm. theres this students week coming up, cricket matches.. between the depts and then the welcome party!!!

I was 10 years old when I first went to Saudia Arabia. I was excited because I would be able to stand in front of the house of  Allah for the very first time!!! We did the niyat for umrah here from Pakistan. It was a 6 hrs flight. My brother was only 7 yrs old, and I had to take care of him most of the time. Our hotel was very near from the haram shareef, it was only 10 mins walk…. If im not rong because it was a loong time bak!

We all used to go together but we decided tht IF wen any one of us get lost so he/she should wait fr the others at the green light which shows the way for hajr-e-aswad. That was the easiest way to find anyone who gets lost.

I dont exactly remember actually after how many days it happned.. but i guess my mom or my sis... one of them was not ready and it was time for zuhur prayers... and we had to move fast.. so wat my mom did was she gave me 2 riyals, and said. saad n u go and meet us after the namaz at the green light. i agreed to that, and was happy too coz i could go to the haram shareef all by myself. As saad was 7 yrs old so he had to sit in the mens area... i sat at the bak.. rite at the end where the ladies section ended.. so tht i dont have difficulty in finding my brother wen the namaz ends.

As soon as the namaz ended... saad n I went to look for our parents... we waited at the green light fr like 20 mins but we couldnt see anyone! nor anyone came there in 20 mins. we got really worried and started looking for them. The whole haram shareef was soo crowded.. i didnt know wat ma mom or ma  sis was wearing.... i circled around the kaa'ba fr like 3 times and then saad started crying that he's hungry and he wanted to eat sumthng!!

i walked all the way to the gate, i even frgot i came in frm which gate.. we had to rem the numbers so tht we dont get out on the rong side.. so it was a really long walk... i had only 2 riyals.. and all i could buy was a shaorma,and only 1 could eat it. And saad was hungry..  so he ate tht.... then he was thrsty too.. and i had no money left.. so i took him inside the haram, and asked him to drink some abe zamzam... which he did.. shukar he didnt started yelling n screamin tht he want a cold drink or sumthng.. coz u know how brothers can b.. specially younger ones!!

After that we both came back to the hotel, took the key for the room from the reception and went in. i thnk it was almost time for the asar parayers.. wen we went back to the hotel...... we both had juices, cakes, and al tht junk food inside the room.. that all of a sudden i heard my dad yellin and saying " are u two inside" if u r open the door!!! and i did... and my dad n mom wer elike. we were soo worried about u... where did u two go? we told u to meet us at the green light! and we just left the room 15 mins ago and u 2 werent here?!!!! wen did u come here? i mean soo many questions...
so i answered.. that we went to look fr u and i even circled around the Kaa'ba 3 times .. thinkin  that maybe u would see me and come to me. coz i couldnt find uanywhere and then saad was hungry and thrsty and then i was tired and i wanted to come bak to the hotel so that whenever u all would come here.. u can have us here at the hotel!

but that was such a long time back... but weneva i thnk of tht.... it was fun getting lost n found in saudia..... i had my brother wid me.. otherwise i dont know wat i would hav done wid those 2 riyals and  getng out of that haram shareef gate at the rong side. my brother guided me a lil on our way to the hotel!!
