My shalwar ripped at the knee in the morning.I saw it when I was drawing my knees up to sit in the chair and for a second I looked at the hole petrified, my sleep deprived mind thinking, first the rip, then the whole shalwar so I did the only thing I could at that moment to resuce it.I grabbed the stapler and stapled it and it has done me proud so far.Nobody notices and its holding up marvellously.Lol.Yaay for me.Mama would die of shame.
Trek stuff littered all over the bed.I can't find woollen mitts.I'll just have to do without them.Or ask someone in Hunza to lend them.I hope, I hope we get to stay in Hunza for a bit before we head off for the glacier.I want to lounge on the bolsters of Cafe de Hunza, read their books and have apricot pancakes.YUM.
Danced with B yesterday.Lol.Much entertaintment.Quite the good dancer except for choregraphed stuff.Then he looks like an Ooompa Loompa for Wonka's factory.Lol.Watched Erin Brokovich and Ramsay's Nightmare (on BBC Food) yesterday.Most impressive both.I don't like movies as a rule but Erin was good stuff.I suppose that's the success of a corporation.It never depends on one person, it never goes down because of one person.It's always greater than the people who make it and they are quite the disposable.It was clear in Unilever where they were having to fire high level resource people who had spent 20 years in the workplace.I don't know if the Golden Handshake is all its cracked up to be, even if it was a fantastic monetary compensation. Ramsay's Nightmare kitchen was hilarious.Ramsay had to make a French chef bend to the will of the Scottish so their resturant could kick off.Ramsay made them get into kilts for the flavour and the chefs went arond with spoons tucked into their stocking.Cute but gross.The French chef kept "overcomplicating" his dish by giving it too many flavours and too much ornamentation.His defence was that if he just cut down to the ingredients, it would be regressing the palate.Maybe blogging is like that too.It's fun, it's a great space (even if your potential workplace shortlists from CV by looking at orkut profiles ans blogs) but the general grain of stuff posted may just be regression to mediocrity.Oh well. Who's to judge.Lol. The escape clause of every academic ho.

hey moizza you enjoy that trek and yeah don't forget to take some immodium or sumthin
Ahmad: I took loads of Panadol extra.I look like black glacier right now waisey.Just thought I'd say it myself before people start commenting.(O vell, Mahreen beat me to it. Right now. *grumble*)
King: I danced and I frolicked and did fruity things with an Oompa Loompah. Don't be jealous.
Hard to imagine what a black glacier would look like. "Miss" Mahreen probably meant it as a compliment. How was the trip?
Ouch.The trip was a blister that will be pondered over when the memory is a bit distant. The minute Adnan saw me he said "main ney to kaha tha mat jao".Lol.But please note. I was not the last girl on the trip.I was in fact in the first quandrant of trekkers.
Found this blog while searching for "cafe de Hunza" - and I got to say this is one of the most enjoyable blogs I have read so far. Come to think of it I saw it in several blog rolls, but never clicked through.
Very interesting.
