Eid Mubarak (1429AH)

Don't eat till you are full

The blessed Prophet said: “The children of Adam fill novessel worse than their stomach. Sufficient for him is a few morsels to keep his back straight. If he must eat more, then a third should be for his food, a third for his drink, and a third left for air.” (Sunan al-Tirmidhî)

Last time I got down to writing an India post, it got lost somewhere, wasn't able to post. So anyway, India vacation happened. Went for approximately 20 days. Mid-June to Early-July.


Saw the following Movies in Theatres:

- Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na
- Sex and the City
- 21
- Aamir
- Get Smart
- Via Darjeeling
- Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic
- Mere Baap Pehle Aap
- The Incredible Hulk
- De Taali
- Sarkar Raj
- In Bruges

12 movies in 20 days isnt so bad. Thats vacation for you. Good theatres there. Good snacks, ate out a lot. Really wanted to go see some plays but never got around to it. Dont have too many pictures. But here's one

Vacation, Vacation

I have not been on a vacation on a while. Can't really say that I've been on vacation since I graduated. Have planned to several times, but nothing ever materialized.

India is in the works now... more closer to fruition than the last few plans. Lets see what happens.

Other than that have just been busy overall. I'm a Karachi Club member. I can say I'm a 3G member (3rd Generation). Still need to pickup my card though. Hopefully once I start seeing the monthly bills, I'll start using it more.

Fuel is getting very expensive these days. Ideal time to have a car eh? Well, I know have a car, temporarily atleast.

Everything is so expensive these days, its just annoying. Who would have though 1 nan would cost 6 rupees. that's almost 10 cents!

Okay. Bye.

KhaoPiyo.com

KhaoPiyo.com is finally doing something KhaoPiyo related, not exactly what I had thought of initially, but just dipping my feet in the water.

For more details on KhaoPiyo.com visit it! :) If you're interested in contributing let me know, but being in Karachi is a prerequisite for volunteers.

Suggestions and comments are always welcome. Just mail me.

In the coming few months I'll also be working on KarachiCineplex.com V1.5, response so far has been good on the site... approximately 80-90 visitors daily.

Anyway, thats the update on that.

Old Karachi

What a Karachi!

The star of the Indian Cricket League

Who's the star of the Indian Cricket League?

Lahore Badshah's? Hasan Raza? Jhunjhunwalla? Nope... not for me.

I think the star of the show is host Mayanti Langer! Not only is she the first girl host I've seen in cricket, she's good looking and actually know's what she's talking about. A very refreshing addition to the world of cricket commentary. And certainly better looking than Harsha Bhogle (no offense Harsha, I'm a fan of yours too.)

We don't get Zeesports here on cable in Pakistan but get to see the ICL on Geo Super. I hope we get to see a lot more of her in our cricket to come.

Apparently, Mayanti is not only well versed in cricket but is also a football/soccer fanatic. Bhaichung Bhutia an Indian soccer legend once commented about Mayanti that "She knows her game."

I'd like to see some Pakistani ladies get into this game too... with this much style!
