Call Whom? Obviously Her!

Yesterday me and friends were freaking bored in college. Since all the teachers were occupied with teaching their classes and one of them absent, we were left to wander around aimlessly. We discussed about the advertisement now and then just to end up laughing and conversing over unconnected topics.

As I was sitting with Azraa, I saw Kulsum come up and tell us that Linu Ma'am was calling "us". Since she was far away I didnt really get what she actually said. I told her to tell ma'am that we didn't want classes. She kept repeating again and again that ma'am wanted just one of us to come. I understood that point only in the end. Azraa was getting up to leave when I handed my laptop to her and I went with Kulsum.

When I went to see ma'am who was teaching in the 2nd B.Com's class, the class seemed to find something funny. I didn't pay much attention and ma'am told me whatever it is she wanted to tell.
Later on I came why they were actually laughing. Of all the girls Kulsum only had to get me and they sure know well enough that Kulsum would walk into class bringing me her awake.

That was such a laugh for all of us. All of them said the same thing. "Of all the girls, she could only find Sarah to bring with her and she did." Such a predictable Kulsum! And ya since it was she who had come with the message, it would obviously be me who would answer her request!

Feral D.Jk

Yesterday we were sitting in the van for the other students and a teacher to come and join us in ours. During that time Kulsum pulled away my Feral D.Jk's home (the name I kept for my mobile). She left a slight dent on the side of D.Jk! This did make me say "ahhhh"! (I perfected my "ahhhh's" now). Kulsum apologized and was also laughing nonstop.
So I decided to take the big step and I renamed Feral D.Jk to "J.R. D.Jk". I asked Kulsum to send any picture so that I could reveal my Bluetooth name that way. She asked me a number of questions when she decided to transfer a particular picture. She asked me if I had named D.Jk as " Deployed D.Jk" or "Poor D.Jk"? All I said was you will see.
When she saw my Bluetooth name she was like J.R.? Then she realized whom it stood for (Kulsum is the creator of a character named J.R.). What she sent to my mobile was... a picture of Jasper Hale, who according to Kulsum is the twin brother of J.R.! So my Bluetooth contained J.R.'s name and I received an image of Jasper. All Pure coincidence right?
This was the picture I was talking about.

SILENCE

I need silence. pin drop silence. from the multi faced personality people. i need a relief. from their constant self centeredness. self-indulgence. i want to escape. from miles around. all i need is silence.

My World This Week

I sat back today to analyze the hoards of things I have to complete and also commence. Starting with the item that has occupied all my conscious levels is the damn advertisement. Though the idea has been decided, its the number of things that we require to do to make it look like a full fledged ad. Videos and pictures! I hate dial-up connections. It makes work impossible with the amount of downloading that we have to do.

Next on saturday, comes the test: Front Page 2003! The heck. What does she teach us? She is horrible when it comes to teaching MS Office. We had to endure her crap in the 1st year and now its back to square one. So we have a test on that on saturday, which no sane person will look forward to.

After that is over the ad will have to be submitted on wednesday. Then we also have to make a powerpoint presentation on our college. It is voluntary but my friend was asking me to join her which I again have to consider. I need to help her out. If our ppt gets selected it will be displayed on the office screens in Dammam and Bahrain.

After all this hectic load we have an assignment on FrontPage to be completed. I tried to copy and paste but adobe reader is copy protected. Which means I will have to resort to writing which will never happen because figuring out my handwriting will be like deciphering codes. So I will have to type my way through.

After those blessed typing is over, next is the Wall Magazine! By then our brains will be exhausted! More ideas and more printing and more tension. Finally all the activities will get over... Oh also in between all these we will have another activity which also be the Debate and all the girls will look towards me for taking part in the debate. So maybe I will have to give in and have to take part.

Even after all this, life won't provide any hope as we will exams for the next few months!!!

Rain!

Its raining today and it feels good. I like the rain. The drops of cold water on your face feels wanted. The day started when I woke up to find it drizzling. It never pours like it does any where else. It drizzles and slashes rain heavily for some time and in the next minute you will find the sun peaking out of the clouds.
After dinner I asked dad to take us outside. Me and my family went outside just to find that it had stopped raining and settled again for drizzling instead. I took out my favourite hat more like a fishing hat you could say and wore it instead of my scarf. It was amazing. The roads were already clogged with water for such a small amount of rain the reason being that the drainage system is poor in Saudi as I guess they never expected so much rain in the coming years.
We took a trip to the beach by detouring to buy some groceries first. That was when I switched on the radio and got Lara Scott on the World Chart Show. There were playing No. 5 Akon, which meant just three more songs to hit Mika! I was glad that I didn't miss Mika's "We are golden" song. After a life time of long awaiting agony they played his song. This time we were in the corniche road and I could see that it was drizzling again and the rain drops were caught up in the wind. The momentum of the car and the wind and the yellow street lights made the drops look like gold snow! I gasped with delight that made my mum think
that something was wrong. Maybe i should work on my "ahhhh"'s. "We are not what u think v areee, WE ARE GOLDEN! WE ARE GOLDEN!!!!!!!!!!"
Then to top all of it the sewage's also decided to join in and they made breathing so horrible I had to close up the window and also not hear the middle of the song! Screw u drainage system!
As soon as that smelly experience got over we took a turn and went down the way we had come. My sister and mum noticed that the waves were more rash then usual (there being no waves at all). Not even a hint. This was the first time we saw the waves crashing against the rock in non- systematic speed. It was beautiful. We got down from our cars and went to have a closer look. The drizzle drops, the wind and the drops from the crash of d waves so so cool. My mum was shivering. I wasn't. I felt so good like it was right for me to be there. We tried to take a pic of the waves but it was dark and the scene just couldnt be frozen permanently on the screen.

We got back into the car and took a longer road. This was deserted. My mum and my sister happened to come across a crane. Dad told that it was a figment of their imagination. We then stopped the car again and took a 5 minute hike and their we saw this beautiful crane standing on its one leg. All alone. I felt something inside me, which was hard to describe. We watched it there for a long time and then left. We headed home. It was a night that I will never forget.
