errrmm...


Lecture was off so I was quietly seated in class not knowing wot to do. A girl approachd me, who too, was sitting alone n said hi and started talking in a friendly manner. It was really nice coz at times it gets pretty borin n kinda lonely in college being a foreigner with no-one 2 talk to.

Anyway. Interesting conversation.

U gota hear this.

Sigh!! =(

gettin up so late
recitin d holy quran
listenin 2 d heart warming siyarath
bearing d unbearabl kuru vaahaka mubaaraaiy
the utterly stupid incidences
the anhen talk hours
the exciting game sessions
the crazy badhige chaos
the firihen ppl ge foni fini buru jehun
the roadha kuru kurun thingy
counting the seconds till maqrib
the joyful grab to the kadhuru plate
continued filling and refilling
the handhaan nethifa huri last minute variety of hedhikaa
having fun tryna avoid doing the dishes
d feeling of holy-ness
the late nite thaas championships
d annoyin yet-fun thiyabeyfulhun ge furusathu..
the always too-good-to-be-tru TVM (:P)
