Holiday bluesI wonder why all these people from abroad choose to come here in this sweltering heat?? well obviously its holiday season but still........with faulty airconditioning and electricity and water on their wishlist, they would be better off in their own homes and save their hosts the trouble of making life bearable. Well that explains I have a truck-full of peaple visiting from states, from Middle-east and even India! and its not really exciting to rush a sick, heat struck foreign relative to the hospital at odd hours, it really isnt! What surprises me the most is the fact that though they live quite comfortably and luxuriously back home by American standards, they simply love going out in the bazaars in scorching summer afternoons and hunt for the best bargains, my aunt even went to the Sunday Bazaar @ DHA and her daughter bought herself quite a few jeans from there!!! And we brand concious people stared at her with eyes popping out of their sockets! Its really a site to see my Americanized aunt standing by a roadside thelay-wala and enjoying gol-gappay!
on a different note.. summer heat is really getting on me especially with the news of semester exam results buzzing in my ear!! Yikes!!
Oh and m again having second thoughts abt this blog........maybe it isnt a really good idea afterall!! maybe I'll be the only one opening the page up every now and then, but then a blog really is an online diary isnt it?? so that means its really OK if nobody peeks into it?? WHOA! thats comforting :-)
