weekly round up - running for school admission , Mohatta Palace and Keamri Port Fountain

I had been away for the past one week , no i was not out of the city , i was running around for my son's admission in school , well he is 4 years old and like one time when people used to ask how many seats the medical / engineering college has how many applied now the same goes for the Kinder Garten / Primary .
I gave an interview on the 10th MArch at C.A.S ( Center of Advance Studies ) and was told to wait till 1st of April for the letter well the letter came , a regret letter :( , well my wife was after me to somehow get my son in this particular school , why the school he is in is perfectly allright and one of the best in the city but no it has to be C.A.S , lasst year i was rejected from there cause we fail to conceive our kid a month and a half earlier yup just becasue of 45 days we didn;t qualify for interview , that gynecologist told me to get my wife operated in Feb but i opted to wait and my son was born in MArch should have listened to her .So now i have been running around kissing asses to get him in CAS called the main school they refused to talk to me so yesterday i walked in the junior branch where i was given the cold shoulder , i did gave them an application 'pleading' to take my son in case some fortunate pupil of their's left which i know was torn and thrown in the waste basket right after i closed the door so here's the story of the past week other highlights include

A visist to Mohata Palace , those of you who haven;t been there it's awsome a piece of KArachi history and some stuff you may never see else where

a visit to Kemari awaiting for that damn Fountain Cruise to run take my advice go there after 8 pm so that some people show up else if you go there accompanied with your son like me they will make you wait for an hour in the empty boat for an hour long cruise .

Other good things i finally got SPSS 14 ( cracked not purchased ) well someday i will learn how to use it till than i have forwarded it one of my clients

That's it for now , will try to be regular now have to leave some 350 pages await my signs

After a long time i visited Forum today , the place has converted into an all time enetertainment arena with all sorts of shopping and food reminds me of 12 oaks mall at Twelve Oaks Michigan ( though its not as big ) well i went to Hub leather awsome collection got my mum a Suede bag and promised my wife to buy her one the next time i take her over there . I also for the first time saw a local shoe maker using Swarovski crystals on their shows with the nominal price around USD 20 per pair . Where food is concerned the Baked Cheese Cake followed by Cold Coffee Mocha Flavored hit the spot

Jumeirah - A Festival of Taste For The Uber Rich

Food and wine festivals are always happily decadent events but when an event is hosted by the Jumeirah hotel group, luxury takes on a whole new level. Th first annual Jumeirah Festival of Taste takes place May 21-26, 2006 in Dubai and features perhaps the most over-the-top dining event I have ever heard of. It is called the Ultimate Dinner Party and will take four people on an unparalleled dining experience. It starts with a cocktail reception at the Jumeirah Emirates Towers where they can mingle with the celebrity chefs participating in A Festival of Taste, then they are taken by helicopter to the Burj Al Arab for a first and second course. A luxury car then takes them to the Villa Beach Restaurant at Jumeirah Beach Hotel for a hot entrĂ©e. Then a limo takes them to the Pisces in Souk Madinat Jumeirah for the main course, followed by a short walk to Napa for dessert, coffee, cigars and digestifs. The evening ends with an overnight stay in a suite at Burj Al Arab and a morning breakfast as well as a receive a gift from Jumeirah to commemorate the night. The party costs AED 100,000 for four (around $27,230). Other more traditional events that are part of the festival include cooking demonstrations, wine tastings and book signings. The festival kicks off with the ‘1001 Nights Meet the Stars Opening Event’ which includes a champagne reception,wine tasting, live cooking stations featuring renowned chefs and live entertainment.

Got Juiced

suno suno meri dastan
kis tarah Telenor ne nikala mera Juice
pehle kharach kia 100 rupiya taake mile d-juice
us per bheja main ne office ka bhaiya keh telenor se lao free pack ek juice
us ne kaha naheen dete mujhe pack
kehte hai original id lao than come back

phir jo mai ne balance check kia
4 ruppe ka jhatka lia
na mufta aaya na free pack juice
is tarah Telenor ne kia mujhe de juice
