Cosmic Nite and Swinging

A day back we had the cosmic night in our office aka sort of annual dinner (well not really annual coz such dinners do happen when someone from US office hit ours – it was the GM this time) – the dinner was after office at the big boss’s farm house – with an interior designer wife and GOD she was pretty – the house, in outskirts of Islamabad, was superbe – classy and I just fell in love with the décor – it had almost zero furniture just few rugs and everything was done in traditional way with chatayiiis, mooras, diyay, candles, dimmed lights, effects here and there, kettles hanging riund in kitchen – God it was chic in its own style – and what happened in my anticipation – I had the batteries on charge a nite before and in hurry took the camera without batteries in the morning and didn’t knew abt it till we reached the place. Dinner was classy too – at first I was shying off with the idea of you know lush pussh tiyaari but ended up a few mascara strokes and a lip colour added and high heels – thanks god – I did that :)

It was a nice night out – I thoroughly enjoyed it and would love to visit the place again …. And guess what we (me and a friend) did today – near our office there’s an enclosed area with govt flats in it – it has a general store kind of a place and alongside there’s a huge playground for children with few swings too — usually the place is crowded with people from offices for smoking and all that in lunch hour – today weather was superb – store was closed and literally no one there apart from 3 or 4 elderly people – so me and my friend were like swings pay chalein — really I just love swinging in the air , ofcourse on a swing, so that e did – my frnd was just sitting on it enjoyin and I was like itnay arsay kay baad chance millla hay and I wont take benefit of it – God I really took few high and high and high and high swings – It was the best moment of the day today !!!

Childhood fantasies and games and the whole TIME was just THE best ….!

Islamabad and its dilkashi!:), miss it.
Glad that you enjoyed swings. Never let non-children:) take away your childhood at any age. You are honestly yourself only when you are child.

That reminds of how my wife wanted to decorate our house (when we get our own) in something similiar…The picture you just showed…its a WOW!! Too bad you couldnt take pictures…

As for the swings…my office is a rented bungalow and it has swings…hehe…but its too bad the IT Head of the company cant sneak out and have a little go….it would be too embarassing to get CAUGHT!!!

Kettles hanging around in the kitchen? Hope the cooks didn’t bang their heads into them too often! Were they wearing crash-helmets? :D
