Wohooo! My Cleopatra dress can easily be converted into work-appropriate attire. Yay!
Aw, I feel so loved.

My mom is really picky with her friendships too. One of the friends she has made recently is so very similar to my mom, you can see why they are friends.

My mom told her about something that happened in my life recently. M aunty has been upset about it and angry at the situation, for me. She just called me to ask me to come and spend a day with her - given that my mom is away.

Me being awkward about spending A DAY with someone my mom's age, and being concerned about not knowing what to talk about, I probably didn't reciprocate well. Even though I am really touched that she is reaching out to me to see how I am doing and is angry for me.

(Its nothing too too bad, which makes me feel even more cared for.)

I've made plans to visit her, even if its for a couple hours.

I'm touched.

I am about to say this, publically, on my blog.

I want to take someone/anyone I like and just kiss them passionately. (Probably because I am hurting a little bit.)

Dresses, dresses everywhere

I decided to wear knee-length dresses without the very opaque pantyhose. I love dresses, and pantyhose in Summer just kills the prettiness.

I wore one of my regular dresses to work today, and got compliments. I loved the feminine feeling. It felt extremely natural.

I'm lovvvvving the casual-greek-goddess maxi dress I got during lunch :D. Cant wait to wear it.

"How does it make you feel?" is a way better question than "what do you think?" to induce action.

I don't know the name of the person who does the poetry after Tina Sani's Mori Araj Suno, Coke studio version.

I love the smile on his face while he recites the poetry. He's really quite enjoying it.

Bungeeeeed-Jumpeeeeed

Bungeeed. It was fun. And all the fear was out as soon as it ended. I could have gone for more jumps.

3 seconds of free fall. 200ft drop.

I don't even remember when my body inverted to head first.

Whoever said it doesn't feel as bad as you anticipate it to, was right. All the fun is in the anticipation. The jump itself was not as exciting. But definitely fun.

Everything is happening at the same time. Mamoon had a minor stroke in Pakistan earlier this week. He's barely in his 50s. Just became the chair of his department at the university. He was teaching when it happened.

Luckily doctors think that with dedicated physiotherapy he can recover in 3-6 months.

Aashiyanay ki baat kartay ho by Noor Jahan is making me feel in love. So beautiful. I want to force someone to listen to it and enjoy it as much as I'm enjoying it.

I need to become a little more about things. Pretty things.

Candles, scents, teapots, pencils, lamps
