News-ness

In today's news, EXAMS ENDED TODAY!

In other news, I AM FLYING OFF TO ISLAMABAD TOMORROW! :D

The Best News, I GET TO FLAUNT MY COATS AND HOODIES! :D

Even Better News, I was going through our old videos. The nutcase people I hang out with once decided to create a video of students from the Student Council of our school being 'bombarded' with a water balloon. And guess where they showed off these videos at? At the welcome party for our juniors!

Yes, yes, I was one of the victims of the water balloon attacks. But, the video did turn out pretty awesome :D

Just look at him go. All set to hit the awesome-yet-innocent victim with the water balloon.
In case you're still wondering, that victim's me :p

The SPLASHES after the hit.

P.S. I've been trying to download that video but my internet connection won't budge.

Bestest News Of All Times, I found the last book in the Maximum Ride Trilogy!
Yes, the bestest news concerns books each and every time :)

Better Than Even The Bestest News, we had unexpected rainfall at Karachi four days ago!
Imagine this, you have a Physics exam the next day, you're bazing'ed-ly tensed, you and physics don't go together much. BUT. The next day you wake up to the sound of RAIN DROPS falling and the SMELL OF RAIN! ^_^

I guess, these are all the News I had piled up of all these days.

Now, I shall resume my packing for the vacation trip. And the LUMUN trip too.

Winter High-Fives

Yes, we complain about the winters at Karachi.
But that's because the weather with blankets and sweaters and those puffy socks with bunnies made on them is not really that cold here. It's DECEMBER, the month when the rest of the country sits in front of fireplaces and lazes around, while we are left to savor the cold shiver when we wake up early in the morning, and then... Well, there's no more than a cold shiver to winters here.

Anyways, anybody can get hold of a lappy (read: Laptop) and start pressing keys to criticize. What actually requires effort is finding the good and appreciating it (Yes, I do sound wisdom-atic, but that's just because I've grown two wisdom tooth now. No bragging)

So here's to the things I LOVE about Winters in Karachi :D

WINTEERRRRRRSSS!
Warning: The above image is just a means of fooling you.
Hey, don't blame me. The TV ads do that to you everyday!
At least I'm honest :D


"The Five High-Fives for Winter" 
(I'm not sure if it's High-Fives 'to' or High-Fives 'for'. Grammar Nazi, Help Please)


High-Five #1. Weather's always the best conversation starter. So, you met your teacher at the mall (teachers outside school seem pretty weird, jbtw), and of course you do not know what to say to them. Well, the weather! :D
And fire the guns of criticism :D

High-Five #2. You get the best combos. Ok, so it's winter but you're not feeling cold? (Well, obviously) Make yourself Hot Chocolate anyways and enjoy it under the fan. Now who said that hot n cold are two extreme opposites?

High-Five #3. No icy water problems. The worst thing about winters is getting out of your blanket after eating French Fries (Note: they're valid in Summers too) and having to wash your hands with icyyy cooold water. Worry no more, there's no coldness in store. (NO. Nobody calls the rhyme police)

High-Five #4. Night walks down the road. Here are how cliched winter expressions go like: winters are amazing, the coffee beaks and strolls down the lane at night. Hold it right there! 'Strolls down the lane at night' in winters are the most close one can get to impossible, unless you have a High Neck on, are wearing a cotton shirt over it, and then wearing a full sleeved sweater and a jacket too. The good news is, the night strolls in the Karachi winters are much more peaceful and require less layers of clothes to handle. Just a sweater or a shawl would do :)

High-Five #5. The sea would freeze! Yes folks, it's one of those 'think before you wish' kind of a thing. The sea here would freeze and turn to ice (Yes, that is what freezing means essentially) if it got too cold. And we love the sea too much to see it freeze even for a millisecond, right? So let the sea be :D

Did I just support the much criticized winters? :O
Am I really that awesome? :O
Well what can I say, awesomeness has its days :D

Yikes

I was away following vectors,
drowning with HCl as it was poured to neutralise NaOH,
playing with the alleles for eye colour,
being charged by the electrons flowing into the capacitor.

In short, I have been busy studying.

Exams next week.
YIKES! 

I DO! I DO! ^_^
