Laughter and memories

Thursday. 31st of December. 2015.

Last day of the year. 20 years completed to the Benaam Crew. Nearly. We started at the tail end of Jan 1996.

Today was a reunion lunch. I arrived back late last night. Woke up. Went to DHA. And then it was time for lunchy munchy.

Haseenas told us to go to Chatter box at the corner of Ittehad and Bukhari. I got there first, followed by sulty n co and sallo and the haseena and sanaras. The last to arrive was cash. I wanted bfast. But they weren't serving :( So we all settled for chicken... something with jalapenos and mushrooms i think. And we had soup. With little pieces of bread... crunchy.

After stuffing ourselves there, we were mulling over dessert so we decided to go to Neco's ... again. THEY had all day breakfast so we ordered the french toast, doodh pattis, desserts and sat down and talked and laughed and made fun or every one. Cash insisted i was luring him to a park in dxb lol...  it was BOXPARK!! lol... sallo fell on the floor laughing heheh...

I cant even remember all the things we made fun off. Tulsi not being on the Pakistan tour with the benaamis, where to plan our 2020 reunion.. we really dont have that many years left. I dont think we should work in 5 year increments. Another 40 years at most.. thats really not enough.. like 8 reunions?! No no...

Need to up the frequency on that one..

Finally it was like 4pm... and we all got up to say good bye.. sigh. Sniff. Bhuuuwaaaaaahhhh :(--

I was leaving the next day. And it was a packed agenda so that was that. Good bye my loves :(..

On the way bk, me n Sabir decided to check on tickets for Ho Mann Jahan at the Atrium mall. The dude at the counter said first show's all sold out. You can get thr 2am show tkts:) i was like no no.. that wont work. I'm leaving at night so it has to be earlier. Then he's like the next available tkts are for sunday.. lol... so i was like seriously?! U dont even have one seat? So he looks at me... here's the Almighty and his kindness... he's like "u just want one seat?" I said well i actually need two. And he opens the seating chart and there are two seats left with two seats between them. He was like, aap ki kismat buht achi hai :) i said its my ami's kismat since she's the one who wanted to watch it :):) got the tkts and went home happy.

It was new years night. So we were expecting things to shut down early. But they really didn't. Just the roads into Defence got blocked.

At night, ami and i got dressed and went to a neighborhood wedding. It was nice. Met alot of the neighbors. Wore the blue pink blk coat thingy khals gave. That was that. Came home and slept.

New years sounds included alot of firing. Still makes me wonder why we celebrate it with such fervour. But :) to each his own!

Happy Georgian calendar new year GemWorld. :)here's to an easy, breezy 2016! (Hah!)
