Halo All!

Well Well Well...

Everyone seems to be having some kind of a scary tale to narrate,and well Faisal, you're scary enough, so dont bother.

Where is Avi? I wanted to ask him something. See the thing is, there's this girl I know who also studies in Uni of Tronnow,who told me the other day that she gets FREE Baskin Robbins in her uni whenever she likes..I dont believe her,so could you please confirm ?

Since none of you are in Dubai,I thought why not give you all some happenings around here..So i picked up three.One is extremely hilarious,the other extremely sad and the third, is good.


The Sad :
This really sucks man..As much as we hear such stuff abroad,its happened here.
Apparently a mother took her 3 year old daughter shopping, in Naif Souq last week, as she was starting her first day of nursery the next day.Being it a crowded place on Friday,the mother was browsing through a rack of clothes thinking her girl was right behind her,when she turned around and the girl was nowhere to be found. She was lost. Just like that.
The police were called,investigations were done,but there was just no clue of her anywhere. For 6 whole days,she wasnt found.
The whole of Dubai was in a shock. nothing like that had ever happened before.The mother was seen loitering around tht area everyday. Letters poured in,Lost posters were stuck up,mobile nos were given incase she was found.but nothing.zilch.
When exactly one week later.she was found naked and dead on the beach. Her face was so distorted,she was only recognised by the gold earrings she wore.
Imagine....from Naif Souq to the beach.
Can you imagine what the girl mustve gone through? and even worse, her mother?

That's life.

The Good :

FINALLY the Govenrment of Dubai has decided to taking action agaisnt all the companies not paying workers on time. I mean,the fact that all the infrastructure in Dubai has been built by them,and in return they are given horrible living conditions,no wages and treated like crap,it was time U.A.E did something.And they did something,ONLY after a certain company's workers had a HUGE strike on Sheikh Zayed road at 9am last week. There is so much happening around here after the rent & fuel hike.U.A.E is going mad.All of a sudden Private schools are being investigated, with so many of them closing down.People are literally dying of the high rents and the TRAFFIC? LORD ! if it could get ANY worse.it has. It's a sin to even go out! Plus with the GITEX going on,you cant imagine.

The Funny :

Okay, apparently on one of the days during the GITEX at Airport-expo David Beckham was spotted. People went mad.There was a huge crowd.Word spread, Gitex got packed and 'David Beckham' was in need of a body guard.Security got tight.People got hauled away and Canon Camera created ripples.
I thought WoW, David Bekham at the Gitex..mustve been awesome. But then I thought,why the heck would a millionairre come all the way to Dubai for a couple of cheap electronics?
and the next day, 7 days published "his" photograph.
I cant tell you HOW much i laughed. David Beckham ? That guy was a mixutre of Govinda and Elton John!
I'll try to scan and send it.

But seriously, people in Dubai are losing it.

til then, take care.

Uh...I don't get FREE ice-cream but it's sort of available in my Dining Hall where i have "all-you-can-eat" plan so yea basically i can have it anytime...

It's not Baskin Robbins though...

And you should ask her which college she's in cause each college has a different meal plan and a different dining hall...
