Online Shopping

January 31, 2007

oh!!! Recently I received a Credit Card of my own which normally takes 15 to 20 days, but it took 7 to 8 months in my case, the reason behind it was simply negligence of the bank staff, nothing else…. I applied for credit card in May as I may take it with myself to china, but I got it in December. Anyways, I was supposed to do online shopping for my Final Year Project… Ooh great, bank wants me to fax them the information and request them to activate my card for online use.. But this can’t be done by me because I am a supplementary card holder; I need to ask my dad!!! Uff…. I asked them to change my address; no it can’t be done…. They and Their POLICY!!!!! Ahan… I remember, I was talking about Online Shopping… anyways I managed to fax them and fulfill all requirements of bank.. Now What! Digikey (the supplier) didn’t charge my card in the activation time, they attempted after it was in activate… Now again I asked my bank to activate my card for some time duration, they did but NOW Digikey want some proof in order to re-attempt the card and I don’t have one (scanned) !! Third day, I requested bank to activate my card for online use, Ooh Yes, They did… Now, KESC (Power Supplier) doesn’t want me to do so, I am in dark…. Now what, Let me call Bank to post-pone the time… Very Good, Now my Phone Connection (GO CDMA) is not working…. Great!…. Now I have to do nothing except getting frustrated…. In the whole I did one good thing, that was While I was scanning the proof, I sent them email stating that please re-attempt my card at this time, and they are good… they did so and finally after all these, I managed to Online Shopping :) … Hip Hip Hurray!!! But Still I am afraid of that Custom issue; let’s hope for the best and please pray for me ;)

I Expect A Lot…!

January 31, 2007

Ahan… I would like to mention here one thing about myself that is I always expect a lot, rather a lot a lot from my friends …. I don’t know why, may be because I always do whatever my friends say (until that doesn’t harm any one)… I do whenever they want, whatever they want, wherever they want… when I say friend, I have equal respect for him/her, I never let my friends fight, I always find out the solution to the problems… I don’t want to exaggerate but I do care about my friends, they are important in my life…!

It hurts me when my friends not do what I expect. I expect my friend would do whatever I say to him, but they don’t (sometimes they do as well), they even don’t shy while rejecting… and I OMG, Control myself and think why he/she rejected for the said task? Any reason, but I am unable to… May be It’s only me, I shouldn’t expect much from them… My Expectations are increasing with time.

God help me out….!

What a Start of New Year!!!

January 31, 2007

So, it was 31st December when I was thinking of going outside and celebrate New Year…. Well first we planned to have the gathering of The Webmasters but we couldn’t make it then we planned to go to Sea View with college friends, so we went to sea view…. After arriving there we realized that we have probably wasted our time, since lighting over there went off around 12:30am and there was a huge amount of POLICE force there and panic situation everywhere… POLICE was there to protect us, I saw some constables shouting at crowd then I thought going back home is not a bad idea!!

I was supposed to go to my hometown (Ghotki) on January 1, 2007. Train was scheduled at 6:30am… I always wake up on the alarm, but I don’t know why I couldn’t make it on New Year…. I woke up at 6:15am… OMG! What Its 6:15am… I can’t believe this… I rushed to catch the train but again it was Eid-ul-Azha and I couldn’t find bus / Rikshaw or Taxi… so I missed the train…
Next train for my hometown was after 1 hour… so I got ready and went to catch that train, before leaving for my hometown I thought to refund my ticket but you know Its Pakistan Railway, there is not a single person available at the desk, I tried a lot to contact some higher authorities but all seems to be blank, there was no helping hand.. All were saying like “It’s not our task, its out of our domain”… Finally the Idea of ticket refunding was dropped… I got into another train and went to hometown safely!!! From then I am afraid of waking up on time !!!….

What a Start! Hoping good from New Year….!
