And other than a trip to Thailand and Gwadar, I don't think there were too many exciting moments either.
But still, there were some fun moments, with some close friends. Some friends grew closer, and not too many drifted away.
There were plenty of things I wanted to change - things that I have not been able to change, or do anything about. Primarily because of my own inherent laziness and averseness to change; and the fact that some things are beyond my control.
But hey, contrary to what people may say, life is long. God know what may happen tomorrow - and living in Karachi, this city that I cannot grow to love, you actually don't know what may happen tomorrow.
Am finally reading something other than "chick-lit" (I call it Lad-Lit) and re-reading children's stories -- I am actually reading Sophie's Choice and am surprised as to how engaging it is, despite the palpable, infinite sadness that the book exudes from time to time.
Yet, I remember when I met William Styron a little more than a decade ago, having seen the movie, I told him that I had read the book; and nice man that he was, he said that I was a very bright young man, who he thought would go far. How wrong he was!
Anyway, let' s hope I get through the entire book. If nothing, I'd have accomplished that!
