i woke up a couple of mins back from the crackling sound of the nimco packet. This dude has been eating nimco for the past hour or so :| dont know how someone can eat all that nimco :/

08:05
peek-a-boo :o and the guy from the train resturant asks if we want breakfast :/ so had breakfast which was quite decent. And now staring outside at lush green fields :D

08:20
train stopped at kanpur or something and there is no GPRS available here so cant send this blog right now :/ back to staring outside the window :p

10:15
just had a talk with the boss in Lahore. company car will be waiting for me outside the train station. i still have no idea where the train is right now or when will it reach lahore :/ the family in the next compartment are awake, and so has the crying baby :/ like all he does is cry :/ The guy in my compartment is asleep again. damn he sleeps alot :|

13:23
ive been playing pacman 2 hours straight :D pacman on this cell is crappy though. it looks and plays well on my older cellphone :/ the train is supposed to reach lahore by 2pm... or so the schedule says :|

14:10
the dude's awake and i asked him how long will it take till we reach Lahore... he said by 4pm :| man this so sucks.

15:07
just got a call from the office. apparently there is no confirm time when the train will reach the station so they had to call the company car back coz there was alot of outdoor work pending and the car was urgently in need. now i have to make my own way to the office :( i will be reimbursed though :p

16:03
still no Lahore :| and the dude is asleep once again. not that there is anything else to do. its better he's asleep though, or else i would have to talk to him... which I dont want to :p

17:30
Lahore cantt :D wooohooo! finally. now its only a couple of minutes to Lahore train station.

18:05
there is no space on the platform at the station :| man this so sucks :@ been sitting here since last 15 minutes or so :/

20:03
at the Karachi station there are like radio cab and metro cab services, so i thought it would be same in Lahore as well.. after walking around for like 15 minutes and asking 5-6 people, who by the way had no idea what i was talking abt, i came to the conclusion that there is no radio cab or anything of the sort here... yes im so smart :p

so i got into the nearest rickshaw and told him where i wanted to go and i asked specifically asked him if knew that area and he was like.. maslaa hee koi nahi hay.. lay jaingay. the rickshaw started and got stuck in the traffic jam :/ after a while the traffic cleared and we were on our merry way. on the way i was looking at the direction boards and stuff.. then a board came for where i wanted to go and he didnt turn there :/ i was like.. bhai jaan pechay murna tha.. and he was like.. oh acha. so he missed the turn and we had to take a u-turn from the next signal :S after that he missed the freaking turn again :| i was like bhai kiya hua kyun nahi mur rahay.. he said.. bhai app ko bhi sahee maloom nahi hay kaha jana hay. i was like.. dude look at the freakn board.. how more clear could it be. i directed him the way turn by turn... and i dont even live here :p kher finally reached the office and from there to the company residence. from my house in Karachi to the Residence in Lahore it took some 24 hrs.
