Lord forgive me for complaining about weather. The last 2 days have been beautiful!! I appreciate it. I get mopey when the weather is miserable.
Went for my little sponsored walk today. I don't mean the walk was little, it took a little over an hour to get to Fletcher Moss Gardens but it was worth it!! Just, mashallah subhanallah and alhamdulillah if you get me. Even saw a pair of turtles swimming around in a pond. Was very cute! Especially when one peeped its ickle head up out of the water :D Also met a stripey cat. Amazing looks but a little strange, had a tendency to head-butt the hand that was about to pet it. Slightly on the scary side but it didn't bother me. I'd take it home if I could. I WANT A KITTEN!! But I'm not allowed. God, I feel 5 years old when I put it like that but its like that and thats the way it is!
Made a big chocolate cake yesterday. Well spent 3 hours on it yesterday and about another half hour or so today. Don't make fun, it was a layered cake and turned out pretty neat. Till it was transferred into containers for storage purposes that is. :( Its sad when things like that happen. Like watching a strong adult turn into a frail elderly person...
Oooh, and I found out where to find proper 'english' clothes in Bangladesh! Dhaka of course. One place called Bongo bazaar and the other one is near the uni apparently so I guess I'll have to get my uncle to investigate! But this sounds like potential fun. I didn't buy much in terms of clothes this year so cheapo clothes in bangladesh sounds very very appealing. *drools* May have to hide them from the elder sister though. Shopping in the desh is like a battle: out in the heat, thumpy bumpy rickshaw ride, nearly get run over whilst trying to cross the road, dodging open drains deviously scattered about hither and thither. Thats all just a warm up before reaching the 'market'. Then there's raking through the faecal matter to get to the good stuff and pretending you don't like it all that much so you have an advantage in the haggling war! And I want to keep my war booty thank you very much! :) Charming? Yes I know I am.
