Life changed in the past few years soooo fast that feel like i m still spinning around. But I am getting my feet on the ground, growing my circle here day by day. I am still in touch with all my group mates of NED who are Sadaf, Arfa and Madiha, Asim, Ammad, Talha, and more. Sadaf is in UK, Arfa is in Karachi, Madiha is in Canada, Asim is here in Chicago, Ammad is also here is Connecticut, Talha is in Dubai these days. I dont know if you remember Faraz Zuberi he is also in Dubai. Well there is a huge list I am still touching base with so you can tell I am totally opposite now of what a reserved feline I used to be in NED :-)
Its really wonderful to see you have a daughter, and for some reason your husband seems so familiar. May be I have worked for IUCN so I've seen active people like him there.....when I saw his profile I was wondering he seems so familiar person. Anyways, I hope I have given you the updates of my world around. And yes, Omair Qureshi is also in my friend's list since he was from Mech. you might know him well. By the way this meathead has been absconding from his friends for years since we passed out from NED. I dont know how he added me here, probably an accident heheheh check him out :)
Good to see you here. I hope you remember me. This is Asim, friend of Zehra, Ahsan and Omair.
