Blog EntryNews Update!Nov 12, '07 10:54 AM
for everyone
Hello Friends from all over the world!

Yes it has been sometime that i wrote anything about my life. There were many reasons for it. But anyways, i am back here to write more :-)

The news is that i have got admission in University of Applied Sciences (HWZ) for the 2 years weekend program of Masters of Business Administration here in Zürich, Switzerland. So, i guess no more travelling on weekends :-)

It is a (fucking!) expense University and every 4 months semester i have to pay 5000 USD fees (30,000 USD in total). Right now i am unemployed and I am desperately looking for a job in a 1000 KM radius of Zürich because i know once i get a high paid job i can easiyl afford to travel every weekend by train to Zürich for my MBA Classes.

A lot of my friends contacted me to know how is my family in Pakistan due to current political and security situation in the country. Thanks for your concern but Lahore, where my family lives, has been safe and they all are fine (Alhamdulilah!).

Tomorrow i am going to London for a very short (2 days) trip as i have to bring some of my bags from there back to Zürich and manage some other administrative stuff. I still love London but HATE - really HATE the British Administration. Today i had to call 6 places and explain my case 8 times before someone gave me correct information about a simple form that i needed from a UK Governments office. The work is still now done as they have asked me to fill in another form and send so many documents FIRST and formally request that particular form. hahaha! they drive me crzay!!! like Crzay :-))))))

Zürich is still the same. Expense & organized. Cold & Beautiful! Yesterday there was spring festival called Fasnacht. I didnt know it until i arrived at the main station to meet my friend, Daniel Sigrist. It was a terrible weather - rainy & windy but people were still playing music, singing & wearing colourful costumes. Daniel took me out to a nice restaurant where we had ITALIAN Dinner. He paid as it was my birthday present from him. Thanks DANIEL!!!

Tonight i am going to meet my friend Rolf's sister, Silvana - a beautiful swiss girl from the mountains. Our friendship has recently grown and this is the first time that we are going out together to watch the latest movie called: Lion for Lambs!

That's all for now.... i will try to write again soon.

<<<< Many Hugsss & Kisses >>>>

Cheers,
Umer or Alex - whatever u prefer to call me :-)

Interesting blog you have here. I found you on a search of Istanbul which is a city I both love and look forward to seeing again. Pakistan is also a city I hope to visit sometime if the climate ever seems safe enough again. It is always fun reading other world travelers journals as it sometimes helps me determine my next trip other times just relating to the occasional governmental snafu's etc. are somewhat reminiscent. Hope the job situation has stabilized and that the MBA is on track.
All the best!
