Water Fall & Ipoh Parade

Yesterday some of the friends of Muanis (friend from Saudi) came to UTP from KL. So Muanis asked every one of us to join him while he go around Perak to show them the place. So here it was decided to GO to Water Fall Near Batu Gajah Toll in the city of Kamper. Never heard about this water fall before and never heard of this city before. Anyways we follow them, Me, Zain and Haider from Pakistan and rest of his friends from Yemen started our journey at 10 in morning on sunday. It took 1 hour to reach at the place (after asking the way from the people and finding the right direction). Before going to water fall, we tot to fill ourselves with some food. So we had a Brunch there at Mamak. I just took Nasi and one piece of Ayam and in drink Bundung. Well the Bill came out to be 5 Rm. I dont know May be they charged us more because we were foreigners or may be its the reasonable price. But for sure I pay less in UTP. What ever, we started from Mamak shop up the hill and drove for 15 minutes

Today while cleaning my old Book Shelf, I saw some old notes and Some previous Tests. There I found some notes on my past tests. I remember these were written by Sir Allah Bachayo Mathelo, one of the best Teacher. Since he was the greatest, he always admired me. The Note Said "Mr. Raheel Ahmed Shaikh. Well Done and Good Luck for Your Future. You have always made me Proud" Such words from some one who teaches you, are really motivating. Thank You Sir. May God Bless You always.

Next morning waking up in cold winter season was very difficult as well as delightful. when i came out of OTTAQ (Place for guests), I was astonished to see that the place was surrounded by Cows and buffaloes. At night I couldn't see a thing and every one was sleeping. but now all animals were hungry to be fed.. Sitting in open atmosphere and drinking hot tea was wonderful (watching animals eating and striving for food). After having chat with the family members of the host, we had visit of the fields and valleys, where wheat, cotton and sugarcane was cultivated. While visiting, I came to a place where I was told that my one step was at the One State Sindh, while my other foot was at the other State Punjab. .. .. . . . So I was Present at two places at one time.. Two different states. Was amazing to feel that .. . After visiting fields was the time to take bath. I came to know that in villages, not all the people use washrooms to take bath, instead they use Fresh W

After I reached at Mirpur, Aftab along with Javed was waiting for me at the Nisar Petrol Pump. While waiting for Sarfraz, the tea at the High Way Pass in winter was very necessary to keep warm. I visited Fauji Fertilizer Company's Colony for the first time along with sarfraz, the colony was well equipped with all the necessary things like Gym, sports courts, Swimming Pools and shopping malls. I never imagined having such a colony in a Village. The colony was build for the engineers and employers of the FFC. Playing cards with Sarfraz's elder brother Safdar was a huge fun. He was the best among us and being his partner benefited me alot. We played till 2.30 am and next morning was the plan to go for Shikar "hunting" at 7 am. . . . . . Well instead of 7 we left from the colony at 9 after fantastic breakfast. From the main highwasy, it took 1 hour to cover 25 km in village. I was very excited to cross Atta's village and so I called him to tell him how nice his villag

Initially I thought to make three posts with different names and different fonts for the three cities that i visited in 15 days but instead I chose to write one. I started off on 23rd December when I left hyderabad to goto Ghotki. Sindh state is basically an agricultural place and most of its area is surrounded by beautiful green fields producing food to feed the whole country. I being from Sindh, grew in city and never experienced a village life. But luckily most of the UTP friends came out to be villagers, and after their insisting for long time and due to my desire, i decided to take out time to visit the villages in interior SIndh... & now i feel it was worth visiting ...to be continued
