Well slap me around and call me Susy, I actually made it to 3 posts!

So yeah today was...tiring and pretty boring. See the thing is my mom works in a university and most of the guests we have or the people we visit are lecturers...the really old ones. Oh and the university is an Islamic one so they are really old religious boring lecturers. The trend for all of the conversations is about the same.

Person A: So how are you doing?
Person B: Good. You?
Person A: Good

*30 second awkward pause*

Person B: So hows work?
Person A: Good. You?
Person B: Its alright

*1 minute awkward pause*

Person B: We had a new student today
Person A: That's nice

*Person A takes a very slow sip from their cup followed by 5 minutes of more awkward silence*

Person B: Sooo * insert reference to some event contributing to the Pakistan/India war* huh?
Person A: I KNOOW! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT???

*2 hours of non-stop war conversation pretty much word-to-word replica of the one they had last week.*

And that would be considered a very successful event.

We had a very successful event today. Except instead of 2 people having the above conversation it was like 20.

Ofcourse while the adults talk, the "kids" can goto another room and talk. Except the age for kids ranges from 6-25.

The thing about kids (the ones that are 6 and not 25) is that they can just talk to anybody they see expecting them to share the same interests as them (ever had the theme song for Power Rangers+wierd shows on cartoon network+high school musical be sung to you by a 6 year old) Yeah I didn't think so. Lucky bastard). I remember when I used to be like that.

I remember around 3 or 4 years back I went back to Pakistan for my uncle's wedding and stayed in the same house as my cousins. I have a cousin who is three years older than me and one about the same age. I remember when I had gone there 2 years before that time I had connected really well with the older one and we had a blast as kids but now he seemed all mature to me and eventhough we stayed in the same house for more than a month I probably didn't say more than 2 sentences to him but I had a blast with the one the same age as me. I remember thinking that I'll never get that boring and mature and yet here I am. Maybe its just me, but socializing seemed much easier when you thought sex was a kind of animal (I realize that 4 years back I would have been 13 and been on the "lolsex" stage but you get the point).

Maybe some day as much as I hate to admit it I'll be sitting around talking about war and how work is and making lame jokes that my kids would pretend they didn't hear (hear that guys? I'm gonna have kids! ZO GONNA GET LAID). But for now I think I'll just stick with making lame jokes on purpose and having simple conversations about booze and boobs.

(WARNING: NEXT UPDATE WILL BE ABOUT CRICKET. WANTED TO POST IT NOW BUT THOUGHT I'D GIVE YOU GUYS A HEADS UP FIRST....AND I WANTED TO TYPE IN CAPS. BUT REALLY ITS MAINLY BECAUSE I'M TIRED *COUGHLAZYCOUGH*)
