DESTINATION LAGOON ‘08

June 11, 2008… 07 Batch At Sunway Lagoon…Day in Review…

I ‘m on my way back after the super trip to Sunway Lagoon, looking out of the window of the van, and recalling all the hot pursuit this day brought…

It was fun, right from the word “go”…when we hassled to our respective points and finally reached the City Campus. And then the privileged visit by the bunch of “hooligans” into the City Campus, just for laughs gags! And then started the final journey, as we moved on towards the destination Lagoon, with the following entities present in our road ship;

Ali Riyaz [the shy guy!]..Oun [the dance guru!]..Farrukh Ahmed [organizer]..Tabish [organizer]..Arqam [co-organizer]..Abdul Basit [da hilarious Memon!]..Osama Khalid [a.k.a “slashDOT”]..Usama Jabbar [a.k.a “JB”]..Mustafa [a.k.a ”genie”!]..Fayzan [a.k.a “Deaden”]..Akif [da point manager!]..Hasan [the boy with the binocular eyes!]..Irtaza [tranquility!]..Aqib [burgerism spoiled!!]..Umer [a.k.a “Da Robot!”]..Shoaib [the builder!]..”Mr.Green”..Hamza [the football maniac!]..Xohaib [a.k.a “nerd”]..Danyal..[*he‘ll be defined later in this article*!!]..Talha [a.k.a “Robin Singh”]..Mus’ab [the enthusiastic Sopho]..Hasan [a.k.a “Sui”-the pin!]

The long expedition, in which we bade good byes to our very own, FAST, TIP, Steel town, Port Qasim etc, finally brought us to the water park, we had come to holiday at. And then came the joy of the splashing waters, acrobatic dives and stunts, the re-invented water polo/water rugby game etc. But one of the best was…The scene when Mr. David Beckham [Danyal], in his habitual fashion, misdirected his spot kick and mistakenly slammed a middle aged woman, instead of kicking it into the water pool! As a consequence, almost all the boys ducked into water, while some white collars, managed to bear the heat out of the angry woman’s mouth; with their faces covered by their hands!

It was fun all through, and how can we forget the pre-event stories of Tabish. The never ending stream of text messages that urged us to become addicts…An sms every now and then, showing his organizing concern: ”Every one, bring a water cooler”…”Does any one have a tea thermos?”…”The point won’t stop for anyone, so be there at time” …When all’s said and done, it was a phenomenal job done by the organizers who brought out something out of the extraordinary, in a mere two day’s time…And thanks to all who turned up, for putting up such a fabulous show…Thumbs up, party!
