Daddy-dear left!
Assalamualaikum,
Aajke abbur bd jabar flight. Insha Allah he will get there by 2moro shokal our time. Ek maash thaka plan niye jache. Then he will return to sydney on 6th December insha Allah. He wouldnt let us go to the airport and wont let us go 2 pick him up. Since we live right across the station and there i train travel available right to the airport, so he prefers to give us that break even tho we were all willing 2 go with him!
It was so cute! Ammur chokhe pani chole eshechilo! And b4 abbu left he said bye to ammu and held out his hand for a handshake but ammu didnt take his hand. Rather she gave him a HUGE hug! She didnt come to the station with me and abbu. Abbu only wanted me 2 go 2 the station with him so I cud help him with the luggage. But ammu was still across the road and waited there until abbu got on the train and then left for work. But in that time they exchanged waves and smiles from across the street like 10 times! And this is a 60 second journey i'm talking abt, lol.
I remember teasing ammu abbu abt each other so much. Once we changed the banner on abbu's fone to "Shelley amar" and when he found out and changed it, we changed it back to "Ami Shelley'r", lol. Just thos morning I took a foto of ammu and one of abbu with ammus fone andI saved ammu's one as "shundori" and abbu's one as "jaan", lol.
I feel so sorry 4 abbu, he has with him 3 HUGE shopping lists. One 4 me, one 4 me sis and one 4 ammu. Bechara. I told him not 2 do the shopping. Just give the lists to my girl cousins and bhabis and mamis. They'll be better at these things insha Allah. U wanna c my list?
- 6 salwar kameez
- 4 sharees
- 1 long skirt
- Roopchorcha stuff like uptan, fair and lovely, mehendi,......
Me sis has the same list. We had to modify it so many times 2 get it this short. B4 it was like 5 times this size, no joke! I dont care if he duznt get all this. All i ask is him 2 b safe. I've heard some scary stories about people going 2 bd from here. Please make dua 4 him ppls. The he remains safe.
U no the funniest thing, actually a good thing. Abbu started praying from today alhamdulillah and intends to keep it up in BD insha Allah. I was so happy when he told me :D May Allah make him successful in his intentions. Ameen.

Miss Brainiac (not being sarcastic)... you have problems slowly being solved... and I have preoblems slowly coming to light.
See, this person I know has found some monster friends, but she doesn't realise that her "friends" are, in fact, monsters. (Bear with me, even thought I'm using a childish analogy).
Hmm... I need names...
Let's call "this person I know" Credit, and this other person I know Card... and the new frieds can be "The Monsters".
So where was I? Yes- Credit doesn't realise that "The Monsters" are going to "eat her up"! (not literally)... and Card & I have been wracking our brains with ways to stop Credit from being eaten... (read: we're trying to stop Credit from losing her Islam... in some ways).
So, how does one go about doing this?? Usually, I'm the one being directed, not the actual director.
EEK! What a predicament and a half!! SO HEEELP! Preferebly before it's too late!
9:40 pm
Lordy! I must be exhausted- so many typos! I gnore them... and all the grammatical mistakes... and all the typos in this post that I really can't be bothered going back to fix...
yes- I'm bored... taking a break from studying Chem... an ongoing break... 30mins. & counting.
:S

Comment was mostly directed at Ishi, who is the solver of problems.

Lol, emu, i did add jewellery to the list. in fact i wanned 4 jewellery sets each with each sharee along with chooris with the set :D OK fine i'll get rid of the word verificattion thingo insha Allah.
em, that sounds so freaky! insha Allah i'll inform abbu but he might already no abt it coz he's pretty skilled at surviving in bd, lol.
okies flynn, i'm no pro with advice but i've been in ur exact same position but i was like super best frends with credit so i felt much worse. What i think u need 2 try doing is get 2 credit very indirectly. Like card can make extra effort spending time with Credit. But u shudnt make it obvious. Like if she gets any hint that u are trying 2 get 2 her islamically and 2 separate her from the monsters she will hate u 2 for a LONG time! Get card to do normal things with her. Things she does with the monsters but keep it islamic. So she knows that there are islamic ways to have fun. U get me? Anyways, i'll prolly call u up soon insha Allah coz i need 2 discuss something else with u anyways, then u can tell me more, OK?
2:46 pm
hurrmmm, it seems to me that flynn is quite worried about her Credit, ... in a punny sort of way ...
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, i kill myself!!!
9:35 pm
tomra baki-ra jaoni keno? Eto shari and gohonagati...biyer jonno prostuti niccho naki?
10:19 pm
hehe, biyer jonno prostuti nare apu shona, just shaju gujur jonno. I absolutely LOVE dressing up! But usually not alone, like with other people. I dont have any1 at home who dresses up with me :'(
Also, hopefully all those weddings that i am hearing abt in bd at the end of the year will be followed by a reception here insha Allah. So i must be prepared 4 that! hehe :P
3:24 pm
maaan, i really don't fall under the category of "emu = emu when she functions normally". I try to get ammu to dress up, which she does with little hassel. but when it comes to me dressing up, most of the time we both end up going in flames.
lolz - "ami shoshur bari jai ga..."; very cute, indeed.
12:08 am
ps - freaky thing, this handshaking business. when we went to bd, i was almost about to pay about 2/3 times more to make a fone call. that was the closest to 'baddies' experience i had, alhamdulillah.

Friendly customs?? From what I've heard customs here are worse than in the US. Hmm... actually, I wouldn't know- I've never been out of Aus. OMG- I haven't actually gone out of Aus, since I landed here :S !!
My list: DVD's... SnowMan MUST bring the DVD's I want. A laptop (for me, not Ash) would have been good, but I don't want a dodgy one from BD, I'll just save up to get one from here... shouldn't be too hard to save up 3-5 grand, right? Ummm... my Mum insists that I'll need some kameez & stuff, but I'm not that worried... if she wants to spend for me, then I'm not one to complain ;).
Ok- like, how LAME is that?? You lot are on about FOOD??? As if we're lacking food??
And I must add, rice (no matter what flavours they add to it)- is NOT Flynn's thing! EEEWWWW- I canNOT believe people eat it 3 time a day- I choke if I see it 3 time a WEEK!
Sheesh, there's a whole world of food available at your fingertips, and you lot want this acha and biriyani stuff!
PS- Ishi, I'll call you sometime next week, so we can discuss why u didn't wait up for me on Friday! (y'know- I was rushing to catch the early train for you, but then I got your SMS... so Shay, Jan & I had lunch).
And I missed Kid-Nid/Hablu as well!! Soooo disappointed...
:(
PPS- sorry about the HUGE comment, but seeing as I'm FREE....
:D

"u kno u'r a bangali when u bring the following from overseas:
- gura moshla (approx. 1.5 kg) - including jira, dhoina, morich, holud gura)
- lachchha shemai
- tetul and boroi achar (don't know about the tetul, but boroi wasn't that good)
- radhuni halim mix (didn't taste better than Shan)
- cha pata - ground tea leaves (gift form the store cos he bought so much moshla)
- a nice mug from another store (again, a gift from another store)
- some special dal-er gura for ilish machh (?)"
that's all the food stuff abbu brought. oh yes, there was also the jolpai-er achar, which i'm banned from touching cos i finished almost half of it.
wow, flynn, 3-5 grand... i'd b ecstatic over one worth 2 grand. just fyi, if they'r from well-known companies, laptops most likely won't be dodgy, just cheaper. but beta to be on the safe side. but u can skip paying the tax for ur laptop if u buy it 3 mnths b4 going over seas.
em, u'r scaring emu. what do/did u study? - Bachelor of Rice Management? porimito khaoa bujhlam; but porimito khaoa with otirikto tel?
deshi or bideshi, food is good; especially flynn's date cakes and la bell.
4:59 pm
"Bachelor of Rice Management"
LOL!!
AHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
That's my new MSN nick!! FOR SURE!!
And HP: lau shak! ??????
OK- ULTIMATE BANGALI CLASSICS!! But the Bachelor of Rice Management tops it! Only EMU could ever think of something like it!
LOL!!
:D
10:27 pm
flynn: lau=kodu
kodu=?
hmm, does anyone know the english of lau?

great. *ahem* ... bottle gourd, yes, ok. so now it's "jei lau, shei bottle gourd". (aaaaaahahahahaha, i kill myself ... *sniffs & wipes away tears of laughter*)
ur porimito khawa with otirikto tel explanation was scarier than bottle gourd. had to read it twice for it to register. made sense, but i was talking about the extra, ie. otirikto, tel being used. ki ar kora, dotana-r modhdhe pore thaki ... (must excuse me if i don't make sese. the "country downunder" is getting hot, which doesn't agree with me poor head).
hp, what's wrong with australia's lau shak? shak is shak. lolz at "ami shoshur bari jaiga". me mum cracked up.
bangali food is way too over-rated amongst bangalis! Some people won't even touch other types of food! - soooooo true ash! i once made a lovely, bon apatit type pasta salad with raw zuccini and i got such a reaction from my family! mother dear took out the zuccini and put 'em in my plate, which i was fine with cos i loooove raw zuccini.
4:43 pm
I give up!! This Banglish is waaaay too hard for me. I mean, what the...??? What on earth is this promitito or something?? And ever time I read "tel" I think "tel", as in "telephone" or as in the "telly" (telivision).
PS- Ishi, the solver of all problems... huryy up & finish your exams! My problems are only getting WORSE!!! Yipes. I HATE glue & sticky situations! Oh what a mess!
