Dear Waqas
I am really sorry to hear about your father. I only met him once but I liked him vey much. Sadly the liver transplant operations are not going vey well for most of the patients. Anyhow its Allah,s will and we just cannot do anything in this regard. May Allah grant him His blessings and rest his soul in peace.
Comming to your birthday, now you are 18. Thats a good time to get driving license ans go for a spin in some hot car. Enjoy your birhthday.
Since last year things have changed at my end also. I have completed my contract with Hyundai Motors and now will be joining Airbus Reserach Group in Beijing. The other choice is to move to Pakistan and join National Univ of Science and Tech. Lets see how things happen in month or so.
Hope to see you again sometime in China or in Pakistan or may be in KSA as I am also planning to come for Umra sometime in 2007 (Insh Allah).
