My best friend, My Sister Sistur is one of the best people in my life who have inspired me. She kind of raised me through my journey in college but still, she offers her juice bottle to me for opening. Still, I'm the one owning the title "Sughard" ('Skillful' in Urdu) in my group.
I'm the best one at surprising my loved ones. For me, the definition of surprise is very STRICT. The person doesn't have to have an inch of doubt about it! You don't have to SHOW OFF about or give any hints of surprise.
Although, 'us' girls are quite good at spoiling surprises and not keeping a word of NEWS in our empty stomachs. Aren't we? But, I'm quite good at keeping surprises. In fact, I'm the one planning all the surprises.
I talk a lot, Don't I?
What have I planned for her?
Her birthday is 20 November.
She has been texting me for the last 4 days... Since our colleges are closed [Bad NEWS: Tomorrow, It's open], She asked me about "What's going on?" and stuff. But I didn't reply. Yesterday, she called me and I didn't pick up. I got my Mom to tell her that I was really mad at her! So did my Mom. She then, texted me: "At least tell me what are you mad at? Did I do something?" To which I replied," Something unexpected! And I'm hurt. I won't tell you here, even if you asked me a 1000 times"
Yikes! I talked with her with a tone I'd never used... That was offensive but I had to do it for the surprise. Now, I'm 100% sure that she's thinking that I'm mad at her, and don't wanna talk to her.
Meanwhile, in reality; I'm planning her birthday surprise. I'm not gonna share it now. Because you're gonna skip reading(I've already written a lot!)
But I can show ya'll her gifts and an adventure that I've planned for her! Comment down, If you want me to share it with you guys.

Back in 2008, a few months later, after I came into this strange world, he inaugurated his small startup school with zero students but a million hopes. He says that our school was a gift that God gave us because you came into our lives. We were not financially better at that time. So he bought a place with several rooms that were okay for him to represent as school.

As Life Goes Hobbies Go
Hobbies are everywhere around us, as they always have been no matter how we live our lives. Have we ever thought about how life goes along with our hobbies or does our life go along with our hobbies? Yes there are questions regarding this that I have been asking myself for years. Yes Hobbies are all around us, as we live our lives and yes as the way we live our life changes so do our hobbies and that is why we have so many hobbies in life. Hobbies are a great thing to have in life, as we all know because hobbies give life variety. As life goes on so do our hobbies because without hobbies life would be pretty boring. Life is meant to be fun and exciting boring things are slow and nobody likes a slow life do they? No they don’t or at least I notice that they don’t. So keep living the life that you want to live and you will feel great. The more you do the hobbies you enjoy the more you will get out of life. Do reading, if that is what you like, write blog posts if you like that, exercise. The list can go on and on, as hobbies are always different for each and every person who does them.

A Failed Artist, A Disillusioned Poet, An Underpaid Game Show Host
I took my son and niece to Gori, a small town in Georgia where Joseph Stalin was born. They talked me into visiting the Stalin's Museum, the largest in the post-Soviet space. I had resisted going there because I just can't stand the monster and know enough about him, or so I thought.

I went through the whole story to find surprise and it is the only thing I failed to find here 😄
Wow, I can see how much thought and effort you’ve put into planning this surprise for your sistur! You’re going above and beyond to make her feel special. That little moment when you had to be a bit stern shows how much this is truly a unique birthday surprise I bet this will be an experience she’ll always remember. I’d love to hear all about the gifts and adventures you have planned if you’re up for sharing! It sounds like such a fun and unique birthday surprise! By the way, your poetry and handwriting are absolutely beautiful, Sister!
Hrhehehehehe I hope she likes the surprise! Can't wait to know what you've planned for her
I really want you to share this adventure!!
Beautiful story
Oh my gosh, this whole story is so wholesome and hilarious at the same time! You're such a Sughard for pulling off this level of dedication for her surprise—seriously, props to you! That fake "mad at you" act is genius and brutal in the best way possible. Can’t wait to hear about her reaction and see what you’ve planned—it’s gonna be epic, I just know it! Sistur is lucky to have you! 😄👏💖
To have such a beautiful bond with your friend is a wonderful thing!💕✨ "Although, 'us' girls are quite good at spoiling surprises" That's true, sometimes girls are quite chatty, but if it's important, we can keep quiet too!😅
Awww that's so lovely and exciting!!! I myself do it with my lovely sister you kinda reminded me when we guys we're together few months back😌 she will be getting married soon... I am happy but also sad😭😭😭
