Documented for Posterity

The best chussis are utter accidents ... and I solemnly believe that they should be documented! Here's an exchange, which took place on facebook, as always after 3am in the morning.

For those who don't understand Urdu, I've translated into English at the end of the post ... though that DOES take away the essence of it

What is a 'Chussi' you ask me?
Here is a wiki entry by one of the masters himself!

Without further ado ...

Adeel Rizvi at 2:50am October 17

Wajiha Said at 2:52am October 17

in that case a normal sized one will work too! -_-

Adeel Rizvi at 2:53am October 17

Why normal? Does he need to put something else in it as well? small would be better

Wajiha Said at 2:54am October 17
Yea what if he wants to keep a pillow or quilt etc as well? We don't want him to catch a cold!

Adeel Rizvi at 2:55am October 17

lol then its okay. Otherwise a wallet could have made do as well

Wajiha Said at 2:56am October 17

No a wallet wouldn't have worked! Where would the 5 rupee coin fit then? The new bank notes aren't available yet cuz state bank is useless!

Mohsin Attaur Rehman at 2:58am October 17

The poor guy only wanted to get a backpack ... just a backpack :O

Adeel Rizvi at 3:02am October 17

yea so we are helping him decide ^_^

Wajiha Said at 3:03am October 17

Ali Mohsin at 3:18am October 17

@wajiha and rizvi:

Honestly how free are you!!! :P

Wajiha Said at 3:20am October 17
We don't mind coming but then your dual sim mobile is not going to work ... will be permanently corrupted -_-

Adeel Rizvi at 3:20am October 17
Ali Mohsin has gotten pissed off. Has come down to bad chussis :P

Wajiha Said at 3:21am October 17
Well as if he ever managed to move up to good chussis that he'd come down to bad chussis now?

Adeel Rizvi at 3:23am October 17

Ali Mohsin at 3:43am October 17

Wajiha Said at 12:28pm October 17

you know that is why the large hardon collider is not working! they gave it this problem! a little too much for the machine's capacity!

for your past *click* *here*

So I have a counter on my blog, which as is obvious counts the visits to here, and also comes bundled with a number of features including where the recent visitors came from and also the referring URL. While I was randomly clicking away at the referring URLs, one of them was a google search for I-T (Iqbal Talaat Bhatti's) blog. So I clicked away from link to link and this is what I stumbled across:

this blog → my statcounter page → Google search: "Iqbal Talaat Bhatti's blog" → youtube result for Iqbal Talaat Bhatti (movie alpha) → Similar vidoes on youtube → *some more clicking* → Batch12 GIKI welcome add → Batch12 GIKI farewell video.

So here it is. Some things I can say about: "I was there when it happened"

Batch12 GIKI Welcome Ad (2002)

Every year, the freshman batch in GIKI is welcomed in by the junior year batch. Typically it includes publicity, multimedia advertisements, all leading to the weekend of the welcome show and the concert. So in 2002, my batch i.e. batch12 (class of 2006) was welcomed in by batch10 (class of 2004). And here is the welcome add that they made for us:




Batch12 Farewell Video (2006)

So like the welcome, the farewell to the senior year is given by the Sophomore year. We did it for Batch10 in 2004 and Batch14 did it for us in 2006. Crofty (Saad Sadaruddin Khan) and Polly (Fahad Rasheed) surprised the rest of us Batch12 people with the following dedication to the batch. Reflects croft's skill at flash and polly's eye for photography and ear for music. It was an emotional 4 minutes 39 seconds for the 170 or so people in the auditorium. Here it is:




About Movie Alpha (sometime in the dark ages between 2002 and 2006, actually the 5th semester)

There are no words to describe this piece of work which I-T, Basim, Babarman, Rizvi and some other people in my batch found the time and brainwave to make back in the 5th semester. Here it is, and you have been *sufficiently* warned!
