Finding Utopia that would be mine




Well my search for the stars and undiscovered horizons has lead me to the people who are trying to build a practical Utopia, although I have my own definition of Utopia and I am trying to settle for this so called practical Utopia (AKA Masdar City) but my unreplenishable desire to see the worlds beyond still remains inside me and I am planning my strategy to reach the destination unknown, hopefully I will get there someday feeling both happy and content ( which by the way I am incapabale of ). Well the picture somewhat shows the road to the valley of stars where I belong.

Finally at MIST

It has been a long wait but after reaching at MIST it was worth waiting. The first few hours at AD airport is an interesting story , all four of us have to wait to collect our visas, the airport officials were a bit sluggish and at the end of the three hour period we finally got our visas which were at terminal 1 . So we reached our villas around 3 am in the morning, so tired of waiting at the airport i laid down and fell asleep. Next day I meet alot of new students , they all seemed very welcoming and exhuberant. It has been 5 days since I left Karachi but so far the experience has been a joy ride comprising of trips and social gatherings and iftar dinners etc. But the utopia that i was looking for isn,t there and the most import things of all -the love for my family and my home town forces me to miss them alot. Since,
