Conducted an interview. Interviews are such fun if you know where to look for the fun. Sometimes, it is fun to take a candidate who is too over-confident a peg or two down. But most of the time, you encounter people who are nervous and too eager to please. There have been times when i have felt bad for a candidate who cannot answer anything so i try to at least throw them an easy question or two just so that they do don’t feel disheartened.

Yesterday, i decided to clean the kitchen (instead of my wardrobe, the less daunting task of the two) and i spent almost 6 hours with a head smothered with henna scrubbing everything till the kitchen glittered. And i discovered that we can spend at least another year without buying anything – it is like we have been hoarding up on things as if a disaster was on the horizon. We have detergent, toothpaste, soap, mosquito repellent, all variety of cleaning agents (toilet, glass, floor etc etc. etc.), shampoo and whole lot of stuff that would last us nearly a lifetime!! Yah allah… We are like squirrels hoarding up for a long winter ahead.
