So I’ve made my decision!

They say that do one thing everyday that scares you. I decided to join civil services for all the reasons it scared me to join civil service. I was scared of away from being away from the people I love, doing something as boring as accounts, scared of the atrociously low salary that the govt. officers are expected to survive on…scared of not being close to the one person who means more to me than anything else in the world…I was so scared…and I still am!!!

But they say that when you’re scared of the monsters in the closet…you need to muster up the courage to go and open the closet and see for yourself what is really there.

So I decided to do just that!

I still don’t know how this will work…I very honestly don’t!!

But I have made my decision. I hope Allah sees me through this…as He always has!!!

I went home this weekend and next week, saddy’s dholki’s are starting. Eagerly looking forward to that. I have selected my clothes already! I just have to manage how I will travel to Isloo from Lahore. My term ends this December inshaAllah.

Today my military attachment started and what I love the best is their tea breaks!!! Their snacks are better than the food we’re eating at CSA!

Other than that, we visited the Tenacious Ten and went onto the Army Aviations HQs. I sat in Mushaq and a helicopter! And it was fun!!

I still have 19 more days of military attachment and I resolve to have as much fun as I possibly can...inshaAllah : )
