Warning - You might be super jealous after reading this post. FYI, I am wearing an evil eye bracelet to protect myself ;)
So, did you see the ICC World Cup 20-20 Semi-Final between India and South Africa? India won...Yippeee!! So, would you be watching the Final match on Sunday? I will be watching too. Just that... I will be going to Dhaka and watching it LIVE from the Sher-e-Bangla stadium!!!!

No, no, no. This is no April Fool prank. Let me tell you what happened: A few days back the Boy entered a lucky draw happening on
our cable subscription website. There were a hundred lucky winners and we were
two of them. Why two? – well, it’s a long story which ends in two mammoth discount booklets
instead of one. We sold off one. Yes, we made a profit from a very useful prize!
He got so excited that he entered all lucky draws that
were/are suppose to happen on that site. One of the prizes was 2 of 10 tickets, return flights by Emirates and a 5-star hotel stay for ICC
Twenty-Twenty world cup final in Bangladesh (mind you, the teams are staying in the same hotel!). We did not win the first draw.
Apparently someone canceled and we got lucky. So now, you can look for me when
you watch the match!!
This weekend was suppose to be awesome in Bahrain as well. The biggest annual event of the country is on and we had bought the best seat tickets for Formula 1 race. This year they have scheduled a night race with Scorpions and Avicii as performers. We were damn excited for that too. So this news did not excite me at all. The Boy then convinced me that this Dhaka thing was FREE!! Plus, obviously it was cricket. And so I prayed for the likes of Dhoni, Virat, Yuvraj, Jadejas and several others whom I don't know at all to do well and reach the finals.
I've been glued to the matches since we got the news. When India won the semi-final I was jumping with joy. I just wanted to hug and kiss Virat Kohli! Seriously, I've never been this excited for a match! I don't know how excited I will be if India wins the World Cup as well. Anyway, now that I've made you jealous enough, I leave you all with a recent picture of us. If I do manage to come on the screen, I might laugh out really loud. Please clap for me!
