Yesterday there was a brownout in the area where my office is situated. It happened around 11:30 am. Usually the generator starts within few seconds in such kinda situation but yesterday the generator was out of order. So there was no electricity in our office. We were sitting in front of our pc without power in it :D I was missing talking with Liz because awhile ago I was talking with her through gmail chat though I had much workload :P We, all the coworkers, were sitting and gossiping but getting bored.
There is a lake near my workstation called Gulshan Lake. Suddenly one of my colleagues, Polin vi, proposed to have a boat trip in that lake. We were not agreeing with him at first. We were telling that the water is very dirty. But he kept bugging us and at last started to pester. Finally 3 of us agreed to go with him and I was one of those 3 persons :)
We went to the lake, hired a boat for 30 mins for 40 taka. We roamed around the lake for half an hour. There were so many slums around the lake. While on the boat Polin vi was shouting from time to time (actually singing but not in a nice tone :P ). The weather was gloomy and no wind at all. So it was a bit hot. Though the environment was not so good yet we enjoyed the trip; it was fun. Polin vi paid for the trip. So it became more pleasant for rest of us :P :P :P It was an exceptional refreshment during office hour which is rarely found :)
