Hamari Pehchan Hamara Pakistan

With so much negativity floating around the country, inflation, corruption, terrorism and the never ending list, it’s extremely important for the people to have something to keep them connected with the country. To show them what our true identity is. It is crucial for us to know what makes us Pakistanis stand apart from the crowd.

Dolmen Mall took an initiative this year and decided to show not only the people of the country but across the globe to show what Pakistan actually is via their digital campaign #HamariPehcan.
Via a series of posts on social media and a grand Independence Day program they managed to capture hearts of millions. At 12 midnight on 14th August famous pop band Noori sang National Anthem at Dolmen Mall Clifton which was an extremely moving moment for the jam-packed
mall. Check out the video to see if for yourself.

Goodbye Slow speed Internet , Hello Storm Fiber

I am a digital buff. I am the one person who has to be online 24/7 no matter what the conditions are and where I am. However living in Pakistan that is only a dream i.e. 24/7 connectivity that also with decent speed.  It’s a nightmare when I have to stream a show online or am trying to upload a video. At times reading an article becomes a hassle because it takes ages to upload.

Over the time period, I have switched my internet connection gazillion times in search of that one connection which will help me stay connected. Recently I came across StormFiber internet connection. Although I heard it from friends that it sounds promising and few who here using it were swearing by it still I had some serious doubts until I used it myself.

I cannot go back to the landline and other internet connections were after StormFiber because of
1.       Affordability
2.       Fast Speed
3.       Seamless connectivity
4.       TV & Phone option


Although it’s not yet available across Karachi but do pray it comes to your area soon. Check their website out for more details. https://www.stormfiber.com/

Which School Gear Items to Customize


The best part about going back to school for me was the chance to get new stationery and school gear! Yes, going back to meeting friends and enjoying the school like was important but nothing can beat the joy of new stationery and the smell of new books.

As a kid I always used to wonder what if I could customize my school gear. Yeah we had the options to opt for the cartoon characters or go color coordinated with the bag, water flask, pencil case and other stuff but I always wanted to have a bit more.

Think city specific stationery, or country. Or stationery based on your favorite book. How cool would that be?

If it were to me and I was going to school in this high-tech era, I would definitely customize the following school gear:

-          Customized backpack is a must have. Show what you stand for, who you are!
-          Customized stationery is a great icebreaker and conversation starter. Your cool pens and pencils will definitely get you the right kind of attention in the class. Try it!
-          Flasks are important, staying hydrated during school days is a must. Customized flasks would definitely be a cool accessory for all the kids.
Most of these, I’d still want for my travel, writing and unconditional love for reading!

What are some things that you’d want to customize?
