Hey it's been so long!! Now I have decided that instead of writing long posts( which have to be planned), I will try to write whatever is going on in my head so as not to be absent for so long..
Today I saw Fatima Bhutto's interview at CNBC. I had seen her speech at Sydney's writers fest earlier, but today I was even more impressed by her charisma! She is the estranged niece of Benazir Bhutto, who lives in U.K and is vocal about the destructive politics happening in Pakistan.
You actually come across a handful of individuals who posses beauty with brains(I definitely do not find every second girl easy on the eye as some of my guy friends do :P). So coming back to Fatima, her speech was frank, spoken with style and aplomb which only true leaders posses, with excellent command over english, and if I were a guy I could have spend the time by just gazing at her.. ( I can imagine the jokes I may have to suffer for this line, but the truth is for all to see ;)
Also she shared my views on Pakistan, I guess she was speaking only the truth. She starts with facts and figures about Pakistan, degrading political situations, terrorist activities and gave the real picture.
Well there are very few people whom I start admiring so easily, and she is now in my list. In her interview she exuded positive aura, with her elegant smile in place and gave the perfect answers.
After that and some time spent(or wasted :-l) googling about her, I now have 2 books on my list of "Want to read" books ( 8:50 a.m. and Songs of Blood and Swords... The "should read" list is another story( which often remains forgotten)
Anyways, here is the link of her impressive speech for those of you in whom I generated an iota of interest Fatima Bhutto's Speech :)
Cheers,
