Especially, the treadmills and not available, neither are the exercise bikes. The crowd coming there is cultured and they dont hog the machines for too long.<br /><br />I guess the place can do with a capable trainer.<br /><br />Cheers,Zarrarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9375697.post-37563823151768533402009-05-11T13:10:00.000+03:002009-05-11T13:10:00.000+03:00First Congratulations on your friends MBA I hope s...First Congratulations on your friends MBA I hope she have a great future. :)<br />Hilarious post! made me rofl seriously!.<br />I haven't been to any university graduation yet :P hopefully soon tough.<br />but i have been to my little sister 3ed grade excellent students honoring it was alot like you mentioned I laughed alot my mom kept pinching me to make me stop until some kid blow fire cracker Abdullahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16731754759276801567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9375697.post-60417634241873149852009-05-11T10:01:00.000+03:002009-05-11T10:01:00.000+03:00I laughed teeheeeehee.
