Still haven't decided, but I figured I'd at least give you an update.</span></p><p align="justify"><span style="color:#000066;"></span></p><p align="justify"><span style="color:#000066;">I'm moving to Dubai ! The past year has been turbulent, but I'm looking forward to this new adventure. I move in less than 2 weeks. As excited as I am about it, as much as I'll miss my family and friends. At least I'm close enough for regular visits.</span></p><p align="justify"><span style="color:#000066;"></span></p><p align="justify"><span style="color:#000066;">So, if any of you actually enjoy packing, I beg you to come help me! Otherwise, I'll leave you with these two links. You have to watch them in order.. warning though, they do contain some 'explicit' language.

I've been able to locate many people with whom I'd lost touch with over the years.. People I went to high school with and had no clue where life had taken them.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">Yesterday, was the icing on the cake. My best friend from 3rd/4th grade tracked me down!

My best streak was 3 years without getting ill.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:#990000;">This year is payback it seems! I've been sick 3 times already and I feel the 4th coming on. I'm taking meds and vitamins to try to fight off the bug before it totally takes over my system.

(I say boys because I just cannot associate a 'man' with hair like that!)</span><br /><br /><span text="tahoma," align="justify," style="color:#330000;">Regular spiky hair is fine, but have you gone to the mall recently? It's like they're competing against each other on who can get the higher standing, gel drenched, non-manly hair style possible!</span><br /><br /><span text="tahoma," align="justify," style="color:#330000;">Step away from that gel!

I know of girls who actually log on to their significant others' accounts (email, messenger, etc) and actually chat with people on their list without disclosing that it's her not him on the account - on a regular basis!</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">Here's a bit of advice: if you need to reach to those lengths to make sure he's not cheating on you, he should dump you faster than he can blink!

It surely can't be another year's end? I then recall what I had <em>thought</em> I'd accomplish during the year. Without fail, reality always falls short of my expectations.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:maroon;">This coming year, 2009, I will expect nothing. Surely, without expectations, one "shouldn't" get disappointed.. right? (Dammit! Expecting nothing is still an expectation?! Uff.. back to the drawing board!)</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:maroon;">Enjoy what's left of 2008!

My question is, how much is too much? How much can you tolerate - whether it be a person, a job, a situation you're dealing with? And has your tolerance level changed over the years?</span><br /><br /><span text="tahoma," align="justify," style="color:maroon;">Personally, I used to put up with so much. No clue how I did it. Eventually, I guess I realized how rare a commodity time is. Hence, my tolerance took a steep drop. Yet, I wonder sometimes, has it gone too far? How do you know when your tolerance level is too low and impractical?</span>MSBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00053473145938688454noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16272842.post-51456189422374980512008-05-03T15:16:00.002+04:002008-05-03T15:20:29.416+04:00Goggles!<span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">Throughout life, we meet many different types of people. Some who leave absolutely no mark, some who entertain us for a while, and some who leave ever lasting impressions. Regardless of the circumstances, it is important to meet all those different types as they help mold your outlook towards life and make you appreciate the good people in your life even more.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">Thing is, there are many times where we let our emotions and fears override everything else. Don't get me wrong, I'm an advocate of emotion. Without it, not much differentiates us from a rock on the street. Yet, we need to develop over time some sensor that enables us to control that emotion enough so that it doesn't rule our life. Why? Because emotions have a way of blinding our vision and making us take decisions that we may regret later on when the emotions have cooled off or subsided.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">That said, it's always easier said than done. It just takes time and experience to eventually teach us the hard way. For me, sometimes it's a matter of weighing things out and some people are just not worth losing over emotions that we can't control.</span>MSBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00053473145938688454noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16272842.post-43225868004191079202008-04-20T16:39:00.001+04:002008-04-20T16:40:56.847+04:00Are You in Denial?<span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">A few weeks ago I bumped into an old schoolmate I hadn't seen in ages. Stopped to say hello and how long it's been when she told me, "I know all about you!!" That caught me off guard.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">Her: "You have a blog, don't you?"<br />Me: "No!"</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">I have no idea why I said no! It was an automatic and instant response. </span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">She then explained how she came to that conclusion, all of which made perfect sense! But by then, I felt stupid. I couldn't go back and say, "Yeah, it's me. I lied." I had to continue denying it, all the while thinking "why?!" It's not like I write about anything personal or about anything I would mind others knowing about.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">So, this goes out to you, if you're reading. Yes, it's me! And yes, everything you said and your conclusions were right on! :)</span>MSBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00053473145938688454noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16272842.post-85917614941654051112008-04-07T05:01:00.000+04:002008-04-07T05:02:32.429+04:00Missed Me?<span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:#a00000;"><img title="317803-twin-towers-kuwait-0.jpg" alt="317803-twin-towers-kuwait-0.jpg" src="http://msb73.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/317803-twin-towers-kuwait-0.thumbnail.jpg" align="left" />Don't ask where I've been for the past two months.. cuz I wouldn't know where to begin to be honest.

I can understand in the past that age was a taboo because the style of life was very different. These days though, age is no longer an obstacle to anything (except some biological restrictions)!</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:maroon;">So, I am here today to celebrate age and the finer things that come along with it. I won't speak on behalf of men, so from a woman's point of view:</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:maroon;">* <strong><u>Less Tolerant</u></strong>: While that may seem like a negative thing, it's not. It's a blessing in disguise. No tolerance for stupidity, fake-ness, or pointless anything. Let's get down to business people.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:maroon;">* <strong><u>More Stable</u></strong>: We don't need anyone to reassure us of what we mean to them and how great we are. We are secure; we know our true worth and are comfortable with our flaws.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:maroon;">* <strong><u>Sense of Direction</u></strong>: We know where we are in life, what we want, and most importantly, what we don't want! We may not always know how to get there, but at least we have a direction in mind.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:maroon;">* <strong><u>Independent</u></strong>: We don't 'need' to be given things. We know how to get them ourselves. Of course, that said, it is still always nice to get stuff, so don't assume that we'll say no.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:maroon;">* <strong><u>No-Whining</u></strong>: We don't need to whine. We'll tell you how it is, straight up. We have no issues about being honest. It's up to you to decide what you want to do or not do about it. </span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:maroon;">The list goes on, but it's cold and this is as far as my brain can go at this point in time.</span></span></div>MSBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00053473145938688454noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16272842.post-5234237833595551862008-01-14T09:55:00.000+04:002008-01-14T09:59:38.664+04:00Hibernation<div align="justify"><img title="sbtiredslumpinchair.jpg" height="134" alt="sbtiredslumpinchair.jpg" src="http://msb73.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/sbtiredslumpinchair.jpg" width="156" align="left" /><span align="justify" text="tahoma" style="color:navy;">I don't mind winter but my body just doesn't react well to it!

As a result, their behavior totally changes. Our initial reaction, our impulse, tells us to get upset.. not to accept the change or the way they distance themselves, lie, or even deceive us. "But why didn't (s)he come to me? Why did (s)he not tell me?" </span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">When someone you love is going through a difficult time, it's important to check your emotions at the door in order to help them. It doesn't matter how what's happening makes you feel. You're not the one dealing with this situation. What matters, is that the person you care about is in trouble. Focus on them, their problem, and how you can help them out.. even if it means leaving them alone to sort things out.</span><br /><br /><span align="justify" text="tahoma," style="color:navy;">When you want to support someone, you should do it wholeheartedly.. or not at all.</span>MSBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00053473145938688454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16272842.post-26191482574670684162007-12-19T03:04:00.000+04:002007-12-19T03:07:31.849+04:00Happy Eid<img style="WIDTH: 426px; HEIGHT: 218px" height="316" alt="eid22.jpg" src="http://msb73.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/eid22.jpg" width="600" />MSBhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00053473145938688454noreply@blogger.com0
