Resurrection

Been contemplating for a while whether I should write again or not. Still haven't decided, but I figured I'd at least give you an update.

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.

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. Enjoy:

I Heart Facebook

** Blog has moved to http://www.msb73.com/ **

There are many people who hate Facebook and hate the fact that it just contains way too much information about your life, friends, affiliations, etc.

I, however, have grown to love it. 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.

Yesterday, was the icing on the cake. My best friend from 3rd/4th grade tracked me down! Upon adding her, I found another friend from that time period whom I hadn't heard from since 1984!!!

Thank you Facebook.

Super Virus!

I used to take pride in the fact that I rarely used to get sick. My best streak was 3 years without getting ill.

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. Fingers crossed that I win.

Anyone else experiencing anything similar?

Hairy Matter

** blog has moved to http://www.msb73.com/ **

So when did big spiky hair become fashion for boys? (I say boys because I just cannot associate a 'man' with hair like that!)

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!

Step away from that gel! Please.

Matter of Trust

Some couples share their passwords as a sign of trust. 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!

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! There's nothing healthy about a relationship like that.

Another Year Bites the Dust!

**Blog has moved to http://www.msb73.com/ **

As each year approaches its end, I find myself bewildered at how fast time had flown. It surely can't be another year's end? I then recall what I had thought I'd accomplish during the year. Without fail, reality always falls short of my expectations.

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!)

Enjoy what's left of 2008! It's not over till it's over.

One Day

** Blog has moved to http://www.msb73.com/ **

One Day, I will go to the gym..
One Day, I will change my look..
One Day, I will clean my room..
One Day, I will visit all those countries on my 'to visit' list..
One Day, I will learn all those languages on my 'to learn' list..
One Day, the World will be a better place..
One Day, the stupid stock market will be green again..
One Day, that One Day will come!!

Annoying Sounds!

I was in the middle of a conversation when this noise in the background started to distract me. It was incessant and started to really get on my nerves. As I turned towards the source, I realized... it was my alarm clock waking me up from a dream!

Redirect!

So you think the World owes you something.. and you somehow think that you've done nothing to deserve what has happened to you. You feel like you're the victim and people just don't truly appreciate you for who you are and what you stand for.

Stop complaining!

If you feel you've gotten the short end of the stick, go and get a bigger stick. If you feel like he/she isn't treating you right, then either fix it or walk away. If you feel confused because you aren't sure where you stand, ask.

Yes, it's always easier said than done, but 'doing' isn't impossible. It just takes determination. So next time you start feeling sorry for yourself, use that energy to do rather than feel.

Iron Man

I wasn't sure what to expect with this movie, but I loved it. Robert Downey Jr was terrific! Not so sure about Gweneth Paltrow though.

Can't wait for the second part! Hope they maintain a similar standard.
