Define Love

Is it that "breathless-ness" feeling you get when you see them? That loud beating in your heart when they look at you? That instant smile that flashes across your face when you see their number on your phone? That glow in your eyes when you hear someone mention their name? Or is it knowing how bad they are for you and yet not being able to shake them out of your system?

Baby Talk

Ok, so when did baby talk make a come back?! I've noticed several people lately using baby talk in communicating.. whether it be in real life or online. Last I checked, Samantha ("Sex & The City") was going crazy when her mate of the moment used baby talk in bed =)

Here's my survey question: Baby Talk.. yay or nay?

Survival of the Fittest!

Dealing with morning traffic has turned into a game of Russian Roulette!

I can't believe how congested our streets have become. It is getting worse day by day. I attributed last week's chaos to people's return from vacation and schools starting up again. But the last couple days have been horrendeous.

Sad thing is, it doesn't matter what time I leave home. If I leave 5 minutes before or after, it's just as bad. I take this short cut or that short cut, I'm still stuck playing the 'THIS IS MY LANE.. BACK OFF' game. And we all take it personally! I get annoyed when someone tries to cut in front of me. They get annoyed when I don't let them cut in front of me. And then, of course, you have your odd person on crack who's driving slower than he could walk!

I give up.. I honestly, give up. No science, no math, no luck, no nothing seems to help in solving this problem.

So, anyone know how much a helicopter costs these days?!

Shahr El Khair

My favorite time of year is almost upon us. Approximately 15 days till Ramadan! Can't wait.

There's something so amazing about how that month feels. I'm not talking about the tv programs, tent outtings and night programs people go out to. I'm talking about the spirituality of that month and the peace that one feels when he/she immerses his/herself into the true meanings behind that month.

Embarak 3laikom el shahar, moqadaman!!

To Quit or Not to Quit

Got this test from Fractal's blog. Definitely had to take it, even though I already knew the answer.

Your Job Dissatisfaction Level is 83%

Your job is a disaster - it's surprising you've lasted this long. You need to quit if you can, even if you don't have another job lined up. As far as stressful work situations go, yours is off the scale brutal. Almost any job would be better than what you've got!

Should You Quit Your Job?

Hope to be able to quit by early next year. Prayers welcomed!

Past Tense

Phone rings.
I hear your voice.
Throws me back in time.
An immediate smile spreads across my face.

Then it hits me.
It's not you.
It's where your voice
Takes me.

A decade and a half ago.
Back to a time when I was young,
When I was carefree,
When life seemed so much bigger.

It was so much easier then,
Yet so much harder to deal with.
I hang up the phone
And smile again.

I wonder
Another decade and a half from now
What I would say about how things seemed
Today.

Black or White

Certain events and how we respond/react to them define our character. Others, define our moral fiber. While it may be easy to look the other way in the first instance, it is very difficult with the latter.

Who we are is one thing. What we stand for, what we believe in, what we would die for, is another story all together. At the end of the day, not everything has a gray area. Some things are purely black or white.

June: I'm going to miss you and miss our conversations. Remember, I'll always be merely one thought away! Take good care of yourself! Be good! =)

Work It

I had tried many different ways to lose weight. None of which were very effective. Finally, a few months back, I tried calorie counting. That worked! I lost over 11 kgs.

I used to tell my family/friends that the more sleep you get, the better your chances of maintaining/losing weight. No one believed me. Well, I finally got them the proof!!

For those of you interested, or those bored, Click Here! It's a link to a calorie calculator for over 70 activities! Enjoy..

Blast from the Past

For some odd reason, I've been getting a lot of flashes from the past lately. A friend and I were discussing a few of those things, so I thought I'd share some of that with the rest of you:

* Remember one of the best arcade games, ever? PACMAN! Click on the link. LOVE the sounds!
* How about Asteroids?
* Rubik's Cube anyone?

*sigh* at least the internet can bring those memories back!
