BFF . . .










So I decided to do something fun for my BFF's birthday. I took her to Cafe Ceramique (something we've never done before), i mean i've been there, but didn't do any of the pottery art thing before. She welcomed the idea and man did we have fun ! We felt like 7 year old girls playing with colors to celebrate our friendship. We've been friends for 10 years now =)

I did the plate for her and she did the tissue box for me . . .

The one thing I hated is that the cafe was out of Mugs, so we had to go with other items and they restrict you to few colors and most of them are so dry. I'm telling u, my triceps are ripping the sleeves of my abaya now from all the squeezing I had to give to those dry tubes !

We see our friends and talk to them all the time, yet we forget how valuable they are and how good it is to just have them around, maybe because we take things for granted that they become a "regular" in our lives. The older you become, the more value you place on friendships and what they represent. Sometimes I would be sitting opposite my friend in a coffee shop or a restaurant, and even though we don't have much to say to each other sometimes, yet I look at my friend and think, wow, i'm blessed to have such a great friend/friendship. I wouldn't trade this for the world !
Love you B . . .

I do feel sad though that my best friend of 15 years haven't been in the picture much lately for her own reasons. I wish that we would meet more often.
Love you 6am 6am . . .

So my advice to all of you: spend as much time as you can with your friends and cherish what you have, nurture it, protect it and enjoy it !

Hi People,


I've just arrived this morning from London and I am sooooo jet lagged even though I had a four-hours sleep !


I will be posting pics of my trips to Milan and London soon, I promise. In the meantime, check out this interesting book that my friend gave me ! The title gives you something to think about ladies !

The Holiday

Hi,

I know you're probably thinking "what a boring blog, no pics!", but I promise you they'll be more pics soon, especially of my long-awaited holiday in Milan, Italy.

Today is my last day at work, yet it is not a promising start for my holiday as I have a sore throat and a bit of cold =(

Hope i'll get better soon for my final exam on Sunday and for the vacation.

Wish me well !

The Weekend

My Horoscope says:

This isn't the best day to go solo -- you need the stimulation that only other people can bring and you ought to be able to get them to stick with your program. (well, i'm definetely going solo today no matter what my freakin' horoscope says!). I don't usually read horoscopes, but my friend does, and I just remembered her so I thought, hey, lemme check what cr#p is in there today !

I'm looking forward to the weekend which starts in around 30 minutes.

Will leave you with some pics from my last trip to Munich & Achensee.











Enjoy the weekend !

First Blog

Hi,

This is my first blog ever and I'm quite excited, yet i'm not sure if i'll find the time to blog regularly !

I'm sitting in my office, sipping some tea coz I had a heavy lunch today (a nice egyptian girl working with us brought some home-made Koshari today. Yeah I know, too much to handle during work!).

My eyes keep glancing towards the blue "ribbon" at the bottom of my laptop screen hoping to see three zeros and a four in this order 04:00 so I can rush to my car and drive the familiar streets of Dubai to my home in Sharjah. Even though I don't really have any special plans for the evening, but i'm looking forward to going home. Anything away from the office is GOOD.

Have a beautiful day to whoever is reading this right now !
