So yeah, remember how part one was about the various stories taxi drivers tell you? Strings of tales about them and their families.. I've always wondered how true these stories were..As much as I want to be an objective person, and I would like to believe their stories, but I really find it hard to! I mean, why would a person tell a perfect stranger like myself, sensitive details about their lives? Well.. Because they can! Because they know I'm a stranger, I won't judge them.. And because it might not be the truth at all and they know they'll never see me again, and if they did.. I wouldn't remember.. (except for those I've taken more than once only by coincidence).. So folks.. I started doing the same.. Telling tall tales..white fibs, whatever you want to call them.. My stories were a work of fiction generated by my imagination.. Each time my story would differ, my intentions from telling it would also differ, whether I do it to generate affection or seem like ...

This might be the first post that is somewhat..." Jordanian " lol.. Because I'm gonna be referring to taxi cabs in Jordan, as I don't take taxis around Oman.. It's not a very friendly idea for women to take cabs here.. And plus, thank god for my car! :p Maybe I should change the title.. I'm not totally an "ex-passenger" per say, I mean, I will be taking cabs if I ever go back to Amman for vacation as I don't have a car there.. Anyway, I'm sure we have all ridden taxicabs at some point in our lives, and we all know the drivers' tendencies to just chatter away with passengers (I think this happens everywhere!) and would go on and on about their lives, their golden past and the bleak future! I've heard stories from the driver being a uni graduate with a degree in Engineering, but couldn't find a suitable job, to a driver who doesn't really own the cab, it's his cousin's and he's just helping him out and ofcourse the s...

Alright.. So this is not a serious update.. I surprisingly have nothing to blog about... Either that or it's that I have ALOT to blog about, it's just that I don't know where to start from! :os Bummer.. So Snooky wants me to blog about him.. Hmm.. I must say I was shocked to learn he was from where he was !! (I'm not mentioning the country just incase he's not up for it).. But he's not Omani..that's what you should know! He is a cool young dude..No really.. Im not just saying :p There you go..I blogged about you man! lol.. Hmm.. Incase everyone is wondering, I'm still on my job hunt, but doing it rather "half heartedly" as Alex (Mimosa) said to me yesterday.. I'm not trying hard enough.. Because I don't want to.. I'm just waiting to snap out of this phase I'm in...or even just "snap"!

lol...Some title this is..I think it really briefs the past 2 months (Has it been that long?) So.. Yes, I suck, no updates, no nothing, I think Ive lost my readers.. but then again, I don't blame you! I've been extremely busy with.. all of the above mentioned in the title! First thing is first.. Most of you already know I've moved from my house.. From Al Khuwier (we've lived there for 10 years) to guess where...? YES!! Al Khuwier.. again.. lol..Well..The better part of Al Khuweir I suppose (they call it 33) next to the mosque and everything.. Do you have any idea what it's like to move house after 10 years? Do you have any idea the amount of JUNK one could find at their own home!! My GOD! I really hope none of you guys go through moving.. Its just too painful! In the process, I've found some long lost CDs that have fallen behind the dresser.. A poster that was on top of the closet (all this time!), Some old photo albums, a hair clip that's surely out...

Aaah.. My Liverpool/England supporting friend Tariq left to England a week ago or so, he's doing his Masters there.. He's also watching the world cup from there.. He sent us this email which I thought was really hilarious! TEN REASONS WHY I TA LY MIGHT WIN THE WORLD CUP .. 1) Fifa worked very hard to promote fair play and anti racism in the world cup.. as we all saw.. there were banners and slogans all over the place and in the latter rounds team captains were given little notes to read out.. but Fifa were apparently also promoting homosexuality.. and in an effort to stamp homophobia out of the beautiful game.. they decided on helping the team with the biggest number of homosexual players win the tournament.. so congratulations to Gigi, Pippo, and Gattuso.. your sexual orientation might just win your country the world cup..!! 2) As part of their preparation for the world cup tournament, the whole Italian team had been subjected to long hours of hypnotic therapy, their...

I suppose you all know by now that I got my drivers license. Innit cool? Yeah.. No more hitching rides, begging to be dropped off places, or just being stuck at home because I don’t have a car and there’s no one to drop me.. sigh.. Finally I guess.. I FINALLY AM NOT A PEDESTRIAN ANYMORE! Well.. I’ve said this before, when I got my license in Jordan, but I didn’t have my own car then.. And I still didn’t drive here, so technically I was still a pedestrian! :P Anyway, now I can finally I’m not anymore.. Sure I use my brother’s car, but he’s not complaining since I always fill it up!! :s Erm.. Yeah, well I’m always afraid I’d be short on fuel! Anywhooo... Yesterday was like “Driving day” for me! I actually drove all around Muscat! Not that I meant to... But I kind of got lost in Madinat Al Ealam, MSQ and Al Ghobra … lol! I drive to work in Al Ghobra... so yeah I took a wrong turn there and got lost… Got lost again later that afternoon looking for my friend’s place (TripleTee) in Al E3la...

Oh my friends.. It is I, the Melon.. Back once again... Well not quite..I know you’ve missed me.. :p But these 2 weeks have been SO hectic! (Ever since I’ve started working) Well... So far, my blog is becoming a bit on the “diary” side... But, boy have I got things to tell you!! lol Well... Regarding me falling down the stairs, that phase is over, thank god, I’ve recovered, A bit of muscle pain is left, but other than that… All’s good! :) My job.. AKH.. MY JOB.. fft.. You wanna hear something funny? I don’t like it .. Yeah! You heard me! I DON’T LIKE IT! Ahem... Why you ask? Well, for starters, it’s not really what I had expected! And whoever hears me saying that is like “what? You haven’t been there for long, and you’re complaining already!!” Well, yeah, I kind of know what it’s like and what it’s going to be like forever after only being here for 2 weeks now. My dad is like “Oh, all jobs are like that… all bosses and managers are like that” or “That’s what being an assistant is all i...

Y'all want an update.. ja ja? Okay.. I have JUST sent the longest email to my friends all over telling them what happened .. I haven't spoken to them in such a while.. So..instead of writing it down again here, I'll just copy/paste! Enjoy!! Warning: LONG POST! ---------------------------------------------- "Now.. A big change has occured! I smsed most of you but decided I should tell everyone in details what is up! I'm getting married! :D ..Mmm.. haha! Bah! Not really no.. *roll eyes* I have finally started working!! Yes.. me .. 'D' (the mushroom girl)with a job finally after all this time! :D You have no idea how .. comforting and releaving this is.. I stopped caring what kind of job it was, I just wanted anything! No More useless bum for meee! But in this case here's what happened... I was out with some girls, got introduced to one of them, who worked at the Ministry Of Tourism, and out of the blue she was like "Oh are you looking for a job?...

I've always been the artistic type to be honest.. I pick up after my father.. For he is a person who's intouch with his emotions and knows how to express himself through drawings and painting. I just wish I had time to practice it all... I used to have the time, and I used to have alot of paintings.. But I just gave them away! stupid me stupid me! I wish I hadn't! :( And ofcourse, not going for Graphic Designing in college, was partially the reason why I never picked up where I left.. I guess the business world took over me.. And I sort of lost all my artsy sense.. But then I realized, you don't really lose that! Once an artist always an artist! All I have to do is go back to it, step by step and I'll be back on track! So, I've decided.. I'm going to try and work on that side of me! Practice more to develope it.. I've got all the time in the world, It's not like I'm working nowadays.. even if I did, that would help me fund my equipment, from bru...

Hey all.. So today, June 1st marks the establishment of The English Sabla .. The forum I've belonged to for the past 4 years now.. Sabla has been around for 6! I've written this article as something I'd publish in one of the papers here in Muscat, but alas, I was late.. I really wanted it on Wednesday's The Week , or Times Of Oman today or something! I never heard from The editors though!! hmph! :( BUT.. I have decided to get it published it anyway! :) I will inshallah go down to one of the offices and hand it to anyone in charge! Will scan an dpost the page if that does happen!! I have all month to do so.. In the mean while.. Here it is, read and tell me what you think.. I might add a few changes when I go down to get it published! ------------------------------------------------------ Traditionally, Al Sabla is a term describing the social center of the Omani village. A place where people meet to discuss local affairs and celebrate weddings and other social events. ...

There are times when you suddenly start thinking.... Yep, you're getting old! It's something that sort of hit me today while I was out with a friend of mine and her 14 year old sister.. We were looking at some shoes, when I spotted these cool black snickers with pink scribblings on the sides, something like the Anarchy sign, and a pentagram... Okay I liked the shoes, really I did.. And as I reached for them to take a closer look, my friend's sister got hold of them first.. "OMG!! I LOVE THOSE SHOES!" ..... "Reminds me of Avril Lavign!" Yikes! Avril Lavign's style of shoes?? Hmm... I looked away thinking, wow.. a 14 year old went balistic over these shoes.. What on EARTH would I want with them! Where would I wear them anyway! College? Ah,right.. I'm done with that.. Well, work?? I'm oooldddd!! Bah! It might be silly, but that surprisingly got to me! I suddenly felt bad that I have to "look" as well as "act" my age and no...

I'm not feeling myself.. I don't like the way things are going.. and frankly my dear I dont give a damn! lol.. Well, no not quite.. I do give a damn! I just don't know what to do! Nothing it going my way! I keep blaming it on alot of things! First on the country, then car, then job, then folks.. etc etc.. I think I have ADD .. (Attention Deficit Disorder), I feel like my brain cells are dying by the second! How DO you diagnose ADD anyway? Do I like go to a clinic and ask them to give me tests? The best compliment I've had in ages was yesterday, when my friend, who visited me from Jordan, said to me: "for someone who has nothing to do & just sits around and eats..You're really slim!" .... rofl.. Yes, I took it as a compliment. Pfft.. Nevermind my mindless babbling.. I'm suffering from depression, repression, opression, supression and everything -ression! eh.. Something hurts and I don't know what it is! I feel ignored..

Now let me see, whats been going on lately... - Well, last Tuesday was my brother's graduation ceremony. 'Sigh'.. Our little shrimp is now 18 and is finishing High school.. They grow up fast, eh? Makes me feel.. old! The Ceremony took place in Crown Plaza in Qurum.. Or is it Shatii Qurum? Some kind of Qurum.. Anyway.. I think their school has always had the graduation ceremonies held there. I felt weird going.. Seeing all those teachers! My old teachers (I studied there for 7 years!), the old principal and his WHOLE family (who are friends with my family), old class mates (Some I was surprised to see there and some I knew would show up), I was excited with the ones I was surprised to see! Long TIME! Ha! ;) You know yourself! :p I also met some new people (sisters of my brother's friends who knew who I was).. It was all good.. All the boys looked really good dressed up in suits.. Fine young gentlemen they were! ---------------------------------------------------- - Y...

Wow.. English Sabla has finally made me a Moderator .. On The General Discussion section. Am I happy? Am I excited? VERY! Overwhelmed actually.. hehe.. I've been a mod for 3 days now, on the first day I actually went to bed 8.00 am! I just spent all night admiring my new "privilages" as a moderator! Sad, eh? You think that's sad? Wait till you hear this... I was actually hoping a member would screw up or report a post so I would practice my "new duties" as a mod and go on editting, deleting or even warning members to stick to the threads' topics! And I got to do all that! yeeeah! :D Now THAT'S SAD.. hehe But it doesn't really matter.. All I care about is that I'm finally a mod! :p Well, not exactly the ultimate dream, but I have bugged the admins. the past 4 years! Since the first day I've joined and the question I asked was "How can I become a moderator!?", Nabhan could vouch for that! hehe.. Anywhoo.. This is a good th...

TOOL'S ALBUM " 10,000 DAYS " was released YESTERDAY !!!! I downloaded the album but I am still really excited about purchasing it. Go get yourself a copy! Like most progressive rock and heavy metal-- hell, maybe most popular music in general-- suspension of disbelief is key with Tool. Taken at face value, with their song suites, meat puppet videos, and histrionic singer, they're pretty goofy. I'd like to think of TOOL as the Radiohead of nü-metal. Tool didn't release an album between 1996 and 2001 . They missed nü-metal's entire rise and fall, an era of whiteboy dreads, bonsai facial hair, funk bass poppin', and constipated balladry. And much like Radiohead when they dropped the Kid A/Amnesiac doubleshot, Tool released Lateralus early in this decade to radio silence and huge numbers. Five years later, they return with " 10,000 Days "! Listening to this album, you get the sinking feeling that Tool have made an art-rock, rather than art-me...

Hmm.. I don't really like comparing myself to people. But sometimes a person can't help him/herself! It is human nature to want to see how we measure up in comparison to others - especially if we think that they are better than us or have more of something that we want. Yet the truth is that it is not a good use of time to compare ourselves with others because there is no one like us and this makes us incomparable. Yes.. Each and everyone of us is unique . There is no one else like you in the entire universe. In honor of your unique self, it is good to acknowledge and embrace the special qualities that make you the person that you are . One way to do this is to NOT compare yourself with other people. Each of us has very special gifts , and we are here for very specific reasons. We each have a life purpose to fulfill and with this come the lessons that we must learn and the circumstances that we must go through in order to evolve as spiritual beings. To compare our liv...

..No not the movie.. but MINE! Yes.. I got my first paycheck today.. Okay, well, it's not like a permanent salary thing. Still, it's a paycheck! I got paid for work I've done! hehe Life is good.. And I must say.. What I got wasn't bad for only 3 days work! :D This should be a motivation.. to get a permanent job! Inshallah.. :) YESSSS! CASH CASH! $$ Ca-Ching!

Senorita suggested I post some cooking recipes .. I really liked the idea! :D But, I'm creating a new blog for it.. Recipes and will try to enforce them with pictures of the dishes I make! :) What'd you all think?

Yeah I know, I should've updated long time ago.. But I haven't been feeling well, I had an upset stomach!! And I still don't know what from! It wasn't something I ate lol.. It wasn't anything else, I told a few that I'd be seeing the doctor.. Well, I didn't, simply because two days later, the pain just went away.. I know it's not "right" to "sleep" on pain.. But I'm not really fond of clinics, doctors and most of all MEDICATION! ugh.. Anyway, I'm fine now, Hamdulilah.. And y'all have been wanting an update! Popular Demand, eh? :p Well, here you go, though not much has been going on really.. Today, I went to Mutrah Suq, with my friend Sarah. She wanted to buy some "Omani souvenirs" before going back to Egypt (she works there). It was a lovely evening. To be honest, In all my life, I think I've only been to that part of Oman a few times... It's such a shame though, I mean the whole " Corneish "(By...

Yep.. It's over now, and I never really got the chance to blog about it while it was happening, simply because I had NO TIME! :p Funny eh? Me? No time? HA! Anyway, I actually posted it about the whole event in EnglishSabla. This link will take you to it! http://www.englishsabla.com/forum/showthread.php?p=666647#post666647 Yeah, I started it, tried to update it as much possible , and ended it just now! I actually loved this event! It gave me an idea of what students and youngsters out here are actually interested in. And visitors stressed on having an organization like AMIDEAST (mentioned in post) opening up here would actually benefit Oman! Cool! Move over British Council! hehe..

fft.. They're playing on June 25th in Edmonton, CAN- Rexall Place.. and on June 26th in Calgary- Pengrowth Saddledome ... Grr.. Lucky them.. Canada I mean.. I WANT TO GO! If they ever perform in Dubai or Lebanon (Which they did once before,or was it a rumor?)..I would most definetly go! I'd be insane not to!! AAARGH! *frustrated* Why don't any of the performers come here to Muscat or to Jordan! We promise we won't bomb you! XD

If you ever were in a long-term relationship then you'd know that the dance of intimacy involves coming together and moving apart. Early in a relationship, intense periods of closeness are important in order to establish the ground of a new union. Just as a sapling needs a lot more attention than a full-grown tree, budding relationships demand time and attention if they are to fully take root. Once they become more established, the individuals in the union begin to turn their attention outward again, to the other parts of their lives that matter, such as work, family, and friendships. This is natural and healthy. But sometimes.. A person would forget to look inward every now and then.. If a long-term relationship is to last, turning towards one another recurrently, with the same curiosity, attention, and nurturance of earlier times, is essential. But..Alas..In a busy and demanding world full of obligations and opportunities, we sometimes lose track of our primary relationships, thi...

..But often forget that I do.. I hate not having a car.. I HATE not having a car probably more than anything ever! (At the moment ofcourse..if that makes any sense) I remember hating not having a car back in college, when I was waiting for the bus, in the pouring rain, I had forgotten my umbrella at home, and people were driving by in their own cars.. I remember texting my dad saying "DAD I NEED A CAR BADLY!"... And what was his reply? "HAHAHAHA".. "sigh".. I guess when you're unlucky, there's no changing that! Oh..The pic is of my mom posing in a funny way and her brand new car which she paid for all by herself and got 3 days ago! :) Cool or what? Hopefully I'll be doing the same..

Okay..This conversation I've just had with Mimosa is by far the funniest ever! I wasn't even there! hehe.. Melon ™ says: BRB.. phone m says: thought so.. bummer.. ok m says: i'll just pop off and shoot myself m says: thanks for noticing m says: i could say anything right now i suppose m says: i have flowers growing out of my ears m says: my clothes are on fire m says: i was once a woman m says: i come from another planet in a galaxy far, far away m says: i'm actually made of chocolate m says: if you cut me, you get hot mocca out of my veins m says: i have a special coating to protect me in hot weather m says: but must never be exposed to herbal tea m says: for some reason m says: it's a chemical reaction m says: i don't like cauliflower either m says: cauliflower and chocolate don't mix m says: hmm.. Melon spends a long time on the phone m says: must be someone important m says: wish she would call me now and then m says: actually, ever m says: but never m...

The lyrics below describe the state of the world we're living in.. A Perfect Circle couldn't have put it in a better way... Orignally performed by John Lennon. You can actually listen to this number on www.aperfectcircle.com , I'm not sure how I can link you directly to it, will do when I find out. Enjoy!! :) Imagine there's no heaven, It's easy if you try, No hell below us, Above us only sky, Imagine all the people living for today... Imagine there's no countries, It isn't hard to do, Nothing to kill or die for, No religion too, Imagine all the people living life in peace... You may say Im a dreamer, but Im not the only one, I hope some day you'll join us, And the world will live as one. (Imagine all the people sharing all the world) Imagine no possesions, I wonder if you can, No need for greed or hunger, A brotherhood of man, Imagine all the people Sharing all the world... You may say Im a dreamer, but Im not the only one, I hope some day you'll ...

I can never do that! Someone who knows me very well, would know what buttons to push to provoke me.. I'm easily provoked.. I easily cry - And I get all defensive and start blurting out things I shouldn't..Well you get the picture! hehe.. Hmm.. Counting to 10 before saying anything worked for me a few times before.. But most of the times, my tongue got the best of me! And since I'm known for talking at the speed of light (100 words/min).. I never give my mind the chance to think.. ATTAAAACK!!!!! There's this recent issue going on, I'm trying to gather as much information as possible about the whole thing. I even wrote down what to say! What responds to expect and my come backs! All this in hope that my point would be backed up with a logical, reasonable and "non-childish" excuses and reasons! Oh..and no crying please.. *roll eyes* Or else I could just forget about getting my message across! I think I'm prepared.. But then again, are we ever? When we ar...

Today was my second time to this place.. Last time was 3 years ago! *roll eyes*.. Okay, so the place has changed somehow.. But I surprised to see it packed!! Or was it just because today was a holiday and tomorrow is also for the most? Anyway, it was a friend's birthday.. And we were supposedly getting her a cake from there (whatever!!) - which was supposed to be a surprise.. We had something to eat, then it was time for cake (After a LONG wait!).. Tada! Waiter was on his way with the cake! Yipeeee! Oops.. what's this? Lights went out! People were all LOOKING AT US! Suddenly soft music began playing, I looked at one of the girls saying "Oh, you gotta be kidding me!!" ...She started laughing! I started laughing hysterically myself!! Music was the lame "Happy Birthday" song, waiters were all around lighting up small fire crackers and singing (which was cute)! And people.. well.. staring.. as usual.. Oh, yeah... Birthday girl was definetly surprised.. But so w...

Quoting myself from my second post : "Meet someone famous before they become famous!" I think I can cross that out now! :D Wanna know why? yes! I have a famous friend! A guy I went to school with. Hani Mitwasi actually has a video clip showing on Melody Hits TV. I could not believe my eyes! Hani has always been the school talent.. Playing his guitar away and singing at school ceremonies.. Went to business school with me, then decided it was just *not* his thing.. So he dropped out and joined the Music Academy- Jordan. Arabic music is just not my cup of tea.. The most "arabic" I've listened to was "Amr Diab".. Anyway, the point is, I watched the video and thought "Why Hani you son of a gun!".. The channel actually "adopted" him, just like they help launch all the other newbies. With a producer and "friends" in the business.. He made it. Ok..I didn't really like the song very much , lol, or the video! hehe..I'm sor...

A very strange word really.. I remember hearing it for the very first time last year, my friend was incharge of a play by this name... I understand it now.. and I can actually use it..For I'm feeling emotionally sensitive and nostalgic !hehe The last few days have been such a nightmare! I found myself reminiscing about better times from the past. I want time to be alone and work through my thoughts and memories. It might be helpful to allow my memories to surface and let myself feel the emotions that come up. Hmm.. I did cry my eyes out if you must know.. lol.. I think I can mentally relive the happier moments of my life and honor the memory of more difficult times by reflecting on the ways they have contributed to who I am today. But that's ALL I can do, surely I cannot go back and dwell in the past. This process should help me feel cleansed and free from unexpressed emotions, and only then will I be able to move forward. I'm really having trouble in making the transition...

There are times when our minds become too full. Our to-do lists, worries, plans, and dreams may be so crowded together in our heads that we don't have room to think. We may believe that we are somehow taking care of our desires and concerns by keeping them at the forefront of our minds. In maintaining our mental hold on every detail, however, we may actually delay the realization of our dreams and the resolution of our worries because we won't let them go. We try to solve and take care of everything all at once! I'm tired.. I have to learn to let go.. Letting go doesn't mean that I've given up or have been defeated. I'm just simply placing them in the hands of the universe. The universe can take care of them.. We must give ourselves permission to not concern ourselves with that problem (whatever it is concerning you) any longer and trust that the universe is taking care of it. We would be giving "our burden" to a higher power. I'm missing out ...

A Chinese model presents a creation for HOSA China Lingerie Fashion Trend Collection 2006-2007 at the 14th China International Fashion Week in Beijing April 1, 2006. I think this is REALLY cute!

This one in particular I think is the cutest!! "She" has the biggest eyes!! aaw.. Will post more photos later, when I get better shots.. In the mean time.. I'm thinking what to name them.. !! I'm also thinking that perhaps the reason they came out of hiding is it's time for them to start having solid food! Yikes! I already have 2 cats to feed! 2 + 5 = 7 cats! Good luck dad.. hehe

Aaaw... This guy is one of a kind.. There are another 3 who look alike, and the last one is completely black just like Balbaz the mom.

Our cat "Balbaz" gave birth to 5 kittens..hmm..almost a month ago. She had them somewhere in our backyard and I had to move them inside, Balbaz the mother chose the space under the staircase to hide them there ( For some reason cats always choose that place! it's not exactly accessable- for us! But then again.. Thats the point!) Today.. The kittens decided to come out of their hiding.. Exploring time!!! And me with a camera! ;) They're soooo cute!!

All sounds, from a whisper to a classical symphony, arise out of silence and disappear into silence. Silence is the void where we can hear the many sounds that we often ignore - the voice of our intuition telling us the truth, the sound of the breeze blowing, the hum of the radiator, and the noises we make just because we are alive. One way to experience silence is to wake up before the rest of the world has come alive. I've started praying again only recently.. Waking up before everyone made me experience "silence". After prayer, it's rather difficult to fall back to sleep. So I try not to move into activity, and leave off the lights, and stay in bed (more like sit in bed).. Forget about turning on the television. I'd sit still and simply listen. It's weird hearing your own heartbeat and breathing.. What's weirder is the silence surrounding me. Alot of you people should do this too! Just stay this way for as long as you can, and allow the sound of silen...

..Not quite! What's with my dad? He's obsessed! Psychic.. Word of the month! My dad has had his share of experience with the extraordinary, ever since he was a kid. Yep, his whole family actually were somewhat " connected ".. *roll eyes* But.. The one who truely takes the cake is my aunt (dad's sister).. She is, what he likes to call, " gifted ".. Now, I don't know if she really is.. She just happens to know TOO MUCH about other planes! .. She claims the "ones she knows" are harmless.. "We come in peace!" hehe.. It frustrates my dad when I make fun of the whole thing. *slap* Ahem.. yeah.. She is my dad's youngest sister, yet he thinks she is the wisest. He turns to her alot when in need of advice, I don't know whether it's because of her "gift" of claiming to know abit of the " unknown ".. Or because she's his sis and he's a single parent. Oh, I should also mention that my dad thinks it runs...

I have this list of things I want to do, be or have on paper.. Thought I'd blog it for safe keeping. I've had this forever and I keep adding to it.. Things might seem impossible to do, but then again nothing is impossible once you put your mind to it. (Ofcourse inspired by my very good friend Hiba. :) ) I want to.. Learn photography - Be more confident - Sleep peacefully - Visit Ireland - Have more free time - Bond with my cat - See System of a Down live - Watch a football match live - Eat exotic food- Write and record an album - Never stop learning - Buy a car - Get over a broken heart - Trust someone completely - Love myself as much as i love others - See the world - Make a film - Give away a bunch of clothes - Get a tatoo and piercing - Live in Italy - Improve my diet - Get a maid - Be cool - Meet Johnny Depp - Try to not take little things to the heart, " defensive ...

So.. I've always wanted to have one.. a Blog that is.. I just couldn't get myself to create it for some odd reason. I think I never really got the idea! I'd ask if it was a diary? Some would say yes, as it is common! Is it something like a journal with personal thoughts and opinions regarding whatever? Another yes..Others though use it in a very "professional" manner.. I like the idea of it being a diary though.. I haven't been writing in mine for such a long time..Probably because I live on the internet.. and my handwritting is "screwier" than ever! Haven't held a pen in ages.. Well.. Except for when writting down my shopping list! "sigh".. For now .. I'd settle for the diary/journal idea.. I will get the hang of it soon.. and only then will things be more interesting.. ;) Welcome to Lullaby .. ** Thanks for your tips CrazyRed
