Mind Thoughts

No. I'm not dead. But I did take an extended internet break. Still kinda on break, especially from friendster and that evil nasty craptastic site called FaceBook. I rarely if ever get on there anyway, so that was no biggie not an issue, I'm not addicted to pc slowing application FARMVILLE. I do miss messenger, but I'll be back on that soon.

Why? I needed to regroup.

But now, I think it's time for an update. Let some know what's going on, how its been, etc.


Picture irrelevant to the post - Day when Batawa is still with us wandering around Dubai for good times

Last year was a kick in the NUT. Yes, considering we're down one nut, it was a kick in the one NUT we have left between the two of us.

I figured out that last year, one of us has been sick/down/ psychologically since May. No breaks. One health crazy after another. Last year, I decided I was taking charge of my mental capacities, little did I know what a nut so ride that was going to be.
Christmas was very stressful days on every Christian community. We did make it through alive and with reminders that we have lots of freakin amazing families surrounding us and supporting us. It was fun, we went out for a while and played a bunch of memories travelling around Emirates and mountain and wadi ranges of Oman. I got blessed (NO REALLY???) and found my self fell asleep on the nowhere of Wadi Khamees. Yeah, that was me hoggin up the cold morning of fresh, mind touching breeze in a strange place. It was a total blast though and I did have a lot of fun.

Something happened with the New Year though... it was like a weight was down to earth that I even felt my self float like a cloud on the distant mountain peak. 2009 was just so heavy, and I'm glad its gone.

THAT is what changed. I stopped looking at the bad. Nah, I didn't stop. But when it starts to overwhelm me, I remind myself of people that have been there supporting me, us, for the past year, all the GOOD things that did happen, and that helps me change my mindset.

I guess it's time to spill my plans for 2010...

1) 29 for 29. I intend to lose this last 29 lbs before my 29th bday.
2) Quit smoking. Listen, the last fucking thing I want to hear when I quit is "how's it goin?" or "my friend did this and it worked" OR any crap related to ME SMOKING at all. DO NOT need it, that will just drive me back to smoking. Try to remember that when I actually quit. Thoughts sometimes drives me in the warehouse to puff for one stick.
3) Get back to the peeps I love. 3 trips I hope to plan this year. (excluding month vacation to HOME!)

I'm also hoping to be a little more reliable here with posting. Not sure when I'll get that going, I need to change my site up a little bit and that requires work I don't have time for right NOW, but it's on my list. Anyone want to make me a new header??

That's about it. I know, as always I'm soooo exciting...

So until next time I get a hair up my ass to post... (soon I'm sure, I hope), have a great day. Happy New Year (KUNG HEI FAT CHOI)and lets all remember THE LOVE. Cause it's all around us.

End of month

Well, this has been a pretty good blogging week if I must say so myself! I've been reading a bunch and catching up and have posted here a whole 2 times! (including this post)

Thought I would pop in and let you know I won't be around at all tomorrow. Yeah, I'm usually pretty scarce on Friday anyway, but this coming days will be very special - I'll be drugged.

Something I haven't ever talked about here... I have severe problem and severe addiction. I've been on it for oh!, about 2 years now to control it. Well over the past few months the methods don't seem to be working as well as they have in the past so I am going to have an Intensive Experimental Procedure to help figure out what is going on and how to fix it.

This addiction has a lot to do with my daily life including all people that concerns me especially my love ones, how and what I react and show to them and how I sleep on it(or really don't these thing is very humiliating). So it's a good thing. But they do knock you out for it and you can't drive yourself home.

The addiction is extremely painful and causes nausea every day to me and to somone whom I loved so much. Some days it's really really bad, and some days it's just bad. Other days it's *$%# awful. The thought hits out of nowhere, usually in the morning, and all that happens is well.

Just another health issue to add to my growing list. This getting old stuff sucks ass.

And oh, just a little follow up to this month's event - HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my youngest brother DENVER last 16th

I haven’t fallen off the face of the earth

The past few weeks I mean months worst even year have been very hectic for me, and as a result this blog has gathered some dust. My bad. I had suddenly become preoccupied with the company responsibility as well as the church, had two choices: work on it or get a negative response from the directors and other goings-on in life. The works finally over with, and things have generally settled down, which means that I can now finally start writing blog posts again! *papaya dance* So, here we go with one of those lengthy write-ups aggregating the entirety of my life and thoughts since my last posting. Brace yourselves.

From Burj Dubai to Burj Khalifa

Burj Dubai, the tallest building in the world, has just been renamed to Burj Khalifa on its opening ceremony. Burj Dubai’s change of name is in honor of Sheik Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the president of the United Arab Emirates and ruler of Abu Dhabi which recently bailed out debt-ridden Dubai in the amount of $10 billion.

Burj Khalifa boasts the most stories and highest occupied floor of any building in the world, and ranks as the world’s tallest structure, beating out a television mast in North Dakota.

Burj Khalifa is more than 50 stories higher than Chicago’s Willis Tower, the tallest building in the U.S. formerly known as the Sears Tower.

In the opening ceremony yesterday January 4 2010, 8:00 pm +4GMT time, Burj Khalifa’s official height is announced at 828 meters.

Common Scene (Super Amateur)

Bursting multicoloured sparks exploded high in the air. Fireworks lit up the night skies. Seems all places across Dubai were fully booked, packed to the brim with residents and spectators crowding to celebrate the beginning of a new decade, and for some the end of 2009. Welcome to 2010, the beginning... It's the usual thing every Nations to welcome the new year. fountains, firecrackers, fireworks & paputok. "Paputok? what's that thing?"
Anyway, the sound effects are contributed by the members & staff of G.U.L.F. Herald namely Raymund, Rebbie, Arlene, Cecil, Ditha & ofcourse us Julie and Me..
