A B C of the Ideal Man.

Happy Halloween Everyone, I'm hopefully attending a private party tonight. Woohoo!! Not really sure what I'll be going as. Lee suggested that I go as a a fortune teller and I quite like the idea. Now I need to layer correctly.___________________________

Boys will be Boys

Different wrapping:_______________________________

Yes they will. I am referring to the silly nearing- their thirties boys on my course who act like teens, cracking jokes, attempting to be funny just to disrupt the class.

One would think that once boys surpass the hormonal years, they'd grow up and act maturely. Mais non, that is no way near the truth when it comes to my classmates. Their jokes are both desperate attempts and silly. And let's not get started on the snide, racist remarks.

I find their immaturity disturbing.

But mostly, I feel so sorry for their wives.  Yep, these idiots are married.

Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

Congratz to me, My wish came true. And I can now reveal that what I longed for was a promotion.
__________________________

I choose to live a life of abstinence, not just for religious reasons but mostly because I haven't found someone with tempting enough looks, who is both clean and trustworthy.

As I walked into the local grocery, and my eyes met with those of an average looking man. I was positive he was interested, and as he followed me around, I couldn't help but think to myself: No, Not You, You couldn't be the one that's coming"

Why?

All it would have taken me was a smile and he would have approached.

But that voice in my head spoke to me: No, this doesn't feel right, not yet.

A new semi-hottie in the horizon?

I think, the only reason I thought he was HOTT was that he was the fittest male in my office. Would I still be attracted to him if nature provided me with a selection of other possibilities to mate with?

But he is very easy-going and sweet.

And I know he's not the one.

Someone else is coming [insert FFWD April 2021: You got that right child].

But this one sure does dress amazingly. He matches and layers his clothes the way I do.

The first time I even saw one of those was in the early 90's, when Papa took us to Khaled/Didi's. Of course I couldn't tell the difference until papa, bless him, explained their nature to me. Of course, being the religious man that he is, he looked down on them and insisted they might as well be stoned to death since they will definitely be doomed in hell.

I think they're just very very confused. And I still don't care about how they choose to live their lives.

They're called Lady Boys.

Conditions for the Universe

I want him to love me first and foremost.

I want him to respect me,

And I want to feel the same in return.

What is Love?

Love may be in having sexy tousled hair.

Love may be in a ruffled creamy top.

Love may be in a backless seductive dress.

What is Love? Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more....as the song goes.

"He is coming"

Deep down, I never doubted this. I always knew it was simply a matter of time.

But he is coming.

Sinners

Couture Some books tell us that we are all sinners regardless of what we do and that all women will go to hell because they incarnate temptation themselves.

I beg to differ.

Not because the books are wrong.

But because of those 'religious' people who misinterpret our Lord's words.

What is the point of covering up and praying all day if you are simply going to trash and thrash people behind their backs? Are they not sinners?

Career facelift

I always questioned how some people changed their careers, extremely. Like Jo, my ex-flatmate who went from being a successful lawyer in her late 20's to a Jazz singer. To have given up a solid career, making lots of money and enjoying success with all it's fringes for singing at random clubs in Londres is really brave. But she was happy.

Wildcat pointed out that I've just done that.

Yes I have. And I am glad I did. I was doing well enough in my previous department but with that Cow of a racist boss, things started going down the drain.

Saw her at the goodbye party yesterday and did not even acknowledge her existence. Can't wait till I strike back hard and proper.

But the best thing is that I have moved on. And I know now I can rise up the success ladder faster than when I worked for her. Can't wait till the internal congratz email goes around. That should piss her off.

What do I really really really want? To have enough cash by next month and travel to Europe for the sales season and do some serious shopping.

Right now I am loving this inspiring blog. http://bahrainidiva.blogspot.com/

Conditions for my universe

The last time I went to see my therapist, I mentioned one of my fears. To end up with an unfaithful partner.

She said: I must stop this worry in order not to attract it. I should accept unfaithfulness as a possible natural phenomenon and should never put any conditions out there for the universe.

'Therefore, universe, I shall accept my future beau with all his faults. I will not specify any trait I desire hoping that you will be kind enough to find my perfect fit. [insert FFWD: April 2010, remember Child, you promised the universe that you will accept him]

OMG.

Here's what's happened in the past 2 days only.

1. I made a decision to join the media.

2. Spoke to the head of the Strategic Planning Dept, aka Hottie (thank God I am so over him).

3. He agreed to let go of me (even though secretly I was hoping that he'd put up a fight for me).

4. I gave up the position I was offered by Hottie.

5. Leaving paperwork aside, I am officially a media Guru in the making, lol. That was a 180degree change in career.

OMG, can you believe it?

Another mini-break

I am stupefied as to why most people around me are becoming full of cynicism, pessimism and depressing thoughts even though on a personal level, I seem to be confident and positive. I believe that life will only get better day after day. I don't just believe in it but know it deep down. They say those in your surroundings reflect your inner self, so why are those buffoons thinking this way? I hope it's them and nothing to do with me.

What bothers me is that they all insist that faithful people are extinct. I refuse to even acknowledge such a phrase. Come on, statistically, what are the odds of finding a compatible faithful partner? Let's be stingy and say about 25%? That's still quite a high probability and I shall hold onto it for dear life. I believe my lobster is still out there.

Had a weekend getaway with the girls and enjoyed being in the Diplomatic Suite.  We all needed a short break and it was great. From my mini-break:

Community Work vs Managerial Work

Would make a great gift, right?

While all my ex-classmates (literally each one of them), is either making millions or spending her husband's millions, I'm consumed in climbing the career ladder slowly, being dedicated, earning a below average salary (according to current  standards in the market), and working extra hours.

As jealous as I may sometimes get, I remind myself of the 24 carat blessing's rule, and how blessed I am and how much fun I tend to have in life.

Funny, how I earned the highest grades at school and was predicted a bright future as the CEO of company X. The universe sure does work in mysterious ways.

Which gown?

Which evening gown should I go for? (excuse the cleavage)

1. White lace, with shells, sequins, open back and a huge slit from the front.
2. Nude material, topped with a tulle, heavily embroidered with white beads.

3. Maroon silk with a full back, hips and shoulders in black dantelle.

Hello, is it me you're looking for...

Had lunch with a mate at Lenotre yesterday: They serve the best plum tomato soup ever. (I even themed with the restaurant.)

It's the first day back at work after the holidays and I feel great. The weather is great, I've had a good night's sleep, my dark circles were slightly diminished, I felt very fit when I saw my flat tummy (thanks to last night's vigorous workout).

And I said to myself in a wannabe husky voice: What a wonderful world.

I wish I had someone to share this beautiful day with. Wish I had a significant other I could call first thing in the morning.

Red, Black & Blue

I've been searching for the perfect evening gown to attend a relative's wedding in 2 months' time.

Nothing seemed pretty enough and it was pretty then its price tag sky-rocketed too high. But after I watched the SATC movie I fell in love with not 1 but 3 gowns that were: red, black, and blue. If only I end up with the perfect gown. How Haute are these!!
