A Nation Turns 50

Posted: August 31, 2007 in Our World

Once a sleepy backwater town, it has now turned into a modern city with high-rise buildings nearly touching the sky. Kuala Lumpur, KL in short, the nation’s capital hosts the 50th Merdeka (FREEDOM) celebration. A proud milestone to have reached for this former mining town. The Merdeka Square, situated in the heart of the city [...]

Blogging from Facebook

Posted: August 29, 2007 in mi vida loca

No sign of activity from me for quite a while now at wordpress as I was busy else where, that place is no other than facebook. I stumbled upon it one day and was entranced by its features and mazes of networks. Arms and feet were grasped tightly by vines that it was difficult for [...]

Life

Humans are ‘funny’ creatures. I bet you would agree to that notion. God has created this able body to respond, react and to function at its fullest. Somehow, we take for granted of what was given to us. This gift of God. I, for one, would not deny that I am also guilty of being [...]

Memories … for Romana

Posted: August 9, 2007 in Libya, memory lane, ocs

What’s left with me are only memories, the objects can no longer be seen or found. Most have disappeared with time and travels. What’s left are only the vivid scenes in my mind and heart.

Going through the most excruciating weeks of my life nearly killed me! The burden of work and responsibilities put me in a very foul mood. I was looking forward to the weekends, a weekend of therapy and pampering. Not only to the mind but body and soul. To re- energize this creation of God before [...]

Princess Shahrazad

Posted: August 4, 2007 in culture, mi vida loca

  I had a great conversation last night with a beautiful Persian lady who calls herself Princess Shahrazad. I hope the feeling’s mutual. A unique and intriguing lady who has lots to say about the world, she seems older than her age dispensing wisdom on a variety of subject to the rest of human kind. Although it was our first conversation,   we felt comfortable sharing tid bits with each other. With the help of advance technology, we are able to bridge the gap between us. Unfortunately, some gaps could not be filled due to the slow internet connection.  Hence, the problem begins and I had to log off. So Princess Shahrazad, sorry for the abrupt departure. You know how it is in [...]
