I succumbed

29 August 2008 9:01 pm

Yep!

As you can see on the side bar I have a Facebook account :?

I can’t say that I like it or hate it for that matter; extremely afraid for my privacy.

My boss at work is keeping an eye on me, and I think he is not very happy seeing me practically all of my time on that site — Big no no!

On the other hand I’ve seen people and Friend I lost touch since a very long time — Big thumbs up!

I’ll give it a go for a bit then decide if I’ll keep it or not :)

Undecided

What should I do?

Apart all the work accumulating in my inbox and the numerous ideas that I have in my head but no time to do any of them.

I started to take notice of this facebook thingy, I mean I heard of it in the past but always refused to try it. Just the though of registering to see what it is gives me goose bumps.

My wife registered but I don’t know how it go, plus many friends of mine that I didn’t see or hear in +10 years are sending me e-mails and invitations to the site.

I’m not planing to minimize the importance or the power of the site/tool, I just simply don’t have any clue or confidence in it.

I feel torn between being left out and getting back in touch :-?

Can anyone help?

Back back back back….

We’re back,

Back in Europe

Back in France

Back at home :)

Back at the office :(

Sorry for the lack of posts, I’ve noticed that the sms’s that I sent from Tunis to Twitter never arrived :( bummer!

I’ve managed to upload some pictures… The delay was caused by the stupid Windows Vista installed at home :x , I’ll try to upload some more soon (when possibile ;) )

Cheers.

P.s. The missus and I are fine and happy :) all is well al7amdulillah :D

Wedding preparations

Bridge the gap

I’ve always been a lousy person when it comes to keeping contacts with friends and relatives, in fact this blog was a way to bridge that gap.

Unfortunately it failed.

I always get my self entangled with the things that I have between my hands, I can’t seem to find a balance between the things I do;

  • If I like to eat something I’ll eat it till I get nausea.
  • At work I forget everything not related to the job I’m doing.
  • ..etc..

My manager raised the point more than once, I noticed it but always said to myself “I’ll cross the bridge when I get to it” (ironic isn’t it :? )

Bridge the gap failed

Don’t worry I’m not planing to stop blogging (the thought passed my mind a few times) this post is more of a complaint to myself (who knows I might learn my lesson).

The title of the post is in regards of the wedding preparations, I’ll be sending the invitations soon, so I’m starting to gather all the names and e-mails. I’m currently stuck with my friends in KSA, I can’t seem to get in touch with them by phone or e-mails.

I really hope to get a lead soon insha’ Allah :)

P.s. On the side bar you’ll find a new widget titled “Twitter Updates” below the weather and counter. I really hope to be more consistent with the updates ;)

The direct link to my page in twitter is here, I still need to discover it’s possibilities and potentials :D

Chasing dreams

Chasing dreams

Sorry for the lack of posts, I’ve been extremely busy lately.

As you all know I got married and my wife & I will have the wedding party (reception) in a few months, then we’ll move back together to Montpellier (insha’ Allah!!)

  • House hunting. (no luck with this)
  • Various preparations to do in Tunis. (she’s handling it ;))
  • Wedding invitations. (work in progress on both sides)
  • Wedding clothes. (Thank GOD that I finished 1 thing at least)
  • Buying furniture. (planned for the coming weeks)
  • Rearranging the apartment and cleaning. (planned for the coming weeks)
  • Attend my friends and colleagues wedding. (DONE!)
  • TAXES!! (I’ll never be done with this :’( )

I keep dreaming that everything is OK and that all the points are done, unfortunately as the cartoon states I need to wakeup and start moving  to make my dreams a reality :)

P.s. To all the people who tried to contact me, I’m really sorry for the lack of replies, I’ll get in touch with you ASAP! :)

Itai!!

Broken muscles

Yesterday was the first of May (also known as May day) and my self and a couple of friends decided to go to the beach to have a nice game of volleyball with other colleagues :)

We had fun, we started from 2 till 6pm, the weather was nice sunny cold air (click on the puzzle for some pictures). As a precautionary measure I used sun block lotion just in case

I’m aching from head to toe (literally) I should start sports again know that the weather is getting better and since I don’t smoke anymore :)

Yesterday was the last day for Helene.

I didn’t have the chance to know her outside of the office environment, but what she has shown and did in the office tells me that is a very good & honest person.

I hope and wish her the very best, and hope to cross paths again.

ADIOS HELENE; you have made an enormous impact and left a void in the office, I wish you the very best :)

P.s. Good luck Dimitri ;)

Congratulations!!! :D
