I should have posted a few days ago... but... for some reason... whenever I try typing out what I wanted to tell you guys -- IM STUCK!

As promised (from previous blog), I was able to take some pictures...

This is the Jumeirah Open Beach.

A lot of people actually come here... the Brits to sunbathe, the Indians and Pakistanis to peek at the Brits body (because you see some of these girls go topless on the beach to even out their tans) and the Arabs to sometimes peek too but most of the time they come here to enjoy the water sport activities like parasailing, jet skiing, kite surfing and more.. Filipinos, on the other hand, have picnics on the beachside (where there are tables because I think like about 10-20 mtrs from the beach, you can't bring food), sit on the benches provided to just breathe the fresh air and for some (like me and the rest of the gang) we go for a walk.

On the day I took a picture of the beach, it was calm... very inviting. Good thing I was in jeans or else, I might've jump in.

I took this picture while Rob and I were in a cab. I actually forgot what this building is... Sorry... I posted it because I like the shot. If you also noticed that even if we were already in the city, there are still some areas that look deserted (with lots and lots of sand )

 This is the 'new' Burjuman Centre

This is where Rob and I usually spend our Fridays... Its actually the new Burjuman because they've expanded and when I say expanded it's really  e -----x-----p-----a-----n-----d-----e-----d. I can't believe it that there are actually HUGE malls in this country... I mean they thought of having a dragon mall (it's actually built now and according to Rob it sure looks like a dragon even the way it was constructed -- like a dragon's body!)

 This is Deira City Centre

This is where most of the people hang out... and these Indians in the picture were the highlight that Friday... they were playing their instruments to the tune of 'Viva Forever' of the Spice Girls . They were great!

More to write tomorrow because my service is here!!!

First of all, I would like to thank those who took time to check and see if Rob and I look good together (thanks for the praises, 'brave comments' and the 'fat comments' - ok lng andrea but it did bother me for a couple of days )

As of tomorrow, we will be off for three wonderful days!!! It's Eid here... According to my friend, The Shiekha, the Arab or Muslim people have this celebration to officially end the Ramadan... Like this is the final celebration because before we also had, I think, two days off also because of Eid Al Adha.

No actual plans yet for me and Rob... because he might be coming to work on those three days  so it could mean two things: 1) I might tag along with Rob and go to their shop or 2) I do the laundry which I have miraculously sized down to a hill - a miniature one...

I can do a lot of things too... maybe read a book.... or maybe try to sketch something or take some photographs (Jumeirah Beach is a very good subject along with the people sunbathing there!--- Wait a minute... that could be a good thing... try to reserve some shots on that one)

Ok.. I really have to go now because my service is waiting for me.

Ciao!!! Eid Mubarak to you all!!!!

Since it's a new year.. I (again) decided to change my template. As I browse on the available ones, I chose this. An irony of my blog title. The background pic looks serene and calm (so is my photo pic --hahaha)

For the new year, I also want to share a photo of me and Rob (finally). I decided since I sometimes pour my heart out over our nonsense fights and our sweet ek-ek. Might as well, have a vision of what we are like...

So, you judge if we do look good together and if we do make a comment or if we don't send it too... I don't mind.

I love him that's all

Happy New Year and Happy Three Kings to you !!!
