Happenings

By reading people's and friends blogs, I have just realised how much I miss blogging and writing about what I feel. This weekend I am taking Jenny to Dar es Salaam and introduce her to her special friend whom she met online and they have been friends for quiet sometime, and this is a litmus test for me to see how I react to this guy being friends with my lil kid sister, Apart from that its a small getaway for me before the month of celebrations starts all over again.... so many things to in so less a time.... there are a lot of things that I would like to achieve in life but I guess we all are not so successful as we want to be and though we aspire to be something and do something in life, there are always drawbacks which make not be able to go forward in life

Lately I have been so busy and am working hard and keeping my mind off on the one thing that I really like and want. I guess I don't have much time for that these days that is loving and wanting a companion, which is not on my top of the 'want' list at the moment......

Listening to Private dancer/ Tina Turner and wondering what we all do... do we all want money or do we strive for that perfect love ... hard to understand and know, what I exactly want at this point in my life. I gather my priorities are getting Jenny educated and settled in life.

Man I have been so lazy and out of touch lately... I hope to update my blog soon... Hugs folks

Crushes!!!

Honestly can I say something that will offend you guys...in a way that will make you laugh also...
Why do I have to have a CRUSH on everyday people, and it happens all the time, no matter where I go or where I am, if I look at any given direction and if I find that guy handsome, I already have a crush on him.
I still don't understand why do I need to have this fixation, and at times it also drives me crazy.
Has anybody gone through a similar thing?
Let me know!!!

Saying Bon Voyage!

Like many friendships, relationships, and such at times have to end, or goodbyes are said or there is a parting of some sorts, I don't mean in ending totally but by separating or by leaving or moving to different places and such.
My good friend Natasha and her fiancé Paul who is a musician, are going away, meaning moving to to Australia, where Natasha resides and is living. She was here for her research and now she and her partner are going away for a new life, but that does not mean I will not hear from them or be in touch, It's just that at times we say good bye and we don't really mean it cos we actually don't want them to go.
Goodbyes and separation of sorts are hard for me and I am one person who, when likes a person, finds it hard to emotionally detach when they leave, and at times I will be sad for a few days thinking I wish I had spent more time with her, knowing her better but then I still say, what we had was wonderful and I really care for her and wish her and Paul the best in life. To my wonderful friends.... Paul and Natasha

Procrastinating

I know I have been procrastinating and thats no good. I have been having tooth problems as mentioned earlier and I finally had to go to Dar es Salaam to have my tooth fixed after an infection that would not go away much. Anyway I am still on that process of fixing it [my tooth], and I hope to have a sturdy set of whats left of my teeth.
I also have been busy with making cookies for the cafe and am slowly getting the knack of it.... I hope that manage to sell well as they did a few weeks ago. Have been a semi vegetarian for the last few months and I feel the weight falling off slowly, and I don't want it to be fast as all my skin will be loose and saggy.....!!!
I pretty much gather that I am on the right goal of getting to my life sorted out and much more then just having a pretty boyfriend or man around.
Hope to share more pictures with you on flickr...

been lazy.....

Well, I have been lazy and apart from that, Mum and my sister have gone to Dar for the big celebrations. His Highness The Agakhan arrived in Dar es Salaam on the 16th of August and there has been around 17000 approx, Ismailis in the city all of them for the gathering at the Diamond Jubilee hall.
I know I didn't go and I have my reasons. My mum was disappointed and well can't say much.
Apart from all this one of my friend Liam, was on holiday from UK and it was good to see him and reminisce good olden days.
My guests that were here on the 9th till the 13th have been in Dar and have not heard from them... C'est la vie.... LOL
I hope to post photos of the happenings in Dar that is when my sister gets them back to me.
