One of those Days: Change

9 May

I’m a person who likes routine and change from time to time, if I get a busy schedule for more than a week (unless am traveling) I get tired and want to go back to my old routine. But that’s not the routine am talking about, I’m talking about the routine of not sleeping well, work, and stress. These all are not good routine in any way, and it’s a sign that I need immediate change or probably need to travel somewhere far.

Lately it has been very boring at work, some major changes were going to happen, everyone was trying to ask around if they have any news or something to gossip about, but everything was hush-hush which made us more nervous and lost about what to expect. Untill everything exploded last week! it was a definite relief, it was good enough, at least for now. This is way I have been away, I have so much catching up to do, hopefully soon ill go back on my feet and start blogging properly like before.

one of those days: car accident

25 Apr

i woke up feeling crappy.. really exhausted and slept really badly…

and well.. started getting ready for work.. and managed to get into a car accident..

the initial accident was both of us driving into the same lane.. but it turns out that it was my fault cuz his car got hit nearer to the back because he was going faster..

my car got off balance and almost hit another car..

7amdella it didn’t…

this has not been a good week.

need a break and some space!

one of those days: les incompetents

12 Apr

Do you guys remember the Home Alone movie where Macaulay Culkin gets called Les incompetent by his sister! Classic moment that I wish to live out with certain individuals.

it is not everyday that i find that my biggest problem is the people i work with..

my boss has been amazing since she joined in july (some times after me) 7amdella 7amdella 7amdella!!! after my last psycho bitch of a (female) boss this is a breath of fresh air!

but recently we have had a new girl join.. technically she is 3 grades higher than me… unfortunately.. i have to keep redoing her work because she is not very competent.. she seems to not listen and gets everything wrong.. its really tiring to sit in a meeting and explain what actually the situation is when you ureself had nothing to do with that project..

now i know she musta been good at what she does in her previous job.. but my boss and i are struggling to comprehend how she kept up with what she had to do.. it is soooooo exhausting!!!!!!!!!!

the problem is that we are a 4 person team – my boss, myself, this other girl, the intern – who is lovely but i end up having to redo her work too!!!

oh well.. what can a person do eh?

things will get better i hope

*looks to the skies*

help.. please?

One of those Days: Distracted

2 Apr

I have been feeling like this for a while now, distracted, unfocused, bored, sick of routine and it’s getting too into me. It feels like its been awhile since a change happened in my life, but this time not any change would do, it must be a change that I want, or more like I NEED. Everyday I wake up with the same feeling, that I don’t feel like going to work, and when I do, it starts getting more boring from there, same routine, don’t feel like working even if I had stuff to do, and lately I don’t feel like playing round, I don’t wanna blog, I stopped tweeting and instagraming, and everything is going down from there.

Do I know what my problem is? yes you can say that, can I do anything about it? No.

But today I pushed myself a bit harder, I started working, am catching up with my blog and my friends, am facebooking again, and hopefully I can manage this and not fall for it again.

So what have I been missing lately?

 

One of those days: Confusing Weather

18 Mar

Just ranting about the weather..

We are all by now are kinda used to the dust storm that we get on regular basis right now and specially in the summer. The weather is changing around the world and it only makes sense as Kuwait has a lot of desert that we get these kind of storms. We are all used to it and yet we complain, that’s just human nature! Am sure that in the states or any of those cold countries they complain about the snow and the cold as much as we complain about the dust! and who knows, they might wish for having the dust instead of the snow! are you willing to exchange if you can?

Whats surprising me is that for a very long time we didn’t have winter that lasted this long! i mean it’s almost April and today the temperature was 10 in the morning! we don’t really know if we should wear summer clothes and have extra jackets on us or just wear light winter clothes and hope we don’t get hot in the afternoon!

I’m not really looking forward to summer, I think am not the summer kind of person. I mean if you are cold, you can always wear extra clothes, but if you are hot, what are you gonna do? Some people look forward to summer cuz of the beach and all the activities, well I don’t think anyone could stand the heat in Kuwait! who would go to the beach in Kuwait in summer when it’s over 50 degrees? unless you wanna commit suicide.

So be careful people of this weather change, it’s probably full of viruses and to those who suffer from breathing problems too.

Stay safe

one of those days: the devils that resign

6 Feb

why is it that as soon as people resign they become little monsters that don’t do any work and dump everything on you! it is soooo annoying! it feels like their very existence is a burden on everyone else since you’re picking up after others all the time!

we have had some many girls at work who decide to resign and then do jack shit for the rest of their time where they serve their notice..

i’m really exhausted – i don’t know why.. i am so tired… i’m not as motivated as i used to be about working out or being super duper active.. i really need to start getting better more active and having more of a joie de vivre..

i just wish i didn’t get everything dumped on me at work! oh wellll.. c’est la vie i guess! ;p

i miss working till 4pm – 6:30pm is just tooo tooo tooo long ;p

one of those days: not my PROBLEM

26 Jan

hey you guys..

do u ever have those days when no matter what any one does it becomes you problem?

i have had those days for the last two days at work!

one of the girls has resigned (who is my senior), so its me and an intern on my team currently!! everything that goes on is suddenly my fault according to my boss’ boss (my boss is away!)

so a document i wasn’t even incharge of became my problem..

an email that the girl wrote from my email became my fault! i’m just sick of it!

i’m ready to tear my hair out! i just need this weekend! so desperately!!!!!

one of those days – out of it

18 Jan

some of you may have known that I was in kuwait for some time in January..

well i got back to Dubai on monday and I am at work today.. i am so exhausted.. there are soo many places i’d rather be.. but getting into the scheme of work makes it better than sitting at home and wishing i was in kuwait..

i had a really great time but that just makes it harder to leave.. i wish i could just come back now!

so i know i went missing for a while..

but i’m back and better than ever (HAHAHAHHAHA) yes i am a nut job…

well i have missed this place and from now on moody n i are in the full swing of things :D

i heard this song and kinda fell in love with it..

what do you think:

One of Those Days: Laptopless

16 Jan

Its one of those days when I officially don’t have a laptop anymore!

You see, I have had my laptop for more than 8 years! yes you heard me, I know 8 years can be a lot for a laptop but am the kind of person who doesn’t keep any clutter, un used programs or un filed files. I do regular cleaning and keep it nice and simple. It’s true that it got a bit slower and it can get frustrating sometimes, but I like my laptop, and obviously not anymore.

A couple of days ago a windows update popped on the screen, and because I like to have everything updated I had to accept it, after the restart, a message came out saying that there was a file that is missing or got corrupted! I tried to use the safe mode, but nothing would work. I started googling it cuz I usually I fix these problems easily and move on with my life, and still nothing would work. Eventually I gave up and formated the thing, I knew ill be losing some info but I was willing to do that instead of taking it to those shops and wait for ever and they would do the exact same thing.

After it was all clean and new again, I sat down to start downloading everything again, and suddenly I hear this weird noise coming out of the charger, PERFECT! this is what is needed. I have changed my charger probably 4 times (which makes sense in 8 years :P) but that was it for me. It was a sign from god that the time has come, this laptop should NOT be fixed anymore.

And here I am, laptopless, using my moms laptop whenever I can, my iPad, and my desktop at work, which SUCKS! BIG TIME! I cant wait to have a new proper one, so do you have any recommendations? all I need is a new laptop, at least 14″ clear screen, with ofcourse all the additional stuff that comes with all the laptops these days, it can handle some heavy progs like Photoshop. Am not looking for something expensive as probably I wont be needing a lot of extras. My previous laptop was a Toshiba, so whats your recommendations? and where is it best to get it from?

One of those Days: Away for a while

23 Dec

Its one of those days when you are supposed to be traveling but you just don’t feel it yet. I had a very busy week preparing for the trip and getting everything ready, yesterday was supposed to be more of a relaxing day, until I started to feel sick, definitely not the right time as am traveling only for 10 days and there will be a wedding and a new years party on the schedule! Right now am half packed, I still need to get some stuff and am still doubting the idea of goin to the doctor, I just don’t wanna bother myself.

I wanna take this moment to thank everyone who asked about us as we have been going slow with the blog lately, thank you, we are still alive, and we will be back better than before, we just need some time i guess. For me  I don’t think I will be blogging in the next 10 days as I will be super busy, but ill be missing this place for sure.

Happy holidays everyone, merry christmas and wish you a happy new year, may it bring you everything you wished for.
