Since Thursday, I haven't been well. Caught the fever and the flu..and over the weekend, I spent my time in bed most of the time watching telly. I took medicines to ease the pain yet I'm not really sure if its helping at all. Drinking heaps of water as well as my regular vitamins.
Must have been the change of weather. Well, winter is already over here in dxb and so we welcome the scorching summer now. And this must be the reason why I'm feeling under the weather.
I should have been to work today but chose not to. Don't really wanna push it. Rather have myself all recuperated before dealing with all the stress again.
Might face the manic monday tomorrow...

C14
Among the four of us, 2 knows how to drive, 1 attempted to learn to get a license and 1 is deciding on whether to learn to drive to get a license yet no one has a car! If you ask us why, we all got different reasons of course...Somehow we got used to with taking public transportation in dxb i.e. taxis, abras and the most important of all, the bus! Few more years and will be able to get to ride the "metro" then hopefully, will get back to the saying, "everything in dxb takes 20 mins tops" ... I'm crossing my fingers for it!
For the past few weeks though, I'm a regular C14 passenger. From Karama to Deira, it only takes you about half an hour to travel compare to from before when take bus # 3 and you'll get home in 2 hours as it loads and unloads passengers at every bus stop! You might even get a migraine at the amount of travel time you have!
But very thankful to RTA (Road Transport Authority) as they have despatched these new buses and routes so most passengers don't have to worry getting to their destinations on time. And with the volume of this buses, there's always a seat or two available for your worry-free trip.
And what's even better, you only have to pay 2 dirhams for a fare! Ain't that practical for us?
Will wait for the "metro" soon... let's see how that goes...

got game?
Today, I have witnessed, not gruesome nor bloody, bout of two men involved in one particular business. I have seen them as friends start it all together, agreed on terms through verbal and paper but as what we all know, when it comes to business, money is always the biggest issue!
It has become apparent the saying, "when money talks, everybody listens". It's sad when two friends fall apart when it comes to money but at the end of the day, we should all learn to study the ethics of business- who makes the decision? the share of the profit? which aspect of the business is gaining and losing at the same time? There are lots of things to consider and for partners like them, I guess they just both need to compromise. Not like kids arguing every single thing and no one even seem to want to listen to each other.
It's a big world out there and everybody seems to be in the game... but if you think that even your friend or your partner is a competition then you got a problem. After all, we're all players in the game. Its best to concentrate on your tactics to make the goal rather than blaming a team mate for missing to hit one.
Hate the game, not the players...
