Vibram FiveFingers
Just before the summer holidays one of my colleagues was wearing these amazing shoes and I asked about it. It was also just around the time that I was reading _Born to Run_ to motivate myself to really get into running. Since I love toe socks (pictured in the _Born to Run_ post), I was…

Randomness…
I have a few thoughts mulling around, but no time at the moment to get to writing on it… So, instead, here are some photos from life here in the crazy Dhabs! [shashin type=”photo” id=”6243,6242,6241″ size=”small” columns=”max” order=”user” position=”center”]

Ups and Downs Update
I thought it might be good to start off with a post on my “ups and downs” as it has been a while since I wrote anything about it. By the way, this is what I call my ‘bipolar’ tendencies. My therapist and I have agreed that I definitely have a pattern and whether or…

A new month, a new beginning for Fall 2012
To start off fresh, I decided that the site needed a bit lightening up as the black was starting to feel a bit too dark. While I like the artsy look it gives my photos, I felt a little change wouldn’t hurt anybody. 😀 It’s been a busy time, but things are starting to fall…
