My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • The academic year is just about complete. There are just a few odds and ends left, but overall everything has gone pretty smoothly. I am soon ready for it to be finished. I did not quite meet my dissertation goals, though which is a bit disappointing, but my own fault. However, I will not despair as I am still determined and motivated to get it all done by the end of August deadline.…

  • Still alive here. Just focusing on a few things before the summer holidays hit. Will be back on here soon! 😀 -T

  • It’s been a bit crazy around here these days and yesterday I received an amazing gift of a full day off. Although I could have used it to do some dissertation work or catch up on my blogs, I didn’t. Instead, I went to the beach with P. Then, we got half-priced massages, had a relaxing lunch and did a little bit of shopping. Not bad at all! It was a much-needed break…

  • I’m tired…. 😐

  •   It’s hard to believe that 20 years ago today an amazing man left the world behind whilst doing a good deed for the community and environment. I can remember the day like it was yesterday….

  • Since arriving in Abu Dhabi, my awareness of jet skis has increased due to their prevalence in the late afternoons just about the time that I used to enjoy laying on the beach after a swim in the sea. In general, it was just an annoying activity that people did here with very little interest to me. However, in Bali, we tried jet skiing with a guide and I found that I enjoyed…

  • A few months ago, our ZATC (Zayed And The City) group were talking about this group coming to Abu Dhabi. At the time, I didn’t recognize the name, but after seeing a few YouTube videos, I become a bigger and bigger fan. Shortly thereafter, I bought the album and started to get into the lyrics for their social justice and awareness messages. So, I started to get into the idea of attending their…

  • I had planned to write to catch a bit on what’s going on, but think it will have to wait until tomorrow. I am too tired for it now… 🙁 -T 😀

  • I’m still alive and kicking. Just been a bit busy and distracted. Will be back on schedule one of these days! 😀 -T

  • I believe I might be entering a funk. There’s no reason for it actually, but I have somehow lost some of my initial motivation and excitement since holiday. Not sure what to write regarding this, but thought I’d release it out there and see if that helps to let it go! 😉 -T
