  • Top 5 Erroneously Qualified Adjectives

    ·

    Do you wonder which powerful adjectives lose their impact when qualified? Let’s stop being guilty and clean up our posts by killing the unnecessary intensifiers (more, most, a lot of, etc.) that sap the strengths of describing words. Try going over the list (you could even add more) and vow not to make these mistakes

  • Freshen Up, Ladies!

    ·

    Whining about headaches? Body pains? And all sorts of illnesses? You’re aging. Children hardly talk about ill-health. I hate to admit I often grumble about feeling weak. Yet, upon reading ‘Herself’ by Dr. Lowry, my outlook has changed. Any woman could be as young as she wants to be -only if she didn’t neglect to care

  • Get Lucky

    ·

    When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider: God has made the one as well as the other. We all have our fair share of luck – good or bad. Question is: are you ready to get lucky? I’m no feng shui master nor star-reader, I’m just opinionated, ergo, here’s my

  • Google’s Birthday Reminder

    ·

    It’s amusing how thoughtful google could get. Reminiscing birthdays of famous creators such as  Antoine de Saint-Exupery, (the Little Prince) is a truly sweet act. Wiki says his book is second most popular to the bible (#1), upon its release. Whoever has read the book would always think  the credits are rightfully given. The exuding

    On short notice, I was asked to arrange a meeting for 10 pax at Al Ain and prepare the accommodation and visa of a guest speaker coming from Qatar. If one is a GCC (Gulf Cooperation countries) national, she can get her visa upon arrival, but she happens to be Lebanese so she has to apply for

  • If Life is War…

    ·

    Bored of my first few days at work, I downloaded an e-book “The Art of War“. T’was surely more than an ennui-buster. Though physically, t’was a painful read (the texts could be hardly seen as they were intentionally blurred), urging readers to buy the original copy, perhaps. I was glued to the lessons on the FIVE BESETTING

  • On Sub-Moms

    ·

    Surrogate mothers, or baby makers, are of interest to me. Uncomfortable questions keep bothering me about them. I first heard of this concept through a simple Sunday school story where Abraham slept with his wife’s Egyptian maidservant, Hagar. She bore him a child called Ishmael (the so-called father of the Muslim religion). Then I read

  • Enviable Visa

    ·

    A mentor from Beirut was coming to give a crash training in Dubai and I was tasked to book her in a hotel and secure her entry to UAE. She’s a Spanish national so I knew she’d be granted visa upon arrival at Dubai Airport (free of charge). I inquired at UAE’s Spanish Embassy and they

  • Become a Character

    ·

    Pity Killua. He only follows Gon. Since Gon has a strong desire to find his father. It actually marked his adventures chronicled at Hunter X Hunter. Not only kids are lost at choosing. Not only kids are  propelled by dreams, either. One is supporting another. There’s nothing wrong with that. But I found Killua envious,
