@Xmas show U, not ur alter-ego Sasha Fierce

Beyonce, or Beyon4e as I like to call her, had me at hello. Actually, she had many of us at hello. But that's not the point of my post. The point is that I am going to bed now and it feels quite good to fall asleep knowing that you have people around you who see your flaws and all, and are still there to stick by your side.


With 3 days delay....

The Drink Of Gods

"People drink tea to get away from the noise of the world"
@Haagen-Dazs Cafe

Can you guess the celebrity?

Take your time and brush, then floss.

Lipstick Jungle
Wish You Well - Katie Herzig

Dirty Sexy Money
Somebody Loved - The Weepies

Do The Dance

Having an all-girls-new-years-celebration requires a lot of dancing.

Xmas Comes Early In Berlin...

...and so do Xmas presents!

1. Something to keep me warm

2. Some more GBs...well, actually this is an SD card reader. Something which my perfect IBM ThinkPad was missing. And when combined with an actual SD card (in my case a way more faster SDHC card), you get a portable memory stick!


3. A mini tripod which you can attach to the top of the bottles at a party ;-) How geekingly cool is this?!

Thanks one more time to the early Santa!

A Happy Fan

Receiving a package is always exciting. Well, maybe not as excited as it probably is for Shan'do. Still, getting this package and bringing back to life my collection habits is something worth sharing.





When I Grow Up...

...I want this bag:




















Did you hear me, Prada Boy?! ;-)

jump the shark - a term to describe the defining moment when a television show that was once great goes from being good to sucking.

P.S. LOL! I just realized the evolution hidden in the titles ;-)

Visionary

I already have mentioned Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah in an older post. This is her acceptance speech for the first ever YouTube Visionary Award.

P.S. I love you, but....

Women's 'I love you, but only as a friend' or guy's 'I love you, but I am not looking for a relationship' are words we all have said or heard once, twice, four times, or even more in our life time.
Always a nice topic for a good discussion, I thought this page is a good link to share.

Wisdom on a Monday Morning

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company, a church, a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it."

— Charles R Swindoll, writer & clergyman, 1934

Italians Do It Better

A present every Italian boy and girl should have for Xmas:

By modifying the tip into what they call a 3-way “beetle tip” the pen allows you to make 3 distinctive marks just by tilting your hand. So simple yet so genius.

Frequent Flier

I really hate the airport safety regulations. That's terror. Not someone having Middle-East roots.
A small box with two very "chic" plastic bags: 1 euro
The surprise of having in addition two menthol sweets and a refreshing napkin: Priceless
For everything else, there is DBank.


Adopt Us

It was not a great idea to post this photo right after the previous fab post but deep down in our magnificent and gorgeous persona we are still human beings.
