13th November

13th November has always been special ,from the time I could remember!Somehow, 13 is also my lucky number besides being lucky enough to still keep in touch with a chilhoodfriend born on that date.

At work,it was a light day.So I turned in my assignment and I am still waiting for a review comment.Cant wait to get that accepted and then I can work on the new modulein hand.The new module began the same evening.I went to classes after picking up aregular(veg burger) on the way.I swore never to go back to that Malu cafeteria again,though their burgers are so yummy, I have to look out for a new,closer place.

Human Resources is the new module, the subject so dry,I hoped to get some help from the lecture.Nope, I was wrong.Her slow pace / her south african accent didn't help me keep interest!I had asked too many questions cos theory is so difficult to relate to in real life,I must have sounded like a dumber-er,in the context of "Dumb-Dumber andDumber-er".Anyways, we winded up quarter to ten.(Ooh! so English!)

I called up my close friend after I got back home.After about dialing 15 digits,the ringing sound made me glad,ensuring that that was still a telephone number, and whenshe picked up my mission for the day was ful-filled! We spoke quite a lot,about hernew lifestyle,places, people,household chores, family, friends--a long conversationand giggles in between that made us realise that though it has been a long while,thewait was worth-while!I hope she had a great day,as contrast to me,it was just the start of her day!

It's wonderful how just conversations keep me alive-their deep ,soothing effect,lasts for a while....am glad!:-)

Finance and Economics talkies

So as to summarize the happenings on these areas so far, The Chinese yuan has been revaluated ,thats up 2.1 pc against the USD .Good for the Yuan but not so good news for the middle east currencies that are pegged against the dollar!We are going to find our weekly grocery bills shoot up in sometime,it should not be a surprise considering a country like UAE where 80 pc of the goods are imported.Much the same would happen to the OMR,SAR ,QRD and BHD. So my nation and favorite market has signed the prestigious N-deal.I wonder how things will be in the future.What reactions would come across for the several tests done and so on.Also very hazy about what the rising foreign reserves are going to serve by year 2010.Ofcourse credibility and all but stocking up about $662 million,is that such a good idea moving forward?! Etisalat have signed the MoU with Sudan's Unity.The farsight of this company has been excellent so far.Spreading investments through out this region since their monopoly is...
