Happy Diwali/Happy Eid!

Wishing all had a great time for Diwali/Eid!

November has been great so far....with 5 days gone by- 4 of them being holidays, I can't ask for a better start! ;-)

We managed to go to the temple for Diwali,well going there isn't a big deal, the bigger deal is finding an allowed parking space during the Aarti time! Anyways, we made it , thanks to maybe lady luck ,we found parking after about 10 minutes of hunting!

Mehndi on the day of Eid was fun, lunching at VN's ,her little sis was too good with the designing!It was fun having a girlie chat for hours together.We dined at Mazjah-a lebanese joint at Irish Village.Very nice for a change, though very crowded, the place smelled only of sheesha and to dine in the open was enjoyable-thanks to the current pleasant weather!

I got myself a 6670,so that was the Yay! part of the holidays ! :-) I managed to get the blue color and spent a lot of time on time trying to personalize to the max! I am in love with it!!

Sam came for lunch-so that was also good fun!Am sure he had a nice time with all the crazy pics!

Mom n me had a good time lazing at home, sleeping loads and watching movies!

Holidays are over,am back to work today, am looking forward to the entire month-lots of stuff!

Uniquely Singapore -Day 9

The first destination for the day was Haw Par Villa.The garden made by Aw Boon Haw for his brother Aw Boon Par is worth a visit ,if you ask me.The garden is Haw's effort to communicate to the world about Chinese culture.Orginally, Burmese the family moved to Singapore where Haw's famous Tiger Balm made him a billionare.The loss of his sons and brother during Japan's invation is what led to the making of this fantasy land by balm billionare.An ideal location to take pictures where creatures are as big as or even bigger than humans,the Buddha statue, ten courts of hell , Jade house and the tomb-a colorful place this is. We then headed to Little India for exploring the shops out there and get the Indian feel.We visited the Perumal and Mariamman temples there.The Mariamman temple is about 150 years old but well maintained and expanded a beautiful place.

Will miss u...

My car- the cute206 : 65533 , will be missed terribly...so many joyous thoughts and experiences with it and has been one of my best friends! Together we've seen so many characters with us, explored new places, bad days on the road and even all those jolly, traffic-free drives with co-incidentally great music on the radio....! Never once gave up on me, always always loved it! Truly will miss u! :-(

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...
