Remember remember the fifth of November!

Where I'll celebrate my b'day in a seminar room on Davies Street

Oh Joy oh joy!

I also wish to highlight that I was in fact born on this same day (i.e Wednesday) the 5th of November, 1980.

I assumed that I'll be blogging more frequently but was proved WRONG (yet again!).  Well I have to share with you the reasons:

1- the transition from masters to phd didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped.. but luckily I'm getting the hang of it.

2- too many meetings - even more difficult since they are often in different cities.

3- the weather is getting to me (it practically snowed 2 days ago!)

London has first October snow in over 70 years

4- back injury

other reasons aren't as important since I tend to find the lamest excuse to procrastinate..

Anyhow.. I need to get back to my work!

It's almost over

Very stressful week but it will all be over tomorrow..

Then off to a new adventure!

عيدكم مبارك Happy Eid

Annoying teenage couples fighting & Sainsbury's Gluten Free Products

That's one thing I absolutely cannot tolerate. Loud (wasted) teenage couples. I got out of the gallery at around 9:30 PM. I was tired and my back hurt and the last thing I needed to hear was some bimbo yelling at her boyfriend with her squeaky voice. I can spot trouble from a far.. and I know that for some odd reason, the couple will find a way to get me involved in this - and I could have easily changed my route (this was going through my head as I was approaching them), and they did (of course) and asked me something like "Did you hear?" or I don't even know... I could have told her to buzz off but I was too tired to speak.. so I just put my headphones on.. and naturally she took offense and started yelling at me... someone throw her a feminax please.

-I made it to Sainsbury's in time. I have to admit that I was anything but glamorous with my frizzed up hair, paint stained hoodie and "slate gray" nails.. I noticed the security guard watching me ever since I picked up a bag of tangerines. I headed towards the free-from-X isle and took the brownies I was looking for and stook in the queue.

Bought the damn thing and headed to the cabs because it was too late to walk back home and the route to the house is a bit deserted this time of year.


Finally made it home... my back is still aching... will see an osteopath first thing tomorrow morning.
