Joke of this Morning

Sleepless

it's 4.24 a.m and I am still up.
Sometimes, I just don't get tired 'on time'...Especially when talking with family with skype. Man, this tool is so helpful!! :).
It's already December 27...**). Tomorrow I officially should turn 'wiser'...So, tomorrow I ought to get tired "on time", to go to bed on time...Today I still feel young to be behaving as "adults" do.

I like Colors ...




Well, browsing my blog, I couldn't help but notice how "colourful" it is. I certainly must like colors.

I've found this funny note online about colors. Please ENJOY !!

A Gift for Oneself

Does it happen that you treat Yourself?
I mean, do you usually/sometimes buy presents to Yourself?


I was not used to buy myself any gifts.
Yet, being alone in a foreign country had born such "behaviour". ?_?
So, I try from time to time to reward 'Myself' in order to "cheer it up ". -^^-.
How weird is that?
Or
Should I ask, how common is it?

Wise-Quote QUIZ Result of my sister :)



Your wise quote is: "Love is life.
And if you miss love, you miss life" by
Leo Buscaglia.
Yes, love is indeed what you desire in your
life. If you have it or not is another matter,
but it is in your eyes the most important
feeling. You tend to be a romantic dreamer and
want you and your love to have that kind of
perfect love that you hear about in fairytales.
However that can be hard to find, but it
doesn't mean you are going to stop looking.

13665 other people got this result!

A Best Man's Friend...

Is it still the BOOK? Or is it in today's High-Tech-imprinted Life, the NOTEBOOK ( the laptop ) ??




Anyway, while wondering, I got to put online this picture that I took this summer in a kind of matsuri ( festival) in my town. It prompted my former question.




















How brave is this boy. I hope someone could tell me what this statuette is called.

Like It Or Not !

" (...)
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I’m never gonna stop, no no
(...) "

Excerpt from Madonna's Confessions on a Dance Floor.
Track 12 is my favourite.

A silly question

How do I add favourite blogs or simply get to have a list with friends blogs on the side like what I see in people's blogs?


>_< I feel embarrassed for asking such a question.
If someone passing by my blog PLEASE HELP if you know of course. :).

Arigato ( Thanks) .

Procrastinating

I was all day, and actually still am, in front of the PC and all I could come out with are these few lines:

I have to concentrate.

Breath,

Breath

Breath

Breath

Relaxxxx


Though I'm in a convalescence period, I feel stressed out and that I need to do something, to keep doing something and seriously to get me on the track with my PhD thesis.
I was wandering on some other PhD student blogs and I felt a relief. A BIG RELIEF. Because as I read through about the problems of others I felt "not alone", not "the only one" with many troubles to deal with, as far as research concerns.
You don't know how much doing a PhD is a painful task. Painful mentally and physically. Let alone when one does it in a foreign country. In those times of despair, you terribly miss "mom", "mom's care", "mom's love" etc.
I guess reading about the experiences of others helps calm down oneself. Because I can feel that I am not the only victim of stress, that being in turmoil is part of the PhD.

So, back on the tracks. Now I am writing, you see. I am good at writing anything except what I am technically supposed to be writing. This is Procrastination. Apart from stress I might confidently say that I suffer from procrastinating most of the time. See, there is where my time is going and I keep asking myself where the heck is my time?? I got no time? I'm lost for time???
Now, I am not lost for words but if I had to get back to that sheet of paper on which I've written the four former lines, I would have been lost for words >_<.

Well, now I think I should take a break.
Ironically after being sick with an acute bronchitis that caused me to have an acute proctitis (dude !! what’s with all these “itis” and me), now am having a stomach ache and I am afraid it's gonna feel bad for a couple of days. Then next Wednesday comes my birthday. I hope I won't have to spend it alone. All my good friend are gone by now in this Cowtown where I live. I love our Cowtown though :). It is cozy and "human friendly" (something sometimes rare in Nihon). Two years ago I hated my Cowtown. Time really heals. Anything, I guess! Another word for it in Arabic is "assabr" which means patience...

Well I will be right back.
I need to eat me this yogurt because I have some medicine to take.

Catch you later.

whoo I'm loving this blog thing ^^/

Quotes that fit? Gotta try!

I took the quiz from ahmad's blog. :) I liked it too. Here are my results:


Rise
Your wise quote is: "Our greatest glory is not
in never falling, but in rising everytime we
fall" by Confucius.
Yes indeed, you see true strenght can only be
seen when a person has "fallen". Only
then one can tell how they will handle it. Just
don't make others fall so you can know who they
really are. You on the other hand may be a very
quick recoverer and don't let people bring you
down. You are your own, and you're find with
that. Emotional issues is something you handle
rather nicely.

Well I might say that I fit in the quote rather than the quote fits me.
My wise quote is actually: to never give up!

Long Time No See ...

Hello everyone.
I was absent for a while.
I was home. It is so nice to be home. One forgets about the net and all the e-world.
Back to virtuality, I was sick for the last two weeks. First I had to deal with a bad cold and appearently one of the medication was not suitable and made me have a proctitis. I've never heard of it before.
"Proctitis is inflammation of the lining of the rectum, called the rectal mucosa. Proctitis can be short term (acute) or long term (chronic). Proctitis has many causes. It may be a side effect of medical treatments like antibiotics" ( in my case). Well, it is very unconfortable. You feel a terrible pain and you have to deal with it till time heals, of course with medication to reduce the inflammation. I hope that it is short term, as far as I am concerned. So far, the pain was really acute. What a nightmare >_<.

Well, take care everyone. I should be carefull too. Health is the most precious thing one has.

So, now, I gotta catch up with many things.
What else, euh, am getting old in eleven days. Mmm, usually I'd say, I am getting wiser. that sounds nicer. hehe. Kidding. Actually, I love evey age. Because each age is unique and we got to live it once and only. So every age, I guess, is enjoyable :).
Yop, always gotta look at the bright side of the moon ^^/

Tschuss.

PS: By the way, this picture (not very clear, sorry), was taking from the sky (precisely, in the clouds) , somewhere over the medeterranean sea.
