Tomorrow brings endless opportunities

Every little girl dreams of getting married one day, wear the pretty dress, be loved by the handsome guy and be happy ever after. I have been to several weddings in my life. There were the banquets, the children running around, the adults exchange what is happening in their life, and of course, the happy couple. I went to my friend's wedding tonight and had just got back from the reception. Let me shed some light to my attendance to the reception of a Muslim wedding.
Put some powder on my face and tried to put lipstick on my lips. The lipstick applicator broke inside the lipstick. I looked into the mirror and my face looked ridiculous, so I decided not to wear any make up. My face without any make up actually looked better than with make up. I have prepared beforehand the wedding present and wedding card. Grabbing these things, I was confident that I will be able to find the place after checking the map about the location of the wedding.
I must admit that it is my fault that I didn't go to the location when there was still light so when I drove up to the street, I had no idea where the hall was. I had to drive around the whole block again and got out of the car and walked around to find where the hall was. It was pretty funny.
Getting there was the most difficult part, and the rest was a breeze. I sat beside my university classmates and listened to elders speaking about what a marriage should be like, what a marriage is about. Cool. They keep everything short and sweet.
The food was simple and delicious. The candy was mysterious and sweet, but I tried them without hesitation.
I went to an Indian wedding last year, it's very different to this one. They are good examples and I hope when I find the right guy, the right dress, and the right time, I will get married with as much flair as my friends. Good luck, my friend. I know that you are so happy, and I am happy for you.

Another storm is coming

It is amazing how you discover things that you wouldn't notice normally when you are busy studying, working, or doing something significant. You wouldn't notice that a courier car is parked in front of your house if you are busy studying. You wouldn't notice that the sky is filled with grey cloud and it is pouring down. You will probabaly stare at the television and expect that your country will win a medal in the Commonwealth Games and not notice that the sky has opened. It rained real hard today, the precipitation on the window is extremely beautiful. I guess I will never stop and notice that if I am busy working, busy thinking about something else.
Ride the bike today, and continue doing crunches. Feel like that I have accomplished something by sending out another CV.
It is still very warm, just hope that winter will come sooner. Everything will be clearer and comfortable by then.

Fish in the sea

I have put up a new name for my blog since I have written up my thesis even though I am still technically a Master student right now. I have been trying to find a job ever since I have sent away three copies of the thesis. There is a free copy of newspaper in my mailbox this morning. This is a good sign.
Sent away two CVs and will wait for the answer for them (found these jobs on the helpful site). Realistically, I believe that I may have to send 10 or more CVs. Good luck to all my friends, who are finding jobs or studying, and to myself. This is the time to give them all your best and hope they like what they see. Talent is no longer hidden, it is best shown and leave under the sun. I am sure tomorrow I will find more opportunities.
We are doing well in the Commonwealth Games. Caught the 200m butterfly final where Moss Burmester got gold. It was so thrilling! Good on him. Still keeping a close eye on the results everyday.
