House finch and sea gulls
Will our paths cross?
“Hope we get a chance to cross paths again some day too.”.. That’s how the email ended, and that’s how I started wondering again about the strangers I meet and the paths I walk by everyday..
To where the roads will lead me, whom will I meet again, and whom not?.. and who will remember me when I am gone?..
Nostalgic?.. True, a little bit..
Contagion of apology continues: Interior Minister Eli Yishai apologizes for the distress he caused
In other words, we should have waited two weeks before telling the White House to buzz off.

Sono stati davvero fortunati che non abbia piovuto a Roma, l'8 marzo scorso.
Random Thoughts – Part 1
This is an attempt to overcome the current writing block I’m suffering.
It’s becoming an obsession, or maybe it’s just the outcome of an intense dose of insecurity lately (which is pathetic I know), but one tend to have some strange cravings; silence, on top of which, and not just your late at night silence, or early in the morning calm, but something .. idyllic .. paradise like, where you can enjoy the presence of certain things .. and .. people .. their air .. and .. aura .. maybe. I don’t know. read more »

667) The Confusing Man .. RIP !
This man Sheikh Mohamed Tantawy - Allah yer7amo- was really confusing. Sometimes I felt that he represents the moderate view of Islam in a simple way, and some other times I felt that he is just one of the ministers or political figures, and just serving a certain agenda.A request to the void

A Letter to Self
Thank you for writing this for me.
Dear Self,
The universe seems to have been conspiring against me...or maybe it's the voices in my head that wish for me to believe so- you see, I never blame myself, ever! Blame is something I can never accept because I believe I am never wrong.
I believe I exert more effort than required and that this should be appreciated. I wish I had more time on my hands...with a "job", two classes a week, friends to meet, and family- I never seem to have time for anything, let alone myself.
More split ends, eeky nails. Dark circles round my eyes...
The moral of the story is …
In a land far far away in a time long long ago, there was a country. That country was beautiful and rich. The soils were rich, anything sown in the land would grow and be fruitful. They had one character flaw; someone should always be blamed. So instead of planting their land the farmers would squabble all day long on whose fault it was that the neighbor’s cows wandered into their fields. Was it the farm boy’s fault or was it the farmer’s wife’s fault. They would go on for days on end, for they were very skilled in arguing, they had had years of practice. So the land was not farmed and the people did not have any food to eat. They started to blame the king because of their character flaw. read more »

What do you know..
This was my post today, last year. I have mixed feelings about this, but mostly, I am not happy. I could have written this today, When on earth will I ever do something about it? Bass for the record, I did take a one month off. read more »
A trip into designing the perfect ipod case
I am a procrastinating perfectionist. That is a weird thing to say right?
Anyways, Chikapappi (check out her blog, she’s very interesting but not blogging as regularly as she used to or as I would like her to) said she wanted an ipod case. To be honest so did I. I throw my ipod in my bag, sometimes I am a good girl and put it in the zippered part so it won’t get scratched. Designing something isn’t easy. I wanted something I could use without having to take the ipod out of so that ruled out sock style case thingies. I tried crocheting it and leaving a circle open. Do you have any idea how hard that is? Didn’t think so. After a gazillion attempts I decided not to do it that way. read more »
