Google’s Birthday Reminder
It’s amusing how thoughtful google could get. Reminiscing birthdays of famous creators such as Antoine de Saint-Exupery, (the Little Prince) is a truly sweet act. Wiki says his book is second most popular to the bible (#1), upon its release. Whoever has read the book would always think the credits are rightfully given. The exuding…

Lovecast
Do I love you just for your sunny soul? For the brightness you cast on my daily toil? Do I cherish you simply for your sought-after smile? Of which sweetness (and madness)my heart swell (in delight)? Perhaps I have loved you for your timely words, Sharp as a pen’s edge yet healing my wounds, Maybe…

The Genei Ryodan
The most notorious, perhaps the most powerful group ever to invade the world of manga, Genei Ryodan deserves a huge fandom for the character profiles alone.

A Dose of “House”
Watching ‘House’ annihilates the before-bedtime drama I used to habitually conceive. It’s neither a calming capsule nor a sleeping pill. (Perhaps an ecstasy? But, not.) Though symptoms like turned-up hair ends, and highly activated senses (except for taste and smell) appear, House is never a drug to fear, none the less a fatal virus, just…

The Call of the Wild
To heed the call of the Wild was the only way to survive. Buck struggled to learn life lessons in an undomiscated, severe, savage environment far from his previous master’s peaceful, and prosperous villa after he was stolen and sold to a group of men carrying couriers to and from the chilly North. It was indeed tough to…

The Zoldyck Family Arc: Where Darkness Meets Friendship and Nen Takes Center Stage
There’s a reason the Zoldyck Family arc is a fan favorite! This arc plunges Gon and Killua into a heart-stopping adventure filled with action, suspense, and a blossoming friendship. Remember how Killua was held captive by his twisted family? Gon, Leorio, and Kurapika’s daring infiltration of the Zoldyck mansion was unforgettable. The place itself was…

Si Tatay
He never called me pretty, Never did he say I’m his princess, Rarely did I please him with my clothes, Hardly did he like my hair long. He let me dig pits in the backyard, Fetch containers of water from afar, He’d scold me when I neglect my siblings, He’d hate me when of them,…

Who’s Eligible for UAE Visa from EK?
On short notice, I was asked to arrange a meeting for 10 pax at Al Ain and prepare the accommodation and visa of a guest speaker coming from Qatar. If one is a GCC (Gulf Cooperation countries) national, she can get her visa upon arrival, but she happens to be Lebanese so she has to apply for…

If Life is War…
Bored of my first few days at work, I downloaded an e-book “The Art of War“. T’was surely more than an ennui-buster. Though physically, t’was a painful read (the texts could be hardly seen as they were intentionally blurred), urging readers to buy the original copy, perhaps. I was glued to the lessons on the FIVE BESETTING…

No Stumble
Living on fear is advanced death. Thriving on doubts is rottening raw. Relishing fright is decaying alive. Murmuring dread is cursing life. What scares you? What makes your heart leap as kangaroos? What dims your wit and denies light? Facing the music? Dancing out of tune? Laughing alone? A mocking crowd? Long old age? Young death? Hurting words?Depressing news? Spoiling success? Haunting…
