Some dirt

So I am writing this with some semi medium levels of intoxication and it seems I heard in the grapevine well at party which was a BBQ at some friends house that in order for people to read my blog it needs to have some dirt....! like some cracking real life loomi singlehood dating scenarios.....

So while the 2 guys (both hot) one married one single went on about it and were trying to kind of explain to me that if we wanna read your blog blah blah and try to make me speak about my love life which I clearly explained was NOT EXISTANT but didn't wanna explain that my sex life hence was existant.....but I shut up.......listening.......

So is this what it falls down too? adding some dirt on my blog to get more followers and comments!?.....

I can off course bring it on.....

Dubai Winter Sunsets

January and February are the best months for amazing photos....

Been strolling around Dubai beaches and snapped a few nice sunsets....

Check them out!

New Dubai

As Dubai gets smaller - yes it is in my opinion - I look back and think of how its changed since its uprise and now stalled phase in 2010....
1- We don't have anymore "waiting lists" from Airlines, to club memberships, apartment or Villa rentals..
2- Taxis are available all day and night round and when u call they are there in a jiffy...
3- There always seems to be some kind of sales/promotions/discounts/offers somewhere somehow....
These are the big ones for now :)

NY resolutions

Seems most people give up their NY resolutions by February 17....

But b4 I read that yesterday I had already written mine down...

For me the key is not to make them too hard and enjoy them so really want to do them - except drive slower!

The other success factor is sharing them with others and having your friends and family support you and keep you motivated..

So am gonna list them here by no order of importance.... Please list yours and by the end of the year we shud catch up on these and see where we are.....

-Sort out finances and start saving properly

-Bake and share my treats with people ie do like Tea parties once a month

-Spend more playing time with Tuss

-Take Motorbike lessons

-Travel somewhere new

-Continue to take photo lessons, build that portfolio and do that photo exhibition by April

-Write in diary at least once a week

-Do yoga at least once a week

-Make sure not to exceed speeding fines more then 600aed/year

-Decide what charity would like encourage and take part off

I will wait to read yours.....

Haven't tried it yet but will for sure very soon...Keep u posted

The excuses we give men for not being into us women

Emotionally drained
Emotionally unavailable
Emotionally immature
Emotionally unstable
Emotionally detached
etc...
I interpret this into : he's just not into you....
Debra interprets this into : Basically remove the prefix and it appears he's stupid, immature and already in a relationship!
Any others excuses and interpretations are welcome.....

First day of Loomi Blogger

Here we go...Loomi blogging...its about freaking time to post my thoughts, encounters and daily experiences which I usually share either on FB or by email..

I did think of something today (well done lama!) that someone needs to create a site or a blog on where the best spots in Dubai are to take nice pictures from....Woke up at 6am and was roaming the streets of Jumeirah trying to find a nice spot.... ma fi :(
