Constants....

Throughout our lives we see faces,things,places change but yet there remain some constants, the constants help us in a way that we never really appreciate.
Constants in my life over the last few years:
There were 3 since but now there are 2, one i figured would be a constant but that never materialised, so the 2 that remain are
1.The Arsenal Football Club:
Who i am proud to say are in the CL playoff stages, we played Udinese today and again i took some time to watch the game and it was nerve racking, being 1-0 down at half-time, i felt so frustrated, it was a very bad,depressing, sinking feeling but then we won 2-1 and it was fantastic!!!!
Some people think i attach too much importance to a football club? i know i do, but then like i have said before it is my release from my frustrations in life and when they win, my day becomes a hell of a lot better, we all need something or the other to channel out our negative energy or rather release some from time to time, some people run, some do yoga, some meditate, me i watch the gunners play:-)
2.Oreo
Here is a picture, need i say more :-)

Writing....

Has been a passion all my life,not that i am particularly good at it, but i try and i hope keeping this blog updated everyday plays a little part in honing my writing skills, no matter how little i am sure it has an impact.
My day was good, i solved my work problem, so kudos to me, i am not very good at a lot of things, but i do like to think i am smart and i can solve problems and i am very good with numbers and i am thankful for that because otherwise i would be a complete disaster! people who know me can attest to that!! i don't do anything around the house, i am usually lazy,i am spoilt and i hate manual work!! I think i am going to change that though!!!! i hope!(a lot of exclamation marks)
So i penned a few lines again today since i felt inspirational, again very amateurish work but here goes, i called it I Promise
I Promise
My mind wonders how ?
something,something strong,
could be defeated so easily?
No words could express,
The confusion, the doubt
That runs through my veins,
The answer,
Why?
Questions answering an answer
Why?
The last question lingering
Were you real?
Or Just one of my needs?
It needs to be answered,
Today, Tomorrow, One Day,
I promise!

Spare a Thought....

For Jack Layton, the NDP leader who passed away, the NDP was the closest party to what my ideology stands for and i thought jack was a very charismatic leader, somone who definitely would have carried the NDP a long way, RIP Jack Layton....
Back to my day, i got home early today, and to be honest had a very boring day, i am still trying to figure out something at work and it bothers me that i am not coming up with right answer, i know i will.... maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after
But more importantly i have something on my mind that is bothering me!, why do i manage to screw up relationships? i try to be as nice as possible but somethings i need to work on harder,i compare people in my head and when something does not seem right instead of working on it my brain shuts down and i am not interested anymore and it shows in more than one facet of the relationship, obviously the other person is annoyed and rightly so!I guess its baby steps time, one thing at a time, take each person for who they are and move on from there, every individual has good qualities and bad and no two people can ever be the same, i need to nail that in.... otherwise there will more problems in relationships that lie ahead!
One good thing that has happened in the recent past though is that i am blogging more, i find that this is a good channel for me to write how i feel about things and writing is very soothing.... and for this i will be thankful to my lady friend for it is she who inspired me to blog more!

The Weekend....

On the whole can be classified as a good one, i went out for drinks last night with a really good friend and we chatted, i was watching Master Chef all evening after i got home from tdot and was craving dessert! but alas was too late when we reached the goat after drinks!!!! so no dessert for sherine!
Its been raining here all day though and pretty heavy as well,i like the rain though, and un-characteristically i went out for a morning walk in pouring rain all by myself, was nice but then i usually run into people when i am out walking(not that i do much of that)and this morning was no different, ran into a colleague and we had coffee and a nice conversation, so much more to people when you meet them outside of work, sometimes i wonder if we put on masks which shield us from everyone and everything at work,,,, i saw a very different side of her, interesting to say the least!
Watching Master Chef has made me feel like cooking since yesterday, so not just craving dessert but coming up with some on my own as well, i was not that adventurous, because i do not bake but i did make an interesting fusion dish, sausage diced up, veggies, thai sambal paste, soya sauce,oyster sauce, lightly pan fried in olive oil and it turned out pretty good, i guess i should be watching more cooking shows!!
