September 13 UAE Culture And Dress CodeHeya :)
UAE is a multicultural country where we have many people from many different cultures, backgrounds and continents!!! Despite this it doesnt mean that we should make our country and culture please them .. They should make an effort to adapt to out country and culture if not they'd better LEAVE ... AM SERIOUS!!!!!
Etiquette is important to us (Locals), and by making an effort to understand local custom and culture, many doors will open for them that if they make and effort. The culture here has evolved from a deep-rooted belief in Islam (Sigh), which is more than just a religion. It is a total way of life, which governs every activity and decision that is made in daily life. These are a few guidelines for behaviour and dress code that will become a part of your every day life in the United Arab Emirates. What is a DRESS CODE??? Its a set of rules specifying the correct manner of dress while on the premises of the institution (or specifying what manner of dress is prohibited) and guess what we have a dress code here it is liberal in Dubai compared to other Middle Eastern cities, particularly in the residential western expat areas where women wear shorts and sleeveless shirts. However, Abu Dhabi is more conservative than Dubai and as a mark of respect it is advisable for women to dress accordingly. Long skirts or long trousers, and T-shirts or shirts with sleeves covering at least the upper arm should be worn in Abu Dhabi, and any area in the United Arab Emirates that is predominantly Arab. (I dont see that) Men may dress casually in the western expat areas, but should wear long pants when in Abu Dhabi or the downtown area of Dubai. The dress code is less formal for children, although adolescent girls would be advised to dress moderately in order to avoid attention. Both local men and local women are easily distinguished by their traditional dress, which is a common sight in the United Arab Emirates. Men wear the long white Dishdasha and headdress, while women wear the black Abaya. Being an Islamic country modest clothing is recommended, particularly in rural areas! Dress code is only a personal matter in regards to colour and style. I don’t really care if expats make up 85 per cent of this country, it is still a Muslim country with a Muslim majority and the dress issue is getting worse and worse every day. Have respect for our country, our people and our children who are forced to see your thongs showing over your low-waisted pants, and our kids say “mommy what’s that?” and then you have tattoos just above your waistline for extra effect.You also put your never ending cleavage on show, along with superduper mini skirts that show the puff of your bottom, which is bare because of the thong, and see-through blouses. Even forget that you are in a Muslim country and just be aware that other people are around you. I lived in the United States and believe me the way you people dress is seriously bad. Normal people in the United States have more dignity when it comes to dress and what is proper.
July 10 Zizo le numéro unGood Day!
After seeing the head-butt video I was shocked when I came to understand why Zidane acted this way...
See the video closely ... What do you see?!!?! Materazzi twisted Zidane's nipple and then said something racist to him, and that made him lose his usual cool. It's not hard to tell what happened. No doubt Zidane will explain himself over the next days. In any case, this moment should not be allowed to overshadow his glorious career. He has the total right to be mad, but what he's done was totally stupid and out of place. He could've replied Verbally! but still say Zidane is a hero and while he might have lost the championship he has won our hearts cause he will remain a hero in our minds forever for "defending his honor". I remain in shock, though. ![]() Materazzi you suck !!! Sorry Italian Fans Zizo le numéro un June 20 THIS MUST STOP!
What do u have to say???
Here are some smilies and icons for you all :)

![]() June 17 *sigh*Good Morning!!
Last week was a very tough and heavy week to me ... Loosing a person is never too easy!
Life is such a small worthless place ... *sigh* We will all die some day and all we will take with us
is our good deeds ... No clothes, no money, no friends, no nothing!
And while I was trying to survive the mourning and grief I was thinking to myself who will be there for me?
Do I have true friends who will stick by my side and help me get pass this grief?
Out of many people I know .. so called "FRIENDS" I have been able to see clearly who are those true friends.
TorturedLady ~ My Best Friend
M!Lo ~ My Close Friend (Childhood friend)

H and Y ~ Friends From Work
Al.Mohra , Roo7 el gareeb, Galbena Wa7ed, ShamC, 6am6am ~ Friends From College

والله الدنيا ماتسوى حنا شو محصلين منها شو فايدة الزعل والتكبر والرمسه عن الناس! June 10 الله يرحمج يا يدواللهم اغفر لها وارحمها وعافها واعف عنها وأكرم نُزُلها . ووسع مُدخلهُا . واغسلها بالماء والثلج والبرد ، ونقها من الخطايا كما ينقى الثوب الأبيض من الدنس ، وأبدلها داراً خيراً من دارها ، وأهلاً خيراً من أهلها وزوجاً خيراً من زوجها وأدخلها الجنة وأعذها من عذاب القبر ( ومن عذاب النار)
اللهم اغفر لحينا وميتنا ، وشاهدنا وغائبنا ، وصغيرنا وكبيرنا ، وذكرنا وأُنثانا ، اللهم من أحييته منا فأحييه على الإسلام ، ومن توفيته منا فتوفه على الإيمان ، اللهم لاتحرمنا أجره ولاتضلنا بعده ،
اللهم آميـــــــــــــــــــــــــــــن.
الله يرحمج يا يدو
June 03 Depression & SarcasmHiya!
For a while I've been feeling disinterested all the time to the extend that I never even feel like getting out of bed, Just like am Bummin' on life. What's wrong with me? I never used to be like this ... Thinking of reasons was hard for me.
A question pops out:
How can I tell the difference between being depressed or just being in a down, funky mood? I read the answer for this question somwhere it said that the first step is to understand depression. "Depression" is not a choice. It's like an ongoing state of being totally bummed out, and you can't just snap out of it. Many things can trigger it, like the:
Therefore depression is an illness, and because it is an illness, it is treatable. In most cases, you can get rid of it with medicine that keeps neurotransmitters (chemicals in the brain that affect moods) in check. Going to talk-therapy with a professional therapist is another form of helpful treatment.
The second step is to pay attention to your moods over a set amount of time (like a week) and rate your feelings using the following guide on a scale of one to 10.
Whenever you have depression of nine or 10, which is when you just don't feel like living anymore, you must get help immediately.
mmmmmmm ... I think that its a tad mood that's all from my side.

Have u ever been in a situation where u had faith and hope and was so confident of urself and suddenly something happenes and shatteres your heart, hope, faith and dreams I wish I can heal myself and 4get what just happened!Its just a slap on the face which tells you " Wake up! you failed again" March 25 Presentation Nerves![]() ![]() Lose the Fear - Get out there and speak. You've heard it said many times before am sure
While there are many effective methods of relaxation that can help reduce our fear of speaking, the most important step is fundamental. We must begin by recognizing that making presentations is a learned skill. For most of us, it is not something we can simply get up and do effectively without having at least some basic training. Effectiveness is always a reasonable goal even with those executives who don't speak often. But perfection is unrealistic, and impossible.
The single most important thing you can do for sweaty palms is rehearse.
The more familiar you become with your material, the more the words flow from you credibly and passionately. The more comfortable you feel with your words, the more naturally you present your speech. That's why good speakers practice - and practice again. Here are two simple ways for you to rehearse your presentation. Remember that Nothing will improve your presentation more than seeing yourself on videotape and listening to yourself on audio tape is another tool to use when you rehearse your presentations. Perhaps the quickest way to decrease speech anxiety is to allow the emotion of the subject to fill your heart. Those who speak with passion will most certainly have less anxiety. As speaker Roxanne Emmerich says, "When you are so committed to the meaning of your message, you can't contain yourself and there is no energy left for being nervous."
Now You're Ready!
Now lets imagine this You've just been introduced. You walk to the lectern and are about to say your first words. Wait! You have one more chance to unwind. Try this: pause for a few seconds and "take in" your audience. Establish eye contact with them. Breathe deeply, smile, and allow yourself to relax for a moment. Now you are ready to begin!
Presentations can't be that bad .. Be Confident
March 19 Weather Forcast![]() 03-17-2006 The heavy wind didn't stop from breezing since the morning and now its raining and raining mashalla

Hola amigos
Many people enjoy doing many different things. And many have different ways to delite and relax themselves
Today I went through my old writings and came across a story i wrote on March 2005 called "Reversed from death" and I would be glad to share it with you all [but amaze me with ur comments] ..
It was an ordinary day where I woke up and went to college. There I met some friends and talked about the same old stuff we talked about yesterday. When I finished my classes I decided to go home because I was tired. I got in my car and drove showed the security my ID card and waved good bye. I was tired and could barely open my eyes so I drove at high speed to reach home quickly and lay on bed.
Suddenly out of nowhere a large truck come out of nowhere and crashed into me. I was unaware of the time but all of a sudden I felt like flying. I looked at the corner of the room to find my parents in tears. I waved and shouted out loud but no one answered me nor saw me. Here I knew that I was dead and my soul now could fly everywhere and see the world without the fake acts of its people. I decided to wander around so I flew to my parents and kissed them. Then I found myself at the college doors and I hanged around people and heard them talk.
I found out that every two must talk about a third person in his/her absence. And everyone is nice to his/her friend as long as he/she needs him then its over. Anyhow there was no proof that they knew my death as my name was not mentioned. Then another friend appeared and broke the news of my death. Then the show began and it was time for me to know how these friends felt about me. Some were really touched, some cried and others showed no feelings and I started to hear how people felt about me. Some liked me and others didn’t. This is normal but what hurted me was that some of the friends those who I helpe | ||||||||||
