My Immortal

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

Beautiful Sad Song, one of my Favourites.

New Study: Emotionally Smart Women Have Better Sex:
A recent study suggests that women who score high in emotional intelligence — meaning they are good at expressing feelings and empathizing with others — have more fun in bed as well.

It makes sense. If you're in touch with your feelings, can suss out how your partner feels, and express what you want — sex will be better than if you're closed off, have no clue what another person is feeling, and lack communication skills.
Professor Tim Spector of King's College in London asked more than 2,000 female twins between the ages of 18 and 83 about their sex lives, including how they rated their ability to have an orgasm. They were also asked to fill out a questionnaire that determined to what degree they were emotionally intelligent, or flourished in self expression, empathy and contentment.

Emotional intelligence also makes it easier, researchers say, for women to fantasize about sex, which is always a good thing. I wonder, though, if it's important for men to have emotional intelligence to be good in bed or to enjoy themselves more? Something tells me they might have fun no matter what...

Happiness is all that matters

We can be so caught up in the day to day commotion of our lives that it's rare we get a chance to step back and look at life as a whole. But psychiatrist George Vaillant has been doing that every day for the last 42 years as head of the Harvard Study of Adult Development.

The study began in 1937 by following 268 Harvard male undergrads, who were deemed "well-adjusted" by the day's standards. It has followed the men through school, marriage, career, parenthood, divorce, illness, and — for half the participants — death.

What has Dr. Vaillant learned? "The only thing that really matters in life are your relationships to other people." "Happiness is love" he says, "full stop."

Stop worrying about your current relationships, obsessing about your past, future, nothing matters but your own happiness, and what you do now to help change your life to make you have a more stable and happier future..

Always smile, and smile to others, it will make a big difference to you and to the person your smiling to..:)

At Night

Its during the night when my cheeks touch my soft fluffy pillow when it starts. When bad memories start creeping into my head. My brother's accident, tears in my eyes, I learned today that the toughest times in your life, or the special day in your life are the days that you won't ever forget. You remember every detail as it happened yesterday. The pain in my lungs passes through my heart and my stomach, it makes me feel sick, but that's just pain. Or is it sadness? I don't know anymore. My little brother, was walking with his freinds on February 25,2004 in shalai minding their own business, enjoying the weekend, it had rained earlier that day, the ground was still moist and wet, out of nowhere a cable falls onto them touches my little brother's friend first, and takes his life, just like that. Then my little brother seeing this jumps, but the damn wire/cable touches him, do you know what happens to you when you get electricuted? The electricity finds its way through your body, passes through your organs, ruining whatever it wants, and decides whether to leave your body or not. Luckily, for my little brother, it left his body. Now, my baby brother is lying on the wet, moist ground in bnaider, and his freinds are running to them screaming their heads off and crying for help..
The damned cops came seeing my brother on the ground assumed he was dead, they covered his body, seeing this a man walking by runs to my brother and starts kicking his chest afraid to get the shock. Suddenly my brother coughed, and started screaming from the pain, he was alive. Two young guys carried my little brother, and drove off as fast as they could to the hospital, those three guys saved my little brother's life. I thank God for that everyday in my prayers.
I was home that day, when I heard the news, by that time they were taking him to Babtain Hospital for burnt casualties. I didnt care how my brother looked like, I wanted to hold him, at least see him and tell him that I love him. But we were not allowed to.
Friends and family gathered to support us, praying and waiting for my baby brother to get out of his coma, he was in Intensive care, and wasn't allowed to be touched cuz of the bacteria we carried. It was critical.
Day4, we can see him now, we did before but just through the window, his face was black, same features, it was scary, it was hard, but he is my brother, and we had to be strong for him.
He is a smart kid, after seeing his freinds wearing their dishdashas, he started remembering what happened, the accident, the STUPID accident. He knew his freind/cousin Aziz allah yer7uma had passed away, wearing their dishdashas meant that they were at his funeral.
After two weeks, it was time for damage control, my brother's face was burnt, between his wrists and arms, part of his tummy, and one of his legs. His leg was the most hurt, he had lost a fraction of his bone, poor baby brother loved football, he was very athletic, and full of energy. The Dr's managed to fix his leg by putting a fixator which saved him. The Dr's abroad told us if that fixator wasn't put on his leg he would have lost his leg.
Hamdila, we took him to Paris, to the best hospital that handles burned casualties, there my brother was saved, with many many surgeries, my baby brother is thank God alive and well..:)

Meaningful Thoughts

I Have "Anemia"

I've always had anemia since College it started getting aggressive. Whenever I over work my body or I'm stressed out for any reason I get dizzy immediately and that's when I know I have to go see my Dr. I get a blood check and he finds out that my hemoglobin is low..
The Cure?
*Plenty of rest.
*Prescribed pills called (Ferglobin) which helps with the formation of my Red blood Cells.
*Eating the right foood (Alot of greens, veggies, red meats, Vitamin C)...Foods High with Iron.

Why Are Red Blood Cells Important for Us?
*RBD carries Oxygen to your body tissues.

What Are the Causes of Anemia?
Anemia can be caused by many things, but the three main bodily mechanisms that produce it are:

1.excessive destruction of RBCs
2.blood loss
2.inadequate production of RBCs
Among many other causes, anemia can result from inherited disorders, nutritional problems (such as an iron or vitamin deficiency.

It Sucks having it, but I try to avoid it as much as I can, by going to the gym, resting, and eating the right food.

Will the Swine Flu Affect Your Travel Plans?

Swine Flu is continuing to spread to numerous healthy people, over 100 cases have been reported now in 11 US states. Canada, Austria, New Zealand, Israel, Britain, and Germany have also reported cases of swine flu sickness. In Mexico, 159 people have died and more than 1,300 are being tested for the infection.
This is extremely serious, as the World Health Organization has raised its pandemic alert for swine flu to phase 5 (phase 6 is the highest level). Officials from the US, Japan, Britain, France, Canada, Israel, Australia, and other countries are discouraging nonessential travel to Mexico. Even Cuba and Argentina have suspended flights to and from Mexico, so with these recent travel restrictions... people becareful!

Naked Bike Ride

World naked Bike Rides happen all over the world, and no, it's not a way for nudists to get daily exercise. They are peaceful demonstrations whose main purpose is to bring awareness about the dangers and vulnerability faced by bikers on the road. It reminds automobile drivers that they need to share the street and pay more attention to their fellow two-wheelers. The Naked Bike Ride is also a protest against cars and the negative impact our dependency on oil-based fuels has on our planet. Riding naked brings attention to the act of bike riding and urges people to use environmentally friendly transportation instead.

Interesting huh?
I wonder what we can do here in Kuwait to help those stupid bikers and stupid 3agads with their stupid cars to takecare while driving cuz they might not just hurt themselves but hurt the ones around them!

And with our 50 degres weather here in Kuwait I can faint if I chose to ride a bike to my way to work, on the other hand with the crowd, it might get me there faster:P (Ofcourse with the right accessories with me).

Blueberries Battle Belly Fat

Long considered a super food, another benefit of blueberries was discovered in a University of Michigan lab. New research found a diet rich in blueberries may help diminish belly fat.
Even after they are frozen, blueberries maintain most of their nutritional benefits. The antioxidants found in the berries, which create their rich hue as well, are not affected by freezing. Frozen blueberries will lose a bit, less than 20 percent, of their vitamin E content as well as a bit of beta carotene. This means you can add blueberries to your diet all year, be they fresh or frozen. Remember though, the darker the berry the more antioxidants it will provide.

5 McDonalds Menu Items Under 300 Calories

When on the road or in a rush, grabbing a quick meal is sometimes unavoidable. So if you find yourself having to stop into a McDonald's, here are five menu options under 300 calories. ;)
*Hamburger
This hamburger made with a 100 percent beef patty, pickles, onion, ketchup, and mustard all on a toasted bun contains 250 calories. Add a slice of American cheese and the total becomes 300 calories.
*Chicken McNuggets:
A six-piece order of Chicken McNuggets contains 280 calories. That works out to about 46 calories per nugget, but doesn't include the dipping sauce. Barbeque, honey, or sweet 'n sour sauce adds an additional 50 calories per container.
*French Fries
A small order of fries contains 230 calories. If you up your order to a size medium, the calorie amount jumps to 380. Yikes!
*Salad With Grilled Chicken
You have two salad options under 300 calories. The Bacon Ranch Salad With Grilled Chicken contains 260 calories. The Caesar Salad With Grilled Chicken contains less at 220 calories. Neither includes the salad dressing, though. Tack on 100 calories for Newman's Own Creamy Southwest dressing, 190 calories for Creamy Caesar, 40 for Lowfat Balsamic Vinaigrette, 60 for Lowfat Italian, and 170 calories for Ranch dressing.
* Fruit 'n Yogurt Parfait
For breakfast, a snack, or dessert, enjoy a Fruit 'n Yogurt Parfait made with blueberries, strawberries, creamy lowfat yogurt, and granola topping for just 160 calories.

Yummmy!! I don't think we have that Kinda salad in our Menu yet! but we do have other salad selections which can do the trick, (The tuna salad is good). As for the Fruit 'n Yogurt sure does look DELICIOUS! I'm a fan of strawberry Yogurt esp in the mornings, and just out of the blue trick to make you guys eat less during lunch, have a yogurt any kind you like before having lunch an hour or half an hour before your meal..it will make you eat less!

So go and Have a Happy Meal!
