Hapifiou

so I just post a pix of an event done yesterday evening...... Still very busy and fighting with my own ghosts!!!!!! and it burns all my energy...Pffffff

Ages I did not give any news and I am sorry but I have not even see this week running as we are busy like crazy. I leave home around 7am and back around 9pm..... Today is the end of the week and if I don't fall asleep before, I really would like to go out for a drink ;-)

Anu has left the Company yesterday because she will get married end of the year. Nothing special you will tell me but it's an arranged marriage and it's amazing me. Not in the bad way, don't misunderstand me.

Anu is indian, very well educated in the best business school in London and she grew up in Dubai. 2 weeks ago she went to London for a family trip and when she came back she told us she was engaged. She has met The One during this trip and then, as it seems to get along, they have decided to get engaged. But Anu has a strong caracter and she knows what she wants so instead of getting married next month which is the "coutume", she convinced her family and her fiance to spend some time together (not living together, you are crazy or what ;-)) before getting married.

The most amazing is that she will not marry a traditional indian but the One grew up and lives in Chicago. He is a Doctor and has never been living in India but he seems more traditionnal than the indians themselves.

I have spent some time with Anu asking her many questions as I am amazed and very interested in this tradition and my feeling today is that maybe it's a better way to get along with a husband. I mean when I see all the divorces in Europe I think maybe we don't have the good receipe.

We are not looking for the same things and building a successful couple life seems definitely to be a mystery for me ;-)))

I think I will try this one in my next life !

Follow this blog...... and you will read how Israeli and Lebenese discuss together of what's happening.....

Couple of questions come to my mind and bother me because I hate the answers

- Who is behind Israeli?

- Who as created Hezbolah?

- Why Bush is against the UN Resoltion to stop the situation?

- Why it happens only couple of weeks after the failure of Bush with Iran.......

Come onnnnnnn Guysssssssssss open you eyes!!!!!!!

Lebenon is sacrified and it makes me sick!!!!!!!!!

Dear All

While everyone is trying to justify what is Isreal doing in Lebanon, and while some of our fellows and brothers are accusing that the Lebanese resistance caused this level of tension in the region, Children of Lebanon are dying everyday and no one wants to see or listen.

Lebanon is not only Downtown beirut or Mono street or Brumana or Bhamdoun and Alley, Lebanon is not about fancy Hotels and restaurants and night clubs. Open your eyes, Lebanon is all about its people who refuses to die everyday and this is what Isreal is trying to destroy.

Please do forward this email to everyone you know. do it for the favor of a country that you know, do it for a favor of one of your friends who is lebanese , do it as a favor for all humans in the world. LET THIS STOP

What'a happening to the world.....

We are neighbours (almost) with Lebanon and the situation is really affecting us. Aline is lebanese and her family went away from the city to the mountains couple of days ago. She has the Radio on during all day and her face shows her worries. Farimah has a friend arriving form Beirut this thursday. She will stay with her until the situation comes down. We will welcome her at the office to keep her busy!!!!

Follow the Beirut Blogs instead of reading media.....

http://www.bloggingbeirut.com/ this one is about the daily life, nothing from politics....

Otherwise go on http://the-lebanon.com/directory/People/Lebanese_Blogs/

I would like to be on a sailing boat in the middle of the sea (with a skipper of course!!!) I am mad but not crazy....

Nothing to say, not in a great mood, life is not easy so I prefer to take my camera instead of chating.......

La tradition veut que l'on fete les anniversaires au bureau et une fois n'est pas coutume, j'ai eu droit a un Boooo gateau rose et au choeur qui l'accompagnait. Je ne sais pas d'ou cela vient mais l'autre tradition veut que chaque personne vous donne une bouchee du gateau. Bon ok vous etes 8 ca passe mais 28, bonjour l'indigestion ;-)

Tout a bien commence jusqu'a ce que Alyona, notre lithuanienne dechainee, veuille profiter de l'occasion pour me tartiner la figure... on s'est battues mais elle n'y est pas arrivee, remarque il s'en est fallu de peu et c'est Arshad qui a gagne ;-)))

Quoi! tu n'aimes pas les Potato chips Tiffanny ;-)))))))))

10 jours de vacamces c'est court surtout lorsque l'on en passe 2 a faire des aller retour a l'hopital a essayer d'attraper au vol ces crises de palpitations. 3 crises en 3 jours, ca m'a epuisee....

Premiere tentative? Loupee, le bougre s'est arrete avant. Deuxieme tentative. je l'ai eu, avec l'aide de Papchoux qui, tel un bolide au petit jour, a roule vers la ville sans meme avoir pu enfourner sa tartine matinale... Merci du fond du coeur ;-)))) Bref, nous sommes arrives rapido presto et l'infirmiere me demande de m'asseoir et d'attendre. 5 minutes passent, je me releve et lui dis..Euhhhhh ca fait deux fois que je viens et si on ne me fait pas l'electro d'urgence, la crise va encore s'arreter. A S S E Y E Z  V O U S  L A  E T  A T T E N D E N D E Z...

Euhhh vous pouvez peut etre prevenir le cardiologue au moins....

Elle ouvre la porte du medecin et revient 30 secondes plus tard, et m'attrape par le bras.. Aller, hop hop hop pas de temps a perdre, on file aux urgences faire l'electro, il ne manquerait plus que la crise s'arrete... (je reve)

On me colle sur un lit, mettez vous torse nu, vite vite vite.... les electrodes..... vite vite vite... ouf! on l'a choppee sur le papier. Bon, enfilez la blouse quand meme... ok ok! Speedy cardio entre dans la piece, regarde l'electro et dit Ah! en effet, attends on va faire un monitoring.... putain ils sont ou les machins..... euh doc, je crois que.... putain mais vous les rangez ou? Ben la docteur, vous ennervez pas? Euhhh Doc..... enlevez lui sa blouse, que je place les ventouses, putains mais Flo, t'a pas fait un noeud a ta blouse quand meme, ben si Docteur, elle a meme fait une jolie rosette... Ah ben oui, suis une fille et suis pudique moi!!!!!!!

Au fait Flo, tu voulais dire quelque chose depuis tout a l'heure? Ben oui, que la crise s'est arretee juste apres l'electro donc pas la peine de t'ennerver pour le monitoring... Pffff t'aurais pas pu le dire plus tot?

Bon, tu repars quand? Mardi? Pfff trop court pour operer. Aller, on double les medocs et on verra ca a Noel..... Et il repart a toute allure.
