Internet Usage - :(

Below is the message that was circulated in our company :( ... So that means - no more FB usage !!!!!

Thats really bad!!! :(

"
Dear All,

It has been observed from the Internet log reports that employees are frequently visiting the websites especially social websites like Facebook, Twitter, Youtube etc. thereby causing:

• Reduction in internet speed and affecting other staff members who need to use it for business reasons.
• Increase in cost due to high usage of bandwidth.
• Hampers web -based business applications.
• Waste of effective use of time for business.

As you will be aware, Internet connectivity in the region is expensive and therefore it is vital that the connections are kept clear for business related traffic.  

Please be advised that use of internet other than business purposes during office hours is strictly prohibited.

All users should close the websites once they have finished browsing.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Everyones a bit upset ... Atleast we can still use the internet!!!! "sigh"

Evening Walk!!!!

I have decided to have my evening walks (atleast 3 - 4 times a week). just started it :)

I preferred to have it in the UIS (United Indian School, Jleeb) ground! I was also surprised to see few of them walking, exercising & also few of them sharing their office talks while walking !!!! Wow, that gave me an inspiration :)

Would love to continue on the same !!!! After all, we know that walking is best for Health !!!!

Happened to see this beside my Office !!!!

I feel sad when I see a situation like this. Hope they will clean the mess soon!!!!

Completed 50 posts in a Months time :)

My Colleagues Bday!

My colleague planned for a treat on the occasion of her bday!!! We did order for lunch from "Dubai Restaurent".

We ordered Irani Kuboose, Chicken Fried Rice, Chicken Kadai, Butter Chicken & Chicken 65. Chicken 65 turned out to be lil dry, but it was good!!! And their Butter Chicken were more with Tomatoes, not chicken :( !!! We called & informed them & they said they will be very careful in Future!!! Usually it never happens like that!!!!

Anyways, Chicken Kadai is always a big hit in Office. ..

Joy Alukkas & Lulu Hypermarket !!!!

If we ever buy gold ... It ought to be from JOY ALUKKAS for us!!! The whole family prefers to go for the gold shopping in Alukkas only!

Well, we wanted to get something for my Sis In law's (Hubby's Sis) daughter! They stay in Abu Dhabi. Kido has turned 1 year few months back! .. but we never got the chance to see her yet!!!

One of my colleagues will be going for a training in Abu Dhabi and It just striked me "Why dont I send something for the lil princess??? " So went ahead and told my IDEA to my hubby who even agreed to it!! So we rushed to Joy Alukkas yday evening & purchased a chain for the lil girl!!!!

Embrace Life - Wear your seat belt!!!!!

Saw a "Human Touch" ad on what happens when you don’t wear your seat belts.

Do watch it.

Let him / her drive .. Pleaseeeee!!!

It almost burst a blood vessel ..... !!!!!!

Men and women are shown grimacing as blood spurts out from their telephones. The tag line: “Don’t talk while he drives”

Isnt it true that many of us just love to talk to friends while we drive .. But how many of us are serious about this ad?? Just hope people understand the true meaning & apply this in their lives!!!

Thought!!!!

Just thought of sharing it!!!!

Message - 1

Last week, on Friday - I had to give a message to the entire congregation. This was during the English Worship service where we just have 4 - 5 families. We just started the English service 3 - 4 weeks back.

Well, when I was told to do it , didnt know how to take it up since this was going to be the first time!! But Prayed over it and decided to do it!

Well, the portion I selected was 1 Corinthians 9: 24. "Run the race in such a way that you win"

Selected four points & talked on it!!!

(1) Need to obey all the instructions as stated in the Bible.
(2) Run with an AIM - Jesus Christ
(3) Run with self control
(4) Endure till the end!!!

I just thank God for giving me the priviledge!!!

Don't Stain Your Reputation!!!

Recently, we started Sunday School in our congregation and I have taken the responsibility to teach the kids.

My kids are of class I & 2. Got around 6 of them. 3 boys n 3 Girls.

I can call them Naughty in nature but very sweet at heart :)

The first day class taught to them was "Worship God only"!!! When I finished the class, they told me "So we must not worship Ben-10" ...   :P Guess my teaching did some effect :)

Well after teaching them, went on to an activity and this is what they did all together!!!

I am so proud of them ... Love u all !!!!

Rgds,
Blissful !

Sweets :)

My colleague Mr. M introduced this sweet in Office which he bought from his home town :)

All of us are now addicted to it & it has become a REAL BIG HIT !!!!!

Jleeb Traffic :(

Have you experianced the same in the mornings esp after 7 am????

I make sure to get out of Abbasiya by 06:45 / 06:50. Sometimes I wonder how these people drive ... Esp the Taxi's and the private transports!!! They think they are the kings of the Road .. Or is  it their attitude!! Whatever it is - they are putting other people's life at stake!!!

Today, The traffice was on the lesser side ... so It was managable!! But what I cant digest is the attitude of certain people!! There is an incident which follows:

As I was coming to the city, there was barely lil space for going to the front (Construction was going on my Left) ! I saw a Fortuner coming in the normal speed but as I was going in the front, this guy decides to play his guts!!! he finds lil space to sqeeze himself from the left and tries to get in front! I had to put a sudden brake or else I was known to hit him!! If I hit him, then the blame is on me ... How Smart!!! I was irriated & I honked at him !!
I just prayed "God, please keep him Safe" Dont let any danger happen to him for his over smartness!!!

Sometimes, I do feel when people are blessed with Material benefits, they think they are on Top of the world ... Why do they do this? What do you get ? Is it some Sarcastic feeling or what!!!

Hope everyone out there drives carefully!!!

Things went smooth today!!!

Today, I was in the passport office (Farwaniya) trying to get the approval for transferring my Mom's residence under mine. She has worked in the Ministry for the past 30 years and now she has retired from her service.

Went ahead & put forward the papers for transferring. Just by Gods grace, got it approved for a year!!! I am soo happy that Mom can stay with us!!!

My Dad passed away here in Kuwait when i was just 3 yrs old!!! From that time onwards, its my mom who went through lot of pain in bringing us up (My bro & Me). But God's with us, he has always been with us!!! Now we two children are settled .. all due to her Prayers & Tears!!!

I didnt want her to be alone , So I just thank God for giving her a chance to be under dependant & God worked in the hearts of the concerened authorities!!!

I fall in this category!!!

Strong women face

the daily trials of life,

sometimes with a tear,

but always with their

heads held high

as the new day dawns.

You're one strong woman,

you truly are

the one who feels deeply

and loves fiercely.

Your tears flows

just as abundantly

as your beautiful smile.
