Oh, yeah, it is running away and I think it was not even the fastest one, I'm just getting back now to the usual jet plane an MC member is taking at work :)
So, the last week in nutshell (and just to be true to myself, in numbers): 3 Business meetings, 2 visits to Irbid (yeah, countryside rocks :P), 1st SG meeting (amazing!), 1st skype chat with mum :), dealing with 20 excell sheets (at least 5 in the same time), 1st time alone in a taxi (and not getting lost!), 1st time cooking absolutelly alone (and there was only a bit of smoke :P), meeting and meetings and more meetings to come like an endless flow (fun to have people around...it charges me up), about 200 e-mail sent, 1st ever rugby match visited (Yella Jordan!), having free weekend (yuhuuu, new discoveries in life!), 1st live chat with my MCP...and having less then 1 week until I will be alone to handle ER and Finance in Jordan!
Well, I guess you see that things are happening around me, mainly work, but June, July is usally like this. I hope when the full team will come together we can hang out a bit, see more from the city (yeah, that means more photos :P).
What I'm also glad about is that slowly I'm back to my usual productivity. Why it is cool? Besides being happy of being productive it also means that slowly I'm getting used to the environment...or at least I get used to have strange and new things around me every time...and that I learn not to get surprised on anything :) Slow process, but it is going on ;)
There is something interesting just reading back one line, about learning not to get surprised. It's in a way like taking things how they come, but on the other hand is making your way whatever is happening. It is easy to get lost in here (and I'm not meaning that where you go) just simply everytime something new and somthing different is coming and it is sometimes really hard to keep the speed. It is like a race or a competition with time and I just realized that if you go into deep surprise on everything new 2 things will happen: 1. Many other things you will just miss, so you won't understand things, 2. you just feel down that again, you were not fast enough to adjust course, method, style of speach (spelling...sorry Firas). It is a deadly intersting race though. It's not like you have the court, the curve and you just race with known people or oponents. It's like you want to get through fast in a jungle, and you don't know what you find under the next leaf, behind the next tree (or crazy taxi driver :P They are anyway fun :)). So welcome everyone in the big race...let's join yours and test your acceleration and try and impress everybody around you (if you can...the challenge is yours)
Ok, I think I'm getting philosophical, just simply this is my mood. Writing down things helps to digest (not your dinner :P), so I'm guessing you gonna get a few of such post in the next year...such as life.
And yeah I know the common request...more photos :)

hellooo
this is what came to my mind reading your last sentences and thoughts:
(not written by me but an -for me- unknown girl)
SLOW DANCE
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask "How are you?"
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?
You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say "Hi"?
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.
...what do you think? :)
hugs
M
This blog deserves an update! (so do we) :)
