I'v been going through some problems with work and family and thus have been absent from the blog. Radha tagged me a few days back so here goes.
1. I want life to be simple, quite and peaceful. I don't like big city living, I'd be much happier in a small town where everyone knows everyone else, I could have lived that life but instead I'm in Dubai hoping to one day soon get some peace in my life.
2. I love to read and spend all my free time in a quite place reading anything I can find.
3. I love anything to do with food, love to see, cook and eat. I indulge myself quite often.
4. I can't stay in one place too long, I get agitated so every 3-4 months when I'm at my wits end I go somewhere to get some sanity back.
5. I cant operate a TV, VCR, DVD properly even though every other technology I'm comfortable with, thats probably because I haven't used one in about 7-8 years, everything I do, I do on my computer.
Can't think of who to tag so anyone who wants to do this is welcome.

Dubai the future
Poof... this last week has been crazy busy, but I have some pictures to share with you all. Dubai is spending absurd amounts of money and putting in a great deal of effort to make Dubai what it is. Here are some pictures of what Dubai will have in the future.
Yes Dubai is getting its own universal, and its not just Universal Studios, keeping with the Dubai tradition of making everything into a city its going to be "Universal City Dubailand" Its going to have a theme park with hotels, lakes and the works and rides not seen in any of the Universal parks yet.
This is part of the Bawadi hotel strip a dome with a temperature controlled resort, temperature controlled because it houses its own tropical forest and environment, this project is not small it covers hundreds of acres.
Another property in the Bawadi development, this one is the replica of some castle, what I dont understand is why not be origional when you have unlimited resources. This whole hotel strip is replica of one thing or the other, you can see the Bellagio right behind the castles, the Taj Mahal & great wall to the right and there are numerous other imitations which include the petronas towers, petersburg square and many others.
Another gem in Dubai's crown, this is the Dubai sports city, which houses stadiums, administration offices for sporting bodies, training institutes and hostels for athletes, Dubai is aspiring to host the Olympics and this is one major step towards that.
No this is not a helicopter its the latest in marine entertainment, a new age catamaran.
