      <description>It has been more than three years of joys and pains, shared with this blog. But it is time to move on to a new dream land. I have carried my rather little list of links, of people I miss from miles away in the new blog. 

I hope those who still happen to pass by would take a look here: http://southeastface.blogspot.com

      <description>I know it's been ages and I'm not even sure, if this blog is still functional. Lately I realised what it means being caught up in every day life, when I have no more time to sit and doodle.

But then when you truly love to do something, it's a mistake to keep it waiting. It's important to make time for it. And so here I am. Our race against time, against being able to maximise every minute of it, to be able to do something worthwhile is an obsession. 

I've been too exhausted phsyically and mentally, these past months to be able to write here. I feel it's unfair to just drop in and say a... (more)</description>

      <title>One More for the Road: A Valedictory Speech</title>

      <description>The speech below was forwarded all over the UP Republic, which has found its way to build its pillar (UP sa UAE yahoo group )as far as the desertland, apart from the plenty of ways it could get into my email. 

So anyway, I just thought for a change, why not post something that's not my own thoughts?
I somehow agree with Mikaela. Yes, I support and do believe in originality. I believe that's our only way to find out the rest of what is yet we can discover about our lives and our potentials to change the way things are. There's no hard and fast rule, is there?

I am sure that the path I am... (more)</description>

      <description>First things first, thank you to all my friends who remembered me on my birthday. I really feel special just knowing that you do remember my day (and make me feel that you really do remember, hehe).

Anyway, weeks have passed and I really missed doodling here. I don't have any reflections written yet after that. I was a bit busy churning my new routines, doing some editing jobs now in a place they call here Media City. Here, there's city for every industry or for anything at all. And media is clearly defined as an industry. (Yes, I am back to money-making, not so much though, I try to be... (more)</description>

      <description>I've started picking up on interviews once again. And although, there were some good options in the market right now, I have to admit that I still can't seriously get myself into it. I know for a fact that I cannot stay like this forever and at some point I have to stop wishing and dreaming of something that just can't happen now. No matter how hard I try to look into the things at hand, nothing can come out of it that would significantly change the way I want things to be.

There may be few people who can be so uncompromising during these times, and I wish I could be one of them. But the... (more)</description>

      <description>The fact is I don't know where to begin. 

So let me ask one thing, how do you, in a more personal level commit to environmental preservation? I mean, is it true at all despite everthing going on around us or everybody is just fooling around? 

Yesterday, I went to the supermarket and decided to buy this recyclable shopping bags.  So, they are being friendly to the environment. Why not? No, finally! And me being me, I said yes, why not? Even if I had to pay 2AED for it. Was it a joke?

When I got home and started unpacking the groceries, there is one plastic inside carrying the juice and I... (more)</description>

      <description>I should learn Arabic. In addition to French and Hindi and Punjabi. I should have studied Linguistics. I don't know. But I know I should learn more languages now that I am concentrated on practically nothing. 

I sometimes hate my state. I am always thinking, my husband says. But now, I think I am fine with it. Even if at times, some thoughts are really depressing. Even if at times sporadic thoughts make me get out of bed and open the PC at 4 am. I am starting to learn how to handle it well. I don't know, maybe because when you are getting used to something, you learn how to manage it well.... (more)</description>

      <description>&quot;I'm sitting here in limbo right now, and I know it won't be long&quot; - Tuck &amp; Patti

I was just listening to Tuck and Patti, trying to dance away my rather indescribbable state and then I read this news on the paper: 'Predatory' cow eats chicks alive'. Sorry I can't find a link here but it was reported by Reuters from Kolkata, India. Mind-boggling. I was...stunned. The report said ''lack of vital minerals is causing the behaviour&quot;. 

How do you handle this kind of oddity? Well, if like a DoLittle I can talk to animals, I'd say, &quot;Hey, I made a vegetrian paté', and it's a vegan recipe!&quot;

Yeah,... (more)</description>

      <title>New Concoctions 1: The 'Bistek' Vegetarian</title>
      <link>http://lookofthings.blogdrive.com/archive/102.html</link>

      <description>After becoming a veggie-convert for a few years now and preparing Indian menus for many months now, it seems I have forgotten the taste of authentic Pinoy tastes such as adobo. Lately, I realized Pinoy cooking preparations and its tastes are quite simple. 

So here I’m sharing with you a freshly invented recipe out of my desire to taste once again those tangy memories of bistek without the meat part. It surely is a lot less complicated than preparing masala!

Round slices of potatoes
Mushroom or Tofu (for meat replacement)
Thinly sliced garlic 
Onions cut in rings
Soy Sauce (The authentic... (more)</description>
