FINALLY got my new car today! Can I hear a whoop whoop? It's a lovely new blue Nissan Tiida just like the pic above - minus the Kim Cattrall hood ornament.

Even though I'm just 24, I have come to learn a lot from my astounding powers of observation. In particular, I have observed and scrutinized the male specimen countless times, trying hard to comprehend its complex structure and inner workings. However, no amount of watching Dr. Phil or reading Men's Health will truly let me tap into the inner mind of a man. They are just another breed altogether. If you think women are complicated, you have no idea how bedfuddling men can be. This week alone, here's what I've added to my notes on men:

- Men will never ever admit that they are lost. You might be miles away from any civilization, but a man will not stop and ask for directions. Men will just end up driving straight down the road under the impression that eventually the road will magically lead them to where they're supposed to go.
- Men don't bother with instruction manuals. Those things were made for women and gay men. A real man can just take something out of the box and make it work. Be it a PC, home theatre speaker system, or a new wardrobe from IKEA - men just seem to know where everything slots into place. Sadly on most occasions, their DIY karma goes down the toilet, so they will sit for hours in the middle of a room, staring at the accursed object, trying hard not to looking like a fool for throwing away the instructions. Hours will be spent staring at the damn thing, as if they are willing it to fix itself up.
- Men like things loud and big. It is no use explaining to a man that you are quite happy buying a small car to carry your groceries around - they won't hear any of it. So you soon find yourself driving a Hummer around the streets of Dubai looking like you're doing catering for the Mafia.
- Men don't understand that if you're going out, you will need time to prepare. I am lucky enough to know people who give me plenty of advance notice when we're stepping out, so I have enough time to prep, nip, tuck, suck, and adjust. Most men will open their closet, grab the first thing they can get their hands on, and wear it. Ignore the fact that Hawaii shirts and brown bell-bottoms went out in the '70s - wearing that to your uncle's funeral is fine because hey - he's a man.


On a more personal note, this has been a very good week as I have been lucky enough to meet two very great guys who found me via my blog and had come down to Dubai for a visit. Thanks you guys - I had a great time and hope to see you again real soon! And yes, I will make New York my next stopover. :o)

So I spent this weekend clearing up my PC and loading back Windows - incidentally my computer still runs like a snail. I'm just waiting for the day when I can finally splurge on my MacBook Pro laptop... *sigh*

On a totally random yet related issue, wouldn't it be fun if we could 'format' our lives? My command would go something like this:

format life /noexes /ishappy /apartment /bank:1000000 /boyfriend


So what does your command line look like?

Things I've found annoying this week:

- Coworkers who can tell when you got laid
- People who find it impossible to digest the compliment "You look sexy"
- Mothers who dump their shopping bags into a pram and make their kid walk
- Mothers who ignore said kid when it walks right into you and falls over screaming
- People who expect you to engage your warp drives when the traffic light goes green
- Waiters who spend 5 minutes listening to your order but still fuck it up
- Waiters who insist that the dhal makhanni they brought you is a perfect substitute for the butter chicken that you originally wanted
- People who park diagonally in a parking space
- Pigeons that wake you up in the morning with their loud orgies

Here's an interesting fact - men are more sociable at the scene of an accident than when they're driving on the roads. It's true - when two guys bang their car into each other, you'd expect them to come barging out of their cars with switchblade at the ready. Instead, they saunter out of the car, smile at each other, shake hands, grin like idiots, inspect the damage, and then proceed to look blankly at each other until one of them comes up with the brilliant idea to call the police. After this herculian task is done, they then proceed to chat each other up and discuss things such as the weather, the horrible traffic congestion, and this week's winning lottery number.

In other news, I'm 85% sure I'll be heading to the U.K in the middle of next month for some work training. I have been babbling on about going for a number of months, but today it was confirmed by my boss, so the wheels have been set in motion. Although I half expect that as soon as I board that plane, I get a call from my boss "You know actually, we've decided to bring that guy down here instead to do your training"
