Feeling Extremely Nostalgic - FFXI
(play this music in the background while reading to get the full effect FFXI - Sarubaruta Music)
For some reason I played an old video I made (9 years ago now) of my linkshell in ffxi Vagrant Alliance. I realized after watching the video how much all those guys meant to me during those years. It made me cry to be honest. Not like sob, but tears ( Read more... ) -
Zaid is 16 Months
All of those earlier worries, about sleep etc seem like distant memories. I guess you do really forget a lot of that type of stuff. I feel so blessed now, Zaid regularly goes to bed at 9pm and doesn't wake till about 9-9:30am the next day. During the day, around 11:30am-2:30pm he naps (3 hours). He's such a great baby. He never cries or whines ( Read more... ) -

I like being older and having no pressure. Hamid's and my life ( Read more... ) -

Bought tickets to Istanbul for September. Surprisingly cheap that time of year. Very excited. I can't go 1 full year without travel. I'll die ( Read more... ) -
Good ol' Lj.
I still love this old thing. I want to keep it up, but it's become harder. When you're happy and don't need to digest and stew on every emotion and contemplate why you feel that way, well, then you just don't ( Read more... ) -
Traveling.
*Sidenote: Hamid and I have already set the money aside to buy our first trip together. I was hoping for Egypt, but since it's still so unstable there we've settled for Indonesia (though Hamid really wanted Turkey). Mainly Bali, but I have friends in living in Jakarta so we'll be traveling around the islands. Aiming for sometime before monsoon ( Read more... ) -
Life Now in Laguna Niguel - Age 28
Life is good. I am probably the happiest I've ever felt with the "day to day" normalcy of life. I am not restless, I am calm, and I've lost that "grass is always greener" mentality. I love being right where I am ( Read more... )
