aaah… a good weekend is sooo unbelievably therapeutic.. reminds me of Andrea who used to keep telling me in her very german accent ‘Raaaaj…. you should go out and have some ffuuun on the weekends – forget work for atleast one day of the week’ – it reeeeaaaallly helps’ – and there i would sit nodding my head in agreement, turn back to my computer – set my glasses in place – and say to myself ‘fuck die Wochenende…geh zu wirken’

So for all those wasted weekends in good ol Aussieland – and for every great weekend yet to come in life … i dedicate to you Andrea Hiller ! ;P

So what was it really that made my weekend fun ?? well… nothing really special – just a lot of unplanned and spontaneous things.

-Out Shopping with sis on Thursday – bought meself a tshirt that i actually liked ( see… i am extremely picky when it comes to clothes — so i could spend weeks in a mall and not buy anything at all )

-‘Blade Trinity’ on Thursday night( which btw was a load of shite – terrible movie! and it got worse when the two filipino gays sitting next to me started making out yuuuuuuuuuuuucchhhhh !! i consider myself to be quite tolerant to the homosexual race but this quite was beeeyyyyond tolerance)

-Time out at the desert with the family and the dog on Friday Morning (Spooky was (as usual) fascinated and slightly disturbed by the unusual salty taste of sand and the way her paws would sink everytime she tried to run)

me under a narcissistic spell that magically drew me to my reflection on the wheel cover .. *snigger* (Ishani..you think M would think i was being pretentious too ?)

aww…. family pic ;)

thought this was a good pic of dad and sis

me taking the idea of ‘hitting the road’ a little too literally perhaps ;P

-Dubai Jazz Festival( now this was really cool… the gypsy jazz was my favoooorite, but have no idea why-o-why a bad poprock brit band was asked to close a jazz festival ?? )

-Remember Shakti Concert ( awfully cold but simply amazing .. its sooo great to see such talented ppl performing together on the stage. Dragged mom and dad to the concert and they luuuurved it – im glad. Although, i was a little dissapointed at the fact that zakir hussain and john mclaughlin decided to play a really short version of my favorite track ‘lotus feet’ – but oh well — the experience was worth it! :)

so ladies and gentlemen… that was my weekend
now i need to somehow drag myself through the week to the next ‘hopefully’ happening weekend .. arrrgh ;)
