I can’t believe these guys. It’s not even a month since they introduced the nano to the market. Aren’t they clever? No one could even dream of beating these guys. At least not anytime soon. Click HERE and you’ll see what I’m talking about.

I still love my nano though. I just need to get a cover for it soon before killing it 😉

Tomorrow is my b-day. My 30th one! This weekend was great. No one would know how great it was. Once again I was reminded that I am surrounded with so many great people. The real friends, and that was the greatest part.

I’m now off to talk to god. To thank him and ask him for what I’m wishing for in the coming year. That’s the hardest part; there are too many things to ask…

I did and I will always follow my instincts. It doesn’t matter what others say is right or wrong, it matters only what my own instincts tell me. The others don’t know what’s inside me, do they? I am the one and only who knows. This reminds me of the Travis song, Side. We all live under the same sky. We all will live, we all we die. There is no right, there is not wrong. The circle only has one side …

Thanks for listening to me by reading this blog. This is my month and best vibes just wished for all of you in whatever direction life may be taking you.

Always,

Shadan

I love this poem by Syliva Plath. I just love it. Enjoy…

Frog Autumn

Summer grows old, cold-blooded mother.
The insects are scant, skinny.
In these palustral homes we only
Croak and wither.

Mornings dissipate in somnolence.
The sun brightens tardily Among the pithless reeds.
Flies fail us.
he fen sickens.

Frost drops even the spider.
Clearly The genius of plenitude
Houses himself elsewhwere.
Our folk thin Lamentably.

Read it again and again and again and …

“These may be serious times but you will find it hard to be serious about goings on in your personal life and the world at large. It’s good that you have such a well developed sense of the ridiculous because it will help balance out the negative vibes coming from those who always seem to enjoy looking on the dark side of life.”

This bloody horoscope can be sometimes very true.

Jamie Oliver (a.k.a The Naked Chef) is my all time favorite chef. Not only he is British (!), he makes everything sound so simple and at the end, he comes up with the loveliest and of course the most delicious dish ever.

Today he is on the cover of the Globe and Mail: “Jamie Oliver forces British schools to ban junk food.” This is actually the government order to ban junk food within a year at schools and they have used the “Naked Chef” to lead their high-profile campaign. According to G&M, Canada also needs a Jamie Oliver-type to lead a crusade to ban junk food from the nation’s schools to reduce the growth of childhood obesity.

Autumn is my favorite season and it has just arrived! I love the fresh smell of the rain; I love the color of the sky; the color of the leaves. The autumn in Toronto is absolutely stunning. The color of the leaves is indeed a killer. The weather is so pleasant.

I still miss the autumn in Tehran though. Nothing can replace it. In fact, that was the only season I loved back home and I still miss it badly…

Enjoy the season… Much love to you all…

I still believe that the best cappuccino in the city is served by Balzac’s Coffee, located at the Toronto’s lovely Distillery District. The exciting news is that they are opening up their third location very close to my workplace, at the Liberty Village. Yes, they are planning to open their new location in the new Toy Factory Lofts condo development, located near King Street West and Strachan Avenue.

Give me a buzz if you are in the neighborhood; it would be a pleasure to meet you up for a fresh cup of coffee.

I’m back. The trip was just lovely. I just chilled with the loved ones and did absolutely nothing. Traveling is the most refreshing thing in the world. As Scott Peck says: “We are all in a rut, and there are two ways to get out of it. One is to travel and the other is to work in a mental institution.” He is absolutely right.

The exciting news is that my new iPod nano is sitting right beside me. Yes, I finally bought it. Maybe I’m nuts but it’s just so cool and sweet that I couldn’t afford not to have it. The one that I bought only two months ago, or even less than two months ago, is already sold!

It’s crazy busy at work. There are tons to catch up. I promise to write more when things get calmer. Thanks for STILL checking out my blog.

Much love and smiles…

I’m on vacation. My blog is resting as well. Things are great here. I’m just hanging out with family and friends and doing absolutely NOTHING… Needed it badly after all the hard work of past months. The sun is shining, the weather is sweet, I’m just chillin’ Cali style! 🙂

Agenda: shopping, caffeine, more shopping, afternoon napping, swimming, margarita drinking, etc.
