I never knew much about pugs until Mai started talking non-stop about how adorable they are.. and how she really was hoping to get a pug one day.. and she did..
She called him Patou & spoiled him in ways all pets would be jealous from..

Unfortunately, Patou died around a week ago from a heat stroke.. I'm sorry for your loss Mai.. *hugz*
[Final whisper: Samsoomah.. everything is going to be alright.. *tight hugz*]

Yes.. I have been helicoptering yesterday for the first time ever! Above Abu Dhabi, the islands and awwwl the way to Dubai and back! =D It was a fabulous experience.. I was like a photo-sniper with my 3 cameras *fish-eye lens was the best*.. ended up taking more than 700 shots (some turned out to be quite the masterpieces) & everything was like a huuuge model plan.. with tiny houses, tiny buildings, tiny cars & dolphinsss *yaaah dolphins in the sea* as we were flying above.. =D I'll leave you with a little preview from my exciting trip:

Captain Marc showing the trip's route on the map.. a typical French guy with the French-est English accent..lol very adorable indeed! hehe

Inside the helicopter..

Flying over the Emirates Palace..

The new Marina Mall houses.. look really cool..

*waving to the AD buildings*

*flying kisses to AD* Flying over the LouLou island..

A bit of natural landscape as we're heading to Dubai..

The Palm Island from above..

The World Islands still in their early phase.. except for one part..

*waving to Dubaiiii*

*Fish-eyeing Jumairah*.. My favorite part of Dubai.. <3

If there aren't any traffic jams.. then it ain't Dubai.. =P

The untouched part of Dubai..

"Captain Marc.. lets head home!".. "Oui.. back to Aboo Dabeeee!"..

Landing safely in Abu Dhabi..

You gotta admit that despite what you were doing this *once-in-a-lifetime* double weekend.. (my case, mostly studying) You must have had that moment half way through the weekend of ultimate joy, that there is still more weekend time till you start work/study on Sunday! I felt that on Thursday and was like "WhOa.. 2 more nights till I have to drag myself in the morning to work!" *wiiide grin*
I still cannot imagine the feeling of shifting the weekends.. maybe it's because of what i have mentioned earlier (the joy of a double weekend!).. but maybe in the coming weeks, we will realize how weird it may be.. & eventually get used to it.. just like getting used to every other previous change.. Anyway, it was a smart move to begin the new weekends with a double one! ;)

Aaaand guess what else have I been doing this weekend..?! Watching TWO unaired episodes of the yet-to-be-released FREEJ cartoons!! *Mwahahahaahaaha*.. my VIP previewers included MissArmani, MedGirl & Saj.. whom all shared with me the joy of watching episodes from the very first 100% local cartoons by my famous friend Mohamed Harib (Lammtara).. *Thank yoooou so much!*I am absolutely sure that everyone who will watch it will love it.. Not only for the surprisingly excellent quality and great detail in everything.. but the funny scripts, unique lines and one-of-a-kind characters will capture the hearts of many! I still cannot believe it was only a few years when we first saw from Mohamed his creative sketches and mini flash projects.. now he is creating history with the 1st 100% Emaraty cartoons.. *All the best Mohamed!*
Watch out for FREEJ in Sama Dubai TV, starting 1st of Ramadan after the Futoor.. =)

If you are wondering why Abu Dhabi is suddenly brighter today, that's because SAMSOOMAH is finally back home today!! *el7amdellah 3al salaamaa oo nawarty elblaaaad* =D hehehe

That's all for now, its pampering time for the rest of the weekend for me.. =D
[Final whisper: Dan: Hope the Galler experience was as WOW as I kept telling you.. next time, its your treat.. ;)]
