I wish I was driving down this road, top down and listening to my tunes and clearing my head. It’s funny how this road depicts life, you keep on moving forward, not knowing what might cross your path and despite whatever it is that you may face you continue to move forward and survive. Once you look back it’s nothing but memory lane.

“I never understood ppl buying those balance bracelets. Was everyone just falling down all the time before? Wtf. scam written all over it”

“Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me … Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful… that’s what matters to me.”

(Steve Jobs, The Wall Street Journal, May 25, 1993)

The world has just lost its spark of talent, Steve Jobs has passed on after losing his battle to Pancreatic Cancer. The news of his passing saddened most of us, he has touched a lot of people by his visions and products. Nearly everyone all over the world has been exposed at one point or another to an Apple device may it be an iPod, iPad or an Apple computer. His devices revolutionized the technology industry. Apple lost a great leader and visionary.  May he rest in peace and have mercy on his soul.

10th Anniversary is the tenth installment to the Women’s Murder Club series by James Patterson. It tells the story of Detective Lindsey Boxer working her cases with 3 of her friends, Cindy, Yuki and Claire.  I have read all 9 books prior to this and I have been hooked on the series. It never disappoints to say the least. If you’re into mystery, thriller crime books then I would recommend you read the Women’s Murder Club series. The books are an easy read with short, straight  to the point chapters.

This is a useful illustration done by Liz Ramon-Prado explaining the different types of Dishdasha, Thobe, Kandura  (Men’s Traditional Costume) worn by each of the GCC countries and how they have their Qetra, Shmaq (Head piece ) worn. Arabian men’s fashion at its finest. A great guide for the dishdasha-challenged gals like me.

Welcome to the delicious divine and often bewildering world of Lebanese women , where primping is a 24-hour affair, partying a raison d’etre and designer bags reign supreme. For every person who ever wondered what makes these fabulous femmes tick, or how they too can become part of this elite clique, Miss Guided reveals all you need to know!

If you’re looking for a book that’s light, fun and has plenty of funny sarcasm then this book is right for you. It’s one of those books that you carry around to read on the beach, on the plane or in the waiting room. Annisa Raffeh (the author) also a blogger talks about all aspects of life as a Lebanese woman living in the glam lane. She tackles issues of everyday life such as pinning a man down, getting married, landing a job, “enhancing”  your physical appearance and dealing with crazy family members.  The book has 14 chapters each chapter is more captivating than the other. You don’t want to put this book down until you have read it all. It’s a book about women meant for women.

MissGuided can be found at Virgin Bookstores in Beirut, Cream boutique and on Amazon
