Kiss

You may conquer with the sword,but you are conquered by a kiss.
-Daniel Heinsius (1580-1655)

The decision to kiss for the first time is the

most crucial in any love story.

It changes therelationship of two people

much more strongly

than even the final surrender;

because this kiss already has within it

that surrender.

-Emil Ludwig (1881-1948)-

There is the kiss of welcome and of parting,

the long, lingering, loving,present one;

the stolen, or the mutual one;

the kiss of love, of joy, and of sorrow;

the seal of promise and receipt of fulfillment.

-Thomas C. Haliburotn (1796-1865)-

How You Are In Love

How You Are In Love

You take a while to fall in love with someone. Trust takes time. You tend to take more than give in relationships. You tend to get very attached when you're with someone. You want to see your love all the time. You love your partner unconditionally and don't try to make them change. You stay in love for a long time, even if you aren't loved back. When you fall, you fall hard.

THE KEYS TO YOUR HEART

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free. In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored. You'd like to your lover to think you are optimistic and happy. You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance. Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with. Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred. In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily.

Here's some more photos of Egypt.

The first on is Dave, Me, Brad and Jen ( Aussie couple that was doing the same 8 days tour as Dave and I, so we spent quite a lot of time together, they are really nice people, it was cool to know get to know them.
Second photo- is the Alexandria Library-such a beautiful place, and such a shock when I first saw it, i was expecting something really old, and got his super modern buildings..it was amazing...

Third photo- Abu Simbel - Ramses and Nefertiti's temple - again a fantastic place, with a huge lake around, it doesnt matter how much i try and explain how huge and amazing this place was, u have to go there to fully understand, no photos will do it justice.

Fourth photo- Hatsepshut's temple, the first woman king in Egypt- ok she made up she was a man- its a very complicated and very amazing story... ( I first heard about Hatsepshut when i was about 14 and read a book about her, so actually going to Egypt and find out more was amazing for me... )

Speak to you all later peeps...

Monday blues....

Monday again.. i cant bloody believe it..

The weekend was really cool..

Friday night went out for a few too many vodka redbulls- I've got a love for punishment - this drink makes me feel sick, but for some reason, i keep drinking - against all common sense..

Saturday, shopping day.. bought some more shoes ( a girl can never have too many shoes- my boyfriend disagrees-of course ) .. 1- a really nice pair of boots,it was love at first sight, cost me £80, but i love them. 2- a pair of stilleto sandals (I'm so gonna die) to wear to a wedding next month in South Africa.. I love the sandals, but NO they are not confortable - y is it that I constantly get asked this, stilettos are never confortable, and never will be...
Anyway - after shopping went out for a few drinks with Deb and Del,it was a friends b'day and it was nice to see them all again.. after a few weeks withouth seeing each other. PASSIONFRUIT MARTINI is the way to go... really tasty cocktail - yum yum ..

Sunday- highlight of the weekend- came into work cos GREEN DAY were playing, these guys are wicked... arrived at work at 2pm and drunk all afternoon,(helped out a bit with the event, not that much to do really) , and Green Day came on stage at 7.10 pm, and played until 8.00... they were awesome.. when i get some photos I'll post them..

Anyways peeps... its monday again, another working day and I've got the feeling that its gonna be a long week...

See ya soon,
Isabel

Photos of Egypt

Hello again...

These are the first photos... first one is in Cairo, the day we arrive about 5 minutes from the hotel ( well, 5 minutes, if the driving in the country made some sense, but realistically its more like 15 minutes. Its scary crossing the road.. )
The second one is Karnak Temple in Luxor.. a ginormous statue of Ramses and his wife/daughter.. yeah the guy married 3 of his daugthers.. they were very forward these Pharaos.

Will post some more photos soon.. I'm actually at work at the moment, and shouldn't really be playing with the blog.

Bye for now...
