Thrilled That it is Thursday and November!

Yes, I am so thrilled that it is Thursday finally, not that weekends matter much to me anymore.  But, Thursday is pizza night, movie night and also just a wonderful day.  It is also the night I don’t turn on the alarm clock for the next day.  It is also the first Thursday in November.  I love Novembers and I love Thursdays!  Here is some stuff you can do:

  • You can download Smashing Magazine’s November wallpapers.
  • If you own an S60 device you can download this new demo version of mobile gReader from Mojos Studio.  It is a bit heavy but still cool nevertheless.
  • If you enjoy reading FMyLife but think they are sometimes a bit too uncensored for your liking, check out MyLifeIsMuslim.
  • Have you ever thought about Speed Racer’s (ethnicity) race?  Do we perceive the intended race of Anime characters or our own?
  • If you like the Sartorialist then you will enjoy LookBook.
  • Still not sure what to do with Google Wave?  Gina Trapani’s new book might help.
  • Geniuses are made, not born.
  • “Most people’s lives are a direct reflection of the expectations of their peer group.” Tony Robbins.
  • “We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are”. Anais Nin

And finally I will leave you with this week’s feel good song.  Till next Thursday when the world is so nice.

An Angle On Cairo

RJay went to Cairo Tower had fun and took some pretty interesting pictures.  I on the other hand,  steal her pictures and make desktop wallpaper.

The quote says:  All that a city will ever allow you is an angle on it — an oblique, indirect sample of what it contains, or what passes through it; a point of view.

“Do not let trifles disturb your tranquility of mind. The little pin-pricks of daily life when dwelt upon and magnified, may do great damage, but if ignored or dismissed from thought, will disappear from inanition.”

Smashing has some smashing wallpapers for November

Smashing Magazine published their November desktop wallpaper set a couple of days ago.

They are all awesome!

My only tiff is that they don’t have a wide screen version.

You can download the right resolution for your screen, with or without the calendar.
