5 years...

today it's been 5 years since i arrived to israel...how many things i've gone through, how many people (good and bad) i've met along the way, and what have i reached...it seems like yesterday, and at the same time it feels like forever.

diet....

for the first time in my life i'm dieting...boy it is hard! i'm hitting the gym at least 3 times a week and i should totally go back to yoga (but i have no money right now). the idea is to go from this:

to this (or the closest i can get to this...or even better...him!):

as i said, i never went on a diet, and i see that it is not easy at all. doctors recommend to eat snacks several times a day (fruit, yogurt, etc), my problem is that in the moment i open my mouth I can't stop, so it's easier to keep it shut... but i'm having headaches and becoming i'm extremely sensitive these days (well, sensitive is a mild way to put it...i'm going crazy)...there are some morning at work where u'd better don't try to talk me or I'll take a bite of ur arm!
well, i hope it all works out fine, i lost 3 kg in the last two weeks and i'd like to lose another 3...i think is ok...
i'll post pics if i look hot...and if i don't i'll just eat myself to death.

fucking valentine's day...

when did i become one of those valentine's day hater? this is the second time i'm single for this date in the last 8 years. last year i dealt with it quite fine, i just left my ex, recently moved out and in a new place...i understood that there was a reason for me to be alone at that time and was fine with it. now, a year has passed and i'm still single...wtf? i know i don't have a six pack, a huge cock and blue eyes, but i think i'm fine: i'm smart, brave, i love to spoil and get spoiled, i invest a lot on my relationship, i work hard and have ambition... how come i can't find anyone i can date for more than two dates? i'm one of those who thinks that when the moment u less expect it, he will appear...but i've been focusing in my life, work and friends lately...i haven't been looking (going to 8 dates in a year and a half does not count as looking for a BF)...and yet, here i am, alone for valentine's.
actually i don't even care about this date, i'm jew! the whole valentine's day buzz only started here couple of years ago and people don't care much...and yet, it just reminds me i'm alone.
this day sucks! let's move on to next week please.

was i dreaming?

woke up this morning and left my apartment on my way to work...while europe is under the snow, in tel aviv we are wearing t-shirts...i even bought a new coat i can wear cause it's been so hot outside. in any case, i live in a very central point of the city, lots of cars, noise and gay people...so i'm walking down sheinkin street (my street), and a duck walks out of a building. i stood there looking at the duck and thinking that maybe i'm not awake yet, but suddenly an old guy walking in front of me looked at the duck, then looked at me and asked "what's that?"..."a duck" i answered..."i know, but wtf is a duck doing here?", he said. i couldn't stop laughing about the surreal situation. actually it has not been my first encounter with an animal lately, two night ago i got home and i found a cat sitting on my sofa...am I becoming Dr Doolittle or something? (my brother decided the name of the cat is "Beto").
