Blond moment #6

Ok, So am working on my MacBook in excell, the language is set to Dutch. Am used to working in English settings... I just lost my file and have no idea where it went... I just pressed "verbergen" (hide) and it disappeared. What to do?

Lesson learnt: Don't work on your day off!

Big buildings in Abu Dhabi!

Abu Dhabi is booming with plenty of stunning developments and architectural highlights!

This is a huge big building just next door to my place. When I just arrived in Abu Dhabi in March 2010 they just started and year and a half later, they are nearly done! You feel tiny when you stand next to it.

Few blocks away five towers have been built, can't wait for it to open as it will have stunning views of Abu Dhabi islands.

And finally... They just started on the tallest building in Abu Dhabi, see below. Wonder how long that will take and if Ill still be in Abu Dhabi to go up to the top floor!

Blond moments 4&5

Plenty of blond phone moments to share

1. How to put your iPhone on silent? Took me four months to figure this out. Few days ago my phone stopped making sounds and I had no idea how this had happened.. Apparently there is a switch on the side of the phone to put it on silent, makes sense, was wondering what that button was for, pressed it couple of times, never thought of pushing it from one side to another.. Lesson learnt

2. How to insert a 0 in your text message with my good old fashioned Nokia? This one took me over 6 months, before that time I put in my text: lets meet at 2:59 or used the letter o.. Anyway, it's easy, just press the 0 button and it appears by magic!

That's it for now!
