Colts

patandcolts.jpgIndianapolis Colts faced the New England Patriots in a battle of the undefeated yesterday. They met in Indianapolis for the long awaited showdown.

The Colts put on a great performance. The defense put a lot of pressure on the Patriots and ended the first half with a Colts lead, 13-7.

The Colts held on to the lead (20-10) up until the last 3 minutes of the game, when things completely turned around. The Patriots defense kicked it up, stopping the Colts’ offense. Then Brady brought it home by scoring 2 touchdowns that took them to win the game, 24-20.

Although heartbroken at the Colts’ lost, I am proud of the fact that they “brought it” to the game last night. They played with heart and while I expected them to get clobbered, they held their own for most of the game. I’m sure this is a lesson though, that they’ve got to hold on till the last whistle.

Although I royally hate Brady now, the Patriots and Colts have so far forced themselves to be the teams to watch this season. 8 more weeks till the playoffs.

PLAY BALL!

Home Sweet Home

I’ve been lazy since I got back from Dubai. Looks like I got bit by the tse tse bug again! Can’t get enough sleep.

The business trip was a success overall. But enough about work..

Stayed at the Emirates Towers and it was nice. The never ending supply of Toblerone they offer was a nice bonus! I got upgraded to the “Chopard Floor“, which is an all female floor made to ‘pamper’ women. I took some pics but too lazy to upload them now. Perhaps later.

Had dinner at Marina Walk Saturday night. The weather was gorgeous, view amazing, and atmosphere relaxing. Oh, and food was pretty good too. I also got to watch “The Kingdom”. I really enjoyed the movie.. thought it was very well done!

All in all, a great trip. Planning on a repeat by month’s end inshAllah.

So, anyone got a cure for this constant tired state I’m in these days?
