Going on Lunch Inside Saudi Aramco

So It's 11:19 am and I am set to take my lunch which is a usual trip from my building to another via land travel (walking)

Some essentials before going out..


This is my building - 3137 in LIP and the facade


I will be walking through this street to reach my destination.

So I reached the intersection where everyone has to stop and follow the traffic rules. At this point, I am not an option but a priority. Hahahaha

And let me continue walking

Yes I need to take this stairs to go to the other side. But there another way though. I just like going this route.

This is the building where the cafeteria is.

And some beautiful flowers along the way 😊

That is the dining area and I am already on queue. 😜


The queue is a bit shorter today though 😬😬😀😀

There's KORIAN CHICKEN

This is the guy who serves us on a daily basis 👍👍 (pardon his blurred pic)

And yes - I ordered the KORIAN CHICKEN with some vegetable sauce and rice which cost me only SAR 12 or about Php 144.00, plus 8 riyals for the water and fresh orange juice. 😀



By 12:15 I will be heading back to 3137 coz lunch is already over. I enjoyed my meal for today and hope you enjoyed that quick tour inside the Dhahran Industrial Camp - Light Industrial Parkway 😊

Expectations: A part of Life, A Cycle.

A person I knew from a recent past quoted:

"Do not expect others to treat you the way you treat them"

It hit me; right on the face. It was true, it makes so much sense. I had to reflect and realized that I am seeing myself in that statement. 


We often hear people say these words, but does it matter? Is it bad to expect? Did we care at all? Answer to all is NO. It's doesn't matter to us that we expect. It's not bad to expect. And we don't care at all when people say this and we still expect. 

I do not see something wrong with that. We are humans. It's but natural for us to expect something in return when we exert effort, spent much of our time, used our resources. 

However, things gets worst when we let our thoughts and emotions control us. When these expectations becomes far more important than what it should be in the first place. But we still chooses to get hurt and be hurt. And then we move forward and learn. 


But this is a cycle. You'll go through the same stages "UNLESS YOU DO NOT CARE AT ALL!"
