How do you get into the Christmas spirit here
By nightwalker77 •
Since Christmas is fast approaching, for those that celebrate it, how do you bring the Christmas spirit here to Doha being so far away from friends and family?
What sort of celebrations do you do here?
Am looking to curb some of the homesickness being so far away during the holidays and bring a little Christmas spirit to my home away from home.
Get a Christmas tree, sing Christmas songs, cook and invite friends, share love and joy, give gifts. You can actually do this every day, not just on Christmas.
you just said so: for being naughty
...listen to the sound of silence....
no Christmas gifts for me this year....I'm on the naughty list!
Santa was talkin of giving me a what I've been giving women all through the year....am wondering why would he want to spank me.
im attracted with this " charge yourself with happiness and joy"
bullfrog or zombie would be fine for me guys, thanks
...listen to the sound of silence....
carol who cares about such minor issues when you are making over 100,000 QR per month.
It is really funny people still check the profile... I dont even know where Maldova is....
And sorry... I am already married...
Not everything matches.
WAKE UP you are a MALE and she is a FEMALE too much difference.
:D
Da man, I'm not a nightmare... *sigh*... I can be her sunshine! And she's a Moldavian, I'm a Moldavian (Romanian side)everything matches! :)
Carol is always having Ezdan nightmares she doesnt want to add one more to that.
Missing her home and family.
No problem its raining so get on a dhow and go visit your family and home quick.
Carol2008, will you marry me? Pleeeeaaaaseee!
Ti rog frumos...ci naiba, ca si eu is moldovian! :)
Good attempt Gica but guess I will be resigning after all... *sigh*
6 figures per month. in qatari ryals. and cant wait to go home... even if it is to make a lot less money than here!!! I am literally counting down the days.
money DEFINATELLY is not everything!
Yes man, I don't want to have a jobless Christmas :)
Hehehe...I save your a**...
Oh thanks for clarifying Gica, I was about to resign tomorrow morning thinking about my low salary..
"Everything in this book may be wrong." Illusions: The Adventures of The Reluctant Messiah by Richard Bach
Sandeep, 6 figure per year...
6 figure salary????
In which currency???
Get a ticket back home... more and more all I can think about is the day I can FINALLY book my ticket out of here for good!!!!
I wish I didnt feel such a big sense of responsability at work and then I would just leave now.
No matter how much money they are paying... (and it is a good 6 figures salary) it is still not enough to put up with this place.
Thats on my list to Santa Claus... for me to go home this coming year.
the tree dsnt HAVE to be inside your residence, i dont think you can possibly offend any1 be placing your tree outside
provoke.. but dont let the spirit go...
There was Dunestock last year - an Open air Music Festival held at the singing dunes of Qatar, features expatriate bands and musicians. Heard it was quite good.
Not sure about this year's programmes. Any other useful answers from others who've been here longer than I have?

All hail "Spiritathon"
He gave up.
already many are confused.. dont confuse more.. by the way who is the SHE.. and where is the nightwalker who started this thread...
cheers
AK
How about a "Spiritathon"..
We could all join in and make Merry.......
If she's willing that is..
And I said, I'm gonna get drunk, and that brings the spirit.
I thought you were old enough to know that we were not talking about carpentary initially, just following your line here..
Annyway I'm gonna get drunk on Christmas..
it says.. how do you bring the Christmas spirit here to Doha being so far away from friends and family...
cheers

You can use the Private Message system if you are not sure, anthoworx.

cheers

Painting and screwing are really two different things.
Now you are confusing screwing household stuff with painting
I am an artist, I draw, I paint... now my artworks does not come well because of the size of brush but because i know to use it.. all you need is a brush to paint.. not how big or small.. it fits every canvas..
do you need an detailed explanation ??
cheers
AK
I'll sing a christmas song. And then I screw somebody before I get drunk.
Now you are confusing different screwings antho. In one exact size is required, in one it doesn't matter. Which one is which, I leave you to figure out.
so what next.. lets get drunk on christmas eve.. what say..
cheers
AK
Let's leave it as you said, anthoworx.
yeah am bad in screwing when it comes to household products.. having a big or small screwdriver doesnt make you successful... right time, right use and at right place make you a successful screwdriver.. size does not matter... how you use it.. matters...
cheeers
AK
You need a bigger screwdriver then.
You mean you're bad in screwing. antho?
That isn't exactly the kind of screwing I had in mind.
guys good in carpentary.. welcome home on christmas eve.. got a wardrobe, kitchen sets, and some furnitures to be fixed.. all i know is it has to be screwed to fix and am bad at households.. so Boston / Sandeepkadian welcome home.. drinks on the house..
cheers
AK
It had been misunderstood for 2 thousand years, brit. Here is the truth, finally.
I'm shocked and stunned at the direction this thread has taken.
Christmas is about caring, sharing, giving and taking..... Hold on... That could be screwing ..
Sorry sandeep... Carry on..
Sure do..
Then we have something in common, Sandee.
I will be busy screwing someone else Boston :-)
Attend the midnight mass first, only then cigarette, women & wine.
Give me a day or so please.. i need to finish off the baked beans first...
I'm gonna get drunk and screw. That's something new. And it might be you.
I'm gonna get drunk.
I should remind myself too.
say something new.. we already know you are gonna get drunk..
khwaga / britexpat.. lonely will be till you enter the group..
cheers
AK
That's too high-tech for me. I've just upgraded to the two tins on a string model...
anthoworx: my friend, I'm not offended in the least. :o)
I just wanted to remind myself.
We got that the first time Boston.
I'm gonna get drunk.
this question to be asked to yourself standing in front of the mirror.. not neccessary you need a man to make a title.. women too does..
cheers
AK
P.S. No offends
Sounds great.. perhaps we can buy those red light hand held things and use semaphore to communicate through windows..
Alone and lonely for Christmas? It could be either a really good idea, or a horribly bad one!
Mushkilla!
Now I need a man to make my title? Dang.
how about group of lonely people.. this christmas.. does this sound.. duh..
cheers
AK
u need not resign.. title doesnt make the man perfect.. its the man who makes the title..
cheers
AK
I don't have one of those either. I guess we'll just have to be lonely together at Christmas. I'm starting a No Push-to-Talk Phone Support Group. Join us. We'll get jackets!
Brit let's stick to the alcohol, shall we.
Thankyou.. I will try ..
dont worry buddy if you dont have the similar unit... charge yourself with the mood and the aura around you will find the right people for you..
cheers
AK
But that means that the other person must have a similar unit.. If i can't Cheerping, then I will be lonely at Christmas :O(
Thank you. I hadn't heard the term. Of course, I've never owned a push-to-talk phone, so that could be part of it.
Clearly, I am unworthy of my title and will proffer my resignation forthwith. :o)
dont worry.. are you sure you are teacher ???
anyways here it goes...
A trademarked term in mobile communications used by Nextel and Boost Mobile for sending voice messages to a private number in push-to-talk or walkie-talkie mode.

u got a dictinory.. or u want me to explain..
cheers
AK
What is "cheerping"?
Unfortunately, I will be working that day. Maybe I should follow Boston's lead and get drunk and THEN come in to work... :o)
Great amounts of alcohol is a start. Also, put up a tree and some decorations INSIDE your residence..
I put some x-mas decoration in our house. and every morning i play the x-mas songs on my living room.While getting ready to go to work.
find a group.. cheering and cheerping... charge yourself with the positive energy of happiness and joy.. people will automatically attract..
cheers
AK
I'm gonna get drunk.
