Life in Dubai

Sometimes I feel I slide backwards as much, if not more then I move forward. I end up asking myself why on earth did I ever come here? Have what I have achieved so far justified my giving up of what I had back home? The answers are hard to find now but I hope in time, it will all become clear. It's still a long slow road at work, I've gained weight, I'm not exercising (just discovered that Fitness First S'pore has been screwing with me), and now there's a slight concern that there may by high glucose/suger levels in my blood so its off to the clinic again tomorrow for another check as I had forgotten about the empty stomach rule before doing a urine/blood test and had some crisps before going to the clinic.
