Dear TEMPO magazine
SPACE
First of all I’d like to thank the effort paid to create such a wonderful
youthful magazine. I’ve enjoyed reading the November issue of it and
am always looking forward to read the next issue of the magazine
which I sometimes can’t easily find. I’d like to have copy and would
you please advise how to have one.
Abdullah Mohammad, Abu Dhabi Court
Hi TEMPO,
I have a suggestion for TEMPO to start a friendship forum or a
community forum so that people all over UAE can join and meet.
Sad Romeo
Ed: Sad Romeo, we’ll surely think about it (and please cheer up).
Ed: Thanks Abdullah, be sure to check malls and coffee shops for
Tempo issues (or join our email list and we’ll dispatch it to you).
Good day and a warm hello Tempo,
My name is Elsa El Osta and I love your Blueprint page and would love
to be a Blueprint model. Please do let me know how I can become the
chosen one.
Cheers, Elsa
Elsa, Elle will be in touch with you. Cheers, Ed.

food for thought for all you parents (and
those to-be) as you head into 2011
In celebration of all the babies who have come into
our world this year, here’s a reminder of how precious a
child is....a thoughtful read:
A teacher from a primary school asks her students to
write a essay about what they would like God to do
for them... At the end of the day while marking the
essays, she read one that made her very emotional. Her
husband, who had just walked in saw her crying and
asked her: “ What happened?”
She answered - “Read this. It’s one of my student’s
essays”
“Oh God, tonight I ask you something very special:
Make me into a television. I want to take its place. Live
like the TV in my house. Have my own special place,
And have my family around ME. To be taken seriously
when I talk.... I want to be the center of attention and
TWITTER & FACEBOOK QUOTES
be heard without interruptions or questions. I want to
receive the same special care that the TV receives when
it is not working. Have the company of my dad when
he arrives home from work, even when he is tired. And I
want my mom to want me ! when she is sad and upset,
instead of ignoring me... And... I want my brothers
to fight to be with me... I want to feel that family just
leaves everything aside, every now and then, just to
spend some time with me. And last but not least make
it that I can make them all happy and entertain them...
Lord I don’t ask you for much... I just want to live like
every TV.”
At that moment the husband said: “My God, poor kid.
What horrible parents!”
She looked up at him and said: “That essay is our son’s.”
