A Dream Come True

I'm too sleepy to read about it (Click here), and I'm not sure if it's what I think it is, but nevertheless, I like it. I have trouble getting up in the morning, and I'm always late for work.








Here are some things I wrote at different times during the past few days:


Why is my introversion perceived as being proud?

If I'm quiet or sitting alone It could mean that:
I have nothing to say, or,

I disagree but too polite to say it,

Shy,

Not interested,

Have something better to do,

Can't mingle,

Not my type.



Best thing about having a meal in a restaurant with someone who isn't talkative is when you happen to sit close to a table of old Kuwaiti women gossiping; so amusing.



I want to go back to my own shell; it's much safer than the outside world



Achievement

Since I'm usually the victim, and often naive, sometimes dumb and always slow, I got back at a policeman who offended me by calling me (emtan7a). Yes I yelled, swore and my body shook; thanks to PMS.




I am happy and stuck in my office the whole day, ONLY when my boss is on vacation. But when he's around, you don't find me. I can't stand him, I can't talk to him, and my stomach growls when I look at him.




Who watched Dr. Fawziya Duree last Sat.? It was hilarious and there will be a continuation next week so doesn't miss it. She interviewed the lawyer Khalid Abduljaleel.

He mentioned reasons for divorce in Kuwait. Reasons like: bad breath (a husband who never brushes his teeth), body odor (a husband who doesn't shower). His way of telling stories is funny and sarcastic, sak 3ala foziya bil kalam, he needs his own program.

Younger Guys

Younger guys;
they are sweet,
they are tender,
they make you feel younger

They are fun,
they are as cute as honey bun.
They make you quiver,
under the hot Summer sun

Younger guys
are good for your health;
You can run
You can play
You can even fool with clay

Younger guys
are understanding
and are not so demanding

Younger guys
respect you
and are a good tease

Older guys
Who needs them?
They are only good in squeaking farts

It Felt Different

It felt different
Her bedroom was locked
I knew I wouldn't find her
But I had to prove it to myself
I had to go and check
I used her bathroom
I prayed in her room
Some stuff were packed
Her wheel chair was standing in the middle of the room
I touched it, felt the rubber handles
A paper with large writing was hung on the cupboard with the number of prayers as a reminder
I looked at the color of the rug as I sat of the floor after my prayers, the wooden cupboard infront of me, and the flowery curtains to my right;
"She had good taste" I thought
She loved flowery patterns whether on her dress, curtain, or couch
It felt strange
Being in her place, amongst her belongings
With her smell in the air
Without her being there



"A beatiful face without a name for so long.
A beatiful smile to hide the pain.
Did you ever know you're my hero,
and everythin I would like to be?"

Therapeutic

We talked for an hour and a half. It was therapeutic. I didn't even have inspiration to write afterwards. It's because I was so relaxed that I needn't write anything. It was our first time alone together.
Her being sick, was a blessing.

Tragedy is what shapes a man.

Never expect a man out of mama's boy.

Flamingoliyan Quotes

A good teacher is one who applies and stands for what he/she teaches.

Love;
when illicit,
is not love


Why is it so hard for some people to say the "L" word?

A good friend told me that Jane Austin became famous and got recognized as a writer 200 years after her death; I am optimistic now.
(I so wish to become one while alive, I want to feel it's joy)


Thanks to 3baid's comment on this post, meeting a blogger really feels like meeting a friend.


If you like sugar intake, try to eat dark chocolate, preferably 85% Lindt , it's good for your health.

I start my day with turkish coffee, they say it's bad for your stomach. Now, I start my day with a little something to eat then turkish coffee.

I wonder how colleagues can chitchat first thing in the morning; I don't even have the power to smile. Thus, they think I am arrogant.

I am not arrogant, I just think I am always right even when I have doubts.




I have no time to edit now, good night

A big hug and a slimy wet kiss to all my readers. but for the male ones, من وراء حجاب

Remember my neighbour whom I connected with for wireless internet? He now added a password. (I swear I haven't done anything illegal)

Wondering how I'm connected now? I am sitting on a chair with my legs raised on the window to place my laptop on. Laptop is very close to the window glass, and I am connected to another neighbour. Easy, but I think I'm getting some bruises.

My batts are running off... G'bye!


I still haven't gotten an answer for my question on my previous post! Doesn't anyone know about the story?

Crush

نتقابل بالخفاء ويرونا خلسة
يحدقون ويتهامسون
بماذا يا ترى يفكرون
هذا عازب وهذه عزباء
فلابد من وجود سبب لتلاقيهما
هو لا يفكر بشيء سوى صداقة بريئة
وهي لا تفكر بشيء سوى وجه مألوف
علاقتهما بريئة
ولكن من حولهما يبحث عن سهام جريئة
هما يعاندان ويثبتان طهارتهما
بينما قلبهما
grows fonder
يوما بعد يوم


***
نار اللهيب أشقى من نار الحب
ليت صعود الدرج سهل كنزوله


***
أخيرا .. أخيرا جاء اليوم الذي تغيرت فيه نظرتي اليك
يومها كنت مذهولة بهول الصعقة
أما الآن
وبعدما صعقت صعقة أشد
اشتد قلبي وأبى أن يقول اسمك


***
تمنيت أن يشبهني بسلمى حايك
بأنجلينا جولي
بفتاة الحي
بأي واحدة ... فقط أردت أن يشبهني

" أنت لا تشبهين أحد
unique أنا
" أنت هادئة ومريحة

لم تسعني الدنيا
وعلمت بأن تشبيهي بنفسي
هو أحلى تشبيه

Loving Teddybear

I burn with jealousy when you mention her name
I wish it was me
but maybe it's for the best
Who knows what would happen if it was for us alone
I know I cannot handle you
but can you handle me?
I still feel the stir I felt when we climbed down the stairs that day
It was one of the best moments in my life
Solitude with my one and only
Unintended intentions
Innocent acts that aren't so innocent
Teddy bear, youth, fun, humour,
You are all the best things
Everything is perfect in you
I don't deserve you

What Jughead and I Have in Common

We have so much in common





and again at The Avenues
How to know it's a women's toilet part3!

How to know it's a women's toilet (Part 2)

A great new shop called Bois and Chiffon is open at The Avenues. Lovely accessories for your home.




Two Pigeons on top of The Avenues lift



A kiss on the wall in a fitting room. Wonder what she was thinking. ya3ni khalisat el amakin?



These two pictures are from Mubarak Hospital. They looked like banana trees. The garden was green and well cared after. I wish they cared this much about their patients.



and last but not least, the bitten slippers. I found them close to a prayer hall.



Today I saw Ragheb Allameh at The Avenues. My heart leaped.

Gap Kuwait




Gap is finally open in The Avenues. It's size is disappointing and I got more disappointed when I didn't find my size for the lovely crochet flip flops I found. The sales person said when I asked for my size: "That's all what we have in the WOMEN'S section" with a fake smile.
Did she have to say women's? Do I have to get THAT look each time I ask for my size?
Jeans on the shelves were dusty too. I had to close my eyes to save my lenses.

Read Zahra's review

I saw Pirates of the Caribbean Part3. I and my friends laughed and kicked so hard while the rest of the audience were dead quiet. We weren't sure if we were the silly ones, or if the audience was too heavy blooded (damhom thigeel). I just googled heavy blooded to know if this adjective existed in English just like in Arabic and this is what I got LOL an old post of mine.

Aren't I posting too much lately? I'm not sure why, but I'm guessing my writer's block curse is gone. el 7imdella, mashalla, Allahu akbar.

Please Them Now

Dear Post,

Today my parents are out. My sister is sitting in her locked room quietly reading a book. I did some laundry. I had some clothes that needed my touch but were left for long untouched. I've noticed that I and my sister do more stuff when my parents are out. We love home more. Maybe because we're free to do anything without anyone watching or dictating us. So in conclusion, we willingly do chores.

After my friend's father passed away, her siblings got the same effect. They were doing things their father wanted them to do in which they didn't when he was alive. These things could mean anything from simple house chores, visiting grandparents and family, or simply doing some grocery.

So my point is, why don't we all think about this, why not start thinking of pleasing our parents when they are here? or better yet, when they are alive?

A One Hour Diary


It's hard to keep my eyelids open. I slept all day last night. They are good in treating insomnia. Subhan Allah, it's strange how you see similarities between people of the same nationality; same voice, same way of speech. Now it just feels I'm in Mitwaly Sharawi's lecture.

Extroverts who speak fast and who aren't aware if you're listening or not seem to outnumber introverts. My head feels heavy, help me. I need my caffeine intake. Is there a kind of caffeine that helps you listen well and not fall asleep? Even if you have slept 12 hours last night? God, this is depressing. What would happen if I just left class?

So many times I went to check my eye sight and turned out I'm Ok. Boredom makes it hard to keep my eyes open. I am writing this infront of my instructor, and I'm pretty sure he thinks I'm writing notes. It's a waste of time to give a lecture when no one's listening.

My God, my colleague actually fell asleep! I can't blame him, I really can't. If it weren't for this diary I'm writing I would've been snoring. I feel so guilty towards my lecturer. He's so indulged that he's unaware we're falling asleep.

He's bald. Thank God I am a woman and I have hair. How do bald men wash their head? Do they use shampoo or soap? Do they use a conditioner? I know it's silly to ask about conditioner, but how come their head shines? I can see the reflection of neon lights on his head.

He must have said "alright? clear?" (tamam, wathi7?) a million times while no one responded. Can't he get it?


I am not a nervous person who rocks her foot, but now I am doing so, maybe to keep myself awake? To keep my blood circulation moving?

Somehow my turkish coffee seems to be decaffeinated; the drug isn't working.

I discovered a treatment for insomnia, my management!


**************


I wrote this during my orientation program. I got a headache afterwards and slept last night from 5pm till today 8am!
15 straight hours. I think I should consider finding another new job :p

Spontaneity Killed Flam

Today I saw a very famous blogger and I was just about to wave at him and then I realized that he doesn't know me. This thing has been happening to me recently. I recognize bloggers and go straight and introduce myself. But after seeing the shock and horror in their eyes I TRIED to stop doing so. I am spontaneous and I do it without thinking, and the excitement over comes me. Now, each time I recognize a blogger, I call my friend to restrain me and brings me back to my senses.

To my luck, she was with me today.



Have you been through the same? What did you do?

Or

Had anyone surprised you? If yes, how did you feel? Those whom I met, don't answer please :P

Objection your honor

It's not just the guy; she's too young. We are in the 21st century and people are still marrying in their early twenties. What does she know about the world. Why is she in a hurry? Marriage isn't a white dress and a fancy husband. I just don't want her to end up separated just like her friend who got married just because her fiance didn't approve of long engagement period. Hell, long engagement is better than a short marriage! Wake up! I wish I had a saying, I wish all goes well.

So where do you think I should get my hair done? Mustache waxed? Eyebrows threaded? Blackheads removed? (Yucky huh?)

Isn't it funny that in weddings you find not only the bride looking her best? But also the other women?

Isn't it funny that some legs only get sugared from a wedding party to another?

Isn't it?

Tit'nsi?

Today's top achievement:
I went to Burger Boutique with my friend who had lunch and I ONLY ORDERED Espresso, without even tasting anything she had.

Will power to loose weight is the only way to loose weight!

Shoot me

I just wrote the longest, deepest, most personal post I've ever written and it all got deleted. Darn! It's been long since I last got inspired to write and it's all gone. I'll never come up with anything like it again.

I should get back to pen and paper again,maku 3alaihom
