Hmmm, I kinda did miss it!

Well. I am back to being the techy chica..

  • I am reading VBA books to refresh my mind.
  • Fixing my aunts printer and making her some high resolution picture files.
  • Adding additional RAM to my Laptop.
  • Fixing my bros MP3 player (Heck, I remembered, where the heck is my Ipod!!)
  • DLing software for my new cell phone (whaaat, this also counts!)
  • Searching for a new layout. (HELP!)

So, I am working with this really nice guy, who is a very Shiite. He's from Gatif, got a million bros and sisters...etc. But all in all, he's a great dude! Smart, well educated and a team player, I can't get over why ppl assume we don't get along.

I remembered when I was in my old Syrian mob department, I was supposed to check some people to work with us, and I got this CV for this young fellow who's a fresh grad. I showed my supervisor, he looked at the address, read "Gatif" out loud and said, "ma nbeeh!!" -we don't want him- I was like, that's not a reason! He laughed and left me speechless!

I might "hate" Syrians, Egypt, Cults, Clumsy people! But I would never base something like that on not choosing a guy for a job =\

Shit, I feel like I can't write well anymore!
I desperately need to be hitting the GYM!

New weekend, new life, new me..

So, I started becoming more and more careless.. And this is so opposite of me, I'd like to thank a new friend who made me look at life differently.. Life is so much better and easier this way :)

My grandpa is recovering in the hospital after his open heart op, and my aunt is back to the hospital for more chemo. Rabe arf3 3anhom o 3afeehom.

Time's Running Up


Wow, I'm almost 23 and I am OH SO BORED, I look at older people in my family and work and wonder how could they put up with life, it's boring. Or is it just me? I wonder.

So, I been trying out new habits, in which might not be right, but excuse my boredom, I need to be entertained :P Here are the major ones;
  • Started eating the food I hated, and stopped eating the food I liked.
  • Getting in touch with REALLY OLD friends!
  • Watching old Arabic cartoons on my DVD player (3adnan wa lina and robbin hood)
  • Reading the blogs I hated to read.
  • Plan a costume party!
  • Play more on my PSP. I need more games!
  • If I liked something, go for it right away! (Careful, this might result financial problems)
  • I'm looking for friends in Thailand, yeah, just for the sake of it!
  • Really listen when my sisters talk to me about school or co-op.
  • Facebook is for fun only. The bikini shots have to go down!
  • Imagin I'm flying off to Hong Kong & checking out hot spots and make reservations =D
  • Buy a car! Thank God for lease programs ;)
  • Cutting off TV time. And less internet hours!

Regarding blog world, I'm interviewing 3zayez as soon as I get the time and energy. Need some help from Ash to do some polls about the blogs for the bloggers group. And Taqwa to write the questions~!

Weekends Over Already!! 8(


So, I been watching a lot of One Tree Hill lately, I always thought that was a stupid high school kids kinda show, like Dawson's Creek, and that I hated.. Turns out, things are not as they seem. It is actually a good show. It tells you a lot about family, friends, love, and what does it cost you to go on pursuing dreams. I never thought this show would make me think about life. Analyze a lot. It's a nice show, and I am so wanting season three right now.

My favorite One Tree Hill quote at the moment:
"Maybe you're taking a step back as a basketball player, but you're taking 2 steps forward as a man" -Coach Whitey

Ps. I hate Windows Live! Looks too boxy to like!!
Pss. UMEE; I NEED MY ROOM KEYS!! WALA I HATE THIS NO PRIVACY WHAT SO EVER!!!!!

"They Haunt Her by a Whisper.. A Chill Comes Over Me.."


I grew up to respect all sorts of authority. God, the King, cops, Mom and Dad, grandparents, uncles and aunts, other parents, until a certain age; maids, school teachers, school consular, teachers assistants and the list goes on.

See, when I was little I never question authority, it was correct that they are always right! And I just have to do what they say, take whatever advises they offer, "assuming" they always wanted the best for me. I was a kid, naive, I trusted ANY sort of authority.

Now, as I completed over two years of working in the banking sector in Saudi Arabia. My path crossed a lot* of bad people, in authority places. And being all grown up and getting to know that not everyone will have the best intentions and can't do anything about it, really hurts!

Sometimes, I think, maybe I am what dad says, a spoiled child who can not cope with the pressure of work. And that's why I choose to stay, and not be called a quitter, or I did, for as long as I could, and believe me, two years of putting up with that 10 hrs a day is not an easy job.

Today, I came to what I think I might regret, but knowing that I usually don't regret the stuff I do, gives me strength to go forward. I am stepping up; I am gonna say something about it. And whatever happens later, I got nothing to loose!

May God give me more strength to do this ASAP.

Have a pleasant weekend everyone!

* I usually say millions, as a form of assertion (9ee'3at mobala'3ah), which I came to understand people don't really appreciate. Plus, I don't really know if they use that in the English language.

Is life treating you weird these days, do you feel left out when you see a lot of changes, and your friends are leaving.. Do you feel like you're too young to be living like this?? Or is it the other way around and you think you should be acting more mature!! Does everyone really know everyone and the world is small, or is it just that you look for connections to feel less like outsiders.. Why is everything reminding you of him? Why do you still see him everywhere, even hought it's been so long since it's over!!
I am in a place in my life where I look like I figured it all out, but really, I’m more confused than ever..

Fo0f finally meets the bloggers!!


So, this was really interesting, I postponed the meet for like 1 hr later, cuz of my mom -DUH- then, I had to change the time again, cuz mom changed hers -ANOTHER DUH-.
Note to self, I won't include myself in moms plans, even if she asks really nicely and try to get me feel guilty about not spending time with her!

Well, starting off, I have to say I'm bummed Noor and Balgees couldn't make it!! Ash too, but at least I had a one on one time with Ash before :D. Black Orchid and Bissa, too.. Hope all u guys gatherings were fun..

So, everyone who came today, it was my first time meet with!! And although there were the odd quite moments, but they were all cool and down to earth and oh, so nice and cute!! I actually told Farah that I didn't used to like her when I first started blogging, but she's just too nice, you can not not like her!! I wanted to prank the girls and after 3 seconds of me talking she confessed, I wanted to kick her in the balls, but sadly she didn't have any :Pp
Dibaz was really quite doing the cool act :Pp and you know what, that girl can pull off being a Brit so easy!! It turned me on so much, I actually asked her to talk in Arabic!!! Heh, and Taqo is such a shy chica, with a real calm voice that I can barely hear!! And guess what, she can pull off being Saudi!! -hey she even learned "meer" today!!-.. Doomy and Bella are just too cute!! They look like sisters!! Uber, well, I thought it would be awkward meeting you, since I never ever had any encounter with you, but she was reaaally a sweeetyyy, she came in such a short time, and she had a hot hair cut ;)

Summing up, I started the day with buying a heeled shoe, and ended it with buying a flat one -Doomy and Bella actually caught me there :$- so that gives you an idea that my day was really GOOD :D
Oh, yeah! And I saw Asala Nasry shopping for make up in Debenhams!! And guess what?? I AM SO FREGGIN' TALL NEXT TO HER!!! :D

Another note to self, check why BJ said she was coming?!

What is There to Have Fun "out" in Riyadh?


So, weekend, I had my reunion thingy today, mama had her own plans with her peeps. Dad was in bar, and my bros, well u know.. Surprisingly, my sisters had no where to go, and nothing to do!! I felt bad for them!! They really had nothing!!! What did they do, called STC and used ge6af(some kind of points STC gives out when using cell phones), more like abused ge6af, they called all the people they knew to chat!! Lol.

Oh yeah, I had a looot of fun at the reunion, I was amazed by what happened to my friends, I'm really happy for them! We agreed to do this more often =)

Life Goes On..


Once upon a time, there was a little girl. Living with her pink sweet looking family; mom, dad and sister and bro.. Her smile never left her, she loved to play, hey joy was when daddy gave her some time of his day. Daddy didn't do that a lot. After all he's all grown up, he was asthmatic, and she didn't want to hurt her daddy. He would play with others kids though, something she never understood. Now she grown, she still didn't get "Why wouldn't he play a lil with me."

As she got older, she saw him preach her, constantly telling her what's right and wrong.
Choosing her friends, her schooling, judging her hobbies, and her life!! He grew up to hate her, or so she felt, as he always thought the worst of her. Mommy was never there, she had her own place and own circle of life. She wouldn't care less of what happens inside her house, as long as it looked shiny and lunch was presented on time.

The little girl was no longer little, she got to learn a lot from life, although everyone stereotyped her as the spoiled one, everything she learnt was the hard way. She's all grown up now, should be all independent. But found herself in a place where she didn't feel she belonged, she always had a lot to accomplish in her mind, she always saw herself going places, she wanted a lot in life which she slowly but fiercely, realised she can't have.

Now, a young woman, she thinks, why bother dream, plan, or care, when my destiny is always under someone's hands. Whenever she wanted something, the irony of her reality hits her, telling her, although it is your life, but this is not your decision to make!

She still keeps walking, wipes her tears, and puts on her usual smile. Trying to go on.. Not really wanting to, but for the sake of her faith, for the love she has for her family, not knowing what she wants in life anymore, she still.. Goes on.
