December 27 2008

December 27 2008
12:00 pm
In front of class 91C on the floor wishing I could sleep right then
and there.
I left my iPod at home so I wrote the following on my mobile, here it
is :

Am I hapy?
I have no clue
All I know is that I'm so blue
I feel like crying
I feel like dying
I feel like splitting in two
Maybe I'll go smoke the brazilllian coffee blend
I don't think it'll change anything
I'm not on the mend
I'm on the corner bend
I don't smoke I just pretend
Yes, that's a fake cigar in my hand
I made of in art class when the teacher left
'cause someone put red ink on her chair
I won't tell who, I swear
So it gave me time to make this fine Cuban
With pencil shavings rolled in construction paper in the perfect shade
of brown
Then I sat here on the edge of town
Oh for God's sake wipe off that frown
I haven't done anything wrong
So quit looking like a clown
I'm fullfiling a dark desire
To speak French and smoke like there is no tomorrow
Not care about the world
Forget my sorrows
So it all comes down to this
I want to not care
Maybe then I'll acheive bliss?
Then will it not hurt anymore?
I have no clue
But I'm sure Jean Peirre* would know.


*jean peirre is just a French name I used instead of saying I'm sure
the french would know.

The decision

So much time has passed
And I can surpress the need no longer
The need to dream and wish
To let my mind wander
And Bring the fairy tale to life
My fairy tale
For every person has their own
It is freedom to roam the world
And conjure the most delicious of images
To not so much create as to see what is always there
Waiting to be seen and felt
I have wasted my last year in confining myself to reality
To the words of dissapointment that linger in the air I breathe
But now I know, reality was made by those who chose not to imagine
Not to beleive they had infinite possibilities
And that the The All-Mighty Himself can and will give them what they
want
All they needed to do was beleive
Beleive that there is goodness and purity in the world
That honesty and love exist
And that life is what we make it
But they refused
Even though in their heart where no one except The One could see, they
knew it to be true
They rejected the thought and set out to make the world a boring and
lifeless place
Working hard to rob it from its color and beauty
Putting all effort to silence the laughter
The music of love and kindness
But I shall not succumb
I have been reminded by the fairies
The ones who add magic to all things
The twinkle in a persons smiling eyes
The mischivous bubble of joy on the lips of a child
The fairies, the product of a beautiful imagination are as real as the
imagination itself
The minute we allow ourselves to give up dreaming and wanting the wish
to come true
Is the minute we lose all hope of ever surviving in the world
So that is what I am doing once more
I'm throwing myself at the mercy of my vivid imagination
I'm giving my mind free reign in the world of possibilities
And I advise you all to do the same

"CRASH!!!"

"CRASH!!!"
I have hit rock bottom- and before anyone says the only way is up- I'm
blue and sick n tired of being me this moment, being nice, watching
out for people's feelings I'm sick n tired of being sick and tired
I just feel winded and beaten up emotionally
I have a lab midterm in 11 hours and I am studying off my iPod cuz I
don't have a PC and someone unplugged my printer and now it's going to
take days for it to reboot, we had only one working computer in the
house left and now that one's gone bust.
Honestly at the moment I hate technology because it made a so
dependent on it we can't function without it no more!!!
Like this iPod I'm writing from, it's my lifeline, cuz if I didn't
have it I wouldve screamed until the paint peeled off the walls. It's
my venting device.
A few years back I had started writing officially and me and my laptop
were glued to each other, then it HAD to get milk spilled in it's
keyboard, and it's power supply HAD to break, and it stayed unused for
six months and it's like I lost a vital organ, now I'm working on
fixing it, 700 riyals worth repairs. I thought if I didn't have a
laptop or a PC for a while dad would notice and get me a new one, but
it didn't work, I didn't want to buy a new one by myself cuz A-it's
too expensive B-the laptop I want is top of the line with 4 GB ram
300GB hard disk 2.5ghz and it's either All fuscia or All screaming
yellow!!!( it costs 8500 riyals) it's a Hypersonic
Besides I found out that it's best to get expensive gadgets as gifts,
they give them more value and meaning plus they live longer.

I'm still in a crappy mood,
I want to watch greys anatomy and sleep without HAVING to wake up.

I wish I didn't grow up and be this person, I don like her, she's not
funny and fuzzy and confident.

I blame one person for part of my misery, she hurts me with her jokes
about me, she keeps going on and on about how I'm not good enough how
I should be better how I don't know how to dress or that I have no
taste,
On and on
repeatedly sayings words that she may see as constructive critisism
but I see as mean jealous ignorant and hurtful.
At this moment of time I truly hate her, everyone tells me to ignore
her and that she's that way with everyone but I can't anymore, then
she wonders why I don't visit and call a lot, all she knows how to do
is 3etab. And she is such a sucker for the boys in my family, she sees
them as perfect creations whereas we - the girls- are the screwups. I
can't stand her anymore.

So I've decided,
I'm going to be me again,
The girl who falls asleep on the couch and wears comfy cute clothes
and does her hair however it decides to be that day, gone is the me
that has been here for the past year, adiós.
Though on the morals side I'll hold on to the good things I've aquired
like respecting my parents and doing great in school.
Other that that I will not allow people to feed off my emotions and
feelings anymore.

Signed,
A pretty blue girl.

Reporting for duty, sir!

Reporting for duty, sir!
Yeah right!! :p
Sitting in the nutrition lab, wearing a mask because there's toxic
sulfuric gas in the gas chamber on the heater I ask myself : why on
earth am I studying biochemistry??
Then I remember 'I'm going to save the world' and that question is
eliminated!
But I have come to a desicion Never will I ever teach at this
university!! I'd feather die literally, not for any reason besides the
fact that this place is stuffed with toxic energy and negative vibes
if you're in the classes, but if u r like some who love this sordid
place and hang out after hours ordering take out from mcdonalds or
pizza hut, you should seriously think of going to a shrink or just get
your head examined!!
I don't mean to be offensive but honeslty this place isnt like school
where the mood is cheery and you're young and careless, it's the real
deal apparently and it doesn't give out that vibe, it's against
everything I stand for, the optimists who're reading this will
probably say : why don't u do something about it then instead of being
a whine? Well my answer is I don't have the energy nor the heart to
work Alll that much for a hopeless cause and have my efforts
squandered on people who won't apprecciate it. That's why I wanted to
go abroad, there I know I'll find competetion but also a place to fit
in and find myself loving what I'm doing and learning, here it's a
chore, and the minute anything becomes a chore it loses any kind of
lure to me.
The sulfuric acid gas is like a slippery shady evil mastermind slowly
slithering his way through my nostrils and sinking his fangs into my
throat whilst continuing his course to my lungs, the moment he hits my
lungs I start a series of coughs that'd put a new smoker to shame.
Then I step back and let another member of my group hold the rounded
bottom flask which is on the heater and sit on the bench and write this.

Salty snacks and any form if telivision (tv or movies I mean)
December 14 2008 10:30 pm

Though I have warned my parents of the negativity and addictive pull
television has on me, it still remains in our living room, they say I
should have more self restraint, but Hello! I know I'm weak against
the silver screen, especially when it's comedy, romantic comedy , a
hospital drama or my favorite teen show Teen Buzz : a show about teens
who work in a magazine?! Music to my ears!! plus it reminds me of how
much I want to be them!!!!! Aaaargh why did I Have to grow up?
wouldn't it have been awesome if I worked in a same place like that?
Being a grown up sucks in the worst way!!!!!
Ma Sha Allah I am a really good writer.

Contemplating

I realized today that some people need a good bitch slap in order to
wake up and back off, subtlety doesn't work anymore!! People need a
train to run them over in order to realize they've made a mistake!!
And even then they don't apologize!!!
Sigh, I hate a few people, less than 5 that is, and my dad ain't one
of 'em !

Venting is theraputic!

Breathing is hard
I can't think
I'm on the brink
I don't know if I can sink
Any lower
My heartbeat is getting slower
Is my life over?
Or is it the lack of something great?
I think my heart is full of hate and something sinister that makes is
ache
I thought I had got over the past but apparently that isn't true
Because recalling the memories still sears right through
I'm not sad anymore my tears are dried up
I'm simply pissed off
Wait pissed off is too mild, I'm freakin livid
My posture is rigid
I am not timid
I'm going to say what I f***ing want and act the way I please ((since
I know how to say what I mean without being mean))
And if anyone has a problem with me
They can simply screw themselves in the worst way
I am who I am in whatever situation I'm put on
I'm not a liar nor a hypocrite
I'll either give my all or not give at all
I don't half-ass
If I blew up in someones face, they did something to deserve it.
Whether consiously or not I don't give a crap.
So watch your mouth about me
I'm not a chew toy
Nor am I a stabbing post
So quit backstabbing me I'm not a hobby
Besides, I got Allah on my side
He'll protect me from the scum of the earth who have nothing better to
do except bitch and moan about me.

Yay! Now that I said all that
I feel free
And can breathe easily
My heart no longer hurts
I'm like starbursts
Sweet and happy
Al7amdulila

Oh and I confronted my problem and it apologized so I have forgiven
and forgotten already.

Peace out
Have spagheti :p

Day of 3arafah 1429 H

Day of 3arafah,
It feels weird I think I'm supposed to get up and do something but I
can't I'm feeling lazy today! Waking up was an accomplishment, cuz if
i wasn't in desperate need for the "little girl's room" i would've
continued my deep sleep.

Today is forgiveness day, and tomorrow is eid aladha.
Apparently this Eid is the big one, but why is it that people here
don't celebrate it like Eid alfitr? Pisses me off!

I can't beleive school is back on next week! That totally sucks! I
have two midterms that I honestly don't feel like studying at the
moment.

Ooooooh sleep attack,

Peace out.

Breathing.

It's amazing how one word one gesture could change your whole day,
flip it 180 degrees from you being elated to deflated and stomped on.
From utter helplessness to strength beyond measure.
I honestly want to kick the
person who said "sticks and stones can break my bones but words can't
hurt me" because words hurt worse than a blunt rusted knife to the
heart.
Words slice me up they break my heart and ruin my concentration.
But some people are here to make me happy, they're words lift me up to
the highest height. I am grateful to them but first to the Most High
that created them for me.
I love you people.
And I miss u 2.
May Allah never seperate us.
Peace out.
P.S. I do feel awesome, thank you.


Sent from my iPod

My heart...

My heart...
It feels weird...
Something between pain and loss
I feel it being sqeezed slowly agonizingly
Every moment lengthening stretching, the hurt lingering, making me
feel every drop it gave.
I don't understand this pain, is it pain? Or is it the fear of
uncertainty? Of jumping off a skyscraper blindfolded without a
parachute but with hope that someone would be at the bottom with a
trampoline or a huge jumping castle that would catch me. That was all
I had, hope.
Maybe it isn't true, maybe it isn't that bad? I won't know until it
happens, until I'm truly airborne and helpless, until that moment I
hit the fabric of my lifebouy and am no longer lost in the sea of
darkness.
I know Allah is with me and that truly is enough. I'm not just saying
that. And I know He loves me and won't hurt me, but life is a test and
true happiness isn't here in this life, it's later in heaven, where
free falling into nothingness wouldn't even cross my mind
But I'm not there yet, I'm here in this world where certainty is a
luxury that not everyone has.
So here I am, freefalling into the unknown with the only certainty I
would ever need, Allah.
It'll take a while until my heart won't stop hurting, because even if
Allah is with me, I must go through this life , live and ace its tests.
Sigh

The Song(s) I'm humming and singing to these days

They are all Pink's -go figure!- but the woman sure knows how to sing! ( Masha Allah)
here's the first one:
Who Knew by Pink
You took my hand
You showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh huh
That's right
I took your words
And I believed
In everything
You said to me
Yeah huh
That's right
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong
I know better cause you said forever and ever
who knew
Remember when we were such fools
And so convinced and just too cool
Oh no no no
I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you a friend
I'd give anything
When someone said count your blessings now
'Fore they're long gone
I guess I just didn't know how
I was all wrong
They knew better
Still you said forever
And ever
Who knew
Yeah yeah
I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again
Until we
Until we meet again
And I won't forget you my friend
What happened
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
'Cause they're all wrong
That last kiss
I'll cherish
Until we meet again
And time makes
It harder
I wish I could remember
But I keep
Your memory
You visit me in my sleep
My darling
Who knew
My darling
My darling
Who knew
My darling
I miss you
My darling
Who knew
Who knew
disclaimer:don't read to much into this, i just love the song!

Searching

Gone to find myself…
Don’t know when I’m coming back!

Sigh
Oh here’s a clue my self left me: I hate the unknown, Trust me, it’s not as thrilling as it seems!
Which, now as I think about it is true
I find it hard to make up my mind on certain things these days
I already know that I want to open “ The Reviverettes and Revivers” Bookstore
I am sure I want to write my novel and wrap it up
But I know I don’t want to jump into the unknown

It’s tough being
Just being
And deciding
Being the boss of your own life is tough
Yes it’s WAY better than being a slave
But then who’d you blame for a bad choice?
Yourself? It sounds simpler that it really is.

Sigh
I got to go and keep searching
Wish me luck

Books, Life and me

Today was a great day since it involved books! Glorious wonderful books, I'm not even close to be done with book searching, but for today it was enough.

I bought Muhajababes, I remembered someone –who I found out I really disliked after just a few encounters- told me about it. It intrigued me because I want to know what it was about. Though after I got all the 5 book-filled heavy bags to the apartment, I lost interest, mainly because I didn't feel like going into a book that was like the girls of Riyadh, one that would make me angry or trash-talk my people. After watching Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day on Paper view with my parents I was off to my bedroom and the books where piled on the floor and Muhajababes caught my eye. I held in my hands for a few moments flipping it over my mind going over what it would contain and the fact that it originally cost 29.99 dollars and I got it for 5.99 dollars from this great shop called (Dymlocks) which was having a cool sale – made me think of my own bookstore-slash-library which I intend to open in July 2010, then decided to give it a go, put in mind that it was almost 3 am and I wanted to wake up for Fajr, so I opened it of and randomly flipped through it, reading the titles flashing on the top of the pages, when I reached to the end I saw Epilogue, and decided to read that, going against my rule which was : "never read the ending of a book first" but tonight, or today was an exception, and I absolutely LOVED it! It was AWESOME!

Giggle!

First I read the last paragraph of the epilogue and it was fantastic, I am not joking or being exaggerative it was really insightful, made me see the other point of view. She was basically talking about AK (her abbreviation for Amr Khaled) and Moez Masoud (who she just plainly calls Moez) well she goes on about Moez here's her exact words : (add them here) and it made me grin so wide I wanted to crack up, because at where I am in life now made what she wrote extremely comical, I feel the same way about what she wrote, maybe it'll wear off someday, but now what she said makes perfect sense. Are we trying as Muslims, leaders or just the people to make Islam cool? So that people would like it better? Accept it and stop considering it as the religion that creates terrorists? Which it totally isn't but that's not my point. My point is, are we bending the rules, Photoshop-ing the image to be closer to the world's comprehension? Yes, Islam is the religion of peace and is simple and is clear, but why is it that we need to decorate it, candy flavor it so that it's easier to swallow? It is already EASY TO SWALLOW! It doesn't need a spoonful of sugar to help it go down. It doesn't need artificial sweeteners or anything like that!

I understand that AK and Moez want the world to be a better place in their own way, Moez with his American accent and Abercrombie and Fitch shirts and smart mouthed comments that always involve long words that need dictionaries or thesauruses to understand, and he does use "dogma" A LOT! I realized that after she said it. It's not a bad thing though; we all have words we say all the time! oh well back to what I was rambling about, I thought about her comments, tossed them around in my head and stood in front of a mirror inside my mind, seeing if they related to me in any way, and they did, which isn't a surprise since I did have Moez Masoud as a role model for me too, but then it wore off as I grew up and realized I was a different person.

That was written while I was in Aussie 16/8/2008 5:44 am to be exact!

To continue, I believe that role models aren't people we want to become, they are people we put as our standard for goodness and rightness, Moez Masoud is really my role model because I want to be able to do what he does, not come on TV, no I want to be able to say what I think and feel in a way that'll be understood and spread the message of Allah to reach everyone's hearts, I want to become calm, reassured and answer back without whiplashing my words by talking with the voice of reason.

I am reaching there faster – in my opinion- than many of my peers basically because I believe in learning from mistakes, never tripping on the same step twice, I am growing, and soon I'll be as good as or even better than Moez but why am I comparing myself to him when I am a totally different person? So I believe I'll be the best me there is.

Back to Allegra's book, it was maybe the only book that ever opened my eyes to see how we, the youth of the Muslim and Arab world are perceived. She didn't get to Saudi Arabia, but I'm pretty sure the picture is the same or at least a bit similar.

I haven't finished the book yet, though I'm more than halfway across is, I have to get interested again, that's me with books that aren't novels!

May Allah's mercy and love be upon All of you.

With all my love

how science screwed up!

How science screwed up!

Forget for a moment all the stuff they taught us in school and hear me out to the end.
Well don't forget all of it, bear with me, because I'm going to need some of the basic rules they told us.
Ok here goes nothing.
The first law they teach us about hot and cold, is that heat rises and coolness sinks ( goes down basically) yet, get on a plane and fly, the weather gets colder, I know there is a logical explanation to this, but I don't have time for it. Secondly, they teach us that there are no barriers in the sky, or else planes would smash into said barriers, however, go to south Africa in the summer, and you'd find it winter-y, and you'd simply freeze your fingers off! There is and explanation to that too, but who cares?! Why teach us a rule when reality tells you otherwise?!
I live in Jeddah, where in the summer; at least, people could literally die from humidity and heat. How is that possible?! Isn't heat supposed to rise and coldness sink?! Isn't it the concept that made freezers possible?! Why isn't Jeddah cold and wonderful? I know, there's and answer that starts with: the sun, but no matter, science and laws and physics screwed up. And that's all I've got to say.
Good day!

I'M BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK! al7amdulila

back on jeddah's soil, sent a wave of peace that washed over me.
There's something about the best city in the world.
it's comforting, calm (in a crazy way since there's nothing calm about jeddah or itz ppl! ), so many other beautiful adjectives, and most importantly HOME!
it's the place where i would - after touring the world- settle in.
i love Jeddah ( oh speaking of which, last night at the airport, i saw this AWESOME t-shirt, it was yellow and had (I Jeddah) in arabic, and i WANT IT!, could've asked the guy that was wearing it, but guessed that someone i know would know where i could get one!.
Australia was AWESOME, 21 days there and i am truly happy.
besides the fact that is 16.50 hours away, we had to change the plane 3 times, it was TOTALLY worth it!
the weather there was AMAZING too, a bit too cold for my liking but great never the less, at night it dropped to 17 or 15 though add the wind chil factor and the fact that i live in jeddah i was freezing my fingers off!
a week into the trip i still was freezing! i wore 6 shirts, a dress and a jacket on top of each other when we went to sydney cuz it is in the south which is even colder from surfers paradise,Gold coast where we stayed the first 9 days.
the only thing i regret not doing is bungy jumping.
i really wish i had.al7amdulila.i had a GREAT time
What was interesting is that even though it was really cold for me, it didn't stop the guys of the great Oz from surfing shirtless and walking around barefoot. :wink:
i felt retarded for wearing all the layers of the world, but i really was cold, comfort comes first in my book.
i talked in arabic so much this trip, which was weird for me, but still interesting, cuz simply , i didn't want the rest of the world listening on to my convos wth my sibilings and parents, plus it was funny trying to guess what the people around us thougt we were saying and how we'd sound to their ears.
plus i love the sound of my voice!
hehe, seriously, i talked myself out this trip, i loved it!
plus, on the plane from Dubai to here the cabin crew were spanish and i got to practise my favorite language :D

.... sigh, i'm tired,i'll finish this later
p.s IT IS GREAT TO BE BACK!

What it is..

The truth is..
I love my parents.
I love my mom,
I love my dad and nothing can change that ever.
their love is like the flowing river, ongoing and giving.
I beleive that today more than i ever did, i matured i guess.
Our parents are human,
though we do see them as superheroes that doesn't change the fact that they are not.
they may make mistakes, they may hurt us, but never on purpose, never.
why is it ok for us as their sons and daughters to make mistakes and make them forgive us, but it's not ok for them to make them too and we refuse to acknowledge their apoligies?
I love my parents
because they after Allah swt are the reason i am here in the world,
if my mom was another mom, my dad another dad, i wouldn't be me, i'd be somebody else.
they give us everything they have just for a smile and a nice word from us.
they love us to death and worry about us until we're old and grey.
we'll always be their kids, always be their reponsibilty no matter what age we become.
but as kids we are naturally selfish, we think that if we don't get that bag of chips or that fancy car or those beautiful pair of boots the world will end and our parents have failed to prove their love and they no longer care.
but that is not true, they do care, and to everything in the world there is a reason.
they have their reasons that we don't need to know about.
yes they may not have lived in the exact same situations w live in, but they were kids one day, and they did have contradictive feelings, they know what we're going through even if the events didn't exactly match, they did have peer pressure, they did have parents who didn't let them do things, they had friends who could, they had bullies, they had the same darn issues we have, just with a different mask.
we keep pushing our parents' buttons until they burst and explode, then we go and whine about how our parents are always angry, always say no and aren't cool like whatshisface's parents
but whatshisface's parents also have rules, they're simply DIFFERENT some things we may be allowed to do, he isn't and the things he's allowed to do we aren't!
it is completely INSANE to compare ourselves with other people's situations, bcause we aren't created alike!!
we are all DIFFERENT with different hopes different dreams and goals.
it's like comparing grapes with zuccini one's a fruit and the other is a vegetable, no one in his/her right mind can say, grapes are better than zuccini's, they're DIFFERENT.
Allah created each and every one of us with their own path, yes the destination is either Heaven or Hell, but still the path to their is UNIQUE FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US.
i have my own demons and they are my own, no one can tell me they have them too, they have their own, no two people in the world are alike, not even twins, not the same feelings, not the same characteristics, nothing! so why do we tire ourselves and the world by trying to make everyone the same when we are so obviously not?!
sigh, there are rules for everything, but they are there for a reason.
for example, the sun comes up from the east, that is a rule, and when it no longer does, the world ends. simply that.
never drive intoxicated, that is a rule( for a moment forget that drinking alcohol and doing drugs is HARAM and understand the metaphor) and when that rule is broken people die, innocent people die.
etc. etc.!
rules aren't meant to be broken, they are to be lived by.
there are exceptions to every rule, but those exceptions aren't to be used on a daily basis!
break a rule, consequences will occur, whether they are inside the confines of one's home, at work or in the street, rules protect us.
they protect us from ourselves and the world.
they aren't to restrain us or contain us, they're to refine us, align us and remind us that there is more to life.
Salute,
Salam,
May Allah's blessings be upon All of you.

calm after the storm

so i did blow up.
it was extremely releiving!
i screamed my head off and had a headache the rest of the day
but i just couldn't take it
i didn't want to be run over and say i'm okay
the tears didn't stop till later
my heart calmed down after
and now when i look back i become so full of laughter
because now my heart doesn't hurt and my head isn't hot
i'm calm after the storm
i'm so glad i had fought

Wednesday, July 2, 2008

breathe in breathe out

in.desperate.need.of.ANGER.management
i fear i may blow up, off to pray, maybe that'll calm me

Taking it out on the keyboard!

Freedom's doors are closing, the light is getting fainter
I am angry but I can't do anything except cry and whimper
Running towards the doors; I am trying to go through
But the space that was wide and welcoming
Is now hard to keep open
I can't pass, my heart is broken
I know that I shouldn't cry or scream in frustration
That won't lead to anything except devastation
I am angry I am annoyed
Why must he do this?
Didn't he see we were over-joyed?
Or maybe that is why he decided to rip
My dreams into shreds
My freedom to bits
Why is he coming back?
I don't want to see him or sit
In front f him and pretend I'm ok
When in reality I want to scream profanities and run away
He used to give me financial security
But now it's just financial
Security went out the window years ago
I am going to work my hardest
And not waste a moment
Until I have my own money and rely on myself
I don't want him anymore
These are the last tears I shed because of him
My life will be bright no matter how much he tries to make it dim
I will not overflow
I will resist the anger that is on the brim
I won't be grim
I will grin
And kill him with my indifference
Rip his heart out with my joy
And then when I'm free
From life with him
I'll laugh with all my heart
And then my real life will start

Responsibility

I don't not like resposibility, i'm just afraid of it.
i don't like letting people down, so i don't offer my services when they're needed or wanted.
i don't like being told what to do, so i refrain from being in situations where that is required to get the job done, i'm a great boss, but a somewhat lousy employee if i get pressured and have no space to be creative and roam free.
i like working at my mom's school, because she tells me her expectations then she gives me room to breathe and do my job, she doesn't breathe down my back or berate me about my work.
and now, i'm working at the summer club there i love it even more, there is more room for creativity and innovation, plus, the kids are AWESOME mashAllah.
today, i'm going to be teaching the little kids about diversity and how we all are special!
Wish me luck!
peace out!

Anger!!!! .. not anymore though!

Marriage rule for women to their husbands : If you want me to be home on time, provide the means!!
I hate the husbands that sit on their asses and expect their wives to be home on time when she doesn't have a car or driver to do so, then berate her about being late!
If you want me to be home on time dummy, either get off the couch and come get me, or get a car and a driver to do the job for you.
It makes me mad when i see my friends who are married and look for someone to drive them home to their dumb husbands, when said husband is sitting infront of the tv, she is pissed because he pissed her off, so she ends up pissing us all off!!
Lets say also, that us-the friends- are having a good time, our husbands are out of the country and we can stay up as long as we want, even turn it into a sleep-over party, why do we have to get out of our way ((yes we are her friends, but still, we have lives too!)) to drive the poor thing home?! i mean, where the hell is her husband?! sitting at home preparing a fight most probably!
When I get married, i'm not my parent's resposibility anymore, I'm my husband's. which means, my mom doesn't have to send me her driver, nor does my dad have to pay for stuff i want. that's where the guy i married comes in.
gtg 2 my grams house, continue later :D
peace out!

Just a thought

I think I've talked about basically everything, well not everything everything... but the stuff that runs through my head.

now I'm getting deeper.


Today my topic is "Marriage"

Marriage is a partnership, not a hierarchy , so there are no ranks, there are equals, albeit different, but equals!
So just like men say : I'm the man of the house, I say I'm the woman of the house.
Just because I'm a girl doesn't make me weaker, meeker or less important.
I have the equal right to decide the fate of the family of the household like any man.
ma 3indi kalam "ana si alsayid!!"
If you're a Saudi male you'd laugh at me, if you're a Saudi female you'd sigh and say i wish :p
Because well, we're not oppressed as much as pissed at the way the guys of our world treat us.

It's not the system, it's the community, the upbringing.

Al7amdulila the world is changing and the women's voice is growing stronger, no longer are we afraid of males and their cruelty, rudeness and bad-ass behaviour.
Allah created us as leaders to make leaders, so no one has the right to tell us what to do!
Nice deduction huh?!
Yeah ! I'm planning on giving lectures!

Suck it boys!

Never settle for crumbs ladies...
Don't marry anybody
Marry a somebody
Someone that will make a difference in this world!
Someone that will be your shoulder when the weight of the world is on you.
Don't settle for crumbs
They never filled any one's belly
Nor have they given any satisfaction, well except for birds :D
We ain't birds!!
We're people that have needs, wants and ambitions
Crumbs won't sustain us!
A nice word might make a difference but a life of being alone with the world on our shoulders won't be affected with a rose or a box of chocolates, though the efforts are appreciated.
As leaders and as females we need appreciation, we need to feel that our efforts count for something, even though it is our duty in life.
It's a privilege to be connected to us ;)
It's an honor to be our partners
We are as strong as they come
We won't ever give up
And to our last breath we'll stand strong with those who need support
No word from any one will break us
We're warriors, with experience and strength carved into are systems
We aren't to be taken lightly
So next time a man disrespects a woman, he'll have hell to pay.
No more quietness or fear from us.
Expect the worse.
Expect the best
We're here to stay and you're here to pay!
Peace out ladies
Peace be with you Gentlemen.

NO One can be my boss :D

The law of the land in my world is this:
I am a lion in the family of lions...not just a lioness...i lead, and if needed i could lead with others too...but i will not be told what to do!
pretty simple huh? vital though.
Something to do with being in charge of my life
I'm no fool to the world around me.
I stand up for the oppressed
and stare down the unjust
I won't allow distrust
basically .... no one can be my boss
whether on the street, at work, or at home
I won't bend over and be meek
I am not weak
God gave me a voice to speak



peace :D

The Sky Isn't the limit...it's the first stop!

Never Settle for the moon, when you can have all the stars
Wipe away your tears, be proud of your scars
You are who you are because of the pain you went through
Amazing you are because of your determination to live and be the best you can
So never be ashamed, you stayed when others ran
Life is yours for the taking and the making
So live it to the extreeme, it's obstacles are worth breaking
Write your story the way you want it
One day a kid will read it and say: "I wanna be just like you"
At the end of this race called life
You'll be at the finish line, the winner through and through
Don't be blueAllah is always with you
He sends us clues
He sends us love and mercy
We just have to stop holding onto the world and hold onto Him
With his endless love and infinite power we have everything
You're bright not dim
So keep on living
Never stop fighting for what is yours and what is right
Paint our dark world bright
With life in your hand and Allah in your heart
You'll never lose sight
A Smile
A Wink
The worst'll pass in a blink
This is just the start of your amazing journey to greatness
Peace
Love
And a laugh full of joy
I wish you the Best.

Currently My FAVORITE song

We Made It
By Busta Rhymes and Linkin Park

[Chester Bennington]
Together we made it We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall

[Busta Rhymes:]
As you can see it niggas i survived the worst but my life is glorious
But I know that I live to be hurdled and i'm so victorious
Take a look I'm a symbol of greatness now call Morpheus
As force accumalted the wind and but a believe I'm so notorious
Didn't know I've been buying my bread even though we rapping now (yes)
And now when you look on my trip and you a higher level tramping now
And Superseded everyone of my little struggles
And Failure has never ever been an option
A paper long like we was on and I'm about to take the hood shoppin, Get it!

[Chorus: Chester Bennington] (Busta Rhymes) *Mike Shinoda*
Together we made it (you see we did it niggas)
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (c'mon)
Forever we waited (haha!)
And they told us we were never going to get it but we took it on the road (through the riches)
on the road (through the ghetto)
on the roooooad (and the projects to this bangin instrumental)
on the road (ride with me) *yeah, yeah*
on the road (you come and get it) *yeah, yeah*
on the roooooooad *yeah, yeah, yeah, yo!*

[Mike Shinoda:]
When it all got started we was steadily just getting rejected
And it seemed like nothing we could do would ever get us respected
At best we were stressed, at the worst they probably said we're pathetic.
Had all the pieces to that puzzle just no way to connect it
And I was fighting through every ryhme tighting up every line
Never resting the question and I was out of my mind
And it finally came time to do it or let it die
So put the chips on the table and told 'em to let it ride sing it yeah!

[Chorus: Chester Bennington] (Busta Rhymes)
Together we made it (you see we did it niggas)
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (c'mon)
Forever we waited (haha!)
And they told us we were never going to get it but we took it on the road (through the riches)
on the road (through the ghetto)
on the roooooad (and the projects to this bangin instrumental)
on the road (ride with me)
on the road (you come and get it)
on the roooooooad

[Busta Rhymes:]
Look in case you misunderstanded exactly what I'm building
Shit that I could leave for my children (children) children (children)
Now I only wake up I smile to see how far I've come
Fighting for sales on a strip to get hustle from
From nights in jail on a bench using my muscles son
To count money like Dre, Jimmy and Russell Ones
But now I live when i dream, you see we finally did it
Let's make a toast to the hustle regardless how we get it Singing

[Chorus: Chester Bennington] (Busta Rhymes)
Together we made it (you see we did it niggas)
We made it even though we had our backs up against the wall (c'mon)
Forever we waited (haha!)
And they told us we were never going to get it but we took it on the road (through the riches)
on the road (through the ghetto)
on the roooooad (and the projects to this bangin instrumental)
on the road (ride with me)
on the road (you come and get it)
on the roooooooad



Linkin Park are THE BEST !
99% of their songs are Awesome, the rest i don't get.
the messages their music conveys is truly mind blowing!

Me

I sometimes wonder about myself
How my mind works and how my emotions function
it's pretty complicated
I think i'm a pretty confident strong person
but throw me into a new situation, it'll take me time to know how to deal with it.
I think my shyness is sometimes misinterpeted as arrogance or just awkwardness
and they aren't pretty :p
i wish i could say what i think without thinking, but other times i am thankful that i didn't say what whent through my mind! just because i would've embarrased myself to no end.
i wish i could've asked more than talked that way there would'nt be luls in the conversations i have with people.
take a deep breath honey, you ain't that bad, relax it's all good :D
i try to calm my mind down, stop over thinking things and assuming.
then i remember how impatient i am.
then i laugh at my mistakes!
laughing it off, makes it easier and harder at the same time.

lots of other things, but my overworked brain can't think.
must.go.to.sleep.
:p
peace out!

and laugh with the wind ( marra ma3 nafsi... hawa jeddah ili yedawib alwajh!!!!)
pretend you're in ireland
in a castle by the sea
blowing out dandilions
in a 'i wish' spree!
