Islamic Noor ( GumuS)

Hello Everyone! Sorry its been a while been kind of busy lately!! Ofcourse If you live in jordan or any part of the middle east you may have already caught the "GUMUS" fever! The Turkish series "GUMUS" mdablaj in baab al 7aara style on MBC4.

At first you start watching out of curiosity and you make fun of the names like " 3abdeeen"and "ruqaya" and you are like hahah sho hal habal! then somehow you hear that everyone is watching it and you find it on tv all the time so you start watching it secretly and still make jokes about the ppl who watch it. Then you turn into an official mohanad and noor fan and u even start convincing ppl to watch it! saying things like "ino insi il accent il 2esa kteeer kteeer 7ilwe!!"

it's like Casandra & Bab il 7ara all over again!

My friends are in Turkey for a visit and were told that this was one of the lamest series in turkey and that these ppl are not very famous there! No wonder they have time to come to DUBAI and KUWAIT to meet their fans! No wonder muhannad has time to star in a video with a haabta singer.

Everyday in the newspaper there is a new story about a woman who got beat up by her husband after she asked him to be more like muhanad. Another was divorced for putting muhannads pic on her mobile as a screensaver! lol

aslan his name isnt mohannad! its sounds more like a sineye falling from 3al daraj
kivantatalug ting tash ting tash hahah :P

So yes i watch it.... and no i don't plan on watching it till season 7! Did u guys know it is actually still playing in turkey?! it has reached season 7!


MUHANNAD eventually dies and his son actually grows up to be HIM! hahahahhaha SHOCKER

And i think that noor chic will grow up to be noor and they start falling in love all over again!


So bagoora went to meet them and says that nooor had another wedding this time with hijjab and she had bagoora do all the cooking!! heheehhe


Ya rayt yi7ajboohum fi hal musalal !

I QUIT

After almost 2 years of working in a pharmaceutical and doing things like Diabetic Foot Brochures and seeing images of amputated feet, ulcers and all sorts of infections ALL OVER THE BODY. when i say all over i mean ALL OVER!!! Ewwwwwww

So... yesterday was the day i decided to take the step of leaving. And well today i finally RESIGNED. And i think its the best choice i ever made. I was simply staying for the wrong reasons and i can do so much better.

SO WORLD WATCH OUT :) DINO IS NOW JOBLESS :)

OKay Anyone have offers in D0ubai?

I prayed istikhara last night and i feel so relieved.

IM PHARMACEUTICAL FREE!

At least for a month till my month notice is over :)

BAgoora Goes to Burger KING

Another Day, Another Adventure. I have been wondering where bagoorti spends her time and i found out from (secret) sources that she has been standing outside burgerking with signs asking people to stop eating BURGERS!

i told her not to do that before after one of the people who worked there tried to turn her into WHOPPERS! :S

So.. after a long long talk and a few hugs and promises that i will never eat her even if we are stuck underground with nothing edible but her. I promised her not eat any of her relatives either ( except for the annoying ones). I am not really that into bagar eating, i am a chicken eater :)


So.. this pointless will end with a something meaningful. So let me think of a moral here.. hmmm... When you love someone and they are a big cow, you can still be the better person and not eat them when you can. You will rise and be the better person. :)

Sha7adeen Stories

Shahadeen, Sha7ateen, Beggars whatever name you choose to call them, they are everywhere. In some places more than others and with endless scenarios and acts. i will share a few stories :

Once i was standing in Jordan in "sweifyeh" where they seem to have DAWAM RASMI and well some guy comes up with a paper and he was not saying anything and gave me a sad look of "ana miskeen" and came up to the car window. I think the paper was some medical paper saying he is DEAF! Just as i was about to get my purse some car from behind him HONKED its HORN and GUESS WHAT THE DEAF GUY DID? bil 2orduni " NAGAZ" hmmmm ya3ni mush fahmeh how he HEARD THE ZAMOOR!!!

Again in Sweifieyeh in the car this time i stopped at one of the traffic lights. And the traffic light in jordan first thing you should do is roll up your window unless if you want someone to throw in some "S&B" chewing gum, or even sometimes stick their head in your car and yell things like " ALLAH yib3atLIK WA7ad 7ilo zayek! Allah yib3atlik wa7ad 3yooonoh ZURUG". So as i was about to roll up the window i notice one little boy crying and his box of chewing gum ( which he apparently dropped on the floor).

He was crying and picking up the gum. So i was like haram miskeen, he probably will get in trouble by the BIG BOSS who throws them in the street to start with and i 7sint 3alieh and gave him some money. NEXT DAY!!!! SAME BOY! CRYING! SAME PLACE! SAME BOX! it was FILM! and so many ppl fell for that! When i told my friend she too FELL for that FILM and felt so sorry for him and went and got him another box of chewing gum to SELL!!

i felt so stupid! i mean this boy deserves an award for his acting!

Oh so many stories i lost track. But well this one is funny. Last time i was in amman i was feeling that my IMAN needs a boost that i miss going to the masjid and that i want to feel the spirituality again.

So that day i was so emotional when i went to the masjid next to our house. The lecture was about tawba and how if GOD loves someone He makes it easy for them to get 7asanat. So after the khutbet il jum3a i was leaving and this lady came to me crying telling me her son has something wrong fi "thaanoh" (his ear) and needs an operation.

At that time i did not plan on buying anything so i had no money on me. So she kept crying and telling me about "thaan ibinha" and in my head i felt that i couldnt help her because maybe God doesnt love me and doesnt want me to get 7asanat which is why i dont have my wallet. So i started crying and crying! And praying for her and her son. Suddenly i look at her and she is not crying anymore, she has a weird confused look on her face and she said " khalas khalas and walked away." She realized her act was useless and went on to someone else.

looking back all i can say is ma ahbaaaaaaaaaalni!

Oh oh and once i had like 10 JDs and this kid kept following me trying to sell me " BLASTAR" so i was like ma3eeeesh fra6ah he goes " haaaaaaaateeee maaaasik"

really yantabiq 3alieh al qawl "shahaaat wa bishare6"

If you have any stories to share please do! :)

Cow Afro Adventure

For those of you who are new to this blog, you are probably asking the same question which is " WHAT'S UP WITH THE COW?" Your answer is in this old post that will clarify how my cow obsession started :)

The BAGOORA STORY

So, well to those who already know Bagoora and are waiting for her new adventures. She has become quite famous and has started avoiding her fans by wearing AFRO hair and sunglasses only every once in a while someone realizes who she is and yells out " BAGOORA"!

She is not liking the fame too much and says that she misses lying in the 7asheeshat without someone following her with their video cam.

You know some people are affected by fame and become snobby, but bagoora will never let her fame and fans change her. It's so funny how some people go through extreme life changes and still are the same and they don't let life change them. While others go from extremes without really going through any major life changes.

Il muhim sometimes people are forced to change to be able to survive in this world.

Keef 2alabt drama? okay so back to COW. she is not for sale. and she is does appreciate being called " EISH YA SHAWERMA"

Baby Dino & Baby Bagoora

Today is one of the days i am feeling nostalgic and looking back at the old days when life was much simpler. I remember the first time i saw the snow! And well i ran out to play with it made a very ugly snow man that looked more like jabal amman.


I would open my mouth and wait for some snow to come in my mouth.Come to think of it it did taste weird :S Or i would stand like in that scene from the movie "i know what you did last summer" when jennifer love hewit has her arms wide open and yells

"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR HUH" lol

I used to hang out with the neighbors kids ( till this day i wonder why i did hang out with them. They were pretty handy when it comes to finding old tires to use as snow boards! i remember getting on a 3ajal (tire) and sliding down a small hill next to our house. It was an interesting ride the required many pushes along the way down the 10inch hill! :P

Come to think of it those neighbors might have lived in the street :S because i remember no matter what time i go down they are there doing things like riding their " BUSOKLAYT" on ramps ( which were khashabat they found in the street). They even taught me how to make a SLING SHOT.

maybe i have shared too much about my past lol

so.. bagoora loved the snow too and borrowed a pair of my boots when we went out. Only by the time we came back home we could not feel our feet and had them stuck on the "Dafayeh"(heater).

Girl$ & BathrooM Talks (oh btw im BACK)

So... after a lot of thinking and hesitation and many messages from people! I really didn't know that many people liked reading my posts. That is why i am BACK!

If you find my blog offensive, and if you think this blog is pointless you can easily overlook it and not visit it.

Now about todays post.. cow noticed that girls usually go to the bathroom in groups.. unlike her cow friends they usually go anywhere and they don't need to take their friends along. So she decided to hide in one of the bathrooms to see what is the secret!

Conclusion is Girls go in groups to GOSSIP and talk about girly stuff like their current crush, boyfriend, or someone who is sitting with them on the table wondering why they took so long in there.

Some girls mostly in jordan choose to smoke in the bathrooms.

Others reapply layers and layers of makeup and spray tons of perfume.

Hope this post was enlighting to many males wondering what was the big secret.

NOW YOU KNOW


Many more cow adventures to come inshala! It's Good to be Back!

Last Post ( for a while)

Hello readers.

This will be my last post. And i just wanted to say thank you all for your comments and i am sorry that i wont be blogging anymore.

I will miss you all & Cow will miss you all too :)

Prices = NaaaaR

Global food prices have risen by 40% in the last nine months. That explains why the TWIX bar is now 3 dirhams rather than 1.5 :S

I feel all the prices are going up and the salaries are going down. I remember not so long ago when you had a 100 DHS u felt rich and u could get more than one thing! Now its like you go to buy a few groceries and the bill is more than 300 DHS!

Um il 3abd is complaining and after going to get some rice for her kids found that even the price for RICE has gone up! Her kids sell chewing gum in 2isharat 3abdoon now and they seem to be doing well !

conclusion is akhritna nish7at

Elevator Adventures

Our work is on the 12th floor. So almost everyday i have to go through some sort of elevator adventure. Usually after going around the parking for hours waiting for someone to leave so i can take their parking spot, i run to the elevator and wait there for a few minutes till the elevator yisharif! I start pressing on the button aggressively ( knowing that you only have to press it once) but still bafish khil2i!

Then finally the elevator door opens. Sometimes its full and i have to wait for the next RIDE! and sometimes its empty and each floor it stops to pick up more RUKAAB! Some people see that its full and insist on squeezing themselves in! LIKE HELLO BREATHING SPACE! Some people look at their feet others stare right at you and even when u give them the " stop staring look" they still continue on staring.

Some smell like curry others like fish. Mostly SWEAT! And i am already claustrophobic so i stand there and the trip to the 12th floor feels like the longest 3 minutes of my life.

Some come in with their headphones on and start singing along with the song! Usually they are Filipinos. I think every Filipino or filopiniyeh i have met insists on singing. While they clean they sing. While they walk they sing. Even in the bathroom!


Anyway. My cow has found a job in my building and she is now watering plants in the offices.

Message to the world. When the elevator is full. WAIT for the next one. When you are listening to your mp3 you don't have to sing along and make others suffer. When people faint when you are around it is not because you are gorgeous it is probably because you smell like rotten feet and dead rats!!

*takes breath after saying all that in one breath*

Dinos vs Bionic Namooseh

So picture this you are about to sleep and you have the covers over your head and then u hear... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz... mosquito attack! U cant sleep since it is determined not only to suck your blood out but to also sing in your ear!!

Yesterday i saw a namooseh on the wall. Upside down. Waiting for the right moment to have her dinner! So i thought i would "atghada beeha abl ma tit3asha beya" so well slowly i tip toe towards the jamooseh. I couldnt reach so i used a towel to kill it.

so.. after i thought it was dead. I look up at the wall and it is there. This time i made sure i hit it. AND I AM SURE I DID! But this namooseh bisab3it rwaaa7!

Again i find it in the same place.


*twilight zone music

*namoosa home has invited all her namoos friends for a 3azeemeh on Dino$ tonight

Annoying People

Sorry i have not had time to draw my own cartoons in each post so i might as well post the ones that have been published :) this was an article about the annoying people that just won't get the hint and stick to you and just wont LEAVE u ALONE!

They talk and talk.. in their very very irritating voice and tone.. Saying very pointles things that just piss you off some more.. and u start blocking everything they say when all u see is someone talking and you know they are saying something but they are totally on BLOCK... And even if you dont join in on the conversation.. and u only nod or say things like AH.. Aha.. hmmm hhhmm mmm... they CONTINUE.... going on an on... BLA BLA BLA

This type of person is born to annoy the world. Those people that are just simply so zinkheen your blood pressure goes up just at the mere THOUGHT of them. They don't intentionally annoy you but its them being THEMSELVES that GETS ON YOUR EVERY NERVE...

I will not go into who is annoying me... generally speaking there are people that you must see on almost a daily basis and they are just UNBEARABLE!

I just hope i am not that person to someone :S freaky thought!!

MAFIA Dino

This is my latest publication in AL ALAM newspaper. It reminded me of my Current MOOD!
i dunno when it started. But i feel i have changed into a very AGGRESSIVE person. I have noticed that my reactions to things have changed. For Ex.

The other day i was driving back home. I saw a car with 2 kids dancing and waving and making faces at me. ( they weren't exactly cute) Anyway... i didn't even smile back and totally ignored their silliness ! The old me would of started making faces and dancing along... It was the moment i realized i have changed.

I am EVIL.... Somebody arrest Me...

Wayn il Buffet?

I dunno if its just an arab thing but i think not. I think its human nature. It's only human nature to always go where you feel you are getting a good deal or where you are getting "value" for your money. So what does everyone all around the world do? EAT!!

When you hear the word "FREE" next to "FOOD" the only image that comes to my head is some sort of ATTACK or INVASION. No FOOD + Hunger = BREAKING DOWN WALLS! But this "Hujooom" is not only when you are hungry or poor.

For ex you go to a wedding, a very classy wedding. All those people from "yaaay" wa "tra la la la" class, wearing high heels and dresses by eli saab. You think those are the last in line for the buffet? Think AGAIN.

There is just something about buffets at weddings restaurants or anywhere. It's like some sort of race where you want to get the most out of it. You wish your stomache had the capacity of a tank so you can go for 2nd,3rd rounds. You start poking the person next to you and say" yala yala 3al DESSERT 2alb ma yikhlas." And even if you have no space left u force yourself to eat some more li2ano ya3ni BISIRISH!

After you are done stuffing your face and you leave your plate full of the weird food you decided to Tuskub in your overflowing plate. You sit there and you are hardly breathing and some unbotton the first zirr on their bantaloon and say " akhhhh akalt kteeer"

p.s.

Cow tries to stop people from having cow meat in their buffets by making her own rebellious strike.

Tajmeel Anyone?

So it's time to share another one of cow's adventures. After watching a lot of grey's anatomy with me bagoora was inspired to start her internship in a hospital. Well now she is in the " Cosmetic" section because there is a lot of 6alabeih in that department. Getting a nose job or "botox" injection has become more common than ordering a shawerma sandwich. it's like

3amo mumkin wa7ad shawerma jaaj wa wa7ad la7meh wa bil 6areeq ghuzni 2ibreh fi tumi bidi yseerli shala6eef! :P

Cow has been sharing stories with me and she says that she was so scared to go back! When i asked her why? she said that some patients have had so many surgeries they look CREEPY! Faces so stretched that they have one FIXED expression for everything. Lips so puffed like they have come out from a round with the "contender".

Conclusion is... we will all get old and wrinkly.. some will look younger than others even if they were the same age. But seeking operations and injections might fix this aging problem temporarily but on the long run it will back fire and u will be sitting there waiting for your botox injection that will not help because by now your face is mistaken for a BUTTOX! :) excuse my faransi ya3ni

First Newspaper Publication

Hello All :) this is the first cartoon of mine published in a newspaper :) to read the article go to www.alalam.ae . I don't write the articles i just draw the cartoons:)

Btw the newspaper comes out every Wednesday and is FOR FREE :)

So if u are in dubai.. pick one up and maybe u will find a cartoon by moi

yeay

Meen Famous??

ANIiii :)

For the first time my blog is mentioned in a magazine :) ARABAD magazine. I couldn't find it in the uae. But they sent me a copy :)

When i am a famous cartoonist i will 2a3zimkom all on MANSAF :)

BTW i also got my first freelance cartoonist job with ALALAM newspaper. SO if you are in the uae you better start BUYING IT :) Finally my work will be published somewhere.

It's a start! Btw i am currently teaching myself flash and am doing my first animated BAGARA cartoon! Can't wait to post it!! Yipeeee!

*dino skipping away

LOOOOOL

this guy's cartoons are amazing i didn't know he had animations!! He has inspired me to start my own animations! CHeck this "3alarasi" video out! hahahahahahahaha

Soon i will be posting one of my VIDEOS starring BAGARTI

TECHNOLOGY = OBESITY

Did you ever feel like you were "JAAAHLEH"? (ignorant) I remember the first time i had to use those automatic water taps that work by sensors. I remember thinking " HOW DOES THIS WORK? WISHO hatha?" i felt like a had just come from the farthest desert when the lady in front of me looked at me and laughed and said " hayk" as she very elegantly swayed her hand under the water faucet and OMG WATER CAME OUT!

ALLAHU AKBAR! *dino stands mouth wide open staring at the magic water
* dinos starts doing tricks by seeing how good the sensors are
*people stare at dino when she uses her foot in the sink
* dinos is taken away from the bathroom with bodyguards after being reported as a "weirdo"

Anyway.. This whole automatic thing has become more and more common. Everything is automatic even the FLUSH! i mean come on are people that LAZY? Even the soap comes out as soon as you place your hand at the sensor!

My friend heard a man who most probably was Jordanian in the mall and he was also as amused as i was with this technology. he was like " YA ZALAMEH HAATH IL SAboon BINZAL HOWN MARGHI KHAAALIS"

3anyway i sense people are only becoming more lazy depending on technology in everything in life. They move less and eat more. Which brings me to my new Jowhara theory which is that
TECHNOLOGY WILL ONLY LEAD TO BAGRANEH! :)

HEATH LEDGER vs GAZA

You know i was thinking maybe the death of HEATH LEDGER was a conspiracy! They wanted to distract the world from what is happening in GAZA! Hmm how would we let the people forget about GAZA? yeah well lets focus o HEATH LEDGER!

Don't get me wrong i think he was a good actor and his death was sad because DEATH itself is sad especially when it's someone young who dies. But what makes his life worth more than than the lives of thousands of Palestinians and Iraqis dying everyday?

Millions of groups on facebook mourning the death of Heath ledger! Discussing whether he died on an overdose or whether he committed suicide! Ya3ni he is dead lets all please GET OVER IT!

Imagine if there was a group for every palestinian who died in palestine! bisaker facebook min the overload of groups!

*sigh

Igliboo wijihkin

It's one of those days you wake up not on the wrong side of the bed but rather on the wrong side of the Shibshib! :S I dunno liesh but everything seems to be getting on my nerves! The slightest whisper sounds like a chipmunks scream! Anything said to me today is followed by this reaction :

*dino carries shoe and say " EISH EISH GASDIK EISH EISH??"

opps another jordanian slip up

It's like i don't only have one chip on my shoulder but Kyaaas CHIPS KTEER! And the only comfort to my soul today is the thoughts that go through my head every time i am annoyed by someone. * dinos imagines she is a giant stepping on everyone that annoys her

I'm warning you.... telling me things like " you look tired are you sick?" or " " did you gain weight" might lead to severe damages.

bagoora akalat katleh today :P

hahahah JUST PASS ME THE CHOCOLATA ALREADY!!!

Dream$

I love sleeping. Going to bed and getting under the covers on a cold day! I somehow feel protected. Maybe it was because when we were kids mama used to make us all cuddle in bed and we would play the game of " IJA IL WOLF" ! How do we play that game ?

Basically we all would be mlabteen in bed me my sis and brother and mammy. Then suddenly she would say " itkhabooooo ija il WOLF?" And ofcourse being the kids we were we would fa3fit and scream and giggle and we would all hide under the covers! Then we would try to be quiet 3ashan ma yisma3na the wolf hehe

i bet you a blanket wont save me from a wolf but somehow ever since in my head i feel that if i'm under the covers no one can hurt me! No wolf or bo3bo3 or ghost! hehe (bo3bo3 bloggger i don't mean you here lol)

Anyway again i seem to have moved away from my topic! DREAMS! i get the weirdest most unexpected dreams! Usually it would relate to something i saw or something i spoke about.
Recently i had been watching "HEROES" and you can imagine the dreams i have been getting!
Most include me moving objects with my eyes or reading peoples thoughts :S

But my problem is i get so affected by my dreams and sometimes i wake up and i cant stand some people. Or i sit their and analyze those weird dreams and wonder what they meant.

Usually people say one thing when i tell them my weird dreams. They look at me with a blank face and say " sho mit3ashyeh mbari7?" or " mthagleh shiklik 2abl ma tnaami"

heheh :P i can go on forever about my dreams. I wonder is it my thoughts that i dream about or are some thoughts a result of my dreams?

3ajali Banshar

Its raining.. It's windy.. It's the perfect setting for *drums roll

DINO MASAYEB

As i left work i was told 2moro is a public holiday because 3amo bush is visiting the uae
( 7atssafar?) * dino sings "Amreeka sheeka beeka song" to make things better :P

3anyway.. maybe it was the happiness of sleeping the next morning.. maybe it was the annoying song i had playing on the radio.. " Seebni athooB fe a7thaanak mithil qit3i6 jaleeed" how cheesy is that? i mean who would want to shabih 7alo fi Qit3it jaleed? ICECUBE mfakr 7alo? msaggi3 yimkin!! ( dunno why i didn't just FLIP the channel)... Sometimes you hate a movie or a song but feel like you have ot listen to it because its like WAAAAJIB!!!

I tend to get away from my topic.. where was i... so maybe it was the unnecessary mini fatayer i had eaten in the office.. maybe it was the masa7at going back and forth making that EEE EEEE EEE sound.. or MAYBE it was that Freaking BUS that was heading my direction with no breaks!! If i was in amman i would be tempted to roll down my window and scream

" MABROOK 3aleik il shaaari3" (jk)

So.. FEAR = REACTION .. ME = BAD REACTION drove into RASEEF...

what up with my english 3arabi talking hehe

so i reached the house and hamdulila the tire was making fart-like noises all the way.. till finally i parked and Thanked God that again GAT SALEEMA!

p.s out of all the days i had forgotten my phone at home and was trying to send out an SOS to the world using TELEPATHIC VIBES! Not sure it worked though :P

itza7lakit

Another day.. another adventure... another injury lol

As i was ba7oos fil ma6bakh.. i slipped... i remember things went into slow motion as i fell.. but al hamdulilah as always GAT Saleeemah.. just a few bruises here and there... nothing serious hamdulilah!

But you know what.. my imaginary cow seems to be afraid to hang around me these days and even when she does she wears a helmet... wonder why? :P

RAMADAN KAREEM

Sub7annallah... RAMADAN is HERE! Just felt like yesterday that we were saying the same thing! It's my first ramadan as a MADAM! The first ramadan where i do the cooking hehe

You know i'm sure most of did go grocery shopping before ramadan.. well i did.. and even though you plan on buying just a few things.. knowing its ramadan and you will be starving and you will be thinking about your "IFTAR" all day.. you end up loading your cart with all sorts of food! As if you heard that a NUCLEAR bomb is going to hit the country and you have to get as much food as possible to survive in your shelter!

Oh and that shopping trip was made on a normal day when you are not fasting... wait till you go grocery shopping when you are fasting and there is like an hour left for adaan!! AAAAH! that is what i would call " IJRAAAAM" <-- a criminal act lol so.. about cooking.. i love cooking.. seriously! i will post pics after a request from the readers but as soon as i fix my camera! It's ART! really! your tabkha is your work of art! 3anyway... so my point is.. although we tend to get carried away with food in ramadan.. it is not the purpose of the month and we should all take advantage of these few blessed days and try to focus on the true purpose behind ramadan.. its not to watch all those tv shows or to eat like never before.. it's to get closer to God to feel the spirituality of this month.. to reflect on the past ramadan and how we were then.. will we be better this yeas? we should always hope and aim to be a better muslims, better people... I think of it of a chance of repentance & self-renewal.. May God BLESS YOU ALL!

May this month be an end to all sadness ... Inshala baba will be better after we all pray4 him throughout ramadan... Al hamdulilah he is back home... recovering really slowly... but at least there are signs of recovery

May God accept our prayers & good deeds & forgive our sins and negligence throughout the years..

RAMADAN MUBARAK TO ALL

Ana M3aDaLLeH

Now i can say im officially married.. liesh? well.. i discovered i can cook! no seriously i CAN cook! You eat it my tabkha and not only are you alive it actually tastes GOOD! * dino pats herself on the back and says " m3addale hehe

Not only do i cook.. i also manage to always leave a memory of the tabkha on my skin.. a scar of some sort.. a cut.. a burn... i ALWAYS forget to wear those cooking glove mittens we have!!

So i recently discovered that i can master the act of MULTI_FUNCTIONING.. once i was cooking lunch & dessert (nutella cupcakes) with ghaseeel bilaflef in the ghasaleh.. TV show on for entertainment... phone on speaker so i can talk while i cook... mamsa7a under my feet to wipe the mess i make.. between stirs i usually do the dishes... or anshur il ghaseel.. then lamlim the first batch of ghaseel & ofcourse somehow i manage to make time to get rid of all the lovely tabeekh smells from me and look nice 


AM i bionic woman or what? thinking back at the me b4 marriage i never thought i would be able to do all these things and work! But discovering the Chef Dino$ in me is GREAT! i LOVE cooking!!! yummy!

My cow refuses to stay in my kitchen while i cook and says she will not witness the cold blooded murders of any bagara... she has been trying to make me become a vegetarian... convincing me that chicken is a better choice...

bas sho 2a3mal i'm not really into beef but ya3ni generally speaking Ba7ib il la7me

Car Trouble

Ok.. 

remember how i i blogged once about my last car getting canceled in a car accident.. i forgot to mention i recently got a new CAR... that is not the khabar.. the news is that my new carcareeero.. :(---- 3a6laneh! there was an oil leakage and i dont even know how it happened.. yes i sometimes daydream when i drive and im not exaclty the best driver which makes all fingers point at me when things like this happen but really im innocent! i have no idea what hit the car! :(--- its new!!

not only that it got scratched 2 huge scratches in the PARKING!When i say scratch i don't mean those down with a key.. like MAJOR SCRATCH! ALLAH ysam7ak ya b3eed!

i park and wake up the next day to surprises! PEOPLE if you scratch someones car leave a NOTE or actually LOOK WHEN YOU TURN! ifffffft

i started thinking of other ways to get to work that don't involve car scratches oil leakage or speeding tickets! :P You know off the topic you know when you are following someone to somewhere ( not following as in psycho killer stalker following) but folloowing as in for directions.. and you end up on a roundabout... don't you get annoyed how you always end up waiting for like 10 mins after they pass?! or when you are at a traffic light and it turns RED right after they pass!? or when suddenly all the buses trucks and cars in the world decide to CUT IN FRONT OF YOU!!

AAAARGH.. sho hada?!

Ofcourse bagarti is back in business! She has had a hard time getting over the fact that i'm married! But now she adjusted to the new lifestyle :)

Cow Appreciation Day!!

Today is not any day... it is... COW APPRECIATION DAY.. so people... if you come across a cow... give it some lovin'

:) a hug... a massage... a facial... just be good to all cows today :) Eat your burgers 2moro :)

BLOCK BLOCK BLOCK

you know recently i have realized that i have this strange ability to block things... i think its a blessing.. like i have a built in firewall that only accepts certain thoughts and blocks others...

this firewall works almost all the time... but there are moments.. it suddenly shuts down and i'm overwhelmed with those thoughts i had blocked and i feel like i am going to burst into tears.. and sometimes i do.. and people around me would look at me weird and think .. wasn't she fine just a second ago... well.. just cause i don't express what i feel doesn't mean i don't feel it..

my bagara has been a great help and keeps dancing in her new leopard outfit singing lurpak songs...

anyway... i don't think i'll ever get over how my dad is now... and i'll never understand what happened to him... i can't imagine that he might not ever be the same.. i can't imagine how he feels... it hurts so much that blocking this reality is what keeps me okay..

some things don't get easier by time.. the only thing that gets easier is blocking...


ok... too much nakad for one day...

after all this time just when we thought baba was getting better and moved out of the ICU.. he went back in last night... they might get him out today.. inshala khier... its so hard to deal with things especially when you have high hopes... then suddenly you are back to square one..

Allah Ysabirna wa yishfee :(

PIANIST NEEDED

*SCREAM

It's NOT ALL about YOU

The WHOLE world does not revolve around YOU.. when i say YOU i mean those people who somehow make any event that happens, no matter how trivial or significant it might be, they make everything ABOUT THEM ...

Those people who would come and just flip out and act like its okay to bite your head off just cause THEY are having a bad day...

Those people who say things like " i know that girl lost her parents in tsunami and is paralyzed and will not be able to pay for her treatment, I've been through worse!! I was swimming in jumaira beach once and i SWEAR i was about to drown! then i got bit by a jellyfish!! I FELT like i was going to die so i KNOW how she feels.. at least she doesn't have a jellyfish SCAR on her arm"

pssssssht * dinos Rolls eyes

I think we all tend to get a bit selfish and make things always about ourselves... i also know people do stupid things sometimes and say " It's MY LIFE ANA 7ur free to do what i want" unaware that sometimes THEIR stupid actions don't only affect them but the people around them...

Freedom of choice has nothing to do with being an IDIOT!

Someone who drinks and drives can kill innocent people and block traffic for hours!
Someone can suddenly go into "CANDYMAN/ FRIDAY 13th" mode and kill innocent people..

Unfortunately, as soon as ANYONE does something horrible they are not the only ones who suffer the consequences.. Every person comes from a certain group or is labeled
like for ex "ARAB,MUSLIM,PALESTINIAN,"

So if one arab or muslim does something bad.. automatically the WHOLE GROUP "shilleh"
is to blame...

IT's NOT ALL ABOUT YOU... it's NEVER just about you...

Shark Tale

I went to see an aquarium a while back and i was amused at the different types of fish and i still remember how the shark was "darib booz" swimming like he owned the place! ofcourse with my imaginative mind i imagined swimming in that huge tank.... and i thanked God fish can't think like humans do.. or they would create ways to come after US! :P

hyundai ad

:) here is something that made me laugh today.. thought i would share it with you

Tea Spill

the reason i don't blog much lately is because i feel my negative feelings and vibes will spread to the world so i try to save he negativity to myself and blog later when i'm back to "cheerful" mode..

but... then again the initial purpose of this blog is to vent & let out those negative feelings online rather than out on the people around me..

Let's say you are holding a very hot cup of tea... and for some reason you trip on something.. your hot tea is now not only spilt all over you.. but all over the person by your side... when you are hurt.. you usually unintentionally spill some of your anger and hurt on to the people closest to you...


so.. recently i have had not one.. not two but many slaps of reality... and i think i have been spilling most of my "TEA" on the closest people to me..

especially poor Cow :P who has her nieces visiting from "AMeriCana"

if i ever unintentionally burnt anyone by my "shay il wizza" im sorry...

Gat $aleemA

first let me just assure you that i don't make up stories.. and this blog is proof of how dramatic my life can get! Here is the story...

i was driving to the hospital to see baba.. and well te traffic light turned yellow and i knew i would miss it so i decided to slow down and stop when it turned red... and well i did... suddenly i hear someone hit the BREAKS.... EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE still unsure if that person would hit ME!! BOOOOOOOOOM! HE HIT MY CAR!! he was driving over 100 on a road with 70 speed limit!!! im so glad i was wearing a seatbelt... that no one was driving ahead of me!! it could of been much worse... so al hamdulilah...

i have to wear a neck brace for a while till my neck feels better.. nothing serious.. al hamdulilah.. but its the whole experience!!!

hope this is the end of the DRAMA!

Cow survived the crash with slight injuries.. and a broken leg :P

btw my car is useless now.. too damaged to be fixed.. so im carless now.. *sigh

yala al hamdulilah...

do u believe me now when i say... 7ayati FILM!

Hideaway

i need to get away... i wish i was invisible... i need time away from all the comments i hear.. people interfering in my life.. making my decisions 4 me ! if i need advice believe me i WILL ASK for it! Unwanted Advice is simply UNWANTED!

Does my face have " please interfere in my life?" written all over it?

*dinos looks in a mirror...NO SUCH LINE ON MY FOREHEAD...
hmmm ok there could be some spots on my forehead forming an illegible line :P

i do appreciate it when someone cares and asks about me and my dad's condition and tells me they are there for me...(but ONLY when they mean it )

but what i don't like is when people don't really care but call just " rafi3 3attab".. like its "socially expected" of them to do so.. so they will visit u and call u once and disappear.. those calls or visits are not what i need right now..

And if you have nothing nice to say.. pls don't say anything at all..

AND...whether or not i will wear a white dress to my wedding.. whether or not i will even HAVE a wedding...or who will i invite... etc. is MY business..

no one has any right to judge me for wanting to have this night... im not saying right NOW with these circumstances... but eventually i will inshala and no one has any right to make me feel guilty...

i dont want to hear anymore comments on how my wedding should be.. or where it will be or if there is going to be a wedding...


i dont want to hear anymore insincere " if you need anything im here for you" lines..
i know who is there for me and who isn't.. and i know who my true friends are... and who really cares..i surely don't need anymore guilt trips from anyone...

just had to vent....


btw cow and i decided to go to the jungle to meet her friends... :P

The M@$K

i've always felt like a moody person.. but recently it's not just mood swings it's more like extreme schizophrenic attacks... i feel like im in the movie " The Mask"

Sssssssssomebody SSSSSSStop meeee... :P

it's not denial.. i've accepted my dad's situation... i sure do hope he will recover... and i know it's for the best... but sometimes to deal with reality i try not to think about it.. i keep myself busy.. i do the things i usually do everyday... i go to work.. i blog.. i eat.. i sleep.. see my friends... but then there is that moment when im not busy.. when im not with anyone.. the moment when reality catches up with me...

it's like someone took away a part of me.. like something inside me has died and is rotting more and more each day.. like someone tore my arms off and im sitting there looking away from the wounds.. acting like nothing happened... looking away for so long that i forget what has happened....

but no matter how far away i look... there will come a moment when i need to pick something up or even scratch my nose and i realize i have no arms..my arms are not there and i can never run away from myself...

hamdulilah i do have my arms .. im just trying to express how i feel..

i didn't know how much my dad did for us and how much we relied on him...i took him for granted.. that he will always be there... i miss him ... i miss his loud voice.. i miss our few talks... i miss having him around ...

i hate to sound this depressed.. i usually use humor to deal with drama.. i do succeed most of the time.. but right now im not wearing my mask...

the mask i wear so often that i think sometimes i even fool myself... please take my advice and if your dad's are healthy and there.. dont take them for granted.. talk to them more... because eventually all you will have from your parents are memories


al hamdulilah

Funny Indian Ads

after seeing a few indian commercials i really would like to share these 2 with you all! i saw the second one too many times that the song " mmmmmmwaaaaah" aheeeeeeeeyaheeeeeyaaaaaaay is stuck in my head... lol so my advice don't watch more than 3 times lol

Drama Drama Drama

My life is so dramatic... its a soap opera... the weirdest things happen to me... so I'm back with another episode of my life.. in my week off work we woke up one night to the FIRE alarm at 4 AM in the morning... THERE WAS A FIRE IN OUR BUILDING! Nice... eh? lol

Anyway i got flashbacks the last time i woke up freaked out at 4 am not so long ago to hear my mom call the ambulance for baba... So..you can imagine the DRAMA! we had to leave the building as soon as possible for all we knew the whole building could be on fire... and to think of what are the things i want to take with me.. hmm EVERYTHING.. what do i have time take NOTHING!! i started going back and forth quickly in the room trying to wear the first thing i find in my face! thinking back im sure it looked like i was doing some sort of weird rap dance in the room jumping from one side to the other with confusion!!

SO... we ran down the stairs and i remembered and Egyptian movie i used to always watch when i was a kid.. ( don't know why i watched it though it was kind of not a movie for kid).. the movie's was " KARAKOON FIL SHAri3 " Adel imam and yusras house falls down and i remember the scene with all the people running out and each person was carrying something weird.. one guy had a TV with him! LOL

Anyway... so we went downstairs and i thought i looked weird with my abaya on top of my pyjama till i saw the rest of the people who were downstairs! Some were so scared they didn't even put much clothes on! now i understand the arabic saying " il ikhtashoooo maaato"..hmm how can i translate that without it sounding cheesy... " those who get shy will die" lol

soooooooo... the fire was in a shop in our building's ground floor... it was big but was put out and after 3 hours mitil il musharadeen in the streets we went back home... AL HAMDULILAH

glad it wasn't serious :)

And about my dad.. well right after my last post about him getting better he had seizures and was put back on the machines... then al hamdulilah 2 days ago he was able to breath again and is back off the machines... it's always up's an downs and you can never know what is going to happen next... Inshala ya Rab he will recover from this...

Al hamdulilah 3ala kol ishi ... ill keep you guys posted in my next episode

Favorite Video$

ill be off for a week starting today and i might nto get a chance to blog.. dad's condition is much better he is breathing on his own and is awake :) he also had "boootha" icecream yesterday.. recovery takes time... and lots of patience.. but i feel good al hamdulilah.. Allah kareem and he will be better soon inshala :)

sub7annaLLah

And pls don't stop your prayers they are WORKING :) al hamdulilah

Thank you all for your support! Allah yis3idkum Jamee3an :)

Numbness

i feel numb inside...

numbness... the lack of feeling.. perhaps it would be more accurate to say a lack of connection with our feelings or a disconnection from emotions..numbness is one way we protect ourselves against the onrush of pain and against being overwhelmed by suffering...

In my case its emotional pain, but don't we respond similarly to a physical blow with numbness before our pain sets in?

I remember once when i was in grade 4 i was playing hide and seek with a girl that was 3 times my size... well it was her turn to seek and i was peeking from behind a corner of a wall.. trying to see where she was... suddenly a heavy weight plunged at me from a distance.. .. i remember a BIG THUD!!!

everything was in slow motion... i was not quite aware of what was happening... the sound of the kids playing the playground faded out and i don't remember seeing anyone around me...(although i was surrounded by people).. i do remember there was a lot of screaming though..

my white t-shirt is now a dark shade of red...i was bleeding... the girl had tripped and fallen right on top of me... causing my head to hit the wall corner from top to bottom.. (ouch)

i don't remember feeling pain... i felt numb... confused... in shock.. it was only later on my way to the hospital that i felt a throbbing pain in my head...

that is what i feel now.. numb at what has happened... i know soon that excruciating pain will come... when i realize the severity of the wound...

Sometimes in the house i'd be plugging in something to the electricity and suddenly the electricity would go off...

just like dangerous surge of electricity will activate a circuit breaker and cut off the electricity to stop a fire or the chances of electrocution.. i feel a great deal of anguish will activate our emotional "circuit breaker" temporarily, so that we don't feel the pain...

self defense mechanism i guess..

Dad's condition is stable.. he opened his eyes.. can move one hand al hamdulilah... there are signs of recovery.. but to see him so helpless and weak brings so much sadness to my heart..

Allah y2awmoh bil salameh wa ysabirna.. all we have is our prayers... wa Allah Kareem

He Squeezed my HAND!

Yesterday i went to see my dad and as i was talking to him and then suddenly he opened his eyes... i was suddenly speechless.. i held his hand and i tried to think of what was the best thing to say to someone who just woke up from a coma and has tubes in his mouth and nose! the best thing to say to someone who in in so much pain and is unable to even express himself! i said " hamdila 3al salameh " i think i stuttered a bit...

its so funny how i get nervous when i talk to my dad.. like anything i say to him will sound stupid...

he is a serious man.. he doesn't usually get my jokes.. or gets them and decides to ignore them... :S anyway it was no time for humor.. i sat there saying how we miss him and how the house is depressing without him.. and then i felt him SQUEEZE my hand... i never thought such a simple gesture could stand for so much... i felt his pain.. i could hear his cry for help.. i felt his love.. i felt his sadness.. his confusion at why his lying in bed unable to get up or speak....

he would look around like a baby who is discovering the world for the first time... at that moment i felt like i was the parent.. sub7anallah


i felt helpless... but al hamdulilah.. he is getting better.. i don't really remember the last time i held his hand... i don't think i ever did. ( except for when i was a kid)

Allah yishfee :) i feel its everyones prayers being answered :) al hamdulilah

Life is a SIM card

ok why am i saying that? life is a sim card... a week ago it occurred to me how we are not so different from our phones when i again dropped my phone in water...

just like one drop of water in the wrong place can cause serious damage.. a drop of air in our bloodstream will cause immediate death... a drop of blood in the e brain causes sever brain damage... so we are left like a damaged phone... body is there but the memory is all lost... same phone... no connection to the world.. a body without a soul... or with a soul that is trapped in a body that is too damaged for it to even be seen...

we are more fragile than we realize... how could we be so weak yet so stubborn and ignorant? how could we know of this weakness and still act like we are invincible?
i guess its a blessing sometimes to be this ignorant.. imagine living in fear of death every second...

This past week i have learnt so many lessons.. believe it or not this week i have counted more blessings than i have in my life! i feel truly blessed.. and thankful..

Spending time in the hospital all day, i saw many stories that only made me feel more thankful... stories that happened to ppl and could've happened to anyone of us..

everyday i see a 30 year old man who had suffered from a brain stroke. he has been in the hospital for 11 months now.. and just recently he has opened his eyes and is showing signs of recovery.. i see his family around him everyday teaching him how to eat and speak again..

he has 4 kids and he was perfectly fine.. up until one day at work he was stressed out and had a brain stroke. His little daughter comes to the hospital everyday with a new song and sings it to him. She would hug him and sing to him and his wife said he tried to snap his fingers as she sang to him!

i see kids that are born crippled or paralyzed. And even though they are the way they are they are the most cheerful kids i have ever seen.. laughing and smiling and playing..

i see a 5 year old kid using a walker because she is born with crooked legs... i see an old man who has been in ICU in a coma for 6months and no one hardly visits him.

i see all sorts of people from all around the world and i realize that no matter how different we might seem.. we are all the same.. all holding on to the people we love.. holding on to life.. with everything that we have.


i feel blessed to have a father to worry about... some people are born into families without parents... i feel blessed to have my health and my family and loved ones around me helping me go through this everyday.. i feel blessed that we have enough money to afford a hospital while some people die because they can't afford the costs of hospitals & operations.. i feel blessed that i have faith at times like this when i know lots of people tend to lose their faith in God.. i feel blessed because everything that happens to us happens for a reason & with Faith and Patience (Sabr) God will reward us by taking away from our sins...

al hamdulilah... ina ma3 al 3usri yusra


another blessing is that now with all those ppl calling me i got my contacts back with extra numbers kaman :)

Sad Friday

its the first friday without my dad being home... he has travelled before and i have not seen in in months sometimes but this is different.. i keep telling myself he travelled somewhere... but then reality crawls back into my head and i realize what has happened..

I think fridays are harder than any other days to cope with this.. since i hardly saw him except on friday.. he would always wake up early and then we would all have the "FRIDAY Ftooor" which usually includes Fool Farouq <-- FArouq is baba..

so... b4 that he would always love to go to carfour and get all sorts of food! he loves food wa iza FE any OFFER in the world he will get it.. if you take a look in our kitchen you find boxes and boxes of biscuits and chocolates... and probably no one has ever heard of them! And when we say " baba la meen kol haaad? ma 7ada ra7 yakloh!" he says " ANA bowkloh" :S

see a major reason he is where he is right now is how careless he was when it comes to food! he would eat all sorts of baskoot and BAGLAWA and tabeekh without even tryin to khafif!! :(--

Anyway.. i keep remembering the time he would come and ask me to go to carfeour with him or to any dicsount center and id refuse and say " ma fee ishi hnaak" or " mush jay 3ala bali"... it hurts so much when it finally occurs to me that it was never about those discount centers.. it was his way of asking me to spend time with him..

whats even sadder is that now when i go and talk to him... i find my tongue tied and i feel like i cant say anything.. the same feeling i got when he was awake.. i want to tell him how i feel.. how i miss him.. how sad i am when i go home without him here.. how i am sorry i wasnt the best daughter... and all i can say is " baba ana hown"

we sense he can hear us.. he blinks when we talk to him and i feel inshala with all those prayers he will recover .. YA RAB....

Dad's in a Coma

let me say it again maybe this time it will sink in... Dad is in a coma... my dad? how ???? why can't i believe it? why can't i understand that this is happening..
we spend our whole lives planning and planning for things and then suddenly what we never expect happens and we sit there feeling shocked and helpless...

the day before he was fine.. making jokes.. eating.. laughing.. i rememeber thinking i have never seen him this happy... suddenly at night i hear mom telling my brother to call and ambulance.. it was like a nightmare only i was awake.. i go in the room to only see my dad in bed unable to move or speak.. his face was half paralyzed.. and that is teh image that has been haunting me.. to hear him moan with pain.. knowing he is trying to SAY something.. but CANT! the look in his eyes while the ambulance struggled to carry him away to the hospital...

everything was in slow motion.. still is in slow motion.. all i remember is those times i culd of spent with him and i chose to sit in my room or on the phone talking to someone else.. i think of all the talks we never had.. the things i couldnt say..

the funny thing is the first time i ever kissed his hand was when they were carrying him away to the ambulance... i try not to cry to be strong... but its so hard..

All i can do is pray... and the reason im bloggin now is because i want you ALL to pray for him.. please please.. i believe the more we pray the sooner he will get better..

LA hawla wala Quwata il Billah... Only GOd has the strength to make everything okay... Wa ina lila wa ina ilayh raji3oon... wa al hamdulilah.. Allah ysabirna wa ya2awmo bil salmeh ya RAB

ghirig talaaaaafooooni

ok i didnt have to time to illustrate the situation.... but again... i manage to drop my phone in a PUDDLE of WATER.... i usually have it in my lap when i sit in the car.. and well usually i drop it when i leave the car forgetting its IN MY LAP...

yesterday as i was going to see the wedding card ( very stressed out and ANGRY) cause they seem to hear my words in CHINESE!! anyway i leave the car and i hear...
