Bagoora updates

i have not been able to update the blog for a while. i have actually not been able to do many things. Being a mom is a full time job. when i say full time i mean there is no time at all to do anything but feed lulu, change lulu, hold lulu, burp lulu *cycle continues. My time is not mine anymore, i forgot how it feels like to think of myself and to do anything other than be a mom.

It gets easier with time and everyday you fall more and more in love with your baby. She is starting to smile and makes the cutest sounds! sometimes i just feel my heart turns into melted hot fudge!

Now the Big News. After feeling neglected and replaced. Bagoora chose to accept a marriage proposal from 6owr from her past. She is happy and says she will visit me from time to time. I will miss her and will still update you with her cartoons when i get a chance :)

DIno Did Not Deliver

Too lazy to draw a cartoon. just updating you before u assume that i delivered in the past 2 days.
WE ARE still here! :)

*sigh* i will keep u posted

Lulu Bifafee LAba6

Ya Yumma.. Ya habeebti...
Would you like a cocktail or tea?
Whats so cool about my belly?

Ur laba6 is starting to get on my nerves
Ur kalbazah is adding to my "curves"
I think ENOUGH Is Enough already!
Will you ever be READY?!

I keep getting calls and msgs everyday
Asking if you came out to play
You already have a group of fans here!
PLEASE KHALSEEENI! *dino sheds a tear

Ya Lulu

Lulu at first waznek ma kansh t2eeel
I compared you to a happy meal
Now you are hurting my back
And you r leaving no room for my snack!

I must say for golfing there is the golf creek
So why don't u break my water! a small little leak!
Look around you for the nearest exit please
And when you're out the dr will spank your t$%z

Waley lulu your making mommy go insane
You better not give me major labor pain!
Also don't break the water in the rain
Allah ysam7ek 3ala this weight gain! :P

translation : waznek ma kansh t2eeel= u werent that heavy

When will u sharfeena?

Almost all my bregnant friends have had their babies
I asked my DR when will I?! she gave me lots of "maybes"
So here i am sleepless and inflated
i think my delivery will be belated

Since my little lulu is having fun inside
I shall jiggle my big belly with pride
"LULU U CANNOT FOREVER HIDE"
Soon my taf3eees u cannot ABIDE

The more you will make me wait ya binti
The more i will fa3is the inti
so please please yumma sharfina
ta3ali la your mama dina!!

Dear Lulu

Dear lulu! sho bitsawee in my batoon?
Isnt it crowded in there? R u Qoming soon?
I know you are not due for about a week

Are you smoking shisha inside?
Are you enjoying the jiggly karoosh ride?
Are you dancing to dagat galbi?
When u are out akeed ra7 tghalbi

I wonder if u will be as crazy as mommy
So well as long as you are in my tummy
i must remind u girls are'nt meant to be soccer players
so bikafee shalaleet come out & answer mommy's prayers!

Pregnanc = Bagraneh

So maybe some of you are sick of pregnancy talk. Others are feeling pregnant themselves from my posts and status updates. But what can i say? I usually post about my life and now i am pregnant and pretty much that is all i can talk about :) wait till lulu is here and i'll drive you crazy with baby talk!

Before i was pregnant i just craved chocolate. Then after i got pregnant i could hardly eat for 3 months of puking and lost 6 kg . then....there was a major turn in my karoosh lovin!

I went to bed thinking of my next meal. i woke up thinking of breakfast. i ate breakfast and planned my lunch. My cravings changed from just chocolata to everything!

Thank God i didnt gain as much as some pregnant ladies but i also was no angelina when i got pregnant so i have to keep that in mind before i pig out! But sometimes my cravings are stronger than my self control. *munching on chocolates

About 2 weeks left! AAAAAAAAH!

Bagoora looked at me the other day and said " mama"

*sigh

Dear Belly

My Dear Pregnant Belly
You were once simple a Karoosh
You sometimes still feel like jelly
And sometime i fill you with Fatoosh

You sometimes block my view
And are starting to get in my way
You are so big i can't reach my shoe
You are getting bigger everyday

I will miss using you as a table
But i will not miss you in my sleep
when you are gone i will finally be able
to sleep without counting sheep

:)

*p.s. this cartoon is an illustration of a real photo i took watching tv and was told its too embarrassing to post on my blog :)

Any Minute Now

i have officially entered the 9th month. Actually i am starting the 2nd week of the 9th month. It is said that as soon as you enter the 9th month you could POP anyday. Usually if its the first baby you finish your whole month but in some cases you deliver 2 weeks or more before!

So what am i feeling this month? Its like i was not pregnant till this month started! my movement is sooooo hard! getting out of a chair seems like an exhausting task! I sit there and have to swing myself off the chair or ask someone to help me up! I usually dont feel like getting up after i sit down! Baby lulu is getting bigger and so are her kicks! She is starting to hurt mommy with her turns and kicks. Not only is there pressure on my bladder but my intestines seem squashed ! *sigh

my days are long... and so are my nights... when will i boggg this baby already! lol

yes yes i know i will not sleep when she is out but i already cant sleep or roll over in bed !

GOTTA GO to the bathroom.. again... "YA MAMA BIKAFEE SHALALEET "

Pray for Dinos!!

Sea Lion Dino

So now that i am entering the 9th month! AAAAH! let me repeat that so that it will sink in the 9th month! im just feeling all sorts of things. i mean its only now that i REALLY feel pregnant!
At the beginning of the pregnancy i felt like i was just a bit bloated and maybe sometimes food poisoned because of the puking. Then in the second trimester it was like am getting fat only in mostly in my belly and that my meals are alive and just twirling in my stomach. I also felt like a pig from the way i have been attacking food! i also felt like a cow for reasons i am not comfortable sharing on my blog lol well im sure most of u got it already.

anyway....

Now.... i feel like a sea lion lying on a shore of an ocean. All i wanna do is sleep on a rock and listen to the sound of the ocean. I also feel like a penguin when i walk from side to side. i can't even turn around in bed without feeling like i need a crane to come and pick me up!

Not to mention that there is a head on my bladder. meaning i might move me bed into the bathroom.

Sigh.. so to summarize... pregnancy makes humans experience being all sorts of animal like traits and its a lovely experience lol

WISH ME LUCK!! AAAAAH!

Glad to be back & Alive !!

Egypt trip was a very in6aras6ing exberyons.. i sink i will talk lik zis for a waaayil :P

just kidding... i love the english egypshan.. its like language on its own! Well while i was there i spent most of my time in the hotel but still managed to go the mall "city stars"!

i have never seen worse driving EVER than in egypt! its like who needs roller coaster rides when u can simply get in a CAB!

Ofcourse i had a mild case of food poisoning after having a salad . should have listened to mama when she said dont eat anything that is not cooked. naughty dino.

whats up with people asking for tips for everthing there? "ma tekremeeena ba2a" "ma 3andikeesh haga 7ilwa" "tab 2ayzeen nishrab shay"

the lady in the airport who was checking me in was like " ma feesh haga 7ilwa liya" *shocking

we planned on going to khan al khalili but after hearing about the bombing we chose to stick to city stars mall :P we went to al neel had dinner.. it was nice... i had a good time...

on the flight back..... i ended up sitting next to 2 egybshanz ... both male.. on the right a very shy and nervous man and on the left was a very saye3 "yo yo wassap" guy who seemed to have 2 phones and 100 girlfriends. before the plane took off he would call different girls and say
" ideeni bosa" lol eww..

so an hour before landing the plane went through major turbulence.. when i say major i mean like the pilot lost control for a whole minute the plane was pretty much crashing.. ppl were screaming and crying... and yelling "shahada" ! i think i just wanted to hang on to anything! it was so scary.. i thought of the movie final destination.. the series lost and wondered if i will end up on an islan with ben and the lost shilah!

but most of all i felt omg.. i dont want to die. and in that moment i felt i regretted so many hours i wasted doing nothing and how bad it felt to know that im an not in that place where i feel islamicly ready.. i feel i got so caught up in life and meaningless things that i forgot that in one second i could die! In that moment i wish i read more quran. that i prayed more. did so many things.. and now im back and im fine and its hard to feel that feeling again. we forget. but God doesnt. we regret. but God forgives.

i wish that i can be a better person and that i can press one button to clean my heart and make my iman as strong as it once was.

ok that was a serious moment.. so well if u all wondered where bagoora is.. she is still in egypt and has been spending lots of time with a gamoosa :P will keep u posted with her news lol

Im Due April 18th inshala..... Pray for Me & little layla "lulu"

Moved to New Apartment

Hello I'm Back after a long time! I have been so busy with the moving process ! We moved to a new apartment ! It's in sharjah and its much bigger than the one we were in & i love it! hamduliah :) its 5 mins away from my parents house and my best friends live on the same ROAD! woo hooo :) 

My belly is getting bigger and bigger by the second and i find myself sitting and staring at it while baby lulu kicks and turns and i see it changing in shape! sub7anallah. her kicks are harder now and soon i think they will start to HURT! 

im in the 29th week. 7th month. so i think i should start the countdown and freaking out! AAAH! I need advice on what are the best stroller/car seat/crib/baby changing table to buy.

All you mothers and people with experience in that department don't hesitate in leaving me a comment to enlighten me to this world of baby stuff i just get so confused when i go into the baby shop! 

p.s. i officially walk like a penguin now 

Anybody see Bagoora

I'm in the 6th month now... and i feel my belly is getting bigger by the second. i wish i could say it was all baby but i know for a fact i have been pigging out! Yes Yes i know i should eat healthy and watch what i eat and those extra pounds will stick to me forever. TELL THAT TO MY APPETITE! It's not a feeling of hunger! its simply "FAJA3"! whats mafjoo3a in english??

Slowly i am sayinbg bye bye to my feet. i still see the front part but im sure soon i will have a hard time reaching my feet! maybe i will walk around barefoot like my cartoon :P

So bagoora seems to have been missing anyone SEE HER? lol

IT's A GirL

Sorry i haven't posted for a while i was in kuwait :) Back now and GUESS WHAT?!

ITS A GIRL! YIpeeeeeeee! i have to admit i kind of felt it was from the start! with my baby girl baby dreams! i thought maybe the dreams were because i always wanted a girl but apparently my psychic feelings were CORRECT :)

someone has to stop me from spending all my money on cute baby girl clothes! i am addicted to baby shopping! OH and someone has to STOP ME FROM EATING!

in the beginning the problem was that i could not eat because of the puking so i ended up losing a lot of weight! NOW I CAN'T STOP! its like there is a HOLE in my stomach i can eat and eat and eat and not feel full!

But after the doctor said i gained way too much for one month i am starting to control myself

*munching on khass and khyar and healthy food and trying to imagine that it's chocolate 

*sigh

Baby is kicking now and when i have chocolate i think she starts dancing and kicking all over the place!

i am going to name her LAYLA inshala :)

Girl or Boy

So i still don't know if it's a girl or boy but its so annoying because i could have found out 2 months ago. Last appointment i had it on the calender and thought i had an ultrasound! Apparently i should have booked a separate appointment for ultrasound! So well my appointment is DEC 4th! CANT WAIT!

What is more important than that baby's sex is that its a healthy baby inshala :)

Baby Fears

So now i am in the beginning of the 5th month now and i feel everyday i find out something new! or i experience something weird! Now my belly is in that stage where people stare at it wondering is it a KARSH or Pregnant belly?! I don't puke anymore but well i am expanding ! Some changes are too embarrassing to blog about! lets just say me and cow will only have more and more in common !

I start imagining how it will be like after being used to sleeping a lot and having time to myself. I freak out when i think of how i will deal with the responsibilities of having a bobo. But inshala i will manage somehow with a lot of valium and coffee to stay awake :P

Any mothers out there if you have any useful tips please share them with me and if you are going to tell me negative things like " forget your life" or " u will never sleep again" . save it i have heard it before. 

Bobo (_/_)'s

Sorry for not cartoon today and for being away for a while. i keep catching all sorts of flus and end up feeling sick and tired. I think that i can feel little bobo kicking but not so clearly its like little butterflies or twitches. Some say i could be mistaken that it could be gas lol but i stand by my belief that it was the bobo!

Don't you love baby (_/_)'s !Soo cute! im probably never going to let my baby wear diapers so that i can admire its tiny tatooz! But well i will probably suffer the consequences! Those tatoozat are tiny and cute you would never believe the amout of poop that can come out of them.

I think this is one of my rather disgusting posts and i dont know why im discussing gas,tatooz and poop 3al subu7. :P

Have a great day ! :P

Pregnancy & Runny Noses

I learn something new everyday in my pregnancy. Apparently the puking was the reaction of the body rejecting the "bobo" because to the body it is a "foreign body" and will reject it and eventually the immune system will be suppressed an is less effective and well this explains my cold :) 

I feel like someone forget his shib shib in my throat. I feel like i need to attack a vacuum to each nostril! i think in 2 days i have finished 4 tissue boxes. 

Il muhim al humduliah :) i got to see my bobo move for the first time. Little tiny bobo that is only 4 cms now and already moves and kicks little bobo kicks! Sub7analah!  I mean seriously this calls for a movie called "what lies beneath the karsh" lol 

More on Pregnancy

Now that im pregnant even my dreams revolve around babies and pregnancy and labor! All baby dreams! Last weird dream was that my baby was so tiny and turned into "3ajeeneh"

I do know that my sister used to call me "al ragheef al 3ajeeb" because of my chubby round face but to have a "3ajeen" baby is something else! lol

So ofcourse the news of someone being pregnant spreads as fast as the news of engagements and weddings & death (b3eed il shar). So i keep getting calls from people saying " YOU'RE PREGNANT!" followed by a lot of chipmunk like screams and a few " OMG OMG OMG"

hehe it's nice! But what i hate is the unwanted advice! Or when people decided to say things like " oh you reminded of myself when i was 3 months pregnant i had a miscarriage" or " when i was pregnant i was going to die in the 8th month from complications"

"my marriage was fine up until i had kids" etc.

What i want to hear not is Happy Thoughts! Im already freaking out about the cow-like milk fountains that could start even before delivery! The Labor Pain! Whether or not to take the risk of Epidural! What will happen in delivery! How i will manage to take care of a baby when i can hardly take care of my plant! :S

Oh and what i hate! is when they always say "WALAD WALAD" inshala! As if il binit ils mseeebeh! i mean come on are we still in the stone age! They go like "jeebi il walad wa i6amani"! i say kolo min Allah mnee7! And its not like there is a button you press to get a BOY! i hear stories of men threatening to divorce the wife if she doesn't get a boy! all i can say to that is that is the definition of "TAKHALUF"

As for me i love girls and boys and if i love any gender more it would be girlies! with their cute baby clothes and hair clips! And when they grow up they turn into fountains of love. I would rather have a girl that grows up to make me proud and be good to me than a boy that could eventually yi6ali3 3ayni with his mughamarat & raging hormones.

Cow says she will help and that i am welcome to any fresh milk for the baby at anytime :)

Lazy Dino

So pregnancy is not as easy as i thought. Nausea aside you actually get really emotional. I cry to almost everything. for example there is this "ramadan" ad with a kid singing. I cried to another ramadan ad where a guy buys another guy a shirt. Everything makes me cry! So dont tell me anything that is even slightly sentimental or sad. I cry then i wonder WHY AM I CRYING?! its my hormones i guess!

Anyway. i feel so lazy and i just want to sleep all day! I know its too early to be in pregnant mode but wallah i already have lower back pain along with a bunch of other not so lovely symptoms!

NO Coffee No tea no tuna or anything raw. I have to eat more vegetables and healthy food.
Certain smells make me wanna barf! Even tastes! The toothpaste makes me GAG everytime i brush my teeth! Some perfumes too!

I feel my sense of smell has become even stronger! I always knew my nose was small but fa3aaal! now i feel i have super powers! i can smell things from a distance!

Not a good feeling when you are walking in a corwded place! Imagine walking next to someone who smells like sweat to a normal person. TO me i feel like my nose is ta7t baaaa6oh! ya333oooo

*dino puts nose clip on

Ramadan Tv

People have this idea that ramadan is the month of tv shows and late night sheesha and ofcourse food food and more food. Some have 3azayim for su7oor. Im not saying i don't watch baab al 7ara or tv but im shocked at how many shows start in ramadan. I saw this preview the other day for a tv show saying "ahlan ramadan" with a ra2asa ? hmmm

I remembered fawazeer nelli and sharehaan that we  used to watch as kids. In my head growing up ramdan was the month of fawazeer. Its sad but true that we are all caught up with all the "events" that come with ramdan that we don't do much thikr and 3ibadat. 

Allah yu3fu 3anna & May God accept your prayers.

Fatta humus wa Fatwa 3al hawa

So its ramadan again and ofcourse if you turn on the radio station you will here a lot of Fatawee 3al hawwa. Ofcourse people call with the same yearly questions. Whether its oka to brush your teeth in ramadan. If its okay to wear perfume and makeup. All sorts of questions! Some are just sometimes weird and emabrassing and you sit there wondering did that guy just REALLY say that?

Bagoora overheard a question on a station the other day. Someone was asking if its okay to eat a cow that is also considered a relative because they are so close to each other. She suspects it was me and has been avoiding me again. lol

I forgot to mention that fatta humus is something that tastes good with la7m il bagar :P ehehehe

Anyway... happy ramadan again!

RAMADAN MUBARAK

RAMADAN IS HERE AGAIN! A year has passed ! Sub7annallah! it was like yesterday that i was cooking for last ramadan :P oh the stress of finishing the tabkha on time! Today ma3zoomeen so NO COOKING YEAY! 

Has anyone one of you been to the supermarket lately? im guessing YES! i saw you all there when i went lol ! seriously EISH HAAAAAAATH?! hheh that called for the jordanian accent to come out. It only comes out in times when i want to make my point more AGGRESSIVE !

We went to get groceries. And ofcourse in the beginning we couldnt find a 3arabayeh! so we ended up with those messed up ones that are so m3affneen that you can even push them right! you end up bumping into ppl and saying "sorry" and pointing at the messed up shopping cart! And sometimes it decided to stop on its own like an sa3eedi donkey. And sometimes it just goes in directions on its OWN! After a lot of kicking and pushing and high blood pressure! i noticed that maybe its not just ramadan maybe its TSUNAMI or something? 

PEOPLE were shopping like crazy! VIMTO was out of stock 3 days ago! Cheese Sambosa all GONE! I was like omg? are we all MAFAjeeee3?! ofcourse i couldnt help but peak at everyone else's cart and omg. All full to the point that you cant see the person pushing it! haha

oh and the line for the cashier was up till the end of each aisle! can you imagine? so i experienced how it feels like when people ATTACK  a supermarket! 

So before i was told never to shop when i am hungry. I think shopping while you are fasting is much worse!!! :P

I admit we also got a lot of food but it was just because we don't plan on shopping for food in ramadan so it was like a month of shopping.. hehe 

So anyway... PEOPLE... RAMADAN KAREEM! kol 3am wa into bkhier! May all your prayers be answered. Bagoora is avoiding me and says i look at her differently. She claims that i see her as a walking hamburger in ramadan. I dont plan on eating her but last ramadan i was so close to using her for tabkha when we ran out of la77777meh!! :)

SHaaarrrraaaaaP!

You know i am one of the people who repeats stories because of my very very horrible memory i tend to repeat stories over and over again. lol I had to draw a cartoon for al alam about something similar . Those people who make up unbelievable stories just to impress you and in reality they look really stupid because no one really believes them. Like for ex saying they can see dead poeple. I met a girl who said she saw dead people not in her dreams but in real life. And all i can say to her is no more watching the series " GHOST WHISPERER"!! :)

Man's Point of View On Marriage

Hello All... miss me ? :D here is a cartoon i did for alalam newspaper. And well it was a post about a man complaining that since he got married all he is doing is buying gifts for his wife and her family and things for his wife. He complains that marriage is life a jail and that he wishes he was single again.

I mean its not marriage itself i guess it depends on who you marry :)

Bagoora will be back soon im a bit busy these couple of days

Away for a while

Dear Readers

i will be busy for the next couple of days so i will probably not be able to post any new bagoora cartoons. But as soon as i can i will definitely keep you posted with her new adventures.

:D see ya

AL HAMDULILAH! AS soon as my next job is official i will definitely blog about it
but for now inshala khier!

WISH ME LUCK!!

WOOOOOOOO HOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooo

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

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?
