Outraged

When two good friends fight, and they maintain to keep it discrete for a while that is good. This means that they are mature enough to not let people start snooping around.

When things start getting worse, and people start knowing, then limits should be set. Everyone should really know when to get involved and when to stay out of the whole thing. It’s not accepted that intruders would hunt down your life and your actions in order to make things right. Sometimes things are better left off they way they are. So much damage is done out of that, although there were so many good intentions behind the gestures taken, yet it’s outraging when you feel like people are not respecting your desires. Even if those people are persons you really care for, and refusing a favor for them is hard, but personal desires and self respect is more important.

I’m speechless!!!

Only one sin…

There is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft....When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness.

This was the best lines i read in the kite runner. There is so much wisdom in it. The truth that lies beneath those words hurts and it is unbelievably shocking, but should be taken into consideration. It’s like a life rule, you should always put it in front of your eyes and think twice before saying whatever is on your mind. How it will affect the life of others and yours before that.

The most important thing is, you really should be aware that you don’t say a lie and live it. This is literarily a disaster.

Granting Wishes Part [6]: A Friend is...

Friends to me are my life. They are like the air i breathe. They are chosen upon a very complex criteria that must be met. You can say i have my own HIGH standards for my friends. To make sure that they meet those standards, they go through dozens and dozens of tests. They don't know about that because that's me. Looking fir the tiny things that matter the most.

I'm a person who believes in having friends with different personalities. Why?? Because no one is perfect, so friends should complete each other. They should complete me in one way or another.

A friend is someone who is decent, knows when to push it and when to back off. Knows when to talk me into doing stuff in times I'm in desperate need of guidance, and knows when to only give advice.

A friend is someone who is always there for me when i need emotional support. It's something that is much more important to me than being there physically and doing nothing. Little, tiny things do matter. Saying good morning, glad you are fine, just dropping you a line, or stopping by or giving you a call to say how are you means the world to me.

A friend is someone i trust. And because i don't give away my trust easily " I admit i have trust issues, and it goes way back in time", so people should bare with me till I'm able to open up to them and reveal the hidden me.

A friend is someone who is always a phone call away. I can turn too and rely on when i'm in desperate need of help, or even when i just need a listening ear.

A friend is someone who can sense that there are times when judgment should be skipped, because Confession is hard and takes courage to do them. The fear of judgment is always there, and step one for the remedy is listening ears and an open heart.

A friend is someone who i can spend time with not feeling bad that we are sitting there not talking. Just passing the time through is like being with your own self. No obligations are expected. No judgment is bad like if this was bad manners or something. There is this mutual respect of privacy even when i am with that someone.   

A friend is someone who knows when to use a hug, a kiss on the cheek, and whisper "I love you" in my ears to take all the sadness away and a draw a smile on my face " My weak point :)"

So this is the cheat sheet, are you up for the exam?
People think they are always prepared. Only a few make it till the end. This is expected because

"People enter your life for a reason, for a season, or for a lifetime"

Cappuccino & Brownies

The other day i was having lunch with some friends, and one of them wanted us to pass the time by playing a little game. She said that each one of us should choose either something we eat or drink that describes our personalities. Take care not something we like, but something from our point of view which fits to who we really are. We all stayed quite for sometime then we decided to change the game because it was a tough one, because no one actually knows how to describe herself.

Tab3an, because i love to occupy my mind with personality analysis issues, i decided to give it some thought. What i came up with is, I’m so much like the combination of cappuccino and brownies or chocolate, either or. It’s the bitter and sweet cocktail.

Cappuccino is bitter and I'm so much like that, because i try my best to do the right thing. I try also to guide people to the right thing, doing good in this world means leading a better life in the future, and i love to think I'm having a hand in that. Sometimes being harsh and tough, and hitting people with the bold truth in their faces can do the trick. It’s annoying like the taste of coffee without sugar, yet sometimes effective like an alert.

Brownies/chocolate is sweet and soft, gives you the energy to move on, and the nice feeling of something melting softly in your mouth. I love to think I'm like that sometimes. Beneath the strong girl there lies a soft tender creature, wishes to shower everyone with love  and care. I do my best, yet most of the time i think it’s not enough.

Now, what are you??

لو انت في حاسبات

لو انت في حاسبات يبقي بتصحي من الفجرية

وتقعد طول اليوم محبوس في الكلية

من محاضرة لسكشن ومن سكشن لمحاضرة والنتيجة هي هي

محدش فاهم حاجة والعيب أكيد مش فيك ولا فيا

ولا حتي في اللغة الإنجليزية

لو انت في حاسبات

تخش المدرج تلاقي نصه فاضي

تلاقي حد قاعد فتيجه جنبه عادي

يقلك مش هاينفع اصل انا حاجزه لهادي

هادي ده صاحبي وساكن قصادي

لو انت في حاسبات

تقعد في المحاضرة تلاقي الدكتور بيكلم اول صف واللي وراه

وتلاقي حد قاعد بيلعب فيفا وواخد يجي 4 صفوف معاه

وناس مش فاهمة اي حاجة

والدكتور يسأل فاهيمن يقولوا برده اه

لو انت في حاسبات

في نص المحاضرة تنزل تاخد بريك

وترجع بسرعة عشان الدكتور مش يطلع عينيك

ولو سمع هيصة في وسط المحاضرة

يقلك مش شارح والجزء ده برده عليك

لو انت في حاسبات

علي طول موعودين 7 ايام في الاسبوع

اسيمنتات .. كويزات .. علي كام مشروع

تركز في انهي فيهم محدش عارف

وكان التركيز عندنا ممنوع

لو انت في حاسبات

تخلص يومك وتوصل بيتك علي الساعة عشرة

تكون فاتتك كل حاجة ..مسلسل .. ماتش او حتي نشرة

تفتح ايميلك مستني بشري

ان فيه بكرة محاضرة اتلغت من العشرة

لو انت في حاسبات

في النهاية انا بحب حاسبات مهما كان

لانها بقت بيتي وانا كانسان

بيحب اي مكان بيعيش فيه

حتي لو صعب وجايبله جنان

Granting Wishes Part [5]: Memories

This post is one of the wishes I'm granting –still- in response to Ibhog’s game. This post is both personal and precious. The words are meant to hold on the memories and make them last forever and ever. Some of what I'm going to mention is either published here before or on my old blog. Or they are let out to the light for the very first time.

For everyone whom i hold a good memory of, and for all the good you’ve done to me in my life, i love you and i will hold on to those great moments forever even if we are not meant to be together for the rest of our lives. So here is a little piece of my heart.  

April 2004:

She is the one who changed me !

She is the one who gave me what others couldn’t give me!

She is the one who I can’t let go!

She is my angle ! the angle that I want to fight for !

She is the one I can’t live while she is sad of me !

She is the one who made me feel alive !

She is the most wonderful one in the world !

She is my star !

She is the one I can’t see in her but a great (v.great) person !

She is an aim that is so precious and so beautiful for me to fly for !

February 2008:

This was one great year full of surprises. It was my 24th birthday. That year, mainly, we decided to celebrate it on valentine’s day. A group of girls we were. We went out all together for dinner, and we were the weird girls in the restaurant. It was occupied with couples and tons and tons of red wrapped gifts, & because i hate surprises, i planned for the day, and made the reservation of the restaurant, yet my sister and my best friend were able to trick me:). That wasn’t all, that year was one of the best because of all the surprises that were made specially to me. I might have celebrated my birthday that year for about 4 or 5 times. All about that you can find on my old blog. The post was “ze2reda’s Day!!!”

January 2009:

That was a time when Bee should have been the center of the world. It was her right to be, i tried my best, yet she has that great heart that in one moment she made my fly, she touched my heart with a simple present and marvelous words that will remain in my heart and on my laptop’s desktop forever... I talked about that before in “Thank you note”

Bee… all i can say is, I Love you “kisses”

March 2009:

Nice feelings was published earlier this year on my old blog. I dedicated it to 2 persons who meant a lot to me, and i thank them for every laugh and happy moment they give me.

First things first:
Thank you for touching my life in ways you may never know.

For a few days now i have these nice feelings about life...or lets say about some people IN my life. Persons whom i met recently and never thought that our relationship would evolve to reach the level where it is right now. They became  so close to my heart, to a degree where i let them in to some of my deepest secrets.

 
When i look back, i have those memories about how we first met, each time we remember that day, we just can't stop laughing, it's hilarious!!! that day i had that impression "first impression" that no matter what, they will be like most the people i run into through a teaching semester, and then we continue our lives like we never met.

The thing is that i HOPE deep down my heart that our relationship would never have this ending. It will really break my heart. and because this could coz dramatic change in mode i'll keep talking about my happy thoughts .

By the time that i was starting to lose faith in my friends, and actually seems that i'm starting to lose some of them one after the other. Allah has sent me 2 GREAT replacements, begad el 7amdoo lellallah that they entered my life and supported me when i really needed them by my side. These two persons are like my younger brother and sister. They care for me as much as i do for them. They have this desire that i would be happy all the time, and never face any troubles in my life...what they don't know that i feel the same for them too, and maybe more!!

All i can say is that i'm happy, just Happy to have them in my life,
Happy... Happy... Happy...

I really do love them to a level that i can read them and sense what they want to say without having them say it :) "Sosa ana yemken". I love this innocence i see in their eyes, being pure from the inside out "wish they will always remain that way".

Baby Brother and Sister, May we have this friendship going on forever and ever,  May we remain best friends all the way for the rest of our lives, May this pure love we share grow with everyday that passes by, May we always be there for each other, and  May destiny never do us apart.
Love You Both!!!

Slumdog Millionaire

This is the movie that gathered a bunch of the Oscars this year. I wasn’t going to watch it, because i already had my share of Indian movies and i don’t like them. Even the numerous number of the Oscar prizes didn’t tempt me to change my mind.

Last night, Bee and I decided to spend the night virtually together, so we agreed to watch one of the movies that we got from a friend last week. I asked her to pick one, and she went for “Slumdog Millionaire”.  I said let’s do it, and if I didn’t like it, easy i’ll quit the player and find something else to watch.

The surprising thing is that the movie grabbed my attention since it started, and the first time i took a look at the timing bar, it was like 30 mins have passed and i didn’t notice. Believe it or not it’s a two hour movie that i enjoyed soooooooo much, and time flew while watching it.

Every thing about it is great, the actors and actresses, young and old. The customs were really down to earth picturing the main characters of the story. The script is written in a very nice way. The order of how the story was told was really nice and coherent. The director “Fannaaaannnn”. It’s a recommended movie to watch. Hope you enjoy it as much as i did :)
