Ramadhan .. Month of....?

and here comes another year .. Ramadhan is only days far from us ...

Ramadhan is the month which we all should get closer to god , ask him for his forgivness and pray to him ..

we fast from the sun rise till the sun down ..

BUT

it seems that this concept has changed now days to turn into a month of entertaining and wasting in food ..

advertisements started ! all hypermarkets are now putting their products on sales and promotions .. all FOOD !!

all kind of deserts and all kind of food people tend to have in Ramadhan ..

so now in ramadhan people cook even MORE than they usually cook everyday .. aLOT Of food thats even more than what they need maybe ..

yesterday I was in the hyper market in city centre and I was amaazed with the croud ! and amazed with what i saw in the trollies as I walked .. loads of Jelly , Castered , Rice , (Loqaymat) , and all these deserts and everyting ...

another thing is TV !!! yuppp its RaMaDhAn ! wOhO letS stArT bRoaDcAsTIng all these silly movies , and khalijy serials all day long and all night long ,, one after the other ! so instead of broadcasting programmes that are actually related to the holiness of ramdhan they just tend to waste our time by these programmes

so now people tend to sleep most of the day , wake up , eat and start watching tv and eating the whole time , maybe they'll go to the ( Jalsat) in the (5yam ) (tents)which hotels and resturants set SEPCIALLY for this so-called- HOLY month

so now tell me .. what do u think? is it really RAMADHAN which is comming in two weeks? or is it just a month of entertaining thats called so

moment of desperation

yup !! time was up !! before I get to finish registering for my classes :( !!!!
I was late coz the I had to take some signatures from some doctors and a stamp of approval from the administration of the college and they were all out for their lunch break :(

now Im starting on saturday ... I have lectures ( supposed to be) but Im still not registered for a damn thing :\ ...
LOL while sitting there i thought no one is seeing me coz the place was empty
but i never learn that the chance of someone is watching u is proportional with the stupidity of ur actions ..... aaaaaand a friend of mine saw me ! (eh !)

this is while I was waiting for them finish their lunch break and come back ... I was hungry too but all the food was finished in the shop near my college so ended up eating chocolates

the BlueTooth attack !

Bluetooth is an industrial specification for wireless personal area networks (PANs). Bluetooth provides a way to connect and exchange information between devices such as mobile phones, laptops, PCs, printers, digital cameras, and video game consoles over a secure, globally unlicensed short-range radio frequency. The Bluetooth specifications are developed and licensed by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group.

source ( wikipedia)...

right now .. Bluetooth has turned into an easy tool for those insane people to try to track down girls or to send viruses or to send porn files ( pictures-videos -etc) or even to take pictures of u while u don't know and send it to u !
its starting to get annoying when u sit in public peacefully and suddenly u start getting these request to accept bluetooth files from weird names .. I really hate it !

the other day I was sitting in a lecture in the university when I received a bluetooth request ! that was just too much ! if i was in a mall or something I may excuse him for his stupidity ! but in a LECTURE??

I really hate it how people are using all these technologies in the wrong way and for the wrong purposes..

racism in our lives ... the game is not over

I was googling for a picture that suits this subject in google and was amazed to find this picture .. I remember it VERY VERY well .. when I saw it I flashed back to when I was in Italy .. I saw it in the train station ,, Didn't understand what was it about coz the writings were in Italian but thought it was about racism and I Was right...
when ever we hear this word the first thing comes to our mind is Black and White.. Some people will think that its just an old concept that vanished from this world years back .. some people will think that its still there but perhaps not in OUR societies ..

my point of view is a little bit different and I think that there are some people around that share the same opinion with me ..

I find some people VERY racist .. I see people kept in levels due to their last names or to their Sect ( math'hab) or to their old roots ..

though we all are from the same country with the same passport now , though we all follow one religion and one god ..

but they stil get treated diffrently ..they can hardly merry from each other , and they keep on annoying them sometimes , sometimes people dont talk to them at all just because of that ..

sometimes they get labeled with some stuff just because they come from this place or this family . even if they dont know anything about that person...

dont u find that very racist ? coz I personally do !

a friend who will always support you

I can call it the greatest gift god can ever send u from heaven ..really .. having a great friend that will always support u , always be there for u , always make sure you are capable to deal with whats going on in ur life .. thats just a gift ,,, unfortunately not everyone get this gift .. but whoever does should really keep it and thank god for it.
I thank god everyday for the great people I have around me . some of them are just so caring that they'll keep talking to me on phone for hours and txt me the whole time just to make sure Im alright .. even if there was nothing serious going on , sometimes just to entertain me when Im alone and bored .
I just cant thank them enough for all they do to me ..
I may have just a few friends ,, but they really worth the world to me

(especially dedicated to my good friend superglue )

amazingly parked XD

well done dad!
that was in dubai
will share more pictures of the car parked under the wall soon XD

simple but yet amazing

its so amazing how simple stuff in life can really affect u amazingly , to me , just having a friend talking to me makes me feel awesome and really straight up my mood .. sometimes , just a smile would be more than enough .. if this friend really means it , then a smile or just a ( take it easy) or a hug speaks for a thousand words..
I remember once I was somewhere and I was really pressured by alot of things but I was keepin it hidden as usual behind a fake smile .. then suddenly something happened and I started to cry in public infront of everyone .. when I was leaving the place i was walking alone and it was obviouse that I was crying with my face all pink and my eyes full of tears and everything .. mostely ppl were just staring in a way that makes u feel worse . while I was walking I lifted up my face and I saw this guy infront of me who gave me this really nice look with a lil bit of sympathy and smiled gently , its like he was telling me to take it easy , its gonna b all fine no matter what it is .. that one thing really made me feel better and helped me carry on..
another one is this , i once was sitting in my room crying .. then suddenly my lil neice openes the door on me ,, she was 2 years at the time and speaking no arabic .. she came to me and she was like : why are you sad? ( i told her Im not) but she insisted :but you are crying!then she started trying to make me feel better and told me : its okayy dont cryy, with her lil cute voice and adorable childesh canadian accent ,, that was so cute of her she really made me smile after all

and this is how it is , as long u mean being there for others , no matter how simple what u do is , they'll feel it and maybe just coz u tried helping they'll feel better ...

LOL so today i happened to meet up with my university class ( all the students who are accepted this year with me in my same college) . so we are 450 students ,,, 350 males and 100 girls only :S !!! I dont know why most girls wouldnt prefer studying engineering .. how ever .. It was a meeting in a lectures room so I took a look a fast glance to my right side ( as I was the last girl sitting before guys ( yea guys on side and girls on other side btw XD) and saw that guys were there are from each and every kind ( nerds , out going , quiet , loud and all) then took a LONG LONG lOOK at the girls and oh-no ! thats NOT what i wanna see ! all super serious nerds who will never talk to u :S so hard to get along with :| ! they'll all seem to be serious but I"LL SHOW THEM !Im planning to change them XD LOL .. really ,, when they see u out going and all they start opening up a lil and loosing up ! and its so hard to stay that serious for 5 years :S if they like it then sorry i dont! yup Im not planning to deal with super serious girls for the next 5 years :S !... after all I know a few cool girls ,, 2 only XD Im the third , the 4th is mmm what i call ( plus , minus) .. what i liked about my college is that most of the rooms are more like a garage or in another word , work shop..

I SO LOVE PRACTICAL work ! love it love it love it so I think I'll have so much fun .. :D

new roads in your life...

today while I was walking alone in this huge place with weird paths that all look the same I started choosing the way i take randomly and see where are they gonna take me .. it was kinda fun to be honest and I eventually reached where ever I wanna go but it made me think of real life and the choices we take in real life .. how do we actually decide wheather if we should something or not? u never know what are the advantages and dissadvantages unless u do the thing in mind and see your self... the HARDEST is when u have to decide , should u follow your brain or your heart? mostely following ur brain is the right thing to do ,, but how many one us actually do that? I personally find it hard to let my mind think for me XD I just do what I love to do and what I want to do , but yea sometimes my brain DOES win and thats a good thing XD..I say we should think really hard before we walk in the paths we choose , we have to sneek at whats at the end of that path.. and decide ..after all we MUST take a decision and we do ,, every day , every minute , what to wear , what to eat , what to study , go out with ur friends or with ur family or just hang around and read a book at home? those are the simple choices we get to take and whatever it is that we choose it wont really affect us or change our lives for good as much as other choices we take .. after all this is life :) so yea , think wisely before choosing a path and try to let ur heart and brain think in the same rythme together .. coz "happiness is when what you think , what you say , and what you do are in harmony " - Mahatma Gandhi

Am I pretty enough..??

copied from os .. by joker milani
----------------------------------------------------------------
Am I pretty enough..??
Every girl thinks they arent pretty enough and they do this. Girl: Hi. Boy: Umm... hi. Girl: I have to tell you something... Boy: What? Girl: I really like you. And I... I think I'm falling in love with you. Boy: Ok... Girl: What do you mean "ok"? Boy: I don't like you like that... Girl: Why not? Boy: I can't tell you... maybe another time... From then on, the girl kept asking the boy "Why not?" whenever she saw him, and he kept answering the same answer of "I'll tell you later." Finally the girl got fed up. Girl: I'm tired of this! Tell me why you don't like me! Boy: Do you really wanna know why? Girl: Yes! Boy: It's because you're not pretty! What's the point of going out with someone when they're not pretty?! Girl: But... I... Boy: Just shut up and leave me alone! The boy leaves and the girl is sitting there alone, crying her heart out. Then her cell phone rings. Girl: Hello? Mom: Sweetheart? I want you to go home, ok? I'll be home from work in a few hours. Girl: Alright Mom. Mom: I love you. Girl: I love you too, Mom. Mom: Bye Bye. Girl: Bye The girl heads home and once she got there, she went in the bathroom and looked at herself in the miror. Girl: I'm not pretty enough... She set to work, knowing fully well what she was going to do. 2 hours later, her Mom came home and heard the bath water running. She went upstairs to find the hallway flooded so she knocked on the door. Mom: Honey? Are you alright? She opened the door and was shocked at the site. The bath was overflowing onto the floor and the water was tinted red. She walked over to see what was inside and screamed. There, her little girl was lying with cuts all over her face and wrists. Her Mom backed away and was going to run to call the police when something caught her eye. On the miror, a piece of paper was taped up. "Am I Pretty Enough Now?"....

----------------------------------------------------------------
My Review:
I think that every one in this world IS pretty enough , but mostely they wont recognize that they are ,, if everyone took the time to see the beauty they have and if everyone started to BELIEVE that they are ,,, this feeling WILL reflect on them in the out side and everyone will see how pretty they are .. sometimes I find people SO VERY beautiful! I love their features even if they werent that pretty to other people but I find them amazing ,, and when I think about it i realize that the main reason is that I saw their inner beauty reflects to their out side ..
so lets all take the time and look to whats inside us , believe in our selves and start making this world a more beautiful place to live in :)

your poems .. inspired by?

when we write a poem there must be something that inspired us to write it.. most people get inspired by past events that happened to them.. some people ( like me ) get inspired by movies or music or past events that happened to other people and they lived to c it ... which i find really weird .. so most people when they read what I write feel sorry for me and think that I really lived those events before and thats why I wrote these poems but the truth is that I didnt XD !!! all my poems were inspired by songs ( coz I listen to songs the whole time XD) for example .. the reflecion on the mirror ( posted here) i was inspired to write it by britney spears song ( girl in the mirror ) ..

after all ,, no matter what inspired us to write what we write , if we feel that we can do it , then we should ,, god gives his gifts and talents to us and its our job to preserve this talent , to improve it , and to share it with everyone around us :) !

ring tones???

Im just sitting over here .. and Im listening to all these weird and diffrent ringtones everynow and then ... lots of mobiles ringing , lots of messeges and lots of calls .. Im starting to wonder is it apropiate to use these tones in such educational institute? its a place to study after all? and they are just so annoying ! some weIRD stuff for gods sake!
yea ppl have diffrent tastes I know ,, but ... still .. they shouldnt use such loud and noisy stuff ESEPCIALLY NOT HERE :S !Im hating it and I've learned my lesson XD I'll try to change my ringtones to something really formal while Im here .. at least while Im a library or a lab ....
I think that each one over here have his own stuff to work on and those ringtones are so disturbing ... ppl should start to respect that .. I personally wouldnt want to get disturbed while Im studying ESEPCIALLY not by a silly ringtone ... ( sharp voice of an indian woman singing or some really really HARD GOTHIC ROCK )

I DONT BELONG HERE!!!

yea well .. yea I know its my first day over here ! but I still cant take it ! i just dont belong here ! Im hating it so much ! ( btw Im taking about my first day in my new higher education institute ) .. it just ,,, ah i dont know ~!! o hot?? so sunny? and I just vcant stand this place at all ! nor the people ! maybe i just didnt bled well and I should give it a few more days .. but so far Im so not doing well ! I keep on gettng lost and lost over and over again and walk for long time to find my self SOMEWHERE ELSE ! I dont know .. but is it too late to pull off? I just dont wanna continue studyin here ! its cool yea ...the name of it is soo cool ! but its so much more than what I can stand ! at the moment I just thank god I wasnt accepted n a scholarship out side coz its all already hard while Im with my family and i call them every 10 secs ask them where to go and what to do !!!!! ... one good thing is that I found a music room ! yea ... when I asked my sister about it she told me that its closed and no one can get access to it ... (turned into a store perphaps) she said .. I was walking and saw the sign and had this devilesh though of giving it a chance and see whats gonna happen so I followed the signs but i ended up in offices which are meant for males student to go :S !!! how ever it was the right place but seeing a girl over there was just un expected ... I talked to the one in charge and told him that I studied music and everything and he gave me the room keys and he was so glad to do that and excited ! even before I start talking or anything .. I truley wonder why :S !
anyhow i was ABOUT to break down from everything around me but thank god he opened the music room and told me that its okay to play and I can take my time there ... it was a nice warm shullter at that moment .. yea .. thats where i belong .. one big room with red carpet ... 2 up righted grand pianos and another 2 grand pianos .. guitars everywhere all over the place on the ground and on the pianos themselves .. it seems that omanis definition of music is just guitar ..... it was dusty a lil ,, all the pianos were out of tune but I felt comfortable in that place .. I stayed there for a while , played a lil then decided that its time to leave this warm place and continue .. yea ,, after all we cant stay in our comfert zone forever ... and that room happenes to b my comfort zone in this place... i'll be going there more often when ever I have a bad time over here .. I seriously dont plan to make any friends and socialize I just wanna stay alone for this five comming years and enjoy m self alone .. take care of my self and depend on my own ... yea .. I wanna getgood grades and end up graduating .. Major of achitecture engineering and a minor of interior designing ...

I really hope that I gave a good idea about my self to the music manager coz I was already in a bad mood but I tried my best .. hopefully they'll have some activities and Im planning to join the music ad art group over here .. maybe teach some basics and learn some new stuff from whos better than me ...

aHhhh I love this blog now I feel a lil bit better :) !

life of a grade 12 student

really.. grade 12 ? just the sound of it ,, its like a nightmare to any school student .. its ur final year .. it decides ur whole life ! it decides how u'll live , what u'll do and how will others look at you ... how much you got in grade 12 ? this question ! u'll be asked alot !!!
I was in my G 12 the last year ! and I thank god Im dont with it .. it was one of my biggest fears ..so here I am sharing my experince with u...
it was really stressfull and a (life-on-the-run) life style for almost 10 months and no matter how much you study u still feel that u didnt study enough ! I took tutors in (maths, physics, chemistry ,biology ) and a revision tutors in arabic as well .. my tutor teachers were really so good while my school teachers were just hardworkers ..even though it was hard .. I dont know HOW DID I MANAGE TO ENJOY MY SELF THEN! I really did go out every weekend (Even during the finals ) and hang out with friends and stayed in touch with them .. I managed to gain weight too which i find a very bad thing XD.. one of the best things I had this year and which kept me feeling good all the time was having GREAT friends around me all the time..
me and my best friend always managed to keep things FUN .. here are some pictures from my books:
