Interesting stuff

Who's gonna pay the bill?!!

I'm not sure how this works ,but one thing I can tell u 4 sure iz :it took me a while to master the fine art of (paying the bill)
A -in my early stages I used to often get nervous while not knowing what to do exactly I find myself grapping a large bill from my purse and paying 4 the whole group( my stomach still hurt when I remember buying a family meal 4 only 2 girls((balayoo ,cadanko sure have calool wayn))

b- then I grew up a little n I started letting every1 pay 4 their own meal, makes sense .right!!,well the only problem here is that used to get over sensitive when any1 tries to pay anything for me even if it's as simple as a chocolate bar, why! Only ALLAH knows so don't ask!!

c.final stage,the only way that actually works for us, is taking turns (no one will actually admit we r doing so)but still!!! we do it anyways…!!
Ps: this way works 4 my new friends, the old ONES were greedy n maseebo(thank god I got rid if them)

Five mints:


I haven't heard from some1spceial to my heart in a long time(3 weeks),n while contemplating the possibility of me leaving that person ,or if I could live without out that person i ended up calling this special someone n it only took me five mints to remember all the love that fills m heart and I felt terrible for not being more understanding, so without sharing any of my stupid concerns with that person ,i forgave myself fo missing them so much!! b/c well,i'm only Human!!!

Qabil:


I love 2 know more about qabil, my friend's qabil, my famil MEMBERS qabil, n down to their(reer),,this started very recently I happen (to the contrary of many of my peers)to find this whole new world very exciting
, I have to mention I don't care who fought who n what happened in the past, but I find it amazing to know how ppl come together n wlc each other with love and hospitality just bc they r from the same qabil or part of the country, however, I strongly disagree with the hatred and hostility we find among certain qabils ,and I think ppl like arabs r more than proud of their own qabil,and they have all the respect in the world for other qabils ,soo when I see this example in front of my eyes ,I often wonder, why can't we be like that!?!!!!


Center of the universe:


Every1 heard how an only child is selfish, ,needy, a bit self observed t, well well,guess what I'm afraid I'm becoming that way, uhh,,I'm not an ONLY child al7amdolehhah,but my siblings r studying abroad my nd mumy nd dady(check how I say mumy instead if mum..uhh))r home alone…
I have my mum begging me(literally) to eat some more ,my dad being atypical Somali dad, shows his affection through giving me materialistic stuff ,and plenty of advice, I'm trying to fight how I become, I keep reminding myself that PEAPLE have lives, I can't expect every1 to call me all that time or I don't know have something more important to do, how many ppl do noting more than eat,sleep.go online,watch tv,n sleep some more(who)??hu!!!ok a lot of ppl..lollll..but that's beside the point, the ones I know r not that way,so I guess I should learn to live with my choices,, uhh

Danbega iyo neyada
Guilt and intention


I heard a sheikh once say that as long u don't have any bad thoughts u can watch whatever u want (I don't want to misquote him ,but I'm pretty sure that's what he meant)so last night I was watching an old Arabic movie starring layla 3elwi nd yosra where most of the scenes happen to take place IN bed,,,ok..this is soo not what u u'll r thinking ,of course there were a few kisses, but the movie was hilarious even when they were on the bed kissing or whatever I was laughing so hard cuz his other wife was under the bed trying to scare them off somehow,,,soo foolishly I tried to include my mum so we can watch the movie 2gether,GOD!!what was I thinking, all she saw was a half naked man ,n 2 women in their night gown…so u guess how the evening ended ..AXXX….anyways I watched the rerun the next Day..allll by myself..loll…soo seriously I'm wondering is what that sheikh said..correct..i sure hope so:-)

Random Thoughts

Appearance::

When you r all dressed up ready to go somewhere, and u causally ask a friend, girlll,, how do I look?!! R we honestly expecting an answer, in my case.NOO..all I'm doing is (fishing for a compliment)),,(u look great)(amazing )or perfect as my friend once told me, b/c let's get real, it's not like I can do anything about it now, what! I'm I supposed to do rush bak home put on some more eye shadow, or wear something else…AGAIN nooo..!!
Some ppl can be real annoying and specific commenting that your make up looks pink when ur top is red ,or u r wearing high heels ,when u r already tall, which makes them look even shorter, I love my friends ,I want them all to look good ,but seriously why r u telling me this Now, when u r more than aware of how sensitive I am ,and how much I don't like these comments ,of course I don't care b/c at this point all I Can do is brush it off and forget what every1 have said!!


Marriage:


Me n my friends always joke about when r we going to tell each other about us getting engaged, a week be4 that ,a month ,or when he officially t asks 4 ur hand in marriage , most of us like r pretty much like Arabs ,u don't go out with him be4 he comes to your house ,don't talk to him behind your parents back and definitely, we won't have what the westerns (plus Somalis who live abroad think is soo ok )(((DATING)!!!
U go out with some dude and maybe once in a million u'll find a catch, fall in luv ,and get married ,but the harsh reality is most of em won't take u seriously or they'll think u r easy with no family to look out 4 u,a clean reputation is the best thing a girl can hope for before she gets married …
Soo bak to my topic,my opinion was I'll tell u the moment he comes to my house and we sense that he's serious ,but my girls disagree and basically told me we'll tell u after it happens b/c if it got cancelled ,which could happen for a number of reasons ,we're gonna look BAD!!!!!(even if things didn't work out between them ,I would luv to know… be her supporting shoulder ,be there for her,nobody seems to get my point of view !!!!!
lollll,come to think of it why r we even talking about this ,MAN!! we sound desperate ,,,axxx!!!

Friends ::


I've been hanging out with my friends for the last couple of weeks ,going nice places ,trying to make plans with them ,it's not an easy task, a lot of them r busy doing their own thing ,or too busy studying (I'm with them ,but let's just say I'm not an A student ,if u know what I mean) ,Somali girls r sure hard workers.. I mean I used to be like that at some point that's why I got into college (I got a scholarship),but once I got in my battery's ran out and I'm lazier than ever,I have a B average now which I'm pretty satisfied with ,al7emdellah,,,!!
Back to my friends my new friend ZEE is soo COOL ,we r already planning to hang out more next semester since it's my final course and to go out n stuff ,I luv that. she's like me ,up to everything ,fearless ,social(I'm real shy at first ,don't know how to approach ppl but once I finally get to know them .i can't seem to shut up),besides not that I'm picky or anything but many of the girls I met I haven't liked and the best part iz Zee DOESN'T like them either ,so hey..i'm normal,it's not me ,its them..loll
Finally I really appreciate my friends and I let them know it, if u haven't been honest with the ppl u like ,then who I'm I gonna be hones with t, being away from my sisters makes me lean o them more, ,mimi.,.fee,,zee,ash,fofo,,Inshallah years from now (whether we r still in touch or not..i'll remember them all with a Smile:-)…
