After I came back from the hospital earlier today, I sat down thinking how frail and weak our bodies are yet we take so much pride in how we look and flaunt ourselves forgetting that in a single moment of time everything could fall apart..

I wanted to write about this when I was going through it but I flagged the issue but then suddenly yesterday my younger sister was rushed to the hospital by an ambulance with suspicions of having the appendicitis. Mubarak hospital people of course 3ady, send her back home with pain killers which didn’t last for long so again at around 11 the family goes to Dar Al Shifa for round 2!! Man she was in bad shape! It was bad styanding there not knowing what to do hence she was adimitted for surgerey today morning after having the sonar done n’ all..

I left, slept n’ woke up a while ago and my other sister, who slept over with her told me what was going on with her and I couldn’t believe what I heard!!

[ Ovarion Cysts ] read more about it here because this effects women of all ages especially younger ones and it may vary from woman to another. In my case, when they found out I have one 3 cms of size although I got severe pain in my side I was told that if it grew bigger it would be dangerous and I might need surgery so I was advised to wait for the monthly you know what to resolve the whole issue.. so far, all is ok

Now, what shocked me about my sister is that they discovered the same thing BUT the cyst has exploded and there was internal bleeding pushing against her organs hence the pain..

I sincerely admire the human machine.. sub7an allah! Girlies, if you get the chance to go to the hospital and have a checkup don’t hesitate.. it’s not that dangerous anyways in most cases but do some researching for it may be helpful and en sha2 allah, none of you go through that

Here you go Salah, a post like you asked :) I know I’ve been neglecting this blog but I am seriously not being inspried or moved to write about anything.. It’s quite boring actually here for me.. anyways..

I’d start by talking about those first coupla days of Ramadan, I can’t believe 4 days already mashallah it’s moving along rather fast. I’ve been suffering from coffee hangovers, hence the bad headaches and sleeping like a pig most of the time, when I get the chance that is! Other than that, it’s pretty much laid back and as most of you out there, I’d also agree on the low quality boringly plotted TV shows EXCEPT Bab el 7ara (God bless the shanabat) lol ! Now I want a Syrian man! :$ <– believe me, this will change in a while !

Elmohem, I really dig the fact that I could go to office looking like a bum, sweatpants o any top! man it’s so comfortable especially when it’s so god darn bloody humid out there! OMG! Seriously! it’s suffocating! I have a tradition now, I go to work wearing this Pakistani like outfit and I love love love it! I don’t think I’d ever stop - you know when you have this item that you stick to! well.. this is how I feel about it

Now, let’s move on to something more serious.. Title of the post:

Assumptions and radical spontaneous actions… I have been in both situations where I have practised the “making an ass out of myself” as well as others doing the same. I could not but help ponder upon this issue since I am sometimes called “opinionated” or “narrow minded” which is totally fine by me because I don’t really mind it since I tend to believe that I am unique with my thoughts and personality no matter how kinky I get sometimes still, I am satisfied with what I have now which is bringing peace to me which I rarely experience.  And if you know me in person, you’d probably go like hallelujah!

I know it’s humans’ nature to interpret things / words the way they want and sometimes some of us would take action immediately without evening thinking them through and eventually leading to catastrophic results and it really depends on your relation with those individuals, if they respect you they’d take it and understand if not then what to do! I mean you can’t really impost it on them right! I am blessed being surrounded by good people who really like being around (at least that’s what i tend to think) but then I wonder when I open up my  mouth and a word slips out, why do people assume negativity and jump into conclusions  on the spot! It doesn’t make sense you know… What I love about my whole life so far is that I’ve been through tough situations where I’ve assumed and was proven wrong, other many times I’ve been totally naive and this really affected me deeply and I am a person that heals slowly..

Do you think it’s healthy to over think things and build certain thoughts to discuss and inquire about? Or would you simply take things the way they are and wait for them to unravel?! I dunno.. I may be impatient!

A bunch of us girls decided to go check the place up since the pictures on the group “Kuwait & Food” got us drooling for quite some time now! We barge in, more than 10 I think (lost count) and we tried to get a variety off the menu to take as much pictures as we can also, to get different individual feedback.

From the pics below, you might say it’s great, looks tasty.. etc, well! Some of the crepes were “ok” nothing fancy or over board while the rest complained from the soggy pancakes (I verify that).

Ok, here’s my take:

1. Prices are kind of high for this one piece of crepe! which is not satisfying at all! We have another meal afterwards! LOL

2. Place - location sucks! It’s hidden - at the back side and we had to look for it

3. THE MENU! Pls check :$

Pros. are:

1. Good service I guess - friendly staff

2. Love love loooooved the colors of the place! classy

As I mentioned above, we went to Johnny Rockets for a “light snack” HAHAHA. I only chose to upload those:

Away I know but for a valid reason, I was on a short business trip to Dubai, My first time there too. That didn’t stop me from taking pics of what ever my eyes came across. “Like a Japanese tourist” as someone called me :p

Now, want the truth!? I didn’t like it that much, maybe I didn’t go around properly since I didn’t have the time but I think we’re going soon (Mom & us girls) which would be fun I guess.. Highlight of this trip was the hotel!!

Intercontinental Festival City.. Very classy, quiet, good service and best thing is that it’s got it’s connecting mall! OMGGGG, I went crazy and I didn’t go through the whole thing although I am a shopping addict! I recommend if you can afford it DHS 2500 a night (standard room) to go stay there.

Ohh… We took one of the cats to the vet today to shave her, since it got really bad I mean her fur - hair.. This is what she looks like now >:)

Excited to go watch a “decent” thriller - horror movie, I dragged the siblings and my mother at 12:45 am AGAIN to Muhallab to watch Kiefer Sutherland’s movie Mirrors. Now, from the trailer I thought it was pretty good in comparison with previously watched movies so I ignored the pain, put on my track suit and slippers (looked like a mess) and hit the theater..

1. Movie too long! they stretched scenes and that was not cool
2. Some things didn’t make sense, like his hand was bleeding one minute, he touched his shirt no blood then the next scene he’s putting bandage and it’s still bloody! @@
3. Kiefer is not “out of his 24 character” you know! like “am the MAN” yeah! uhaa! too much pompousness!
4. Movie is similar to others when it comes to the plot!
5. The ending is dumb!

I didn’t really like it! I enjoyed 2 small sized caramel popcorn buckets though ;)

God bless the Bee Gees!

I’ve been thinking a lot today (out of the norm!!?) and instead of talking to myself in my bathroom as I always do, I again decided to post them here.. ya3ny, my kids would read this some day and go like: “OMGGG, mom was a nut case!” <-- adba7om !!

1. If Lucifer wanted to hold an event - have a party, I think he’d pick The Avenues as a venue! I went today to fight with an H&M cashier who was stupid enough to deduct 103.750 KD from my credit card to a customer after me paying with his - her KNET regular card! OMGGGGG (If you were there and you saw a shortie steaming off, it was me!) This matter needs a whole separate post just to let this anger out! Back to the Avenues, OMMGGGGG!!! Is it only me or does anyone out there feel so out of place when you walk amongst those “people - aliens” ?! I feel sooo “under dressed” and it’s not that am not comfortable with my attire, casual most of the time I mean but seriously! Why do you have to have your full make up, accessories, hair do on while shopping!?! What happened to the good ol’ “kick back n’ relax” attitude!? I don’t mind dressing up at all but girls look WEIRD! Guys even look weirder!! OMGGGG <-- can you feel me?!

2. If only evil could materialize, it would be a credit card!!! Sooo seductive and the consequences are catastrophic negative most of the time.. I hate it! I am telling you people I should have a post on NBK & H&M but I want this to resolve peacefully THEN I could bash them as much as I like :)

3. La La Land: What is lala land?!! I’ve been there since noon and Eman asked me: “how do you go there?!” . Well, My lala land is all about staying away from everyone doing things that people consider “weird” like listening to music (headset) at highest volume and dance sitting down - that’s a work! Indulge myself with a couple of ice cream bars, better if Baskin Robbins *drools*. another lala land(ish) advice is take a shower and whip up some hot cocoa and enjoy it while relaxing in bed <--- niiiiiice . Now my bestest Lala land ticket is 2 panadol nites pills! you will know what I mean when you try that.

4. Noooooor and Mohannaaad, Mooohannnnnnaaad and Nooooor OOOOMMMMMGGGGG!! I though they’d die and get this over with, lessa kel 7al2a they fight then make up (of course we don’t get to see the good stuff :p) WHEN WILL IT END!? I am happy though that the old witch Heba will be out soon! ha haaaaa

5. Guess in Kuwait, I am referring to the franchise of course. Did anyone go there during sales!! “Barbaric assholes” this is what I called them women inside the shop! It’s like doomsday and they push each other to pick up a bag or a wallet that is out of season!! I could not stand in there waiting for my sister to pay for the 4 bags they bought :$

6. [ Health Stop ], I am addicted to this place!! I almost order on daily basis and believe me, it’s light! kinda costly though but at least they count calories..

bas…

I had doubts whether KNCC will show this movie in local theaters but now it’s confirmed… NO WAY IN HELL!

I like Adam Sandler don’t get me wrong but this movie although “funny”, needs to be stashed away and never played any where.. I seriously don’t understand how they had Arab cast in that movie!!? Sarcasm 3al Arabs, religion, our food!! our values.. the way we dress “or what they think on that” !!

The Arabic profanity throughout the movie!! AHH, it’s intolerable!!! ALSO, it’s not a good movie to watch with the presence of parents ya3ny ……

No matter what the message behind this movie is, I didn’t really enjoy it

P.S: Who uses Hummus to extinguish fire?!! or as toothpaste!!

I hate hate hate how they portray Israelis as peace seekers while Arabs are retarded terrorists?!

And is there an Arabic man named “Fattoush” !?! LOOL !!
