Ali Mehdi - A Recital

A dear friend - someone I grew up with - passed away last June and I wrote about it here. Despite his long term illness, he was very active in the community whether it came to social work, charity or any other kind of activity that brought a smile to people's faces.

He was also a writer. A poet with 3 published books.

There will a recital happening - I heard about it on the Oman Community blog here and thought I would do my part in spreading the news.

I Would Like to Thank . . . .

Im Back

My trip was cut 2 days short. It did not go as planned. I had a 6 hour road trip back home alone last night and with a really bad flu.

Today the flu is worse and I feel like I have mucus in my brain. There is so much pressure in my head I just wanna drill and let it out.

Everytime I blow my nose, the pain gets worse. I literally feel like my eyes are popping out.

Oh yeah and icing on the cake, I got a fever too.

Amoot oo aftak moo a7san???

UPDATE: I have an ass growing on my chin.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Nesait agoolikum I met Karamilah ya7lailha shes so sweeet. 3yoonha ti5tify when she smiles or laughs. oo maskeena she had to suffer through me blowing my nose for an hour. 7ata ama 5ala9et her drink

Bubbye

I will be away for a week - Im really down and I need a break.

I will be doing a little travelling and a lot of studying (hopefully) for my upcoming exams. WISH ME LUCK ON BOTH ASPECTS

Dont miss me too much

Looking At Life Through Rose Tinted Glasses

Inzain daraina ina feeh habbat love stories oo chee. Its nice. We like to escape occasionally into a green field with little white flowers wearing a white sundress and curly long hair flowing in the light breeze with a huge smile on our faces and we are running towards our knight in shining armour in his khaki pants and white linen shirt with buttons open to his waist showing off his perfect 6 pack and blah blah blah. I guess you got the picture.

But i wanna see some more realistic stories. Such as Tigerlilly's story about the Kuwaity drug dealer / drug addict. I still havent come across another more realistic story.

I was discussing this with a good friend earlier today where she said she is only interested in happy ending stories.

La ana maby. Aby achoof salfat ily 5e6ab wa7da bint rfeejat umah laneh shes cute and has grey eyes. Oo ba3d il3rs wila honeymoon yridoon ildeera wehwa 24/7 either fil dawam wila wiya ilshabab. yrid ilbait min ildawam yuba il'3ada jahiz. Itha ma 3ajbah il akil yzifha. oo ba3ad 6 months ygooleha howa msafir Thailand wiya ilshabab. B3ad sintain 3indeh girlfriend libnaniya wila ma'3ribiya wa7da cool oo free. Ba3ad 5ams sneen yitzawaj 3alaiha bil sir oo she finds out laman wa7da 7aqda ityee tgooleha "ooohhh sema3t murt raylich / kanitich 7amil - wayid 7alyana mashallah 3alaiha". g6ee3a nas ma yista7oon.

Ooo aba achoof wa7da tiktib story mal wa7da oo wa7id m9a7been 9arli7um 3ashr sneen oo tezawijaw oo lama heya 7malat oo matnat 9ar ma y6eeg shakilha oo 6alagha ba3ad ilwilada 3ala 6ool.

Oo ilhabba ilyideeda mal yaz3am reyayeel yitzawajoon wa7da '3aniya (mabda2 sakany tejari) 3ashan ehwa ydawim 3ala ra7teh fi sharikat ubooha oo ehya ta9rif 3alaih.

Oo sowalif wa7da ba3ad ma titzawaj she finds out ineh hes a drug addict / player / sex freak / doesnt ever shower / eats his nose pickings / was born a woman / getting a little too Jerry Springer arent we?? Bas come on. This stuff happens.

Oh yeah I just remembered one of the story blogs ily she married a guy ily gam yid5al ilbait sakran jayib wiyah wa7da oo ygoom yadri6ha min il7ijra to get it on. Oo laman ta6lib il6alag oo y6aligha trid bait ubooha oo being labelled as a divorced woman ubooha miftishil oo y3amilha zbala which pushes her into the arms of the wrong man who rapes her. THIS IS REALITY PEOPLE.

I always say the following:
1. I would rather be a divorced woman and be labelled as a divorced woman (since its such a shameful label) than be the women ily rayilha y3amilha chanha ilbishkara wila y5oonha yameen oo yasar jidam il3alam wil 5alg
2. I would rather be a 3anis (I LOVE THIS WORD) if it means I have control over my own life and actions and I do not have to be the obediant wife to an asshole who reports to Mommy about his wife's sexual acts (true story - i have a friend whos ex-husband was asking Mommy for advice about his sex life)
3. I would rather be given any label on this earth if it means ineh '6ameery 9afy oo adri iny ma athait 7ad oo ma '3ala6t fee 7ag a7ad

Do people not know mabda2 il zawaj nu9 ileeman?? Ma sema3tu "ilrayil ma ykamil deenah ila ba3ad ilzawaj"?? ay ykamil ay ba6ee5?? ma achoof ana ila ilbalaway.

Do I want to get married?? HELL YEAH.
What are the reasons?? I want kids bil7alal. FULLSTOP.

The only man I trust in this world is my father. I would love to have a fairy tale ending same as any girl with blood running through her veins. But I still always beleive that ilrayyal ma mineh 2aman. His loyalties will always lie with their own flesh and blood. And for some reason they do not beleive that when you marry a woman she becomes your flesh and blood. Mako al7een rayyal y9oon murteh. La2 ma achoof ana ila the woman becomes a punching bag to be blamed for everything under the sun.

I beleive that is why God made women stronger. Qudrat ilta7amul 3indhum akbar. Thats why women are the ones that get pregnant. Have period pains. Go through labour. And the men faint in the delivery rooms. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Inshallah I find that one person that God made perfectly right for me. Inshallah. Maybe I already found him and he slipped away. I am not delusional. There is no perfect man / woman. But there IS the perfect man / woman for everyone.

Just realised this was basically just my thoughts and I dont know what the hell I am aiming at. Sorry guys - this is who I am. Live with it wila click on the little red cross on the corner of the screen.

I have a lot of love to give, I just havent found the person that I feel I can give it to. I have realised that when in love people tend to ignore the bad points and only see the good things. Then there is a point where one bad thing will make you forget ALL the good things. Its a bad trait but I beleive this is a HUGE indication.

When a girl suddenly sees the guy in a different light, that means that she has snapped out of the bubble she was living in. I admire all strong women who have the courage to admit that they made a mistake and its better to be labelled than to go through with it. I beleive its a bigger mistake to carry on then admit defeat and walk away. I know some people might see it as cowardly but i do not. Bil3aks I beleive this is the brave thing to do. Sticking with a bad marriage and using the kids as an excuse is not the right thing to do. How do you think the kids will grow up and view life seeing their disfunctional parents in their daily life. So if there are no kids GET THE FUCK OUT.

I guess I am going through this emotional turmoil since there are a lot of VERY strong women around me these days that are going through marriage related crisises (is that the right word??). Ilmuhim - these women got the point of considering divorce. I always vote for divorce. ALWAYS.

I look at my past relationships and I realise that the one true love (or so i thought) that I had, I look at him now with complete i7tiqar and disrespect. I always think to myself "what the hell was i doing with him - this is someone i almost married!!!!". Even though the duration of our relationship was complete bliss but you really dont know someone until you live with them. Im glad I found out what they really are like BEFORE living with them. God - I think allah salamany min hal mu9eeba that almost happened.

Yes I am in a relationship right now but this time and for the first time in my life, I am going through the relationship thinking with my head and NOT with my emotions. So far so good. I am grown up and mature enough to accept my decisions and accept the consequences.

I am proud of who I am. I am proud of the woman i have become. I am proud of the way my parents raised me. Even though that the majority of my life I always beleived my parents should divorce. They made the difficult decision to stick together for the kids. Yet I am proud of who they are and what they have made of us.

I am the youngest of four children and I am also the last in our household to acheive the masters. Can you imagine how intimidating it is for anyone?? I have heard it with my own ears how women tell my mother that her daughters are over-educated which is why their sons that might be interested are backing off.

I just think of these men as cowards. Not that I am interested in any of them but the whole concept behind it. Instead of marrying into a good educated family and being proud that either me or my sister accepted them, they run away. I know it might sound big headed but I dont care. This is truly how I feel.

I can go on forever but I think I will stop here. Maybe continue in another post in a few days. Lets see how it goes.

Asshole of the Month

A follow-up to my previous post regarding looser people who have nothing better to do here, I am still in the process of considering whether I should go private or not. Pretty much I have decided that I will NOT be going private anymore. Im still gonna give it until the end of the week and see how I feel about it and if I do go private it will be for myself.



A special thanks goes to my regular readers - I honestly didnt think I had that many. Love you all.



I have decided that I will be launching a monthly prize for asshole of the month. Of course, needless to say, these assholes are almost always anonymous since they are too chicken shit to show their faces. So starting this month, I will be announcing the Asshole of the Month prize with a breif description. Here goes.

___________________________________________________________________

Asshole of the Month: March 2009

XXXX

See I have a chatbox that I almost always forget about thats why there is not much activity there. In most cases, I reply to people at least a few days late. So yesterday it caught my attention as I had some recent activity. (Pictured above). This is how the "conversation" went.

10 Mar 09, 03:21

XXXX: I don't like u

10 Mar 09, 03:40

XXXX: FYI your life is no rollercoaster. wala 7ata sham ree7at Mara7 Land. Your life is super regular.. just like plain yogurt. if not more bland. =) (hhmmm took you a whole extra 19 minutes to come up with that one???)

10 Mar 09, 15:00

3anooda: XXXX - LOOOL nice to know - respect ur opinions hahahaha dont like me i dont think im loosing much

10 Mar 09, 16:44

XXXX: okay =) fine by me too! and it's *losing fyi (im flattered that you responded less than 2 hours after my reply - looks like ur a regular on my blog)

Now the question is LAISH?? shistifad this person from this conversation exactly?? That is why I am awarding the title of Asshole of the Month to this person. Cos they obviously had too much time on their hands are trying to show off a little muscle. So XXXX, now you can boast about having a post dedicated to you. Thank you for revisiting my blog.

PS. Mara7 Land is a lame ass amusement park thing we have here in Oman mainly for kids

A Message to Fucked Up People

Dear Assholes,

Yes, feel proud that there is a post dedicated to you. Yes you have managed to stir me up and make me speak out my mind write about you. But your joy is not to be long lived.

I just want to bring your pea-headed brains to send a message to your eyes to get them to open up and see around you. You might be living a sheltered life or pretending to people around you that you are living a sheltered life. Or perhaps you just want to give people the impression that your holier than thou exterior is who you truly are but darlings, we aint fools. We see right through you.

Back on track, open up your eyes and look at society for what it truly is. Just because you might not do drugs, drink, smoke or have sex doesnt mean that others dont. Actually I bet most of you do all or some of those things but under cover. If not consistantly then you have at least at some point in time. So stop being the fucking hypocrites that you are and leave people alone. Just like nobody said anything to you because they had the decency to leave you alone since you were not hurting them, you should also have the decency to leave people alone since they are not hurting you either.

So for those assholes that attacked bloggers like Jara7, love;**, starr;** and other creative bloggers that are using this place as a means of release for their creative juices, get the fuck out. Yes you know who you are. And I know that I will get a barrage of assaults from you guys pretty soon, that is IF you have the balls to say anything to me. But I am ready for you.

Throughout my life, experiences and travels, I have been subjected to a plethora of useless characters such as yourselves. The similiarities between you and human beings is purely coincidental. God have places characters such as yourselves to test other people and perhaps I have miserably failed this test, I am ra'6ya ib who I am and I am happy. I sleep very well at night knowing that I did not hurt anybody intentionally. Therefore I am a good person.

People WAKE THE FUCK UP. We live in a very hypocritical arab / 5aleeji society that basically thrives on putting everyone around them down just so that they APPEAR to rise above everyone else. Stressing on the APPEAR cos you fuckers arent fooling everyone. People might seem like they are laughing with you but in true effect they are laughing behind your back. AT YOU.

For your information, the nicest, most sincere and genuine people I have met be them Kuwaities, Saudies, Qataries, Emaraties, etc are all what you assholes would call fasqeen or other such derogatory terms. Kil wa7id 7isabeh wiya rabeh oo intu ma bit7a9loon any kind of gate pass to ilJanna if you speak badly about these people. Cos honestly what I would call fasqeen are those mua7ajabat who wear tighter than skin clothes oo yama ta7t il sawahy dawahy.

Do not misunderstand, I am not excluding my own people from this bil3aks. These are ahal balady and I know them more than anyone. Five years ago a girl would get harrassed if she was walking in a mall wearing jeans and a top (i.e. what fuckers usually refer to as "free girls"). Now the girls that get harrassed are those that wear shaila and 3abaya. Do you know why?? I will leave u with that thought.

Actually you know what?? You pea-brains cannot fathom the concept of thinking therefore I will give it you straight up. And my source are the men of these society. The ones that have and continue to try and test this theory.

The guys will NOT get anything from the "free" girls.
The guys will get quickies and BJs and "rear-end sex" (because the girl does not want to loose her virginity) from the shaila 3abaya girls.

I know I know before anyone goes into a rant about generalising, I am not - there are girls that completely respect the 7ijab and completely respect other people for their choices and those are the kinds of people that i befriend. Yes i am what you will call a "free girl" but trust me, and i know this because of what people tell me, i am described as much better than half the mu7ajababes in this society.

I beg of you morons that can barely read words that are more than 3 syllables wrong. Keep that mind open. People write stories. They are fiction. Check out the definition of fiction on wikipedia or any other "reliable" source that you see fit.

The funny thing is that for some reason, you idiots will attack your own people for being honest, creative, gutsy about talking about a tabooed topic or anything that you consider "not yourselves" but would go trottling off to Amrika oo Landan every chance you get cos you think its cool!!!!

Grow up - yes I know you will say ana fa'6ya for writing all this and whatever. Well sometimes I feel I need to make time to bring your attention to some things. Even though I know for a fact that it will go straight over your heads.

Over and out,
3aneeda

P.S. If you got insulted by this message that means you are someone who was described here. If you didnt then "you safe ma peepo"

Kil wa7id y3arif nafseh

P.P.S. Im going private - send me your emails if you want to continue with my journey

I need Advice

Ok guys I put up a poll cos this is an issue that has been on my mind a lot lately. I have asked friends but im getting very mixed emotions.



Basically I am seeing someone. Everything is going fine - distance is an issue but were ok about that.



Recently I got a marriage proposal. One of those random family set up things. His mom contacted my aunt and apparently he saw me in a wedding and asked about me blah blah blah. Except that is not the story at all.



Now the family is putting pressure on me to accept and I am refusing. When they mentioned the name and they saw my reaction, they are now insisting that I give them a reason. I cannot tell them what the reason is since it involves another family friend and basically this guy was her bf for a long time and as far as I know she still loves him.



I have this policy that basically the people off limits are an ex's friends and a friend's exes.



Anyways so my current beau, despite the fact that I am very attached to him is not the reason I am rejecting this person. If it was someone else, I would have considered it.



So this is not the first proposal I got this way but this is the first time that I am getting A LOT of pressure to accept. Usually by this time, the issue would have been over and not mentioned again and everything gone back to normal. Now Im getting the whole "you are 28 oo bit3ansy" speeches.



Should I tell the beau about this issue?? Please comment with your opinions and elaborate your points. I really need to see different sides of the issue that I may be missing. Generally what I have gotten from my friends is basically the single ones in my age group say no dont tell and the younger age group and the married friends are telling me that I should.

1. Yes because we are supposed to be sharing everything and he should know that something this big is happening in my life


2. No because I dont want him to think its one of those games that girls play to put pressure on them to propose to them (7arakat ga3da agoolik 3ashan min sibaq libaq)

Tagged By The Karamil Lady

I have been tagged by Karamilah a while back and I completely forgot about it. I just came across it so i decided to do it since im nowhere near sleepy and its still early.
