Don’t ever try to be someone you’re not. People will see through you right away. To have the best attitude, be true to yourself.

                                                                 Maioush :)

That’s right, the secret to having a great attitude is to be yourself and be happy with who you are. It doesn’t matter what you look like or where your strengths lie.

Do you remember that Christina Aguilera song? The one that goes, “I am beautiful, no matter what they say, no words can bring me down”? Well, our Christina may not always be number one in fashion, but when it comes to attitude, she’s right on.
The more we recognize our greatness, the more wonderful we become. Obviously, you don’t want to get carried away and get a swelled head, but you don’t have to be an arrogant show-off to feel good about yourself.

TIPS FOR FEELING GOOD ABOUT YOURSELF. . . ALWAYS!!!

• Value your friends and family and they will value you.

• Care less about what other people think.
• Do things or wear things that make YOU happy
• Look at the good things in your life. Look at the good things in you.

 so you think you can dance?? Yalla :D

people this so nice, I downloaded the CD last week, and it was the first song I listened to, I was in the car o ya 7abeeeeeebi, I started dancing IN THE CAR :D, it’s just too (7afleh),  it’s my favorite on Khaled Seleem’s new CD.

So here you go, now before you watch, the clip is lame, and the girl’s skirt can’t get any shorter, but who cares, the song is cool :) … yalla, brand new song … ENJOOOOOOOOOOOY!! :D

 You really care about them, in away nobody can imagine, do you tell them when you’re hurt? Do you tell them that they hurt you by some of the things they said or did? Or do you keep convincing yourself that they didn’t mean to? i mean people never hurt each other on purpose, right?

You know that talking to other people will never be the answer, and talking to them about it will cause another problem, they are not the type who talk things out, you know they are really sensitive, and every word you say counts, do you wanna hurt the people you care about, who would like to hurt their friends, family, and the people they care about just to let things out?

Over the years I learned not to explode over things, but sometimes I feel like chocking if I don’t talk, it’s like a big huge fat mountain on my chest, but at the same time, I don’t wanna say something I know I will regret, especially when I really care about them.

::sigh:: sometimes I wish life was less complicated…

 Have a seat…relax…and read this slowly.

1. I believe – That we don’t have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

2. I believe – That no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you every once in a while and, you must forgive them for that.

3. I believe – That true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

4. I believe – That you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.

5. I believe – That it’s taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.

6. I believe – That you can keep going long after you can’t.

7. I believe – That either you control your attitude or it controls you.

8. I believe – That sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel.

9. I believe – That just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to, doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have.

10. I believe – That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays have passed.

11. I believe – That it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

12. I believe – That our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.

13. I believe – That just because two people argue, it doesn’t mean they don’t love each other, and just because they don’t argue, it doesn’t mean they do.

14. I believe – That two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.

15. I believe – That even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you – you will find the strength to help.

16. I believe – That credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

 It’s Wednesday morning, first day of Eid, I’m suppose to be celebrating with my family, they are ALL off today, they went to Eid prayer earlier, and where am I?? AT WORK!!!

I’ve been chatting with my friends in Jordan and they all said it’s boring in Jordan too, bs they also said that they are positive that it’s not as boring as here.

I wish I took the day off, but with the new job and everything, it’s really bad to take days off on your third week, so I decided to be a good employee and come to work while my family are celebrating Eid without me, I’m sure they will miss me ;) or maybe not.

I was thinking of celebrating after work, but here is the thing, I leave her @ 6pm and by the time I get home it will be 7:30pm (yeah I drive for an hour and a half every day, the traffic is just so bad), that leaves no time to do anything, so I guess I’ll just take a shower, watch bones, and go to sleep, that’s about it, fun ha??

Any way… Happy Eid my friends, wish you all a wonderful time with your family and loves ones inshalla :D

I’ll go back to work now.. let me know how is your Eid going though :)

 I miss your voice

Which always spoke so softly in my ear

Letting me know you cared about my day.

I miss your laughter

So quick and unbridled.

It warmed the center of my heart.

I miss your thoughts

That were freely shared

At the end of our day.

Your name comes to my mind bringing

Visions of yellow roses and white vases.

Long talks on the phone.

A friendship I will never end.

A love that I believed will never die.

Here I am standing

And I miss you

 I haven’t done this since like forever, today I went out with the girl and I tell ya people; it was amazing!!! :D

Menna is leaving us to NY at the end of this month, so we decided to spend the day out to a places we never visited before, and the choices were AMAZING!!! :D

We went for lunch to have SHAWERMA, oh my god I’ve been craving for shawerma for a loooooooong time, and it was SOOOOOOOO YUMMYYY!! :)

we found out about it 2 weeks ago :)

Menna’s Plate, I don’t wanna plate, beddi Shawermaaaaaaaa sandwich!!

YUM YUM , he is making my sandwich :)

YAAAAAAAAAY!! 

Look how much I paid for my shawerma sandwich! $6??? 10 times the price in Jordan :S

Yara being princess “Arfaneh” LOL! she has the “7ello 3anni” tag on her forehead :D

After eating so much food, and feeling SOOOOOOOOOOO full (o shawerma kaman), we decided to go to downtown Disneyland, it’s like small Disneyland, no rides or anything, but you walk in this amazing city, full of lights and Disney characters, I don’t remember when was the last time I had so much fun like this.

We ran after each other like bunch of kids, we danced we sang, we wore all kind of hats over there :D , we looks hilarious HAHAHAHA people were looking at us, but WHO CARES! I wanna have fun :D

The 3 of us wearing silly hats :D

Me being silly :D LOL!

I believe I can fly LOL! :D

Our way back was so much fun as well, i listened to a song I’ve never heard before, a very nawareyeh song :D , the weird part, Fatina and Menna were singing along, and i was laughing so bad at them, i have no clue who was singing, and I don’t think it’s Nicole Saba as Fatina Claims, so if you ever heard it before let me know who is singing.

OH and the one is “Za’3reting” is Fatina, she is completely KOKO :D

Now you have to watch this video :D , Yara was singing along with Eline Khalaf, for those who don’t know Yara; she is Fatina’s daughter, she is 3 years old but doesnt talk yet for some reason, her mom took her to so many specialists, they all said that there is nothing wrong with her, she is just SHY! but look at her here singing the song.. she was soooooooo cute :)

The “half empty” means you’re pessimistic analogy has always been a mystery to me. Yeah, I get the analogy, but I think we’re looking at the wrong side of the glass sometimes. Why focus on what’s already in the container when there is so much empty space to fill? The empty space is the exciting part. It means that there is freedom to create and do and be. It’s space. It’s room to breathe. I like the empty part of the glass. To me the glass will always be half-empty. In fact, I’m usually looking for things to pour out of it to make MORE room. Less is More. Empty is the New Full.

 I’ve been away for a while, so what’s up? How are you my friends? Miss walahi, bs I’ve been busy the past few days, it doesn’t mean I wasn’t reading for all of you, cuz I was, I comments whenever I have time Kaman :)

So what’s going on? Hope you all are having great time in this holiday season, Christmas is coming soon, it’s great how where ever I look from my office window (yay!! I’m on the 4^th floor and I can see the city from there :D ) I see all kinds of X-Mas decorations, and since I leave work late, the view is just amazing while driving, the lights are breath taking.

Enough with the X-Mas and the lights, work is great el 7amdolla, I’m getting used it little by little, I learn new things every day, I love that, I actually and the first time in my life I don’t mind staying late at work, beside the fact that I don’t’ have a life, I actually enjoy it.

I know I’m as active as before, but I promise I’ll be back, walahi, just wish me luck you guys, and I actually have a lot to say, I’ll post about it all later today or tomoroow, I promise.

Gotta go back to work, this was a little HELLO from me to all of you :)

Today was my first day at the new job, I’m no longer a Pharmacy Technician, I’m starting over in a different field, the IT field.

To tell the truth, I was extremely scared, I haven’t been working with computer for more than 3 years, to be more specific, I haven’t been working with computers since I graduated, I guess that gives me all the right to panic!!

But thank god, things today went OK, once I walked in, everybody was super busy and nobody explained anything to me for the first 2 hours, I was FREAKING OUT, what the heck I’m suppose to do, I mean my new boss explained to me that I’m gonna go through a week or so of training, but my “teacher” was doing things around me EXTREMELY FAST, I started to ask myself, am I dumb or is he trying to make me think that I am??? I mean I know I’m not stupid, but he was clicking the buttons in away that I didn’t get the chance to read what he was clicking, give me a break what are you trying to prove?? DUH!!!!!

So what did I do, I just smiled at him and asked him about the documentation they keep for the system, and his first respond was, NOOOOOO :) the documentation is too complicated for you now, what did I do, I went to my desk trying to read the documentation they have, until another guy showed up, I asked him if I can set quietly just to watch what he does to get myself familiar with things around here, the guy was so nice and started explaining things while he is doing it, I felt SOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH BETTER!!! HEHEHE I’m not stupid, the other dude was trying to freak me out for absolutely no reason.. some people are really something!!

So all in all, my first day was OK :) , I’m gonna have to study hard for the next few days, but that’s fine, I don’t mind at all, as long as I don’t feel dumb :D

I’m so excited, I love my new job, everything is hard at first, bs I promise I’m gonna do my best.

P.S: Battah… thank you VERY MUCH for being there for me today and for supporting me, I don’t know what would’ve happened without you!! I love you :)
