V

2010-08-28T19:24:00.001+02:00

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition! The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honour to meet you and you may call me V.

Good Mood

2010-07-01T09:46:00.002+03:00

I don't know why, but I woke up in such a good mood and wanted to share it with the world. So go ahead good energy, spread spread!

I met up with an old friend yesterday and we had such a good time. I love old friends. Doesn't matter how much time goes by without seeing them, you'll still be the same people around each other. It's just so much easier than with new people. You don't care what they think of you, you're just you.

Ok enough falsafeh 3al sobo7.

I have a million tabs open to read, so off I go.

Bye!

Blogging from work

2010-06-30T12:30:00.003+03:00

First of all, thank you to whoever from the IT department decided not to block any websites on this computer. Other people in the department can't even open Alghad. MUAHAHA.

Note to self: must download Chrome. I hate Internet Explorer. I can't even spell-check what I'm writing right now. I click the ABC button thingie but nothing.

Moving on.

I'm currently doing an internship to finish my remaining mandatory training hours. I finish my hours on Sunday but I want to continue working with them. I don't really know why. It's not that much fun, but it's not bad and I'm kind of getting to see what an industrial engineer does. You know before completely ruling out the idea of working in my field.

The idea of me sitting in an office from 8-5, 6 days a week scares the hell out of me. I mean if I spent it doing something I love, I don't think I'd have any problem with it, but this is not what I love.

Even though I decided against taking summer courses, it hasn't been much of a vacation. But I'm not complaining. I like the idea of working. When I get back from Germany, I'm definitely going to work during my 5th year.

Ah speaking of Germany.

I finally received my invitation letter and went to the embassy the day before yesterday. I should be receiving my visa in about a month. I have a language course that starts September 13th but I think I'll go about a week earlier and stay in Berlin first.

Funny how a few months ago I was scared of the whole thing, but I'm sort of excited about it now, even though I'm going alone without any of my friends. Not too excited, since no expectations means no disappointments, but I'm not dreading it. I want to be completely independent and here's my chance.

I decided to chronicle the whole thing from day 1, so I will probably get back to blogging on the other blog. Observations of a Jordanian in Germany or something.

That's about it.

I'm only blogging now btw because my supervisor's in a meeting and I finished what I was working on.

Bye!

Got Jena!

2010-04-03T14:02:00.003+02:00

So on Tuesday we had our rather interesting meeting for the industrial engineering department to decide where each student would go in Germany. At the last minute I had decided against going to the University of Cologne and to go to Jena instead, because turns out the engineering faculty of the Cologne university is not in Cologne but in a godforsaken town called Gummersbach. Now granted Jena isn't that big a city but I just loved it after reading about it. It's got trams, it's a student city with a lot of foreigners so it doesn't intimidate international students like other east German cities. AND AND it's one of the warmest cities in Germany! AND the driest! (as in it rains 5 days a week instead of 6), but still.. Thankfully no one wanted Jena, so my part of the meeting went rather peacefully while other students struggled.

Things I am not looking forward to, however (but my mother is ecstatic about):

1) Cleaning
2) Doing laundry
3) Cooking
4) heck just doing anything around the house/dorm/room/whatever

This should be interesting...

Goalless Living?

2010-03-18T20:07:00.004+02:00

This is a topic that's been on my mind for some time now. Embedded in this post is one of the most inspiring videos I have ever seen. It is a video of one of the speakers at NewThink theatre, a concept coined by Maher Qaddoura (the father of late Hikmat Qaddoura who was killed in a car accident). The idea is to get speakers from various domains to inspire to create change, to result in actions rather than talk. Their first event was a huge success and the second event was recently confirmed to take place in May. I will definitely go.

Back to the subject. The video below is of Sanaa' Abdo, a woman who underwent tremendous hardship, from being born with a handicap to having a stroke in her twenties. Yet she believes in being happy, she refused to give up and feel sorry for herself and as a result she is talking about how we, as a society, are negative and tend to bring people down. I strongly urge you to watch the video.

In the end, she speaks about the importance of living life with a goal. She says how she wakes up every single day with a goal, and how no one should live their life without a goal in mind.

That got me thinking.

Do you have a goal? I don't mean ambition, as in becoming successful, earning a good salary, being a good person. We all have ambitions. I mean a goal. An analytical study of how you want to live your life and what you have to accomplish in the coming week, month and years.

I don't. I never sat down and wrote I want to have accomplished A, B and C in 5 years. Is it wrong to live day by day?

This is a comment I found on some site about the subject: "In the speech by Steve Jobs, he talks about trusting your gut and doing what you love and how that you have to "trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future". It would be hard to say that Jobs has pursued goalless living given what he has achieved. However, he does seem to have based his life and career decisions on gut instinct rather than analytical planning."

Do you have a goal?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Passing Afternoon

2010-02-19T12:56:00.002+02:00

One of the most beautiful songs ever written. The lyrics are amazing, so beautiful. I don't know what the song is about. Maybe it's about how life can end, about our "endless numbered days", the name of the album. Maybe it's about lost love.

Passing Afternoon - Iron and Wine

There are times that walk from you
Like some passing afternoon
Summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon
And she chose a yard to burn
But the ground remembers her
Wooden spoons, her children stir her Bougainvillea blooms
There are things that drift away
Like our endless numbered days
Autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made
And she's chosen to believe
In the hymns her mother sings
Sunday pulls its children from their piles of fallen leaves
There are sailing ships that pass
All our bodies in the grass
Springtime calls her children until she lets them go at last
And she's chosen where to be
Though she's lost her wedding ring
Somewhere near her misplaced jar of Bougainvillea seeds
There are things we can't recall
Blind as night that finds us all
Winter tucks her children in, her fragile china dolls
But my hands remember hers
Rolling around the shaded ferns
Naked arms, her secrets still like songs I'd never learned
There are names across the sea
Only now I do believe
Sometimes, with the window closed, she'll sit and think of me
But she'll mend his tattered clothes
And they'll kiss as if they know
A baby sleeps in all our bones, so scared to be alone

Old Arabic Songs

2010-02-18T17:26:00.004+02:00

I've become so addicted to some old Arabic songs lately, especially the ones in formal Arabic language (3arabi fasee7). Our language is really beautiful and I feel we don't appreciate it as we should.

Here are the videos of a couple of my latest addictions:

"Taloomoni al Donya- Lateefa" (words by Nizar Qabbani and composed by Kathem Saher

"Kon Sadeeki- Majida Roomi"

"khaleeni bil jaw- maya nasri" ok the video sucks big time but I love the song.

"7abibati man takoon - Nawal Zoghbi" One of my all-time faves. It's originally by Abd il 7aleem 7afiz but I think this cover is so much better.

I HATE IT

2010-02-14T18:16:00.004+02:00

I don't think I've ever hated uni as much as I do this semester and it's driving me into a depression. And the thing is, I don't even know why I'm hating it so much.

Maybe it's my crappy schedule, there's traffic when I arrive and AWFUL traffic when I leave. I now understand why cab drivers are such assholes. Ba3dein to have Java at 3.30? 7aram 3aleikom.

Or maybe it's because I'm not liking the subjects I'm taking. I don't remember liking a subject so much, but I don't know, now I'm realizing that I don't wanna be doing, whatever it is the hell I'm studying, for the rest of my life.

Aaaaah kollo 3a ba3do garaf.

And I tried starting this week with a positive attitude, which lasted what 15 minutes?

I think I'm having some sort of quarter-life crisis.

Are you good at "Bullshit"?

2010-02-10T23:23:00.004+02:00

The card game, that is. The point is to get rid of all your cards by placing one or more cards of a certain determined number. For example, player 1 has to put down an ace, player 2 a two, and so on. If you don't have the number you're supposed to play, or wish to pass more cards, you lie. Hence the name "Bullshit". If a player accuses you of lying he yells out "Bullshit", and upon opening the cards you either collect all the cards at the table if you were lying, or if you were in fact honest, the accuser gets the cards.

I personally suck at this game. If I win, it's only because I lucked out and had the numbers I was supposed to play. I think this game is a pretty good indicator of whether people have the ability to "bullshit" people or not.

I'm not talking about lying. I think I can lie. But I can't pretend to like someone if I really don't. It always shows up on my face. Other people have a rather impressive ability to make people think they like them, while secretly hating them. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, let's face it, bullshitting is an important skill.

Not for me though. I can't pretend to be another person.

I'd suck as a politician, no?

I just felt like blogging...

2010-02-03T00:07:00.003+02:00

Don't have much to say but I felt like posting something..

So I'm on a break now till next Sunday, when my new semester starts. I'm not looking forward, because the schedule's not so great and all my courses are with the exact same people. Don't get me wrong, I like them, but a change would be nice, no? Plus I'm taking JAVA. I hate programming courses, I almost flunked the C course.

Students must finish 160 hours of training before leaving to Germany (which is next September for me) and I still have 80 hours to complete. I could've finished them this break but I didn't want to do anything, really.

I'm so lazy when it comes to getting stuff done. I don't know if I've always been like this, or if this whole attitude just developed since uni, but I'm always like "meh". I remember reading a post about knowing what you want to be and where you're going, and I realized I'm totally clueless. I have no idea what I want to be, I have no idea what I want to be doing, I'm basically just going with the flow. I mean I'm doing pretty good I think, my average is like 81 but what's the point if I don't know what to do with that? And what I'm supposed to have an epiphany if I don't know? And then you see people who studied one thing and are doing something completely irrelevant. I think I'm gonna end up like that. But whatever it is I end up doing, I want to be happy doing it. I'm just gonna keep quitting till I find something I like.

Moving on.

I started on this project with 7iber. They're receiving funding to hire 3 people to summarize posts from around the Jordanian blogosphere to be published in Alghad (yes, in Arabic). I'm loving it because it's really improving my Arabic language, I haven't written Arabic articles since God knows when. I also remembered how much I love translating. But so far, they haven't started publishing and yesterday we were told to stop writing till we get confirmation on when they'd start posting. Hope the whole thing will work out, because it'll be a serious bummer if it doesn't. I want a paycheck :(

Ok I'm done talking.

Bye bye.

Enjoy Yourself...

2010-02-03T00:01:00.002+02:00

House is one of my all-time favorite shows, it just keeps getting better by the season, and the video below is one of my favorite moments in the show. It's from season 5 [SPOILER ALERT], where House realizes that his hallucination, Amber who died in season 4, has not disappeared. It's so creepy, watch it.

Thoughts

2010-01-21T15:16:00.002+02:00

Mansaf for the fourth day. If it wasn't so good, I'd probably mind, but seriously it's so good. For your future occasions, hopefully happy ones, order from Deeretna. Not Jabri, Jabri sucks. Deeretna is heavenly. Guaranteed post-mansaf coma every single time.

Yesterday was the last day at the 3aza. I must have passively smoked the equivalent of 9 cigarette packs. Combined with the Mansaf and the no fastwalking for the past week, this can't be healthy.

Today I had one of my makeup exams, seeing as I missed two. It was, umm, interesting? Out of maybe 20 multiple choice questions, I figured out what, 3? I tried to study but I couldn't, I even woke up at 5 to study but somehow ended up watching "how i met your mother". Anyway, I have another exam on Saturday and the last one on Sunday. Then I'll hibernate.

I never thought of myself as a family person, but I really loved the unity I witnessed during the last couple of days, not just from family members, but everyone. I think I'm actually appreciating our traditions after all, aside from the fact that the whole thing, as in dying, costs a freaking fortune. But really, the all people coming together part I like.

If I don't tweet, I facebook. If I don't facebook, I blog. Some urge within me compels me to send my thoughts into the virtual world, one way or another.

Rest in Peace Teta

2010-01-19T16:16:00.005+02:00

If ever two people were in love, it would have to be my grandparents. My grampa says their parents decided they were meant for each other since they were kids, I mean their names really were Farhan and Farha. I have never seen a man more in love with his wife. Every morning, he wakes up at 5, brews his special turkish coffee, cuts fresh flowers from our garden, puts them in a small vase and brings them with the coffee to my grandma.

We all live in the same building, and I remember when I was young my mom would leave me downstairs when she went to work. I remember she would teach me these old songs she learned from her childhood, and then I would stand next to her in the kitchen as she cooked and after lunch I would sleep next to her as she took her sacred nap.

Saturday night she suffered a brain hemorrhage and passed away. She had suffered strokes in the past, but for the last 2 months she got so much better, she really was back to her old self.

My grandfather is in disbelief.

"After 59 years of marriage, I can't not see her. How could you go and leave me ya Far7a?" he says with tears in his eyes. He tells us how she kissed him 5 times after he shaved on Saturday. He requested they reserve a grave for him next to her.

Rest in peace ya Teta.

New Year Resolutions

2009-12-31T18:28:00.000+02:00

Got any?

Dear GJU

2009-12-25T08:51:00.003+02:00

First of all, merry Christmas. You sure made it a wonderful Christmas and a Friday for all those students who woke up at 6 AM to refresh your stupid registration page because you never have the decency to actually start the registration on time, and if a student just happens to believe you and open the site at the time you said you would, oops, all sections are closed.

So again thank you so much for your consideration and decency, and again, have a very merry Christmas.

Sincerely,
Farah

at the uni

2009-12-02T10:59:00.005+02:00

*5orma, Farah and Sade sitting in the soft area in building B. 5orma ditched Statistics (ok apparently ra7 ye7dar), Sade ditched German (Deutsch) (cuz Farah promised to buy him Candy and he is a naive child), and Farah (cuz I'm too cool I speak in the third person) ditched OR because the lecture is in building D and building D is freezing cold so I just ditched.

Ok 5orma left.

-Haaai Sade.

-Candy?

-Kein Geld

-*censored*

Ok I'm off to show Twitter to Sade.

Farah, GJU, Al Jazeera, Moskoooooo

2009-11-19T19:19:00.006+02:00

I may end up as the crazy old lady throwing cats at children down the street....

I mean think about it, I like cats (well not obsessively for now and I hate kids.

That was supposed to be funny btw, HINT HINT.

So I saw Valkyrie today. It's a pretty good movie. And I got Inglorious Bastards to watch. I never had such an urge to speak German. I kinda like German. It gives a sense of professionalism. Or it just scares people. Both ways, it works for me :D

And I HATE driving on Thursdays. It's frustrating I swear...

Ya I'm gonna go.

on kampfy chairs

2009-11-11T18:18:00.002+02:00

I love demotivational posters! This one cracks me up, Saed sent it to me a while back. The joke comes from the fact that Hitler wrote a book called "mein Kampf" meaning my struggle but Saed was like Oh really I didn't know that this was a book, and I was like then why did you laugh at mein kampfy chair, and he was like I don't know it's a funny word. ooook sade ooook.

Oh and check out this video it's so funny

Hmm shu kaman? Today was the final weekday, I even ditched two lectures today cuz I wasn't in the mood to attend. I just sat outside with a couple of friends who were making UNBELIEVABLY stupid jokes hehe. I try to enjoy uni time as much as possible because I'm pretty sure a couple of years from now I'm gonna wish I was back in uni.

I have some studying I need to do over the weekend meh. I have no idea what one of my courses is even about but that's just because the professor is the stupidest human being on the face of this earth I am not kidding. Language-wise NOTHING, he says upnormal instead of abnormal, weighter instead of scale (and pronounces it wei2er), inno I don't care about wrong grammar or whatever but when the students have no idea what the hell you're talking about, you've got a problem.

Today fast-walking in Rabieh. I'm so loving it because heik it gives you a break from everything else. You just put on the ipod speakers and go walking for a couple of hours and completely take your mind off everything else, it's just a great destressing, de-depressing (pressing?/beh) method.

Ok bai.

on turning 20 and other stuff

2009-11-07T16:57:00.003+02:00

The poor blog. It's dying. I will try to entertain it with a post every once in a while. I seriously doubt there's anyone reading this but ya what the hell. The following is in no particular order.

I turned 20 last Sunday. As much as I hate to admit it, there is some sense of maturity that comes along with it. I made some resolutions and all.

The day before I went through the moodiest phase I had ever went through. I would be totally happy at one point, then have the sudden urge to bawl like a baby at the next. It's like my teenage years decided to manifest themselves for one last time. It was probably stress because I tend to hide my emotions until they come screaming out.

Yesterday I went to Jerash with the extended family, it was nice. I love Jordan's natural scenery, it's really beautiful. I think even if I worked or studies abroad for a while, I would have to come back here. I can't imagine myself living anywhere else.

And on Thursday I got lost for the first time since I got my license, which is surprising considering my completely nonexistent sense of direction. I wanted to go to Swefiyeh but somehow kept ending up in Abdoun, so after 30 minutes of trying I finally called my mom for directions and she made fun of me and all ha ha ha.

So I've been going to this fastwalking Jordan thing, and I'm really enjoying it. Basically, a lot of people group meet up near the 5th circle every sunday and wednesday and head towards a destination then go back to 5th circle. And you always find someone you know, Amman is a pretty small place afterall. And I love how their destination are not necessarily west Amman and so, they go to Balad and Ras al Ain, it's really nice.

Oh and I went cycling last week. And marathoning 2 weeks ago. Look at me becoming all athletic. Amma hoo, I just ate 2 kitkats. Seriously don't buy Kitkat unless it's wrapped in silver foil, it's so much better compared to the normal one.

Enough for now, I make posts later I bromise. baai :)

EPIC FAIL DAY!

2009-09-29T20:35:00.006+02:00

Okay so today is like an EPIC FAIL day! I've had like 4 embarrassing incidents hehehe.

Number 1: I'm at the bookshop with Abdallah and Saed. I went to grab a notebook from the shelf and I ended up dropping like 10 notebooks and part of the shelf. I put the notebooks back, hid the part of the shelf under the floor and walked out from the store with Abdallah and Saed laughing their asses off.

Number 2 (LOL): I'm going into the building where my class is, and I have my purse on my shoulder. My purse gets stuck to the door handle and I'm suddenly pulled backwards. The man sitting on the desk in the front stared at me and said: "shu camera 5afiyyeh?" yalla baseeeeta.

Number 3: hahaha ya I'm not gonna mention this one. Don't worry, nothing bathroom related or so hehehehe.

Number 4: I'm in the car and I smell something burning. My window is half-way open but it was dark and it looked open all the way, so I stick my head out to smell and BAM! Awwal marra basma3 de7keh heik min Abdallah.

Hmmm so we started uni on Sunday. My schedule's pretty good, I get 3 days off, but 2 of my professors suck pretty badly bas yalla baseeta. The uni's become so crowded and since we have no actual campus, everybody's just outside on the street during their breaks so you see like swarms of people outside the cafeteria.

Haha so first day I take the car to the uni I get a driving ticket. 2al for parking on a lane even though there was no "no parking" sign and students park there ALL the time. Like 6 other cars got a ticket too. Woohoo my first ticket!

Hmmm what else? Let's just say this year is different. I feel like I've started this year with a new perspective. I'm more appreciative of the people in my life and I took steps I quite frankly didn't think was capable of.

Oh and I saw this accident today at Abdallah Ghosheh street in front of McDonalds and it seriously depressed me even though there were no casualties. One of those huge McDonalds delivery trucks lost control or its breaks stopped working or something and it slammed into a cab and another car on the main road. The cars got pretty smashed up. It was just depressing.

Ya I think that's pretty much it.

Bye bye!

CHUCK NORRIS!!

bits and pieces

2009-09-04T22:14:00.006+02:00

The following post is dedicated to Saed. Because he's quite the nagger. But ya, a push is what I always need to get me to do stuff. I always have great ideas, but zero momentum to actually go through with stuff. Man I swear if I had momentum, yours truly would be ruling the world someday. Sigh. haaai sade :)

Hmmm so Ramadan started almost 2 weeks ago. Since we don't have university right now, there hasn't been a lot of stuff to do. Seeing friends, breakfast every once in a while at Books@, driving in the evening with mom in the passenger seat covering her eyes, shopping. I collect spare change that lies around the house, so the other day I took all of the change from the past two years to cash it out and they amounted to more than 150 JDs hehehehe. So yes, collect your change from now on. I wanna get a job though, I hate asking the parents for money. Inno basta7i.

Ah shu kaman?

There are a couple of serious subjects I wanted to post about in the other blog but I haven't been in the mood to actually collect the facts about them and then make them into decent posts but I'm just gonna spill out the ideas:

1) The other day I was reading an article in Living Well about the vaccine against cervical cancer. The vaccine called Gardasil prevents 70% of cervical cancer cases as well as other types of cancer in women. It should be given to girls from the ages of 13-27 as three doses over 6 months, each costing 150 JDs if my memory serves correctly. It should however be given as early as possible for maximum efficiency. So a cure (well vaccine, actually) for a cancer that kills a large number of women every year! JOY! Why the bloody hell aren't we giving it to girls everywhere? Because HPV, the virus which causes the majority of cervical cancer cases is sexually transmitted. The magazine says over 80% of women around the world contract HPV at one point or another. And for parents here, the "sex shot" is like a green card for women to start having sex. But my god how ridiculous is that, I mean you give your child a tetanus shot but you still don't tell him to step on rusty nails. You don't wear a seat belt with the certainty of going into a car accident. It's a precaution.

What seriously bugged me is how they quoted one woman who said that she would never consider giving the vaccine to her daughter, but were they to develop one for males, then she would give it to her son. Another mother said that she'd rather live with the unfounded suspicion of her daughter having sex than having to bury her because of her irrational choice. Give me your thoughts people.

So yes for me, I think this vaccine should be as compulsory as polio. I think we should discuss this as a start, I didn't know the vaccine was available here sara7a. And no, I haven't opened the subject with my parents. It's on my to do list, though.

2) I was reminded about the other things from Shadi's blog. He mentioned he was approached for taking part in this business called Quest. Basically to enter this business, you have to buy some merchandise from their website for a certain amount (I can't remember how much). After that, your job is to introduce more and more people into the business. The more people sign up, the more money goes into your pocket. I was approached a few months back by a bunch of people, so I did some research about the subject and a LOT of people seem to have lost money in the very same company which seems to thrive in developing country. The concept is the basis of what they call a pyramid scheme, people on the top making money from the people at the bottom of the chain. At some point, people will stop going into this business and the chain stops and they will lose their money. Yes its true, you can make a lot of money, but you're basically taking it from the people after you, who are probably your parents or friends. If you're not convinced, just google "quest pyramid scheme".

3) the third subject is medical liability in Jordan. I was wondering the other day, do we have such a thing as medical malpractice insurance? What brought it to my mind is that the doctor who once operated on my brother is now in prison (or under hospital confinement because he underwent recent surgery) because a patient he operated on died from complications after being released. And this is a doctor who's received tons of medals and certificates and stuff. But I mean even the best of doctor kill someone at one point or another, no? So ya, I was wondering about that.

Ok one very last point. I think ours is the only family that isn't nor has ever watched Bab il 7ara. What's with the obsession with this show wallahi I don't get it. I really find it weird how it attracts both children and adults. They should make some sort of study about the subject.

5alas enough for now.

bye.

this summer sucks

2009-08-13T23:24:00.005+03:00

Disclaimer: this is a complaining post.

This summer was seriously pointless. It didn't even feel like summer. For starters I took summer courses, okay fine they're just two courses but still the very idea of studying something right now is just meh. I would say it's the last time I take summer courses but ya you never know. Next semester I'm taking 15 credit hours, which is fine considering two of the courses have labs. I'm not gonna rush myself anymore, I honestly don't care if I graduate in 5 years or 4 and a half or whatever, I'm not exactly psyched about working so again, meh.

Reason number 2: I'm the only one in the family to not go away ANYWHERE this summer. Little brother went to germany for a whole month, big brother went to germany for a week, and the one who actually studies in the GERMAN university didn't go to Germany. There's your acrimonious irony. -Can you say acrimonious irony? Inno I know you say acrimonious debate and stuff, but I don't know it seems to fit here-..... moving on... Mom's going to England for the umpteenth time, and Dad's in Yemen. (yes, Yemen counts it's outside the country, mashi?). Ok fine I know all of them are going for work and camps and what not but still.

Reason number 3: hmm what was reason number 3? Oh ya they've been renovating the house the past month and I swear it can seriously drive someone insane. The incessant noises, the mess, the bunch of workers around the house gaaaaaah. The house looks really nice now, on the other hand.

Reason number 4: did I mention meh? nothing to look forward to efft. ooo but I did get my license woohoo. After quite a struggle lol. I swear I will never set foot in that place again yil3an ha. Or at least till I need to get it renewed. And there's a car and everything available but I have to kind of practice before ze parents will give it to me. Abdallah and Saed yalla ur turn. I think Saed would go for it, but Abdalla is just too bloody lazy. And now with one more person to drive him around? Ya not anytime soon.

I think I'm done whining. Everyone's entitled to a complaining post every once in a while, no?

Off I go.

Matalan

2009-08-13T23:09:00.008+03:00

Hmmm it's so not like me to want to write a post about a clothing store but this place I have to blog. Matalan is one of those high quality, low prices stores along the lines of Wallmart and the such. And the first store to open overseas was in Jordan (Eat your heart out, Dubai). I just love how they have everything, their prices are very reasonable (don't be fooled by the fact that it's in Baraka mall), and for those of us who aren't a size XS or -2 or whatever you can actually find something :)

Anyhoo so go check it out. Baraka mall, the entire third floor. Oh and you can find the exact same stuff on their website, so if you're unbelievably lazy you can browse the stuff they have on their website then just go and buy it.

Random story? So I was with mom and we're going down from the place to the car and I bump my foot against a stand or something and my toe starts bleeding like a lot, all over my slippers and all (I think I've scared a few kids haha). The whole thing looks pretty disgusting. So what does mom say? "Make sure you don't get any blood in the car". gee, thanks mom. >.>

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH......
*Ignore all spelling mistakes + grammer wrote it while being very "not in the mood"*
I'm really not pissed just fucking annoyed, had a fight with the folks over the dog again... aah aah I'm too sick of this, each weak they find a new reason why the dog must go...
1st week:she is too jumpy and excited all the time
So I let her off her leash to run free
2nd week: at night she got a bunch of garbage from the hood and put them all around our garden.
Put her back on the leash but walked her more often.
3rd week: neighbors started complain about her barking all the time
got her a muzzle
THIS WEEK: She is taking too much space from the house, the garden always feels dirty from her, her shit is all around the back, she is nijseh (don't really know the english meaning of that).
So as you know I'm burnt... after this fight I had to go outside in the sun gather all her shits together, set up a new more hidden spot for her, and clean all around.... just to "fix the problem"!
Next week for the new problem what do u expect it to be?
AHAAA now for the most funny part... I come back inside the problem isn't the dog anymore its my life.....
bla bla bla
So I went into my room and sat on the computer.... I usually play games when I'm annoyed and I did... started losing at any game i try to play.....
DotA
Dofus
Hearts
Pinball
aaaaarghhh

I can't say that I believe it but its all around the globe Micheal Jackson is Dead, with 50 years of age.
It is kind of sad, I think because Micheal Jackson was one of the artists who I knew ever since I was a young child. I remember the 1st time I watched the video clip "thriller" I was i thinly only 6 years or maybe less. I had nightmares for months I swear. But I loved his songs.....
Thriller.....
Billie Jean....
Beat it......
Smooth Criminal.....
These are some of his work.
Other than the songs he sang the performances that he took part in...
The lively concerts.....
The dancing...
The moonwalk.....

Even with 50 years of age, he was scheduled to do a tour in London in a couple of weeks.
Rest In Peace my friend,
and keep moonwalking!

Things that have been on my mind lately....

2009-06-26T00:19:00.005+03:00

well I've been away for a long time now.... mainly for many reason.... I had a lot of internet crashes and shit like that... meh you know.... uni has been a b*tch to be honest... lool I have failed math finally... they hit me with the 1st course i pass with 57 they hit me with the 2nd I pass with 52.. the 3rd I was determined to do good and I passed with 78!! then on the 4th course I guess I just lost it... it wasnt fully my fault tho, instructor was smart but a retard at teaching, the subject was mostly boring....the class was FULL of NERDS... which made me be the lowest there which was ....can't think of a word really but like tiny. I didn't even bother to go to the final... before the final i went to see how much marks i would need to pass it... so I checked it out and found out that I have got 13/60 for the semester work so i needed a 37/40 to pass.... meh...
What else is on my mind.... I dont like to talk much so ya I'm always pretty brief....well my Girlfriend is out of the country which kinda sucks ass... especially because we haven't had some free time in a while...
I have thought of my graduation project for uni.... it will be sooo fucking sexy I promise but I seriously would like it work....*dreams for a while*
I have a couple of issues I'd like to discuss.... honestly ask urself; after go into to the bathroom and shit do u or don't u check out the result *your shit* I swear its normal, alot of people do it.... I got to admit I become a bit sick because there are 2 specifically which I'm proud of :
1) The shit was long enough to touch the water without breaking * still attached to my ass*.
2) I had gas and I had wet shit at the same time so when I went to shit I felt like I was spray painting.
I do admit that its sick but it isn't wrong..
however for sicker people check www.ratemypoo.com
If your a fart person so check out www.ratemyfart.com

Ok and the last thing on my mind...
Do you say Matakeh or Makateh?

...how when you're avoiding something or procrastinating there seem to be so many things to do. But once you've successfully dodged very responsibility or task, all you're left with is this sense of restlessness and boredom and inevitably you start planning to do something.

Barbie Girl, Jordanian Style!

2009-05-21T17:45:00.003+03:00

Abdallah and I were working on our german presentation (which we postponed lol) when we came across these videos. I think the dudes are Jordanian. They have a the Jordanian flag hanging in the background in one of their videos. Enjoy!

Do you ever write STUPID things in exams?

2009-05-14T00:18:00.003+03:00

I came across this thread in the Student Room. I was quite addicted to that website during my IG years! Ahh nostalgia. Anyway the following are actual answers by IG students, some of them unintentional and some of them just to mess with the examiners. The school always warned us not to write any personal notes in externals as they would be regarded as cheating attempts (though now I highly doubt it). I never wrote anything on purpose -though I often had the urge to write "refer to mark scheme" hahahaha. I did write some little notes on occasion, like in my synoptic bio paper. You try writing 9 consecutive pages for a bio essay without messing around. Aaaah I miss bio. Anyhoo, here they are, my top 10:

1) I forgot how to spell the word "plane" (as in aeroplane... how I forgot that I don't know) in my GCSE physics exam. This is a copy of what my answer came out as:

Give an example of where static electricity can be dangerous
When fuelling ~~plains~~ ~~playens~~ ~~playns~~ ~~plaines~~ big aluminium flying machines, a spark could result in an explosion.

2) I spelt my own name wrong on my philosophy paper!!!! :O

3) Probably have written something stupid in exams, but have definitly said something stupid, took both French and German for GCSE, had the oral exams really close together and ended my recorded German exam saying 'Au revior'! Thought it was quite funny to be honest lol!

4) In my Psychology exam I was writing about Freud's theory on the stages of development in children and I meant to say "Children go through a phase where they put toys, their hands etc in their mouths to recieve pleasure", but I actually put "Children go through a phase where they like to recieve pleasure orally" - I hope my examiner isn't dirty minded!!

5) I got really nervous in my GCSE mock french oral and so she said "tell me about your father". I ran out of things to say after a minute so she said "and what colour is his hair?", I panicked and said "green!".

6) In S1 we had to give an interpretation of the correlation, and it has to be between 1 and -1, but my answer was -21, so I wrote "The answer was -21, which is clearly wrong because it should be between 1 and -1. Therefore, I'm going to pretend my answer was -1 and my interpretation is: This shows strong negative correlation." (hahahaha!!)
Do you think that will get the mark lol?

7) I had CH4 (Chemistry) the other day and there was a question about how to safely heat some mixture over a Bunsen burner. So I said stick it in a test tube and dangle it over the flame. Only I couldn't for the life of me recall what "forceps" were called... We do all our practicals in Welsh, so I hadn't really worked out what they were called. So I wrote a whole paragraph on holding the test tube with long metal implements with a handle, and not using your bare hands, because that would burn you etc. Right at the end of the exam, I recalled a Biology lesson on pregnancy and how some babies need assistance with forceps... Eureka! So my one marker question is this massive paragraph, then at the end:

"Or you could just use forceps".

Yes!

8) The worst I've ever managed is writing in my German coursework: 'In my village there is a big old cherry' instead of church (kirsche/kirche).

9) My girlfriend misunderstood the drawings on her GCSE German oral prompt card. There was a drawing of a moon and stars above a hotel (indicating to any normal person to ask about staying overnight). My girlfriend however, thought she was required to ask if there were any muslims in the hotel...no doubt the examiner thought she was some form of white supremacist. (HAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Seriously I wish I could've seen the look on the examiner's face!)

10) I do this all the time.
In my physics exam I was asked to show how you would calculate something, and I finished my answer with "et voila!" and drew a happy face.

In another physics exam, I had to draw a ray diagram, but my pencil was really blunt, so I wrote "sourry about my fat pencil" in the margin (which was supposed to be left blank).

In my chemistry exam, I did a load of working out wrong, but instead of crossing it out, I wrote "that was a waste of time...anyway..." and then continued with the question.

In my biology exam, I missed out the word sea before sea snails, when reading the question, so I went on to talk about preadation from birds, even though these snails live on the sea bed...

In a maths exam I wrote "screw it" when I couldn't work an answer out.

I often write things like "Woo!" or "Yay!" if I finally manage to crack a particularly trickey question.

Man, my examiner better have a sense of humour...

Also i remember a friend of mine wrote "jesus told me to fail" on an RE exam, spose if he had the right examiner it could have worked!

Quarantine or REC*

2009-05-12T09:08:00.003+03:00

on a 10/10 on the horror scale, this movie is amazing wether you've watched REC* or Quarantine... Quarantine is actually the english version of REC*.... Quarantine has covered all the missing spots that weren't there in REC* but REC* had some amazing effects... especially sounds.... Jennifer Carpenter the star of Quarintine played an amazing role... she also played the role of emily rose! which also was amazing!

Check out Trailers of both movies! :

2009-05-07T01:52:00.005+03:00

Yes I do listen to Arabic music and I actually like Arabic oldies. I haven't been able to get this song out of my head all day! It's originally by Abd Il Haleem Hafez and beautifully sung here by Nawal Zoghbi (ignore the blatant cleavage).

I'm off to bed. Enjoy!

Puke in my mouth: the female response!

2009-05-04T22:07:00.004+03:00

This is the female response to the famous parody "Jizz in my pants" by Lonely Island: Puke in my mouth!

Just in case you've been living in a cave and haven't seen jizz in my pants, here it is. hilarious!

weird video of the day

2009-04-21T17:08:00.001+02:00

okay I don't know why I find this so fascinating, but this is a truly incredible nature phenomenon. It's of a female praying mantis, a certain carnivorous insect species actually devouring the male DURING, yes during, mating. Vicious! If you're easily ewwed, don't watch it.

And while i'm at it, did you know that hamsters devour their young? The females do when they feel threatened, and the males do to elminate competition.

Lovely world out there, no? :D

long time no see

2009-04-20T01:33:00.002+02:00

Well hello. It's been a long time since I posted anything. I haven't been posting anything on the other blog either because I haven't been in a serious blog mode at all.

Okay so my brother just got back from the airport and the whole family woke up and woke me along in the process and now it's 2.30 AM, I can't go back to sleep and I need to wake up at 6. Lovely. Everybody's got the day off for Easter but I don't. :(

Not much going on, really. On Thursday I had my last midterm (or is it a first exam? I lost track). Material science majorly sucks I may add. Okay fine it may have had something to do with the fact that I've started studying 6 chapters on the very same day of the exam, but seriously it sucks. oooo look at the views of the crystallographic planes and decide the structure. I can't imagine 3-D objects okay?? Just like Abdallah doesn't see colors. teehee. But i did ace my German,economics and probability exams. Without studying. Hell yeah!

Hmm what else? Easter was today. Didn't feel like Easter at all though. Usually, every year my uncles from my mom's side would come one after the other to y3aydo 3aleina and then we'd be invited to a 5aroof lunch at my grandparents. But this year, due to the death of a distant family member, everybody was invited to lunch in Irbid, and since I didn't want to go, I ended up attending the electric circuits lab (oh joy!). Then i went to cups with the guys. So ya, it just didn't feel like Easter.

I did spend the weekend at the Dead Sea though, and the weather was awesome. There were so many Germans there. Apparently their insurance actually covers their stay here at the dead sea, because it's considered medical treatment. Aha.

Ya i think that's about it. I think i'll go and start counting 5awareef.

This is a really intresting website seriously... you join add song that you like and people view it.... you can find people with the same tastes and they can find you... it can also connect to twitter.com which is also amazing... twitter is the non-commercial version of facebook....i think facebook is all about popularity and showing off mostly however twitter is only basic, you have to write whats on your mind and you only have 140 characters to fill spaces included....

ok here i have 25 "random" songs from my blip.fm account hope you enjoy and if u decided to join find me at Beyond_ink... same on twitter :P

Twittering!

2009-04-03T19:26:00.002+02:00

Ya Abdallah sorta introduced me to twitter and so now I found another internet time waster (and managed to drag more friends in the process). It allows you to keep updating your status to a whole bunch of people you know nothing about and who couldn't care less. Addictive, I tell ya.

In other news, I am going to give this "being nice" thing a shot. No snarky, sarcastic comments. No punching people when they annoy me. I'm even willing to refrain from correcting people's grammar or spelling mistakes. Maybe even not throw sharp objects on them when they make repetitive noises like tapping fingers on the table and the such. Gosh, it'll be like a whole other me.

German exam tomorrow. Und ich habe kaum etwas gelernt.

Okay bye.

We're in April?!

I can't believe how fast time is flying by.

Where the hell did the first 3 months go? I really can't remember.

What have I been doing? So many things i wanted to do but didn't.

Hmmmph.

Also I wanna be done with exams. grefet.

Stranger!

2009-03-24T06:58:00.003+02:00

Wow its been long since i last posted, I feel like a stranger. Well lately I noticed that I was attacked by several bloggers (no names included)(saed and farah)! what else is new in my life?
I screwed in uni, I found out that i'm addicted to online games, I cut my hair short, I wear boxers not panties, I prefer females (oooh I have a special someone in my life, she is all the dreams i can think of :P), And I'm a bit crazy about her. Well lets call her dream girl for confidentiality. Dream girl is ...*drum roll* sweet for a start, deep, philosophical (when we're in the mood), funny, and lots of other stuff but I'm kinda shy to talk about that a bit.
Btw i'm eating Martedellla and Tea.....oh oh and farah called me today morning and "I!" yes "I!!" gave her a report "I!" have wrote on my own. (I feel proud) (I feel like a very smart friend, lets call her laura for now).
In other news lately a midget attempts to make a Blog, but trust me this midget is tall enough to kick your ASS! and i might get hurt for this but i love my readers...*cockroach sounds* no but really this midget is lovely and sweet most of the times.
I'm off to uni love you all

Schönen Busen?

2009-03-23T18:03:00.003+02:00

HAHA I bet the title's gonna get all them dirty germans to this blog! Check out this video from Scrubs where Elliot (who apparently speaks fluent german!) tells dr. Cox that "Ihre Frau hat einen schönen Busen" means "you have fluid in your lungs". It doesn't. Scrubs is THE best show ever!

Here's another one for you german speakers :D

RAMBLE RAMBLE RAMBLE

2009-03-19T22:37:00.003+02:00

I'm basically posting this because certain people *cough-sa3ed-cough* are bitching about us posting. Hey its abdallah's blog, tell HIM to post. Abdallah what the hell man? I know you're busy and all bas ya3ni a post every once in a while would be nice.

I'm just gonna go ahead and type whatever goes through my head right now.

1) I've been kinda sick the past week. It's just a cold, but then for some reason, i lost my voice. and my friends are assholes, they kept making fun of me. apparently the idea of me being voiceless is just so freaking hilarious ha ha. so ya, if you're reading this, bite me. you know who you are. Ugh having that slush now was a totally bad idea.

2) Today I rode in a taxi who had the radio set to mood fm! MOOD FM! IN A TAXI! I gave the dude a hefty tip. They should make a union for taxi cabs so they become more organized and maybe give them bonuses and benefits so they'd stop torturing their poor passengers. And that stupid momayaz "special" taxi is a load of crap. it didn't make a damn difference.

3) I swear if one more company or ZAIN sends me a message reminding me of their mothers day specials I'm gonna kill someone. Efft. it's phone spam it's what it is. Everytime u think u have a new message, turns out its just another ad.

4) Do we have to buy our moms something for mothers day? is it like compulsory? I HATE HATE HATE buying gifts. i never know what to get. just today i spent like 3 hours walking around malls with a friend (which by the way is an extremely bad idea on a Thursday- wtf is up with people and malls on Thursdays?!?!) and didn't find anything in the end. so ya, gifts suck.

5) I'm going to the dead sea tomorrow woohoo. ya I'm gonna spend all my time in the sun reading and listening to my ipod. i wanna get sunburned. yaha.

6) I HATE ELECTRIC CIRCUITS.

7) I must study electric circuits. I never even attempted to study it. I'm sure it's not so bad once I study it, but the very fact of having to sit down and start understanding something I DETEST is something that I've been procrastinating for, oh I don't know, the past month. UGH! and exams are coming up.

8) i'm bored. i don't mean right now, i mean in general. i'm sick of the routine. there hasn't been anything new happening lately and it's depressing.

9) you have to see this video, it's unbelievably hilarious ! il arab nahfeh wallahi.

10) I like making lists. numbered lists. hence this list lol. I even make to-do-lists believe it or not, but i never ever do whatever it is i have to do.

5alas i've reached number 10 and i'm out of ideas.

yalla bye.

Thinking

2009-03-10T21:50:00.005+02:00

I hate pretty much all my courses this semester, except for one course I think. I have two courses with labs that require a prelab and a postlab EVERY WEEK. Not to mention the quizzes and assignments as well. And I can't finish something on time to save my life. Like right now I'm procrastinating doing 3 assignments due tomorrow.
I despise electric circuits. And it doesn't help when your lab teacher is the most boring, ridiculous human being on the face of this earth. Though admittedly, it is fun to watch him prounounce sum as zoom and equivalence as akivalnce. And the fact that he and the lab engineer hate each other's guts is all the more fun. Oh and he wears sunglasses with his white labcoat. Seriously.
Why the bloody hell are you reading this?
I sometimes get the urge to speak in a British accent.
How come people think it's okay to flood the ENTIRE street in front of their house just because they want to clean their car? You think people will be looking at your car when there are puddles of muddy water all the way up to your house? Everytime I see somebody hosing their car down (well usually it's il 7ares not the actual owner), I feel like I should say something. But I never get the courage to.
We are such a hypocritical society. It's all a load of crap. Everybody pretends. It pisses me off. I wish people would just leave each other alone. Don't you dare tell me we're more ethical or moral, because we really are not. And we're so afraid of how people might interpret out every move. I for one, have stopped caring. I'm gonna do whatever makes me happy, not what makes people who don't know me but somehow assumed they have the right to judge me.
Donuts are delicious.
I should be writing my german homework.
I have no idea what I want to do with my life. I don't think each of us has a purpose. I don't want to believe that we're wandering around aimlessly either.
I love Seinfeld.
I love Arabic poetry. And I know it's such a cliche, but I really love Nizar Qabbani's poems.
I'm gonna go.

7aki's Bag Tag

2009-02-03T07:23:00.005+02:00

I have less than an hour to start getting dressed for work (did you not know that I'm working now???-well sort of) and I should be sleeping/watching TV/straightening the catastrophe that is my hair today, but I 7aki's pleas to participate in the tag have softened my heart and got me to go look for the camera (which took some time to find) and empty my bag (again took time to find- did I mention I'm messy?) on the bed and take a picture. So here it is, work your way from the left:

1) My access card for work. It's so awesome, I feel like I'm in Alias. I keep getting in and out of the building just to use it.

2) Wrigley's gum

3) Wallet

4) Natural looks body spray

5) Nivea moisturising cream

6) Umbrella. It rained a couple of days ago, so I carried it with me, but doesn't look like it's going to rain soon.

7) Mobile.

8) A pen apparently. Don't remember putting it though.

9) Dawkins' "The God Delusion"

10) A hair clip

11) Key

12) USB

13) My iPod.

14) Some papers I need to type and stuff.

15) Chapstick.

16) An empty bottle of water.

So there you have it.

The End

P.S. googling has revealed that Americans use the term purse for a woman's bag whereas the Brits refer to it as a bag. In the UK, a purse is commonly a wallet. There's your useless piece of info 3al sobo7.

First Day

2009-02-01T20:06:00.003+02:00

Today was my first day of my two-weeks internship at a company. It really is the first time I actually do something useful during my time-off (between-semester vacation), and I'm kind of proud of that. But I am absolutely exhausted. I was there from 8.30 till 6, and the fact that I could barely get myself to sleep for two hours the night before wasn't exactly helpful. Anyway, I may continue as a part-timer after the internship, which I hope works out because I really would like to start making some money all on my own.

Yeah so that's pretty much it. Marks were supposed to be posted online today but they weren't. So I spent a good part of my day refreshing the same webpage for nothing. Meh. Ya see our uni have no problem with emailing you cafeteria lunch menus everyday, but god forbid they actually tell you when your marks will be out or when you're supposed to start uni (no really, beginning of first semester we didn't know when our first day was, and nobody would give us a straight answer)- or reply to certain disgruntled students when they send angry emails about it. E7em.

Oh well.

There's A New Contributor In Town!

Dearly beloved,

I am delighted to announce that I will be joining Abdallah (who is currently Internet-deprived HAHA) in posting on this blog from now on. Even though I do have my own blog, I feel like it has taken the "serious" direction, mostly touching up on topics like politics and the such, which I absolutely love, but every once in a while I would like to go on writing about random, personal, meaningless stuff, and I feel that doing so on Observations of a Jordanian would kind of ruin its theme. And seeing as I'm too lazy to start a new blog, I thought I'd just post here.

I hope you will enjoy the contributions. :)

Spanish Train

2009-01-02T00:44:00.002+02:00

I heard this and started thinking. people are dying too much to the extent that its like a game! Wars, Diseases, Accidents, Murder, etc.

Read the lyrics as you listen to it!

There's a Spanish train that runs between
Quadalquivir and old Seville
And at dead of night the whistle blows
And people fear she's running still...

And then they hush their children back to sleep
Lock the doors, upstairs they creep
For it is said that the souls of the dead
Fill that train ten thousand deep!!

Well a railwayman lay dying with his people by his side
His family were crying, knelt in prayer before he died
But above his head just awaiting for the dead
Was the Devil with a twinkle in his eye
Well God's not around and look what I've found
this one's mine

Just then the Lord himself appeared in a blinding flash of light
And shouted at the devil Get thee hence to endless night
But the Devil just grinned and said I may have sinned
But there's no need to push me around,
I got him first so you can do your worst
He's going underground

But I think I'll give you one more chance
Said the Devil with a smile
So throw away that stupid lance
It's really not your style
Joker is the name
Poker is the game
We'll play right here on this bed,
And then we'll bet for the biggest stakes yet
The souls of the dead

And I said Look out, Lord, he's going to win,
The sun is down and the night is riding in,
That train is dead on time
many souls are on the line
Oh Lord, he's going to win

Well the railwayman he cut the cards
and he dealt them each a hand of five
And for the Lord he was praying hard
For that train he'd have to drive...
Well the Devil he had three aces and a king
And the Lord he was running for a straight
He had the queen and the knave and the nine and ten of spades
All he needed was the eight

And then the Lord he called for one more card
But he drew the diamond eight
And the Devil said to the son of God
I believe you've got it straight
So deal me one for the time has come
To see who'll be the king of this place
But as he spoke from beneath his cloak
He slipped another ace

Ten thousand souls was the opening bid
And it soon went up to fifty-nine
But the Lord didn't see what the Devil did
and he said that suits me fine
I'll raise you high to hundred and five
And forever put an end to your sins
But the Devil let out a mighty shout, My hand wins

And I said Lord, oh Lord, you let him win
The sun is down and the night is riding in
That train is dead on time, many souls are on the line
Oh Lord, don't let him win...

Well that Spanish train still runs between
Quadalquivir and old Seville
And at dead of night the whistle blows
And people hear she's running still

And far away in some recess
The Lord and the Devil are now playing chess
The Devil still cheats and wins more souls
And as for the Lord, well, he's just doing his best

And I said Lord, oh Lord, you've got to win
The Sun is down and the night is riding in
That train is still on time
Oh my soul is on the line
Oh Lord, you've got to win

A coffee Riddle!

2008-12-19T09:27:00.003+02:00

On Cups and Kilos Group on Facebook they have posted this! A small riddle:

We will start out with the coffee man…find the man in the beans posted on the wall…circle him and post it back on the group page…then answer the questions and riddles posted on the news segment of the group page and post them on our wall… whoever has the most correct answers by Christmas eve… will be our WINNER! Have fun!!
1- In what country was it legal for a woman to file for divorce if her husband did not supply her with the daily quota of coffee?
2-Who obtained the first documented license to sell coffee in Massachusetts Colony?
3-What was coffee first known in Europe as?
4-Another name that is often synonymous with coffee is Mocha. Mocha was actually a port that coffee was shipped from but do you know where that port is located?
5-If you ask for a 'latte' in Italy, you won't get coffee. What will you get instead?
6-Where did the word cappuccino originate from? (country and meaning )
7-What does the word “tip” stands for?
8-Which philosopher supposedly drank up to fifty cups of coffee per day?
9- A man found a fly in his coffee and sent his coffee back to the kitchen. When the waiter returned with a new cup of coffee, the man took a sip and immediately knew that the waiter had just removed the fly and given him back the same cup of coffee. How did the man know that he wasn`t served a fresh cup of coffee?
10- An finally…How can you throw a ball as hard as you can and have it come back to you, even if it doesn't hit anything, there is nothing attached to it, and no one else catches or throws it?

After finding the hidden man like I did, I had to Answer the questions which I did (researched on the net) and came up with these these answers:

3. Arabian Wine
4. Yemen
5.Glass of milk
6.Capuchin Friar (Italy)
7. To Insure Promptness

10.Throw it straight up on the Air

And then the next day the Cups and Kilos group posted this on their news wall:

The study of the world

2008-12-14T00:07:00.004+02:00

Everything in the world can be studied, Ideas generated, theories invented, Equations derived. And I want to study, I want to generate, I want to invent, I want to derive. I don't really care if its true or not, I just want my philosophy to speak.

The world cannot be really described is it because it's beyond the abilities of our minds? The world is a variable moving, evolving, growing, physically deforming. The World is a physical equation with change as a constant. Think about it change is always present in our daily life but nothing is ever radical enough to be called a variable in our life.

Change is present in a specific quantity, it is a constant. It is a linear slope, maybe not exactly linear but maybe almost.

If change was a variable then change can be mathematically zero, a zero mean no change at all. But have we ever lived a day without change. Daily disasters happen, people die, and we evolve.

I'm really not sure about what I'm writing but a philosophical view is never invalid. Evolution is a growth, growth depends on time. So in my equation time is independent variable, growth is a dependant variable.

So imagine this on a graph:
Time on the X-axis
Growth on the Y-axis
Change is the slope

Philosophically
Change = Change in Growth / Change in Time

But can't we say a change in growth of the world(not physically of coarse but mentally; according to all beings) is evolution?

> Change = Evolution / Change in Time

Let me define Evolution with an example; Why we invent planes in a specific time why didn't we invent it as soon as the world was discovered. The mind of a human being evolved as it is. If the mind of humans did not evolve why not invent everything that is to be invented when time began, they had everything they need from materials to work force. Why did they build a pyramid not a skyscraper?

Top 8 Blonde Jokes

2008-12-11T02:48:00.003+02:00

#1 : Knock Knock Jokes
Q: Why can't you tell blondes knock-knock jokes?
A: Because they go answer the door.

#2 The Other Side
A blonde and a brunette are on opposite sides of a river. The brunette wants to get across. She yells across to the blonde, "Hey, how do I get to the other side?" The blonde shakes her head and yells back "People like you really piss me off. You ARE on the other side!"

#3 Parking
I pulled into the parking lot of a crowded supermarket the other day and rolled down the windows to make sure my new Labrador puppy had some fresh air. He was sprawled out on the backseat and wanted to make sure he understood that I wanted him to remain there and not jump over my seats. I walked backward away from the car constantly saying, "Stay. Good boy. You stay there. STAY. STAY."
Just then a pretty blonde lady walked by and said, "You know, you won't have that problem if you just put the car in PARK."

#4 The Library
A blonde stormed up to the front desk of a library and said, "I have a complaint!" "Yes, ma'am?" "I borrowed a book last week and it was horrible!" "What was wrong with it?" "It had way too many characters and there was no plot whatsoever!" The librarian nodded and said, "Ah. So you must be the person who took our phone book."

#5 Dreams
A blonde keeps having the same weird dream, so she goes to her psychologist. psychologist: "What is your dream about?" Blonde: "I am being chased by a vampire..." psychologist: "So, where are you in this dream?" Blonde: "I am running in a hallway." psychologist: "Then what happens?" Blonde: "Well, that's the weird thing. In every single dream, the same thing happens. I always come to a door,
but it won't budge!" psychologist: "Does the door have any letters on it?" Blonde: "Yes." psychologist: "And what do these letter spell?" Blonde:
"P.. U... L... L..."

#6 Name Tag
Q: What did the blonde customer say after reading the buxom waitress' name tag?

A: "'Debbie'...that's cute. What did you name the other one?''

#7 The Ventriloquist
A young ventriloquist is touring the clubs and one night he's doing a show in a small town in Arkansas. With his dummy on his knee, he starts going through his usual dumb blonde jokes when a blonde woman in the 4th row stands on her chair and starts shouting: "I've heard enough of your stupid blonde jokes. What makes you think you can stereotype women that way? What does the color of a person's hair have to do with her worth as a human being? It's guys like you who keep women like me from being respected at work and in the community and from reaching our full potential as a person. Because you and your kind continue to perpetuate discrimination against not only blondes, but women in general and all in the name of humor!" The embarrassed ventriloquist begins to apologize, and the blonde yells, "You stay out of this, mister! I'm talking to that little shit on your knee."

#8 School Girl
A girl came skipping home from school one day. "Mummy, Mummy," she yelled. "We were counting today, and all the other kids could only count to four, but I counted to 10. See? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,10!" "Very good," said her mother. "Is it because I'm blonde, Mummy?" "Yes, it's because you're blonde," her mother replied.

The next day, the girl came skipping home from school. "Mummy, Mummy," she yelled, "we were saying the alphabet today, and all the other kids could only say it to D, but I said it to G. See? A, B, C, D, E, F, G!" "Very good," said her mother. "Is it because I'm blonde, Mummy?" Yes, pumpkin, it's because you're blonde."

The next day the girl came skipping home from school. "Mummy, Mummy," she yelled, "we were in gym class today, and when we showered, all the other girls had flat chests, but I have these!" And she lifted her tank top to reveal a pair of 36Cs. "Very good," said her embarrassed mother. "Is it because I'm blonde, Mummy?" "No... it's because you're 25."

The Process of Popcorn

2008-12-07T10:32:00.007+02:00

Okay, It was friday morning, and I got some new movies so I decided why not watch Eagle Eye. But I was also in the mood for popcorn, so I went into the kitchen and got the popcorn seeds? (I don't know what they're called) So i put them in and left them , so:

1) LEAVE THE POPCORN UNSUPERVISED ON THE OVEN!
2) BURN THE POPCORN!

3) TAKE THE HOT POT AND TAKE IT OUTSIDE BECAUSE THERE WAS TOO MUCH SMOKE!

4) THROW THE POPCORN OUT!
5) START CLEANING THE POT!

6) TRY HARDER!

7) STILL TRYING TO CLEAN

*Yes I did put the same photo again, thats just because I really tried cleaning it, maybe I spent an hour and a half. And believe me its hard at some point I wanted to throw out the pot. I was forced to clean it!!! Call the Department of Child Services hehehe.

8)(the next day) POT IS CLEAN!

My Mexican Dream

2008-11-29T23:58:00.004+02:00

I dreamt I was with saed and we were walking on a highway then we pass a really modern amazing gas station (and we need to use the bathroom) but the line for the modern station is long so we move on and after find we find a shitty station.

There is a man standing in front of the bathroom he is big and dark so saed goes in and the dark man follows him but saed never comes out, even though the black guy comes out.

So I go in after saed and after looking for him for some time. I feel I need to use the bathroom. so I'm in the bathroom, its that dark bronze color and it has no compartments, there is only a small window with bars on it. Then the dark guy comes in and after him three innocent girls.... so I'm in the middle of my thing (lool it was a number two), i start running pushing a girl on the floor, crying out to warn them, and the black guy starts to run after me.

I just remember flashes of him following me EVERYWHERE, then at some point I see hani and laura. I remember it was night and us three were next to a lake or something, and beside us a bush labyrinth. So we decide to go in, then all of a sudden we find the dark guy and all of us start running, each in a different direction after running for a while i find my way out of the labyrinth, and i find hani. but we never saw laura, we decide to look for her then out of nowhere the dark man jumps at hani pushing him into the lake (lool irony) and then as I look behind me I see him only centimeters away from me and I run off. cross the bridge to find myself on the boarders.

I enter a small spanish town, and dark dude still behind me. And in this town there are a lot tall houses with small spaces between them and a lot of balconies. At this point I woke up so I forced myself to sleep again. and I remember that I was jumping between the houses it was fun but I was still annoyed that the guy was still behind me. Finally I talk to a thin guy dressed in white with waxed hair and I wake up! :P

Days of our life

2008-11-27T01:10:00.004+02:00

Lately my life couldn't get any worse and the worst part in this situation is that I don't really know what is bothering me really! Each day I create an excuse. I'm sick of routine waking up in the morning going to studying leaving eating going out then back home to sleep. I've been living a day too many times. Studying is hard, stressful, but when a person wants to view the situation : how should we live life? should we enjoy life or live to work. and love is an aimless road, we go through it blinded by our genitals. home is boring though warm on the coldest nights. And each time we close our eyes we listen to the "ring" of emptiness, we are empty!

Disturbing or Amazing - YOU be the judge!

Is He PMSing? He-MS?

2008-11-23T22:22:00.003+02:00

Males do feel someimes that black cloud hanging like a b**** above your head? According to studies you might be having one of these days "He-MS" or Scientifically known as Irritable Male Syndrome - IMS.

The Irritable Male Syndrome (IMS) is a recently-coined term for a set of symptoms thought to be caused by a drop in testosterone levels in male mammals. It is a striking feature in male seasonally breeding mammals associated with the end of the mating season. These symptoms are similar to those of the so-called male menopause (also known as viropause or andropause).

In humans IMS is defined as involving the hormonal, physiological, and chemical changes that occur in all men. These changes are considered to affect hormonal, physical, psychological, interpersonal, sexual, and nutritional aspects of men's health.

IMS can afflict men of any age. It can start out like PMS but that at its worst, the man becomes totally out of touch with reality, is literally out of his mind, and convinced he's the only sane one around for miles, that everybody else has gone mad. Ladies, sounds like any man you know?

I know there are some fellows who'll read this and shake their heads in disbelief. Especially the macho ones, who won't admit they go through periods, pardon the pun, when they feel depressed.

Or anxious. Or bad-tempered. And they can't understand why. Some men might appear quite schizophrenic - one moment they're just as lovable as teddy bears, the next, you don't want to be in the same room with them.

I want to talk but I don't know how

2008-11-23T22:05:00.004+02:00

Earlier this weak I was talking to a friend of mine about "friendship" and then she shocked me with a comeback that I am too picky. I wasn't shocked as much as I was thinking it was out of place. I was telling my friend something I noticed about a friend of ours and what I don't like about the friend we were talking about, even though I love my friends everyone has something annoying in them. I am a really honest person and even though I used to gossip sometimes in the past but now I've stopped, the only thing I would say about a person is something I would tell that person in his/her face. That's not the point, anyway we were talking and after I left I thought to myself "Is honesty a good or bad?". To me I like people to be honest with me, but not all people accept honesty! I might think that I don't like this thing about this guy and stuff like that but I'm not saying I'm perfect either. I really have a couple of things that I hate about myself:

1) I can't really publicly speak! I get nervous and I start to prepare myself to any situation that I might face.

2) I'm lazy! like I want my license but I don't want to go through the whole process, Its too ....ugh!

3) I am moody (I'll post about this next time)

I fear Cool Aid :P
