Versed

Who am I
to experience a burst
of star formation?

I know this—

after the first rush
of enthusiasm

any idea
recedes and dims.

Woke Up

The thing is, i was waiting for that one particular surreal thing to happen…

It didnt, and the fact that it didn’t woke me up a little!

Mrs. Cold

A new friend of mine introduced me to this amazing band. I’m hiring them to play my life’s soundtrack!

Thank you :)

The 14th Of September Was My Birthday!

Well… I thought this year my birthday would be very special.

I usually never celebrate my birthday, but this year i wasnt expecting a celebration more than just being with the one man i love.

On my birthday my father woke me up and told me to meet him for breakfast at the new place n st.9 La Gourmandise, i got up took a shower grabbed my laptop and was on my way… we sat there from 1pm till 5pm :)

Then i went back home and sat there thinking of what to do…( i was planning on accompanying myself to el leila el kebeer, the day before my birthday i went to buy a ticket but they were all sold out!) so while sitting there i received a call from a friend wishing me a happy birthday and asking abt how am i going to celebrate it, so i told her that i was willing to go to the ballet but i found no tickets and that am trying to find something interesting for me to do!

Then she was like “Oh well that’s no problem, i have an extra ticket for todays ballet!”  :))))))))) yaaaaaay!

How unexpected out of the blues is that :D

so i got all dressed up wore a black short dress, high heels and black stockings (normally i don’t do short and i don’t do heels!) but i did because it was my birthday and i wanted to treat myself and so i did :)

My pa lent me his car for extra comfort on my special day :)

After the Ballet i took off and was on my way home but i called Cindy she was home so i told her i’ll pass by.

Cindy ordered KFC for us coz i was hungry, we sat and chatted a little, Yasmeen was freakishly sick  and Mimi gave me my 3edeya it has been a very long time since i last received a 3edeya :))) It was in brand new crisp fives :) it was such a beautiful touching gesture :)))

On my birthday i received a very the least i can say beautiful sms from cindy my unbelievably special one of a kind friend that made me very emotional.. it said…

Thank you for being there when i was happy, in love,angry, sad, pmsing, crazy, hurt, in pain, sick, ill, heart broken, out of love, rational and not :), wondering, afraid, terrified, on the road, off the road, cursing, dancing, learning to salsa or to ride a bike, eating sushi or imma being, being under a sky full of stars, being with me while i was writing the hardest email, blog post, phone sms and the hardest talk..

Thank you for being you..i love you so much, i appreciate your existence so much, thank you for choosing to be my best friend, my sister, my well of secrets and for letting me in yours… Ive told u b4 i want my kids to learn alot from u and i still stand my ground..everyday i learn something from you and from your pure soul ..b7bk ya Rana ya 7bibty :) kol sana w enti f3ln tayyba w 7nyna w gamila :) mmwah

Through the whole day i’ve been day dreaming abt unexpected things and out of this world scenarios that could take place on my day…

The only unexpected that actually took place was the extra ticket, the 3eddeya :D and receiving many unexpected birthday wishes that put a smile on my face…  i cant really say i was actually HAPPY that day, but i was surely very GRATEFUL :)

I’m now 24!

Thank You.

Sunday Morning

Sunday morning, rain is falling
Steal some covers, share some skin
Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable
You twist to fit the mold that I am in
But things just get so crazy
Living life gets hard to do
And I would gladly hit the road, get up and go if I knew
That someday it would lead me back to you
That someday it would lead me back to you

That may be all I need
In darkness, she is all I see
Come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow on Sunday morning
And I never want to leave

Fingers trace your every outline
Paint a picture with my hands
Back and forth we sway like branches in a storm
Change the weather still together when it ends

That may be all I need
In darkness she is all I see
Come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow on Sunday morning
And I never want to leave

But things just get so crazy, living life gets hard to do
Sunday morning, rain is falling and I’m calling out to you
Singing someday it’ll bring me back to you
Find a way to bring myself back home to you

And you may not know
That may be all I need
In darkness she is all I see
Oh, come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow, driving slow (all I need, all I see)
oh yeah yeah oh yeah yeah oh yeah yeah (bones with me)
I’m a flower in your hair
yeah yeah, yeah yeah

In The Mood For Love (A Musical Reflection)

Before in the old days when people had secrets they didn’t want to share

they’d climb a mountain and find a tree

carve a hole in the tree

whisper the secret into the tree and cover the hole with mud

That way no one would discover the secret…
