Rise my hat and smile..

Just finished yesterday reading the novel “kite runner”. And for the time being, I feel stuck.. and can’t wait till I read “A thousand splendid suns”..

How can words be like that?!

"It was only a smile, nothing more. It didn’t make everything all right. It didn’t make anything all right. Only a smile. A tiny thing. A leaf in the woods, shaking in the wake of a startled bird’s flight.
But I’ll take it. With open arms. Because when spring comes, it melts the snow one flake at a time, and may be I just witnessed the first flake melting.
I ran. A grown man running with a swarm of screaming children. But I didn’t care. I ran with the wind blowing in my face, and a smile as wide as the valley of Panjsher on my lips.
I ran.”

From a FB application

My birth date means:
"Things don't come easy to you, even though you have the potential and the caliber. Spiritually inclined, you tend to take a step back from the world in introspection. You're very sensitive to what's going on around you, yet you remain composed. Although you are brilliant, it may take you a while to find your niche. Your creativity is supreme, but it sometimes makes it hard for you to get things done."

Today's Quote

I read this quote on a friend's facebook profile status, and found a reason to smile..


"Some joys are better expressed in silence as a smile holds more meaning than words.
I was asked if I enjoy having you in my life, I just smiled"

Recap


I really envy such women who wear micro skirt, mini skirt.. which ever skirt shorter than mine and do not feel cold. I am wearing my whole cupboard now and freezing. I would understand if they are heading an air conditioned place, but open area?! .. its irresistibly forcing to question!

*****

Last Friday was my birthday. Again a very moderate day, may be bellow moderate. No celebrations, no festivals, no balloons.. Just my mother baked Basbosa, which I hate.. so I only got to cutting and distributing.. fair enough in my birthday I think.
The night before was a night shift, which ended on the morning of January 11. You can immediately reckon I’ve passed the day sleeping and woke up to cut Basbosa to my family then natural normalities of my current life, a.k.a onlining.

*****

That would take us back to work. Last week, I had to change my team. Now I’m working with different faces everyday. And everyday I tell myself, hopefully this would be the start of the remaining days before leaving them.
See, I’m not compatible with: shallow minds, bragging identities, exaggerating souls, snobbish creatures, dominating personalities, tasteless brains and the so call, high life people.
:D you can now guess who am I compatible with. Lol, and how on earth I’m trying to survive with such easy-mesy new fellow colleagues.

Last December the 28th, was this blog’s 3rd birthday.
Time flies.
I admit being a horrible blog owner. But, dear blog, thank God you are 3 and still counting. Life is not easy pal, and you have to suffer as well. Me go to work, you wait.
But above all, we are still friends, you know that. I didn’t forget you, neither did I forget your birthday day, but I wasn’t in the mood. Things go wrong sometimes, things go partially wrong.. mm.. the other way only other times.. and things doesn’t go at all the rest of the times.
So, from now on, I don’t promise to be as before.. mm.. this years’ phase is certainly not the writing mood. I wish it won’t extend. Because last time I had it, it cost me a talent to fade away. Mm.. you know I can write, but always me the lazy person.. always me, the .. me I guess.
I will try.. don’t worry. I shouldn’t forget writing, I shouldn’t do.
Thank you for allowing me to invest in you, the previous 3 years.. and hopefully others to come.
Happy birthday dear blog. Happy birthday dear void, who ain’t a void any longer.

Movies?!
Ah-haha.
Well, looks like the movies phase is extending a little bit longer.
Last vacation, that’s practically today the last day in it, I’ve watched 3 more movies.. tada.

1. Love actually: a booming blast. I loved it. And loved to believe love is all around us. Love is really all around us.

2. Finding Neverland: that’s what I call a quality movie picture. The start is a bit dull, to be frankly the 1st half is extremely boring. But the 2nd half, ever since the writer said he’s going to name one of his characters “Peter”, I reconnected the incidents and began to understand what is going on, and hence started the magic. Ya.. I cried my eyes out at the end of it. The young boy’s acting is way from heaven. Wow and applause.

3. The notebook: if one thing I’d thank this movie for, would be allowing me to discover that I’m a normal girl with normal feelings and I do like romantic movies!. Hehe *devilish look*. Mm.. well.. it might be an average romance, and it might be built upon betrayal –as one of my friends described the story- but at the end, I’m keen for the elderly human part. Its amazingly beautiful. Mm.. whom would we grow old with?.. that’s a question, time would only know its answer.
If I ever got to choose, I’ll instantly choose a life similar to this.

*****

I am really wasting so much time playing iThink on facebook. Its so funny .. and.. I like it :P

*****

And by the end of today’s topic, we conclude today’s edition of “Blue’s insider”.
See ya again, wonder when.. wonder how, where or why.. but it sure would come.. as long as air is entering and leaving… a.k.a.. we are living and breathing :)
God bless

Today's words of wisdom.

"Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaking suspicion love actually is all around."

From the movie "Love Actually".

ME

I am neither a princess nor an angel,
I am neither a princess nor an angel,
I am neither a princess nor an angel,
I am just me,
And “me” is simply a human being.

Words of wisdom..

Not all people deserve to be kept in your heart,
not even 1/100 of them.

Movie time..

Didn’t I say long time ago I am into phases?
So guess what.. this weekend I was into watching movies again~ .. and I think I’ve watched a great deal, although I’ll never catch up with the pace… anyways, so here you are..


1. Ratatouille: thought I loved the plot.. I hated the rat :D .. there is something with me.. I feel disgusted from “animals” .. even in cartoon movies..
I didn’t like the long nose of his. I didn’t like he eating cheese. I didn’t like the French “ocordion” at the back ground..
Overall: 6/10

2. I am legend: what a horrible movie! I just hate the every second of it.. I HATE this time of sci-fi.. what’s with freeing earth people? What’s with extinction? Forget it.. there ain’t UFO’s in the outer space.. there ain’t diseases that will kill earth..
We will be living till the judgment day.. SO STOP THE NONSENCE!
Overall: big fat zero/10

3. Premonition: I’m not in love with Sandra Bullock, neither the story is original. For long, script writers discussed the “destiny” vs. visions..
Overall: 7/10

4. Bee movie: and how the cartoon movie to bee :P .. I loved it from head to toe. People it’s a good laugh.. thought it’s a bit similar to AntZ, but just go ahead and watch :D
Overall: 9/10

5. The terminal: didn’t I say before that Tom Hanks is the best?..
Overall: 9/10

6. Happy feet: its nice, but a one time watch movie. Mm.. I liked the penguins especially from Madagascar.. but here ain’t that funny, and I didn’t like the “each penguin should have a song for the heart” idea.. 2alsha awi :S
Overall: 7/10



And that concludes today’s round up, may be I’d watch Déjà vu.. and may be not.. not sure.. not sure, but sure will update you if I did.

Today's mood song..


Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight.

You're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
Touches my foolish heart.

Yes you're lovely, never, ever change
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
Touches my foolish heart.

Yes you're lovely, never, ever change
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight.
Just the way you look tonight.
Darling
Just the way you look tonight.

Michael Bubble -- The way you look tonight

2007 is over? .. 2008 is..?

So yesterday marked the end of 2007. And was a beautiful day.

I’ve did a crisis at work a day earlier, and no matter that the rest of my team had to bang their head to the wall trying to fix what I’ve done, they were all happy, cheerful, patient and smiling. We made a small party at 12. You know it was our last night shift that extending from 31th night till 1st of Jan’s morning. So we bought a big cake, few balloons, party hats, whistles, Santa’s caps’ and cameras.
Was nice festive in such a warm environment.
I love these people.

2007 was one of the best years I’ve seen. True.
Started by my visit to Luxor and Aswan, a long waited trip. Then I don’t recall specific moments.. but may be finished college, worked… much stable in my life than I thought I would, el 7amdo lelah. And still trying to work on my life even more.. and who knows what 2008 is holding for us ;) ..

I’m listening to “Enrico Macias”. One of my colleagues at work offered to give me his discography. Enrico, That man got elegant voice and marvelous music. So I’m feeling content starting my vacation listening to him… in addition to other movies I got .. w eeeh… lets haf fun.


I loved 2007, and wish 2008 I’d love you too..


-------
PS: May you and all your loved ones have a delightful new year :)
