I’m Home..
Just got in.. Missed you folks..
Had a Blast with my bro and great friends..
And memories to last a lifetime ;)
Got a glowing Lancaster tan..
Missed the Shaggy concert hehe don’t ask :P
Weather was spectacular.. cool breeze day and night..
The whole Hotel staff managed to find out I was as sick as a puppy when I first checked in, to the extent that I got a call from the clinic asking about my health.. the second day I got a call from the Clinic checking on me again.. insisted on checking me out and providing meds.. and no i wasn’t even charged ! seriously amazing service..
Ok.. I’m so tired.. gonna go rest now..
How was your weekend my lovelies ?
p.s.
Header is a shot I took at the beach yesterday…
Couldn’t resist.. it’s such a holiday pic :P
The Randomness
May 15, 2007
- Family obligations
- Lotsa hospital visits
- Sis got into a major car accident, she’s ok now
- 5 of the D family members where on hospital beds at the same time the past week
- Again I got into another car accident myself yesterday and just like my last and only one.. I was BLOODY parked at the traffic light
- I bumped into 4 ppl that I hadn’t seen in over a minimum of 10 years the past week or so
- I quit my job 2 weeks ago but I still go to work.. kinda.. boss seriously thinks I’m kidding and taking a vacation and coming back later
- I always loved french and hated the way it sounded when I weakly spoke it with a horrid British twang, but lately I have been indulging in the sound of it and all I have to say is french: la langue de l’amour *sigh*
- Bro was teaching me how to pick a lock last night
- everyone in life has a certain pattern they follow.. it’s repetitive.. we think we redo the same things.. but when you sit back and look at the big picture.. it’s just the way we are.. and that will never change coz we seek our comfort zone.. and that’s where we’ve been before and know we are safe.
- I should never go to the hairdressers when I’m in a blaaah mood for a quick fix.. I usually give my stylist complete freedom over my hair and look.. but what if one day they mess up.. big time..
- Everything is a choice in life except for death and even that is an option lately.. but the thing is you never know you’re making the wrong choice until one day you wake up and you think “oh sh*t what have I done”
- I think I’m at war with my nails
- When I leave work and go through the shops to the parking lot.. there’s a complete silence.. and the echo of my heals tapping away on the floor is so rhythmic and loud that one of the shop owners always nods his head to the tapping as if he were listening to a song on the radio, while he cleans the glass display counters, every single time !
Enough for now..
Mama D’s random advice of the day:
“go to the bathroom before you sleep”
DaDiYo’s advice of the day:
“don’t talk to strangers when you go out”
(seriously they really do say that to me at this age hehhe)
Dear God,
November 20, 2006
Disclaimer: This is not a mockery of my God.. This is the way we communicate.. We are close that way.. I’m no Joan of Arc.. But I sometimes like speaking my mind to others.. even God.. and if you can’t handle that I’m writing a letter to God or how I chose to express myself toward God.. then don’t read on… and no hate comments.. mo nagi9ny o maly khulg.. Just deal with it..
Dear God,
Remember this morning when I called my Dad ? well actually it’s past midnight now.. so I mean yesterday..
Let me just rewrite it to save you the hassle of looking it up:
DaDiYo: Hala 7abebty.. ya a7la 9aba7 khair
DiiGMaa: 7imdila 3al salama baba.. I hope your well.. you cold ? I was worried you’ll freeze.. how is he ? plz tell me.. did you talk to him ?
DaDiYo: allah esalmich 7abebty.. wallah yabooch I’m in shock.. he’s worse than I imagined.. and tomorrows surgery doesn’t look very promising after days in a coma state.. The doctors say there’s a 10% chance of success..
DiiGMaa: I’m sure he can hear you Baba.. I’m gonna pray for him but can you say good bye for me just incase.. plz tell him I love him..
DaDiYo: Inshalah 7abebty I had a long talk with him.. I know he can hear me.. and I told him we all want him to stay strong.. I’ll send your love..
Well, I know through out the course of the past year you’ve been trying to show me that life is tuff and nothing is eternal.. I know you’re trying to make me strong by exposing me to the harsh test of life.. (if the word trying offends you.. I’m sorry.. I’m just short on word choices today.. You know me better.. You know how I get all choked up when I’m upset) But anyways.. Don’t you think you should take it down a notch and give me a break.. I mean there are other ppl you know.. I ain’t special.. I get it.. So I’m asking for a vacation here.. I won’t be sinful and I won’t even go anywhere.. Just need some time off from your harsh learning’s.. and this so called life that’s merely a temporary layover till we make it over there… wherever you are.. That’s if I even earn enough credits through good deeds to get myself a ticket there.. I’ll settle for world traveler at this rate.. This letter is probably not gonna get me past baggage claim right ?? Well anyways you taught me to be compassionate and forgiving.. and plz feel for me today and ignore my bitching (oppppss sorry God I don’t mean any disrespect.. but again my word choice is limited today and that term seems most appropriate for my current state of being.. remember forgiving and compassionate)..
And God, my real reason for this letter is to make my Uncle better.. You know how I always say “God plz make this happen for me and I’ll become a nun and dedicate my life to you but in an Islamic way” ok I figured you knew I was just trying to manipulate you and I was being all selfish.. But this time.. I ask you to save him for my Fathers sake.. And my Uncles children and his Grandchildren and his Great Grandchildren.. (Ya7aila my Uncle and the 3 generations he has taken care of).. Yeah.. Could you do that for me God, Big Boss of all Man Kind, the Creator of all that is in this world and life.. Could ya ? For my Dad’s sake..
If not, then I understand, C’est la vie.. and all..
Ok I’ll let you go back to the other billions of ppl you’re looking over.. and Kudos for being you (I’m kissing up now aren’t I ?.. aren’t I supposed to anyways)..
Ok one tiny thing.. If I make it to heaven.. Can my little patch in Eden be central park ? And can you throw in the city around it.. Coz to be honest I don’t know if I can handle the countryside for all eternity…
All my love..
DiiGMaa
P.S.
Compassion and forgiveness, the two things you taught me best..
and if you do decide to take him.. be gentle.. take care of him plz..
UPDATE: Mum says my Gran’ma (her mum) is in the ICU too..
Dear God,
Please…
