Little White Lies- part 2
Although only 2 people commented, i was happy! I would really like feedback! if you have any suggestions please share. I know it's kind of boring now but i have to get these few events covered so you'll understand the story later on. (Btw, all the events that im writing about right now have really happened.) Buckle up for todays post....
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Although it was a school day, I stayed up late that night a7ati Muneera. I knew that I wasn’t her mother but I considered her a friend. I didn’t want my friend to do something I’m sure she would regret. I wondered how she could be fooled. Seriously she should know better! What kind of boy that claimes he “loved” her would make her do such a thing? My mind went on and on and without noticing, I fell asleep.
The next morning, when I saw Muneera at school, I was eager to know what had happened. I couldn’t ask right away since we were sitting with a few friends and she told no one about this but me. I looked at her wondering if she did it or not. I was really hoping she didn’t. But knowing Muneera, I knew she was easily fooled when it came to “love”
A while later, I finally had the chance to talk to her.
Me: sh9ar?!?!
Muneera: ma 9ar shay.
Me: shloon ya3ni ma 9ar shay?!?!
Muneera: bs. Ma 9ar shay.
Me: ya3ni you didn’t do anything?
Muneera: la2. Kent 7adi 5ayfa fa Rakan gali 5ala9 mo lazim. O eb 59oo9 Fara7 uhwa behadid’ha etha ra7at 7ag il ma5far eb yil3an 5air’ha.
Although I felt relieved to know that nothing happened between Muneera and Rakan, I hated how she was so easily tricked. I could clearly see that Rakan made all of this up.
A few weeks later, I had a request on MSN. I looked at the email and it did not look familiar but I accepted thinking it was one of my friend who may have made a new email account. I didn’t give much thought to the email and only talked to them when they began talking to me.
xxxxx@hotmail.com: Ahlain J
Hayoun: Hi
Hayoun: mino ma3ay?
xxxxx@hotmail.com: ma3ach A7mad, ila min il bowling.
Hayoun: asif i5ooy wrong email.
xxxxx@hotmail.com: asif sam7eeni.
Hayoun: no problem J
xxxxx@hotmail.com: entay min el Kuwait?
Hayoun: Ee ;p
xxxxx@hotmail.com: ee 7ilo, 7ilo. Ana min il s3oodiya.
Hayoun: wilni3im.
xxxxx@hotmail.com: allah yin3am eb 7alich.
Hayoun: 3ad I’m going to Jeddah with my family for a short break we have coming up enshallah.
xxxxx@hotmail.com: 9ij wallah? That’s where I live ;) 7ayakoum !
Our conversation went on but it was very 3adi. Nothing intense.
One day I was going through a few emails that were spamming my inbox. I came across and email sent to me by one of my second cousins. The email was nothing impressive but when I looked at all the people the email was sent to, I can say I was surprised.
I realized that one of the emails that this email was sent to was the email that had added me on MSN! This had to be someone I knew somehow. The email that I had received in my inbox was sent from one of my second cousins living in Jeddah. I remembered the boy telling me his name was A7mad so I figured out who he was. He was one of my second cousins that I barely knew only saw in special occasions.
The next time I talked to him on MSN, I brought this up.
Hayoun: enta esim omik Flana Al-X ?
xxxxx@hotmail.com: Ee
Hayoun: ee 3yal 3iraftik ana bent Flana. A9eerlik min b3eed.
xxxxx@hotmail.com: ee 3iraftich! Shloonich?
The convo was very short and brief and that was the last conversation I had with him. I knew that him adding me was no coincidence. Where did he get my email from? Out of all people how could he have guessed mine? This was not possible. I let it go and did not worry about it and I never brought this subject upon anyone.
The short break finally came and my family and I were in Jeddah. We were staying at a close relatives house.
One day while I was watching a movie with my cousin, my mother told me that we were going to visit her cousin who was A7mad’s mother.
Mama: Yalla Haya libsay binrou7 ensalim 3ala Flana (om a7mad).
Me (mindamja bil movie): laaa mama please abi a6ali3 the movie!
Mama: yalla libsay when we get back kamleeh.
Me: mamaaaa mabii!!
Mama: enzain kaifich.
My mom went whole I stayed watching the movie. When my mother got back, she didn’t seem to happy.
Mama: Haya ta3alay abi akalmich
Me: inshallah
Mama: whats going on between you and A7mad?
Me: mino A7mad?
Mama: weld Flana.
Me: mako. Marra he added me on MSN solafna shway o bs.
Mama: bs?
Me: ee hatha ila 9ar.
Mama: 3yal laish oma kalimatni o galatli enich wa7da 8aleelat adab o ena il shabab yitkalimoon 3anich bil dewaween?
Me: (extremely shocked): shino?! Laish 8aleelat adab? Ana eshsawait? Eshgilt?!?!
Mama: tgool ena kalamtay weldha A7mad o im6ay7a il miyana ma3ah o you send him links of inappropriate things. And guys talk about you bil dewaniya enich bent mo mitrabya.
Me: la mama! Walla I didn’t do that! And what did I do wrong for them to talk about me like that?
Mama: madri bs e7na ma rabainach 3alal chithi. Fashalteena.
My mom ga6at 3allay ba3ad 7achi. I tried convincing her that I had done nothing and all of what he had told them was a lie. It really hurt seeing her not believe me.
During the whole trip, it was awkward between me and my mother. We barley talked and when we did it wa sonly because we had to communicate about something. I could tell that she was extremely disappointed in me.
It was not only my mom that A7mad’s mother had talked about me to, she had also talked about me to a relative that I didn’t know too well since we had just met. I was mad. I felt ma’6looma. I was mad that A7mad had told his mother this lie.
I was mad that his mother told my mother. I was mad that his mother had told other people too. I was also very upset that my mother didn’t believe me. I am her daughter! How could she take that ladies words over mine? Didn’t she know that she had raised me well?

Little White Lies- part 1
Heeey heey heey! What’s up people? Ok so this idea randomly popped into my head. What’s this idea? I want to start writing a blog *gasp*! I’m not a blog addict but I have read a few that are good. Others are just…too cheesy. I can’t promise you that my little story will be excellent, but I promise that I will try to make it excellent. The story I’ll be telling is based on true events that I or my friends have experienced. I will be adding a few things but I’ll make sure they are realistic ;p Oh and I’m open to suggestions :D ( beginning may be boring but were getting there so please wait). Please post your opinion even if you don’t like it. Buckle up, here we go . . .
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You know how we’re told that our friends reflect on us? As kids were “aaah what the heck, no way can anyone change me”. But now we understand what was meant by that.
Have you ever heard of “a97ab il soo2”? I’m sure most of you have but for those of you who haven’t, they are the friends that reflect on us in a negative way. They make or lead us to do things that are wrong. Lil asaf, ana i7takait eb “a97ab il soo2”.
First day of the 10th grade can’t say I was too excited about it but then again, seeing my friends after that 3 month break wasn’t so bad either.
I heard a voice behind me screaming my name. “Hayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!”. I knew that voice, I was sure it was Sara!
Me: Heeeeey!!
*hug*
Sara: yal kalba I miss you!!
Me: I miss you too! Ha how was LA?
Sara: LOVED IT!
Sara went on and on about her trip to the USA while I listened and smiled at her silly comments at random things. Salamt 3ala all of my friends & we got to class since it was about looked around and noticed one new face. The “new face” was seated in the front of the class.
Mashallah her hair was gorgeous. It was long and naturally brown straight with simple waves to it, but her messy ponytail made it look bad. Her teeth weren’t what I would call perfect, they were a bit crooked. Her body was average. She wasn’t fat nor was she skinny. 7asait’ha bent 3adia.
Throughout the day, 7asait the girl was tagging around with me a lot. She was a bit clingy which was annoying. She sat with me and my friends during break but ma 3abarna’ha.
Ma3a miroor il ayam, ti3araft 3laiha. Esim’ha Muneera. After about a month of school passing by, I considered Muneera to be one of my friends. She was fun to be with and a bad ass in class. Youm min il ayam e3zimatni ana o a few other girls bait’ha. I was the first one to get to her house and she was texting someone the whole time. Later I found out that Muneera had a boyfriend that is 3 years older than us. Of course I was surprised since never have I ever had any experience with talking to guys. El7amdillah my family raised me well. Muneera went on and on about her boyfriend “Rakan”. She told me that they have been together about a year now. She told me how they met and so on.
About a month later, I went to her house again and she asked me if I wanted to go to 3a9eer il tha7ya. I said sure. When she said “go to 3a9eer il tha7ya” I didn’t know that she meant sneak out without anyone knowing. I was scared since I was what you could call a “goddy two shoes”. 3a9eer il tha7ya was not far from her house but on our way there while crossing the road, a white Dodge Charger pulled up to us, and began messing with us.
Guy in Dodge: il 7ilween sh3ind’hum itmashoon bil shari3 ;)
I stayed quiet because I was a bit scared and shocked at the same time. Muneera didn’t hesitate to reply to him.
Muneera: o enta shako?! Ibooy wila 7abeebi 3shan tes2alni hal so2al?!
Guy in Dodge: hadday hadday ya bent il nas, hatha yizay as2al 3anich.
Muneera (sarcastically) : mashkoora, ma ga9art.
Guy in Dodge: Inzain bidal ma tamshoon eb hal 7ar shraykum ana awa9ilkum?
Muneera: la maskoor. Wi9alna
Guy in Dodge: inzain kaifich. Bs shrayich a36eech ra8mi 7ag etha e7tijtay shay ;)
Muneera: ana ma a5eth ar8am hal ashkal.
Muneera pulled me by my hand and walked me into 3a9eer il tha7ya. I looked at her in shock. I never expected her to be like this! She talked to the guy with confidence but not the way I would expect wa7da mitrabya to talk to a guy.
We got our drinks and went back to her house.
In school, Muneera would keep me updated with her boyfriend drama that happened between her and Rakan. I did what a good friend would do and I listened. From what I heard from her, I did not like Rakan. He seemed to be a player and I tried convincing Muneera so but it was no use.
A few weeks later, Muneera called me which was no surprise since we had a lot of phone conversations. But this one was a bit different.
Muneera (sobbing): aloo
Me: Hii…shfeech?
Muneera: Ma feeni shay.
Me: la feech shay, now tell me shfeech.
Muneera: Rakan.
Me: shfeeh? Shisalfa?
Muneera: Fara7 galatla lazim yesawi shay ma3ay wela eb tishtiki 3laih bil ma5far l2na uhwa 6ag’ha.
Me: shinooo?! Mino fara7???
Muneera: Fara7 is his ex that still loves him bs he doesn’t love her and he wants to be with me but she doesn’t like the fact that were together and shes jealous. He fought with her telling her to leave him alone and bil 8ala6 he hit her so now she told him he either does something with me aw eb tishtiki 3leeh bil ma5far.
Listening to this all I knew it was a lie. Not a lie from her but a lie from him. I was sure this was something he had made up just to get with her if you know what I mean.
I Stayed up late with her on the phone trying to convince her that this was all one big lie. She didn’t listen. I was extremely surprised when she told me that she was going to do “it” with him. Of course I was completely against it but nothing I said made a difference to her.
She told me that today she would be meeting up with him and they were planning on doing it. I was very disappointed in her. That night I called her hoping that I could change her mind last minute.
Me: aloo
Muneera: hala
Me: shloonich?
Muneera: Hayoon im kind of busy right now I’ll call you later.
Me: laish wainich?
Muneera: ana bil sayara ma3a Rakan.
When I heard those few words, I felt like my heart was being squeezd. I was frighten for her. She was my friend and no way was I going to let her loose karamat’ha!
Me: Muneera laa2 sim3eeni!!!
Muneera: ana mash’3oola adig 3alaich ba3dain. Bye.
*and she shut the phone in my face*

- In a medium bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar until well blended. Beat in the vanilla, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy. Mix in the sifted ingredients until just blended. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon. Drop cookie dough 1/4 cup at a time onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be about 3 inches apart.
- Bake for 15 to 17 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are lightly toasted. Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Lovato Gets Help!
So everyones been talking about Demi Lavato! What's up with her? She canceled her tour & she closed her Twitter account. I did a bit of research and this is what i could come up with (when reading keep in mind that although she may be famous, at the end she is a regular teenage girl & im pretty sure shes not the only one whos going throught this):Most of my sources confirmed this:
Lovato has checked into a treatment center to get help for 'emotional and physical issues.' Her rep told TMZ: 'Demi Lovato left her tour early this weekend in order to seek medical treatment for emotional & physical issues she has dealt with for some time.' She is not seeking treatment for drug use:
'Demi has decided to take personal responsibility for her actions and seek help. She is doing just that. [Demi] regrets not being able to finish her tour, but is looking forward to getting back to work in the near future.' She was in a physical altercation with a female member of her tour recently which was a 'catalyst' in her decision to seek professional help.
I also got this from another source (Perezhilton):
"She fought through eating disorders and has struggled with cutting. [She] is taking control by getting help. She definitely had body-image issues. She was always conscious of her weight. Like many other teenage girls, she struggled a lot to fit in and find acceptance. She's very sensitive, very intuitive and that is part of what makes her a wonderful performer – very talented. It is double-edged sword. I think she felt that the hard time she had [in school], problems with kids who were incredibly vicious made her stronger. But none of us feel strong every day."

Best 100
"The Kuwait Science Fair is a competition in which students can use their scientific and math skills to come up with an innovative experiment or invention. They get the chance to win great prizes and experience new things, hopefully inspiring them to enter into a career in the math and science field.
The competition was established in 2008, as a joint partnership between ExxonMobil Exploration & Production Kuwait Limited and Kuwait Energy Company, in hopes to create further interest by Kuwait’s youth in the math and science field.
The Kuwait Science Fair competition, “The Best 100”, aims to encourage students to take an active interest in math and science education, in addition to motivating them to learn and perform well in these classes."
