Naifeen Al-Mazroui

First of all.. Happy Birthday.. Since today is your special day there is no better day for me to say this to you than today..

You are simply an amazing person and you are what many of us look up to.. You are strong and independent and with everything that life threw on you, you still stood tall in the end and you stood proud..

Where ever you go, you never fail to leave a mark and draw a smile on people.. If people were more like you, the world would have been a better place..

On your day, I wish you a very happy birthday and all I say is may Allah grant you happiness, success and make all your dreams come true..

You are a gem in this world..

Happy Birthday Fini..

Its people like who takes Oman to a different level and make it even more.. Words fail to express how proud you’ve made us feel..

Macarena Lyrics

Have a Happy "EEHHH MACARENA" Weekend =)

Baby Shower..

Last Thursday I throw my sis a baby shower and invited like 50 people over and we had a blast.. It was amazing!!

We a crazy time.. We had lots of crazy games from melted cocolate in diapers to drinking from a baby bottle to eating baby food.. it was CRAZY.. Unfortunately I didn’t take lots of photos of the events but here are a very few that I managed to take..

This is the gifts upon winning a game.. The Diaper gift..


This is what was inside it.. it varies from a diaper to a diaper..


This is on of the balloons (Rummy is Holding this =p)


Here is another one =p


And this is the pic of the cup cakes made..






The theme was (orange, yellow, geen and brown) and we dont know what is the sex of the baby =)


The one thing that was interesting in this gathering, I got to meet Omani bloggers.. Indeed it’s a small world..

I met No Identity, Rummy, Nusy, and Um Aryam

It was a nice shower to the extend that the last people leave the house, left at 1am lool…

I tell you, we know how to PAR-TAY!!

Happy Thoughts..

Wishing you all a happy day..

The Morning News..

Today as I was driving to work I decided to listen o the morning news and I wish if I didn’t.. I’ve never heard more depressing news EVER in my life.. Each and every piece of information given was about death and killing.. Here is what I heard in conclusion and not very specific bas bil ma3na!

1. Israel bomb a school bus or a bus in an are and they didn’t know that children were on it and they did that to teach Hamas a lesson!!! (I think the lesson is learned)

2. Abusiness man was captured by I donno who and when they knew that they were surrounded by the police they killed him!!! (why?? I donno)

3. Someone went and bombed himself and exploded I donno where and he killed I donno how many and injured many..

4. Afghan police or I donno what and a civilian and an officer and 3 injured..

5. Something something about shooting each other and something and all 5 are dead..

6. Japan refused to talk food from Indonesia coz it might be radiated (this was the only piece of new that no one died in)

I miss the days when you used to hear about the leaders and people and changes and good things that were happening in the world..

Have a KILLER morning.. and I do mean that in a nice way =D

Racist Much??

I’ll Leave the comments to you..

Alhamdulliah..

I Finally own a land...

And now i'm in debt...

New Laugh..

I have noticed now for about 2 weeks that I have a new retarded laugh and somehow it is bothering me and I cant control it..

I donno what made me change my laugh or what made my mind think that this is a cool, hip, amazing, nice, gorgeous, feminine, lovable, receiving, caring, giving and sharing laugh!!!

2 weeks ago, I was like WTF! What is the noise??? Only to realize it was MY LAUGH!!

Now if I go back 5 years ago when I was in college studying, I did have a trend of changing my laugh but it was for fun just to mess with my friends and somehow I would change my laugh lool.. Funny as it sounds the new laugh would stick!!

Now now, aish eli jaaaab this new laugh I have no idea.. How did it start.. I DONNO..

None of my current friends/family realized my new laugh but I did.. I would have uploaded my laugh but “the voice of a woman is a sin” LOOL!!

Now this is a question for you guys, do you get influence by a certain laugh that you automatically pick it up or is your laugh a signature laugh that no one has but you??

I don’t pick up laughs but somehow my laugh has a mind of its own and it changes 3ala keefoo :/

15th March 2011

On 15th March 2011 I overheard a conversation between 2 people.. It went something like this..

“So what am i?”

“You are like a blank cheque”

“A blank cheque????”

“Yes, a blank cheque.. You are not defined to specific thing but I know that anything I write on you, you can totally be.. You are a friend when I want one.. A sanctuary when I need one.. A lover when I crave one.. You are the one thing that I know I can always count on that will totally pay and be worth it”

“I love you…”

“I love you more..”

I never knew a love like this exists....



15- March-11 is a day to remember.. It was an adventure, it was crazy, it was racist, it was funny, it was at a point running around like headless chicken.. It was a birthday, it was a reunion.. it was a rematch.. it was a debate.. It was basically seeing it all.. Thank you My Doctor for giving me the most amazing crazy day I have ever witnessed..



on behalf of 15th March I want to say…
1. Happy FAKE birthday to a certain doctor of mine..
2. Alf mabrook to a dear FAKE friend of mine..

Two extraordinary things for two special people..

This adventure wouldnt be possible if it wasnt for my 7amani.. I love you so much my husband for giving me the opportunity.. o 3asa rabi ma ye7rimni minak.. Thank you for making all this possible..

The Toilet Love

I’ve been hiding a secret.. A dirty little secret.. hehehe.. but its time to come clean.. And that requires me to go to the toilet =p


This is a special place that everyone has to visit it at least once a day.. For me, the toilet is the place that I communicate with a cretin someone and it has become the place of love for us lool.. We share and we care and we receive and we give and sharing is caring as receiving is rewarding and giving =p


Now I know that may sound disgusting but it was the place that I:
1. First heard someone’s voice
2. Complained to someone’s about my days
3. Hear complains about someone’s days
4. Declared our love to each other
5. Shared way too many information about what we are doing there looool


You know how things change in life and all right.. And I know major changes are coming but I do hope the toilet love stays the same..


I miss you my toilet someone loooooool…

P.s Specaial dedication to Swera

Hi

It’s been ages since I last wrote in/on my dusted blog… Not sure why I stopped.. I have lots of stuff to share.. and give and receive and its all about caring and sharing and giving and receiving because when you give in life and share you get to care and receive and that is what life is all about..


One thing I know that work is killing me.. I am behind in doing my tasks for various reasons:
1. I sometimes think I hate my job..
2. I don’t like what I do..
3. I don’t feel challenged..
4. It got VERY boring and repetitive..
5. Facebooking is an addiction at work which I might add is not helping in terms of actually doing the work..
6. I invented games in facebook and its fun (at least I can be creative there)..
7. I cant deal with difficult people..
8. Somehow my idea’s are not appreciated..
9. Solving a problem and making the best of the situation is never seen as a good thing..
10. Screwing up and using the net, now that is what bosses like to talk about!!
11. Weekend duties which means I work 7 days a week and I have to wake up in the weekends at 7 to start work at 8 and finish at 11!!
12. Some how the duty pay is not worth it.. Somehow I say..

Lets talk for a second about the social life that I have.. Hmm.. The only communication I have with people is during:
a- lunch hour where I go out with my friends or husband..
b- When people are replying me when playing my facebook game lool.. (mom tells me I should charge them lool)..



by 7:30 I am already exhausted and I want to sleep!!
And that statement also falls during the weekend!!


I like today.. I have lots of thing but I am ignoring.. Aren’t I GREAT =p


Oh and my appraisal last year was BARLEY in the line of good work!!



I just remembered that I have:
* 3000 emails to go through and save the data..
* 400 or so image files to re-name and upload..
* 2 positional accounts to sort and delete..


Now I’m depressed! …


P.s This post is specially dedicated to Mean B..

All i asked for is A THOUSAND!!

All i ever asked for is a Thousand Omani Rials and i am not even considered to be greedy, and here ROWIN asks for a MILLION DOLLARS and he gets it!!!!!

Check this link.. (thank you Bint ilKuwait for this, and NO i dont feel any better =p)

How is life fair =(

Clarification to Kuwait..

Yesterday I this broadcast..

‏​لأهل ديرتي الكويت الله يحفظهم ~ { اكثرو من الرقيا الشرعيه } موضوع“ المنحة الأميرية“ صار خبر تتداوله كل المحطات الإخباريه العالميه }يعني كل مواطن بالعالم قاعد يحسبها كم تساوي بعملة بلده ... { يعني الكل مبطل عينه ومصدوم }والعياذ بالله .. قال صلى الله عليه وسلم:(العين حق، ولو كان شئ سابق القدر سبقته العين)~ وقال: (أكثر من يموت من أمتي بعد كتاب الله وقضائه وقدره (بالأنفس). يعني ((بالعين) ) { اللـهـم احفـظـنا } وإذا الألف عندك شويه عند غيرك من الدول تشتري بيت ~{أعــوذ بكـلمات الله التـامه ، مـن كـل شـيـطـان وهـامـه ، ومـن كـل عـيـن لامـه }~ الله يحفظ بلدنا من العين والحسدبرودكاست ياجماعه الديره كلش مو ناقصه عين اللي فينا مكفيناوعمان مسوين مظاهره ليش الكويت معطا شعبهم كل واحد الف واحنا لا

Now I just want to clarify, that whatever we did in our country, had NOTHING to do with you getting 1000KD or free food. This maseera thing was decided a week ago or so but it was before anything was declared on your side..

Here are links that you can browse through that will give you an idea on why we were doing the maseera..

http://www.omanihouse.com/?p=97

http://alharah.net/alharah/t25556.html

And jama3a please make sure of the information that you get, tara al fitna ashad min el qatel.. we are brothers and sisters and happiness should be shared with all and not envied.. And l7amdullah Oman ma qa9arat with us. In the 40th national day, we all got a week off and we got an extra basic salary and so much more.. And we are happy for Kuwait for what they are getting also and in the end we should all say “Al7amdulliah”..

Standy, Over and Out..

2011 Resolution

Since I didn’t have a 2010 resolution I really didn’t live by any rules.. As a result i:
1. Gained 10 kgs
2. Lost focus in work
3. Didn’t have priorities
4. Didn’t have saving
5. Lived the day as it came and that resulted in my being depressed, lost and donno what the hell I am doing!!

So I decided to start this year with a nice easy to do resolution…

For 2011:
1. Smile more
2. Be more forgiving
3. Focus in my work
4. Lose weight
5. Save 1000 Rials (since no one wants to give me. I’ve been begging for 2 years now and NOT ONE SOUL wants to give me my 1000 rials! And the mahar money doesn’t count thank you very much!!!)
6. Travel to a country that I have never been to!
7. Talk more Arabic and less English (which my doctor hates and doesn’t support me in this madri why)
8. Read at least 3 books
9. Engage more with my friends and have more gatherings

10. Cancel resolution no.5 and wait for someone to give me a thousand rials no string attached

11. Tweet at least once a day..
12. Find my fake friend a new obsession!
13. Blog More!!
14. Keep on obsessing about the 1000 Omani Rial and maybe someone from Kuwait will donate it to me since they have given 1000 Kuwaiti Dinar from their government..

That is all for now =)

End of the Year Appraisal 2010

So I was asked to evaluated myself and write the results and behavior that I have achieved, or done in 2010.. Now I don’t understand how I am suppose to evaluate myself.. I mean my boss is suppose to write about me not me write about myself.. Anyways, since I am not so good with words (professional that is) I asked my co-workers to help and here is what they EXPECT ME to publish in my performance report!!!

Director's Award 2010

Started working in the company in 2006

Joined The Data Management Department in 2008

After 2 years of working in Data Management, My efforts was finally recognized =)

This is a gift given and a sum of money will be given but i donno how much =)

The start of 2011 looks promising =)

Tour in Oman..

Due to your comments that I have taken into consideration and I have studied the appreciated feedback and after much thought, money and power that I have invested in this tour, I decided to share with you where Karamilah been taken by ME when she was here.. (the visit is not in order, cant remember the order)

Express Highway
While we were at the express highway, we saw a side road filled with palm trees and decorative lights so we said why not follow the road and see where it leads.. We ended up in front of guards with gun, and when we asked were told that it is “ma6iqa 3askariya”.. Why on earth would you have a militarily place decorated so nicely like that??

Al Bustan Place Hotel
Karamilah requested to see this hotel as she heard about it but never saw it, so we went in to tour and they refused and said everything is off limit and it’s for the hotel guests only so we used their toilet and left to our next destination! (7 star hotel toilets rocks =p)

Souq Mattrah
A traditional market in Muscat where they sell old stuff plus weird stuff.. this was the 3rd time I go there hehehe.. 1st time went to stitch an abbaya, second time, went to take it and 3rd time played a tour guide to people loool…

Cornish
This along side Mattrah were you sea the ports and the yachts and the lights and the sea and the fish and the cars and the people and the shop and you get my drift!!


Marina Bandar Al Rawtha
Passed by it, entered the wrong turning, saw the view from the wrong turing.. Gave up and left hehe..


Qasir Al 3alam (The Sultan’s Palace)
I cant remember when was the last time I saw it which means it was a very long time ago, I wont be surprised if it was over 15 years ago.. So this was the educational bit for me where I saw the palace, saw how the place changed.. The lights the road and how its crowded with people.. Reminded me of Buckingham palace in London.. The only thing we didn’t have pigeons hehe..


Bawabat Muscat (Muscat’s Door)
A very interesting thing to stop and see.. Now here I really got educated and learned shwaya of the history of my country.. I know the original door was replaced but I have never been to it and saw it up front.. We also discovered that there is a museum that I have never knew existed.. Quite educational.. We didn’t enter the museum coz its was at night but definitely its on my list of things to go and see..

Mashakeek
To end the semi half day tour, we went to Athiba beach and ordered mashakeek (meat on stick cooked bbq style) and had it in the car and that concluded our amazing tour =D



Some private/public replies =p

Swear: Since you are my dear amazing Kuwaiti fake blogger friend, I would gladly make for you a fake tour, where you have to come and transit in Oman airport, I’ll meet you there, take you to the nearest coffee shop available in the airport, fake my smile and genuinety, show you pictures of the places that I will so fakley take you to.. And then take you back to the plane =D how do you like my super fake amazing plan? (plz ignore my creative words that doesn’t exist in the dictionary =p)

Mean B: laish inshallah are you disappointed in me?

Bint ilKuwait: I loved the way you came up with the story of my life and now I owe you a tour here in Oman =)

Reema: Was that detailed enough =p

Eshda3wa: 7ayaaash wallllah.. you have to come here =D

The thing about Oman, is that its too big and you cant see it all in one day and everything is all over the place.. So you need at least a week so you can cover the places that is a MUST to see =)

I like the idea of preparing a tour for my jealous blogger friends loool as quoted from Reema.. So I asked Mery (the driver and the guide who is my bestfrined) and she goes like “I will agree on if it is 10Rials per hour” =S .. Speak about having expensive friend!!!

Anywhoooooo… whoever comes to Oman and wants a tour don’t hesitate to contact me and I shall try my best to make it worth your while and maybe quit my job and become a tour guide or wazirat wizarat el siya7a fi 3oman =D

A Visit From UAE

Last Wednesday I get a call from my dear blogger friend karamilah who tells me that she is coming to Oman on Thursday.. It was a very refreshing call and I knew I would have a extraordinarily weekend and indeed it was..

Couldn’t meet her on Thursday coz I had a wedding to attend and she was busy sightseeing with her family.. Nevertheless she fell in love with my country =)

I met her and her sister on Friday and we had a blast, we laughed we toured. I asked my best friend Mery to be our guide and she did an amazing job in giving us a tour.. One thing I learned is that I am not utilizing what I have in hand. Oman has lots of places and yet I have no idea about., This tour/trip was an eye opener, it was a tour for me too.. I learned stuff and as an Omani I should have KNOWN them loool..

Karamilah, thank you for visiting Oman and being the amazing person that you are.. I had a blast and I really cant wait for you to come again.. This time, it will be fully planned and more of a party than a trip..

Say hi to your sis for me and tell her thank you for making me talk Arabic ;)

Blog Link Changed

Attention Bloggers..


The link to my dearest blogger/friend has changed due to the corrupted net corporation where they just decided to deny her the right to her exclusive website name which mind you she's been using for the past 2 years..


Her previous link was
www.karamilah.com

Her current link is
http://karamilah.blogspot.com


Please update your readers and blogrolls accordingly =D

Thank you...

BOH-RING!!
Sounds like tropical island!

So where did you go for your honeymoon?
I went to Boh-ring island.. it’s an island east west northish boreder of the main land which is also the capital city of boring!!

Say boring ten times in a row and in a fast speed.. Doesn’t it sound like someone is dribbling a basket ball or 2 people playing table tennis?!

So I’ve been bored lately and there is nothing interesting going on so far, so I decided to create a game in face book where everyday I will post 2 options and you have to choose one and if you get most of them correct you’ll win a prize =) will be doing it for 10 posts.. Bored much? YES

Now I am not sure what shall the prize be.. Any ideas???

5 Days later!!

Exactly 5 days was the off of Eid.. Monday to Friday.. It was VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY yes I am stressing on VERY to show you how VERY SHORT it was.. Honestly, it wasn’t enough.. And today is SATURDAY!! But when is enough really enough?? Nothing seems to be enough to anyone anyways lool..

So Eid was hmm.. Not bad I can say but not very organized from my side. This is the first Eid I have spent here since I got married.. So you understand how different it is.. Last Eid I flied my way out of Oman and went to Zanzibar.. Hmm speaking of Zanzibar, I need to post some pics.. hehe.. Will do that later!

So first day Eid, left home by 9am got back home at 5pm and visited only 5 houses!! It was a VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY yes stressing on how it was a VERY LONG day!! At night I didn’t want to see the sight of outside so I camped inside =p

Second day we ignored everyone and everything, me hubby decided to make it our day and we went out for lunch, then to the movies, then visited my and his parents then it was home sweet home…

Third day, it was “sheewa day” hehe.. Having the meat that was cooked underground at his parents place, so that was nice and we also managed to squeeze another 4 houses to greet on this day..

And surprise surprise the last day was Yesterday, I decided to do NOTHING at all.. So I just cooked and watching my series and a movie!



The things that made me happy in these past 5 days are:

1.My brother is here for end of the semester break, so that was exciting for me, as he’s abroad studying. I already told him to come and play PS3 with me hehehe..

2.My husband managed to pamper me to the max which was a very relaxing and much needed thing.

3.Had a great talk with My Doctor and all I can say is that my spirit is “rejuvenated” LOL =p

4.Watching a movie with Swera on yesterday. Although the movie sucked BIG TIME, it was fun watching it with her and we made it interesting. Thank you Sewra for an amazing “movie date” ;)

The movie was called “Harsh Times” it was more like “Wasting Our Times”.. I am not recommending it to ANYONE! Seriously, the movie had no story or moral to teach you..



Standy, Over and Out!

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious..

"A spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down.. The medicine go down.. The medicine go down.. A spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down.. "

I woke up today with this song in mind.. Its from “Mary Poppins” one of my favourite childhood movie.. I never got tired watching it..

Since I got married and I cant seem to stick to a plan.. Nothing works and things keeps on changing.. I miss my routine days.. The times that I manage to get home by 4:30-5pm is a blessing otherwise I know I am not back before 6 or 7 which sucks!! As it is I wake up 5:30am!!

Weekends are not so great either these days.. IF I am not invited for a wedding or a gathering or a lunch or something, I have to be a Cinderella and start cleaning the house and cooking and its not so great.. I don’t mind cooking, I enjoy it, it’s the cleaning that I hate.. Its takes too much time!!! By the time i finish its already end of the day and i feel like it was a working day and then friday comes and BAAAAAM is saturay again =s

Work, I feel like sleeping when I am at work.. not from the lack of work, just because I feel exhausted and tired.. I can’t say I enjoy my work but I manage =)

I am currently reading a book called “getting things done” by David Allen.. Its very interesting and so far it pointed out so many things that I used to do wrong. Hopefully this will make me more efficient and organize in my life..

One thing I am happy about is that I am semi back to doing sports. I joined the basketball girls and sometimes we play football so its all good.. Trying to diet but hehe aint working so I try to eat less and maybe balance my food..

Today is Saturday but somehow I don’t mind it coz tomorrow is the last day working lool..

Its almost end of the year.. Cant believe how this year passed so fast..

Have a “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” Day =)

Mc Evil Confused as usual!!!

My Friends never fail to make a boring meeting or conversation very interesting.. The things they do, or happen to them speaks volumes of hilarious..

Examples:
http://stand-alone7.blogspot.com/2009/05/funny-conversation.html

http://stand-alone7.blogspot.com/2009/06/embarrassing-conversation.html

http://stand-alone7.blogspot.com/2009/05/funny-convo.html

http://stand-alone7.blogspot.com/2009/11/story-of-month.html

Here yet again, i am going to share with you a story.. My dear lovely confused friend "Mc Evil" always and forever puts herself in situations!!

Mc Evil is suppose to pick up her cousins from dubai airport..
(Please Note, that she has NEVER met these cousins and she only knows a name of one of them which is "Ifrah" and all she knows, is that she is looking for someone who looks like her.. 2 girls and a boy)

*pause*

looks like her coz she was told, plus her whole family kinda looks alike.. once in a wedding i almost went to great a girl thinking it was Mc Evil lool!!

*un-pause*

As she is waiting in the airport, people started getting out of the gate, so she starts to scan the area with her fake eyes (she is wearing contacts!!) and then she zooms on 2 girls coming out of the gate..

Conversation with her mind
Mc Evil: is that them?
Her mind: the boy is missing
Mc Evil: but its 2 girls coming
Her mind: the boy is missing
Mc Evil: shall I talk to them
Her mind: the boy is missing
Mc Evil: Oh what the hell
Her mind: THE BOY IS MISSING!!!!

Mc Evil despite the voice of reason, she goes and approaches the girls and....

*pause*
let me first explain to you a little about Mc Evil.. Plain and simple she is a LOUD person and says 100 words in 10 seconds.. She is the type that would great you like you were her long lost friend and when you leave she'll ask "who the hell was that"????
So imagine what happened when she approached the poor poor poor girls...
*un-pause*

Mc Evil: HHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII How are you *extending her hands to greet them* I am Mc Evil, what is your name?
Girl No.1: lookin at her weirdly, hi, I am Sarah
Mc Evil in her head *hmm, that aint my cousins name* Turns to girl No. 2 : what about you?
Girl No.2: uh, Marwa
Mc Evil: looks at them blankly…
Then starts giggling like a 5 year old girl *note she is 28 years old*
Mc Evil: Oh sorry, I thought you were my cousins that I have NEVER met…
(we can make a movie out of this =p)
Mc Evil:Anyways HAVE A NICE DAY *runs the other side*

Now goes back to scan the area with her fake eyes searching for 2 girls and a boy.. She saw 2 girls and a boy looking lost and then she.... Yes yes she approached them i mean really, didnt she learn anything?? but why was she so sure, coz the girl Looked like her.. (the one advantage of marrying within the family = NO confusion)

She looks girls with her evil eyes terrorising them: What is your name?
The girl said : Ifrah

And then they hug and live happily ever after!!!!

THE END!
=p
