I've been staying at a furnished studio for about a month now, and will have to stay there another one also...
Almost nothing is working!! so here is a list of reasons i might end up dead in here:
1. i might be blown up by gas leakage, if i turn on the oven (3la asas ene ba6bo5) i smell gas and some other weird smell i don't know what yet something burning besides my food.
2. the fridge is not working, so i might end up eating something that expired!! (ya3)
3. The A.C sometimes takes a vacation, so ymken amot men el jafaf!!! on the other hand good thing it rained yesterday...
Thank God the t.v is working.. actually it's the only thing mehrez bkol el mawdo3 so i won't die of boredom.
and yes i am looking for a new place....

Usually people celebrate one year anniversaries, that’s why we have one birthday every year for example. I went through my life that way until I met someone very special who taught me that celebrating one month anniversaries has a new meaning. Anyway to cut a very long story short, last night I celebrated my one month anniversary in
To my beloved
I couldn’t help myself from crying.

I've wanted to write about this for a while, it's been really annoying me lately. Annoying to the point that it gives me headaches!!
This has happened more than once, i'm standing in a line waiting for something and the person behind me is breathing down my neck!! i want to turn around and push them away. I don't know why people don't respect the Personal Space.
I've read a book about the body language, ( i read it before i moved to Dubai, Fadi :D), anyway and the writer has taken the effort to write a whole chapter about Personal Space which proves that i am not the only one annoyed of it. There are different zones to every person and according to what you mean to them you are assigned a zone that you can get into. Ofcourse there is no physical seperators and you can cross the line but no guarantees on the reaction.
The interesting thing is that the classification usually doesn't change amongst humans but the distances does according to where you live! for example if you are living in a crowded city you stranger zone would be 1 or 1.5 meters whereas if you are living in rural areas it goes up to 2 or 2.5 meters. The only zone that does change is the intimate zone. This is where you allow the person to get so close that you are no longer two but one! i don't mean that in a sexual way, i meant it in a romantic way ;) though it is sexually true.
Another thing the writer mentioned which i really liked is how people react in an elevator, all stranger and if they want to leave some personal space then they better go in one by one. But what people do in this case is keep staring at the floor numbers 1,2,3 (can't it go any faster),...,10,11,12 (almost there)... 15,16 (yeppeeeeeee i am out of here!!).
I wish those people who stood behind me yesterday and the day before and the day before that... could read this! on the other hand it won't matter. i should wish for something more productive like i wish the people who will stand behind me today or tomorrow or the day after READ this and stay the hell away from me!!

I've been away for a long time, things have been crazy in my life. I moved to Dubai as some of you might know. Since the day i set foot in this country i haven't rested :(. Many things to do and little time to do it. Now it's a little better but i still have a lot to do.
Since i am new here i don't have a lot of friends to hang out with as i did in Amman, so i returned to my beloved friends: books :) I've been reading a book by the famous Anis Mansour, it's actually a number of articles he assembled in a book about Al Wojodiya. I don't know what it means in English and yes i am too lazy at the moment to open a dictionary. Well Al Wojodiya is a phylosophy that calls for freedom of mind, freedom of soul, freedom of everything from everything. Anyway i am not that good at interpreting so i will get to my point.
In one of his articles he wrote about the power the eyes have... about how you can make people really uncomfortable by just looking at them and not saying a single word. About how you can make people really happy with a look...
He wrote that when we fall inlove, we allow our beloved one to look at us in anyway they want, we want to be downgraded by our love... we want to belong to them. We want them to sweep us of our feet. We enjoy suffering in love.
The only thing not acceptable is someone taking away my sweetheart's freedom by looking at them... taking my freedom. As Anis Mansoor says, I am the only one allowed to look at my sweetheart that way, I can only wonder into his soul, travel through his thoughts and live in his innerbeing.
To my sweetheart...
