Wedding Party

Friday was one of my uncles’ wedding. I could not make it because no one was able to give me a ride to RAK. My aunt – who visited me lately- kept calling me and she was disappointed to know that I will not go to the wedding.

In Thursday – before the day of my uncle’s wedding- I went to a wedding in UAQ with my aunt. She said that she will pick me at 8:30 pm but she arrived at 9 pm. I was impressed when I got in to the party! Everything was amazing! Flashing colors every where … but it really hurt my eyes.

Firstly, my aunt went to greet some people – who I did not know-. I sat alone, then two old women joined me, then 6 other joined them. I was so confused, I turn on my mobile and I started writing some notes in order to write them in my blog.

One of the maids said that a woman wants to talk to me! When a looked at the woman, she was my aunt! She was sitting in the VIP section which pleased me. The singing and dancing started. At 11 pm the bride arrived and she was so beautiful mahallah. After 20 minuets the groom arrived with his father and the bride’s uncle and brothers and he was ok.

At 12:30 am I went to my aunt house where I slept for the night. Well, I slept at 2 am because I had a really nice chat with my cousins. I woke up at 12:30 pm… I was really tired.

New Surprising Facts About My Life P2

Then she told me something I did not image! I have a large family in RAK …. I have 20 uncles and aunts who are my mom’s brothers and sisters mashallah. She said that one of them died when she told me his name….

I froze!! I heard this name before and I heard about his death but I did not know that he was my uncle!!! Nobody told me!

One of my uncles is getting married tomorrow, I wish to go but my dad will not agree he will say that RAK is so far – the usual answer. My aunt and uncle may come next week and take me and my bros out, I hope it will work….

At 10 pm they left after spending 2 hours with me and M. but they did not meet A who was visiting a friend. At least I got there phone numbers to call them whenever I want..

My friend R said that this maybe the explanation of my dream about Josh Groban. He is from a very far place, he came talked and laughed … that can be true…

New Surprising Facts About My Life P1

I was surrounded by my aunt, her children and my granny. I did not feel like I was there, I was daydreaming as usual. Then I saw that door open, my bro M came in … I was shocked because in this time he must be in the old house!

He said “Uncle J and aunt are here!”. I opened my eyes wide! I went to my room and fixed my look. Then they came in my Uncle and aunt – my Mom’s brother and sister-. I shock hands with my uncle – he visits once every year-, I looked dearly to my aunt – I did not recognize her because I did not see here for 10 years!- I kissed and hugged her.

They started chatting with the rest of the family and I was just watching. My uncle and brother did not stop teasing each other and sometimes they teas my poor aunt. After my other aunt left – my father’s sister-, I chatted with my other aunt. She said it is so strange to see someone after 10 years. The last time she saw me I was around 7 years old.

She wanted to visit but was so busy after she got married. I did not blame her at all, I myself did not ask about my other family … I was scared to ask, I feel like something in the air when they come and visit because with a way or another my grandma insults them!!!

Unexcepted Josh!!!

I heard that he will have a concert soon. Then I saw him in front of me, Josh Groban smiling at me, I was not really shocked to see him at my house, I smiled back. We talked like old friends…

There were some kids at the house; Josh went to play with them. he seemed like having a really big heart. Then one of the kids throw a toy to my face!!!.

That kid wanted his toy back, but I did not give it to him … I was so angry! I heard Josh saying “give it back”. I did not care, I ran away holding the toy. When I looked behind I saw an angry Josh running after me!!!

I run faster and faster around the house, he was behind and then he grabbed my arm .. I thought that he will hit me! But he just smile, took the toy and gave it back to it owner.

Then we were in the balcony … talking. I told him that I am not a huge fan of his but I like his songs. I told him also about my friend Sara who was the one to let me know about him. He said “I want to meet this girl”. I asked him to follow me.

I found myself in Sara’s class. One of the girls told me that she left. I felt sad, we went back to the balcony. I said “Josh will you come in Saturday? – it was Wednesday—I really want you to meet that girl”. “I will be there” he said that with a smile.

Unfortunately, that was only a dream, but a really interesting one. I told Sara bout it, she said “Sleep, Sleep!!!”. I knew what she meant … but why did I have a dream about him??

Back!!!

Today and finally, phone line was finally linked! This means connecting to the internet. I did not access for 3 weeks and 4 days, but today I am finally here. I already posted most of my writings organized by the day of modifying them. I did not stop writing; my laptop was my only friend in this lonely place – no TV or internet-.

I did not post some of my writings because I am afraid that it may affect some sensitive people. Some of them wants me to write about specific things … ok whatever, I did not post it because I don’t want more problems what is around me is more than enough.

My days are so boring… yesterday was like today and tomorrow will be like today. I wake up in the morning cook lunch; gather with the family for lunch. In the afternoon, I write or listen to music in my laptop. At 3 I go to the kitchen to prepare something for dinner. I walk from 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm. After praying I go again to the kitchen to cook dinner. At 6 pm while the things are being cooked I walk till 7:30 pm while I read a book.

At night, I may talk to my Dad then I write or watch Winter Sonata – I am watching it for the third time since I started this vacation-. I sleep hoping that tomorrow will be better but nothing changes.

Their First Night

That night Wednesday 20th of July at 11:30 pm I was watching Westlife videos which I did not see for a long time. I remember that every time I listen or watch the video of the song “Seasons in the sun” my dad must call or come.

But I did not expect that to happen … in that moment my cell phone rang. I was scared “who would call in time like this”. When I looked at the screen HE WAS DAD! I answered he said “open the gate, I am coming to sleep in the new house and your brothers too .. there is not electricity in the old house”.

I was shocked but happy that was the first time they sleep in there. I asked the maid to open the gate and I went to their rooms and turned on their ACs. That was the first time I was happy that there is no electricity … I am glad that they were here that night.

International Cleaning Day

It has been about 20 days since I moved to the new house. The most disturbing thing about it … is I’m not connected to world no TV or internet but at least my Dad brings news papers almost everyday.

My brothers does not live with me, they insisted to stay in the old house till they start their schools and then they will come to live in the new one.

In Friday afternoon my Dad said that I have to go back to the old house … to clean it. I went there at 3 pm with my brothers and the maid. When I reached it, I felt like I never been there for ages.

The shocking thing is what INSIDE the house. It was completely A MESS!! My dear brothers do not throw the garbage when they done eating and the dust was everywhere. It really a problem when there is no female at a house

I went to the second floor to find more garbage. I started cleaning with the maid and M but A did not give us THAT much help. I did not know how those people survived in that place!! At least my room was not really dirty… when I left I told my father that they have to be more responsible or I will not clean A THING next time

Little Birdie

After having lunch with the family in Friday the 15th. I went back to my room as I do everyday when I heard a noise coming from an empty room in the second floor. I went in there and…

I saw a small little bird trying to get out of the room!! .. the window is square and have 9 squares in it and we can only open the one in the middle. This birdie did not know that ..

We it saw me, it wanted to flee but he bump in to the widow so hard that it fall on the floor anxiously! .. I felt sorry for it, I bend down and touched it back and WOW it was soft!

I went to bring some water, when it saw me again .. it tried to fly but it bumped to the window!! .. I said “don’t worry I will not bother you, but you better not be here when I come back”. I went out and when I came back I saw it ready to fly when it saw me it kept flying then it went out from the right window….

Was my little birdie saying goodbye?? Well, maybe…
