WANTED!!!!
Posted by Bloggylife in family, thoughts on February 27, 2008

What I need is a self-constructive PC organism. A PC that can identify the problem and fix itself. Pinpoint the hardware failure and regenerate electronic circuits. Has a brain to enable it to speak its mind, when someone is trying to screw it. Able to produce electronic shocks to zap the user when he/she is doing something they aren’t supposed to do. Smart enough to collect physical, audio, video, fingerprints, snapshots, evidence to criminate who ever violated them, preferably if they have a live-like finger to point with. Has a sense of reason to convince the user not to do what someone told them not to do, psychiatrist ability is a huge plus. Can issue sirens to warn imminent disasters. I need a super duper with human intelligence and interaction PC!!!
Because my brothers have struck again and destroyed the PC!!!! After the last PC on smoke incident, I don’t have the energy or the sanity to look into it.

تذكرين..؟
أخيتي
تذكرين..؟
لما كان عمرج سنتين
تغير شي بدنيتج
أمي يابتلج اخت
تذكرين..؟
*****
مرت عقبها سنين
تقريبا خمسة.. وشهرين
في ألبوم الذكريات
كانت لنا كثير حكايات
أذكر في إحدى الصور
كنتي إنتي توقفين
وأنا يمج عاليمين
عندي إياها.. لحد الحين
بذاك القارب قاعدين
ويا أمي ومستانسين
“وكان بيدينها “عمر
ماشالله مثل القمر
كنتي إنتي عجفتين
وكنت أنا عنقوصين
تذكرين..؟
*******
ابتسامتنا بريئة
وحتى هدومنا بسيطة
كنا حيل مبسوطين
تذكرين..؟
وشادة جسمي وشاقة حلجي
لأن أدري إنتي يمي
وهذا يكفيني فخر
والله يكفيني فخر
إنج معاي بهالصور
تذكرين..؟
*****
لمـــا أسترجع صورنا
كانت دوم فيها لمعة
طالعة من “ألماس”عينج
كنت أحبها
وللحين أحبها
لمعة فيها إحساس تفاؤل
دايم بكل الصور
كان بعيونج حماس
كنتي قمة بالإحساس
وكانت هذي بصمتج
تذكرين..؟
******
تذكرين..؟
تذكرين..؟
قمتي إنتي بلا تردد
قمتي قلتي كلمتين
مكان ما إحنا واقفين
بوسط ساحتنا الكبيرة
ساحة..جزء من جبل
كنا إحنا بقمته
وفجأة
ايدج دزته
وصار اهوه بقاعته
وصار لإسمنا هيبته
تذكرين..؟
******
تذكرين؟
لما كنا نتهاوش وانتناقش
وأعتقد لحد الحين
تذكرين..؟
وكنتي تزعلين.. والنونة تعقدين
وأنا أتحلطم..وأتقرطم
داخل قليبي أتمتم
“أبي أقلدج”
“إي أبي أقلدج”
لأن ماعرف بهالدنيا غيرج
إنتي الشمعة بحياتي
تنوري وتضوي حياتي
“كيفي”
“إلا أقلدج”
وهم اقلدج
تذكرين..؟
وتتنرفزين
وتعصبين
ومرات تحقرين
أيـــوز تتوقعين..؟!؟
لا.. أرد أقلدج
تذكرين..؟
******
تذكرين..؟
عنيدة ودلوعة أبوي
كل ما صار شي.. أفتن
وكله لازقة بحضن أبوي
يــــــــااااااااه
والله إني كنت مليقة
مــادري ياهل..أو بريئة
وانتي دوم كنتي عنيدة
بس هالدنيا جمعتنا
وين كنا و وين صرنا
تذكرين..؟
******
تذكرين..؟
يوم نتسابق بالصلاة
إللي يسبق اهوه فايز
بالي والله.. مو الصلاة
جايز ولا ماهو جايز
بالي..أنا فايز يعني فايز
تذكرين..؟
كنا ما نعرف خشوع
بطرف عيني..قاعد اشوفج
!!..بتسبقني

وصج سبقتي….وضحكنا
تذكرين..؟
بس عقبها أبوي طقنا
قالنا بأعلى صوت
“!! هذي مو لعبة.. صلاة”
“هذي ما فيها سباقات”
تذكرين..؟
*******
تذكرين..؟
سنة سبعة وتسعين
الحج ويا أبوي رايحين
كان زحمة وريحة خايسة
كان حر وقمتة زايدة
وطحت أنا
غشيــــــــــانة
كانت الأولى بحياتي
وكنتي يمي
تسحبيني وتسنديني
وحتى ماي زمزم شربتيني
تذكرين..؟
*******
ومرت عشر سنين
كانت أصعب السنين
بس هونها وجودج
بداري مرة ومرة دارج
كنتي معاي تضحكين
وهم معاي تبجين
تذكرين..؟
كنت أدري داخل قلبي
إن مهما صار وتم
ودارت الدنيا في يوم
إن في قلوبنا قسم
كنت دايم لما أخاف
ما تمر لحظتين
عقب أستوعب حياتي
“ليش اخاف..؟!؟”
“ليش أخاف وإنتي يمي..؟”
شايلة خوفي وهمي
لو تهدني الدنيا كلها
وإتخلى بكل أهلها
أدري إنج توقفين
وتمسكيني وتقولين
لا أبدا ماخلي أختي
هذي من لحمي ودمي
أدري إني في أمان
وأغمض جفني وأنام
لأن أدري مها صار
إنتي أختي و إنتي أمي
وانتي من لحمي ودمي
وأوعدج مهما يصير
أضم قلبج..هالكبير
وأوعدج إني أعيش
شايلة همج وهمي
إنتي وحدج تاج راسي
وبعد كل هلي وناسي
لو تبين ماي عيني
والله ما يغلا عليج
******
أنا حبيت أختصرلج
ثلاثة وعشرين سنة من عمرج
بذمتج لما تفكرين
تعتقدين بهالسنتين
قبل ما تييلج أخت
هالسنتين..كانوا حلوين..؟؟
يسوون تتوقعين..؟
********

هلا اختي هلا أختي

Happy Birthday Baby SIS
Wish you the very best in this life and after it.
Allah la ya7remni minich
Loving you is effortless
Nobody can understand me the way you do
We laugh at our silly jokes that nobody seems to get ;P
We laugh sooo hard, tears come down my eyes and I would say: ‘Stop it, i’m gonna pee on myself ;P’
It’s amazing how you can say the right thing with simple words
You lift me up
When I want to stay mad at you for a long time, I can’t and I don’t know why
It comes natural that I would give whatever I have to you
I can say anything to you
Knowing you’re happy makes me happy
We have a long history together
Thank GOD I have YOU as my SISTER :*
xxxxxxx LOVE YOU xxxxxxx
Here we go again

Names vs Numbers
Posted by Bloggylife in family, Kuwait on October 10, 2007
I took my younger brothers shopping in the Avenues. I don’t know what kicked in but I decided to teach them something, from me, their big sister along the way ;D
I didn’t realize it was something odd until people start asking me questions, why do you memorize street numbers? Well, it’s easier, I truly believe that. Each street or highway in Kuwait has more than one name but one unified number so I go by that. Also, I hate it when people describe “خلي برج الساعة على يمينج” , there is more than one way to do that!
“اذا بدلي أحد“
I’ll say: take road 40, then the fifth ring road take a left, go ahead till you see road 60 take it all the way to ….
Even the bridges, 205 … I do keep forgetting some If I don’t go there for a while. But it’s a challenge. It is very useful when describing to the (اعليمية) people. I have a friend who I used this method to get her around Kuwait before she bought a car with a GPS system.
So I quizzed my brothers, and this street is ..
“الدائري الخامس“
good …
“صح هذا السادس“
Yup and those streets going across, this is 40 “King Fahad”, 45 “Damascus”, 85
Since everybody keeps telling me no one memorizes street numbers. I decided to increase the population of the people who do so by including my brothers, you can call it cheating but I don’t want to be the only one
Click Away Time
Posted by Bloggylife in family, personal, work on October 7, 2007
My day started with me being late. I over slept and again my younger brother did too. I went to him ” قوم يالله متأخرين“. What I don’t understand is to this day I always finish dressing up before him even if I start after and I’m the girl and have to choose what to wear. Well the latter isn’t totally true, I have what you call clothes rotation for work ;P selective set of clothes that I wear for work every now and then
As my sister says, “لوعتي جبدي, انت ما عندج غير هالهدوم تلبسينهم“
Today I had to ask about my resignation. Anyway I ended up with the manager of personnel department. He informed me that there is no need for prior notice.
“Really, are you sure? I thought I had to give a two weeks notice before I resign”
“لا من قال” he answered back
So I took his word and starting preparing my resignation letter which I am supposed to hand over to my manager to sign and forward to his manager and sign and so forth ….
As I was walking back to my office, I came across a lot of people. I had this huge goofy smile on my face. I couldn’t wipe it off.
“السلام عليكم … شلونك“, “Good morning, how are you?”, “Hello”, “Hi”
Came my greetings to all passers by. Security officer, cleaning lady, receptionist, one-eyed Egyptian painter and employees of course. Even I saw that grumpy manager, who has issues. I was about to stop him and ask, “Excuse me sir, but it has been over two months and you haven’t called about your network connection. Yes, you have been blocked ever since because you were on vacation “مو حاطين عليك لا تخاف” paranoia freak, how come you get your work done, huh, I guess that last drama tantrum you pulled four months ago about how busy you are was just for show”. But I decided otherwise
But he’s still blocked, hehehe
I realized that every action, smile, gesture, conversation toward anybody at work now maybe the last. That thought brings a huge smile to my lips even my eyes are smiling along, wonderful colours surge through my mind not to forget the weird songs that pop in my head now and then that I have to hum away
Wireless Home Network
Posted by Bloggylife in family, technology on October 6, 2007
The current wireless router was giving us too much trouble, hangs every now and then. Taking my past experience with robotics I decided to go purchase a Cisco product Linksys. Along with that we had a signal extender also Linksys.

I had my brother connect his laptop to the old wireless router and I configured the new one and we got it working. The problem was with the extender and link light keeps turning red which means there is no connectivity. I tried auto configuration, for auto configuration to work you have to remove any wireless security settings on the router. My brother kept telling me there is something wrong with the extender. How many times have I told you there is nothing wrong with it *crossing my fingers and secretly hoping I’m right*, just give me time. Since I hate reading manuals and make them the last resort to solve a problem I went back to basics and did a step-by-step troubleshooting.
The extender doesn’t support the WPA wireless security mode. I didn’t know that, was I supposed to know that? Anyway I selected the WEP which is easier to hack but I also set MAC address filtering so by that I control PCs who get connected. The only problem is that the password is 26 hex digits long (128 bit encryption)!! To avoid my brother’s too long too complicated password speech I wrote it on paper and placed in his room and went to sleep
We’ll see how the new wireless network setup works at home. Yeah also I need a network hard drive. Still have to search for that.
Ferrero Roche
Posted by Bloggylife in family, food on October 6, 2007

Watching TV with the family after futoor. Ferrero Roche chocolate commercial comes up.
I turned to my brother and said: This man must really know women
Huh, why?
The chocolate is …. The simple combination of …. The crunchiness … The delicacy …The taste … and I wondered off imagining the taste and the texture …
You know it takes a woman to really appreciate chocolate
I waited for him to debate but as always my brother’s response came as a long stare, a smile and “والله امصدقة“
