Rush

I haven't been updating you guys with my personal news for a while now.
So much has been going on yet nothing much has happened... it's funny but weird...

After joining OpenCraft, life has been taking a faster pace, giving me a pleasant rush in my blood making life more interesting. I've been exploring alot of roads.. both physical roads and roads in my life...

At work, the good news is we won a really interesting proposal, which I have worked on (yeaaaaaaaay won my first proposal)...I'm sort of handeling several aspects of the project, some of which I have never done before and some I have. It's really challenging in an interesting way which makes me want to do my ultimate best.. I also have the best two coaches ever.. Rady and Karim; my managers(Thanks guys!). I'm learning so much alhamdulilah. So that's been keeping me busy for the last month almost! And here's another interesting blood rush!


As mum always called me "shawar3ageya" which has not direct translation so I will just leave it this way for those who understand it. I've been actually abusing this name these days. Now that work is around 20Km from home, I try to go around seeing different routes and combinations possible to go home in the shortest time. The other thing, is that recently I had several errands to run in new Cairo, so I've been exploring roads and getting lost in the weirdest places! I like the fact that however much I feel scared when I'm lost, when I actually reach my destination, an overall sense of satisfaction that I managed to find my way.Another blood rush!

I changed gyms, I joined a new ladies-only gym which turned out to be really good. I also got back on the healthy/limited portions diet so I'm back on the loosing weight track again... That's another rush!

Took my family out for mothers day.. we went to this amazing Lebanese restaurant in the JW Marriot. It was really cool. And speaking of restaurants, I finally tried steak@ charwoods and went to Abo el Sid! I've been wanting to do that for ages! The next on the list is Asiatique i guess but anyway.. I've been going out a lot recently .. another exciting rush!

And then, there's the other rush.. the one that actually matters.. the one you feel when you get an overall satisfaction with your life especially when you've been down for so long... A particular rush that one likes to feel and hope to keep on feeling for a long time... it might be because of all the changes, or any other reason.. or.. it might just "be". I'd stick with the "be" and hope it lasts!

الفرق بين الطبخ على نار هادئة والطبخ السريع

 لاحظت إن بقى لى فترة كل تدويناتي إما تتحدث عن الحب (أو عدمه) والمشاعر (أو عدمها) أو تدوينات حزينة نكدية بتبني جو من  الكآبة العامة اللي محدش لا طايقها ولا ناقصها اصلا. فقررت بيني وبين نفسي أني مش هكتب حتى يكون عندي شئ خفيف وظريف أكتب عنه. المشكلة للأسف اللي وجهتني هي أن كل اللي بيدور في بالي دلوقتي إما الشغل ومشاكله اللي مبتخلصش أو حوار المشاعر اللي قلت إني مش هتكلم فيه، فقررت أسكت. بس النهارده وأنا في العربية مراوحة البيت من الشغل جائت لي فكرة قلت رغم إنها بتكسر شوية القرار اللي فوق إلا إنها تمشي مع فكرة خفيفة فممكن نعملها إستثناء فكرت في قد إيه "الإعجاب أو الإنبهار" بشخص ده عامل زي طرق الطبيخ، فيها السريع واللي على نار هادئة والللي الواحد يقعد يجهز فيه ويستنى عليه في الفرن إنه يستوي، مبيستويش. طبعا أنا محبب عليا أقول "الحب عامل زي الطبيخ"، بس من ناحية، أنا لسة من كام يوم بقول إن الإعجاب محتاج كثير علشان يبقى حب أصلا، ومن ناحية تانية حسيت إن الجملة مستهلكة جدا من قبل النكت القالشة.    أنا كنت طول عمري بميل للطبيخ السريع، زي طريقة "ستير فراي"، في...

انا اسفة , مش عايزة اتنيل -0

بمناسبة شهر رمضان الكريم اللي الناس فيه بتبقى زهقانة و عايزة حكايات و بمناسبة اني كل ما اقعد قدام التلفزيون الاقي مسلسل مختلف فيه سوسن بدر بتقول لإبنها او بنتها "عقبال ما افرح بيكي و بمناسبة اذاعة مسلسل عايزة اتجوز اللي كل الناس بتبصلي اني المفروض اخده مثل اعلى و اروح ادور على عريس و بما ان عادة المصريين ان لازم ينكدوا على الواحد في اي مناسبة سعيدة و يفكروا باللي نقصوا في حياتوا و بمناسبة كلمة "عقبال" اللي عمري ما حبيتها ولا طيقتها و بمناسبة العريس الاخير , توتو عضلات اللي خلاني جبت اخري و قلت " رضينا بالهم و الهم مارضيش بينا و بمناسبة حالة الاكتئاب الاخيرة الي كنت فيها مش عارفة اشوف ربع الكوباية المليان احب اشارك معاكوا حكيتي مع الحب و الجواز و الذى منه , هاسميها "انا اسفة , مش عايزة اتنيل" . الحكاية دي فيها فضايح , و اعترافات , جزء لا بأس به من تاريخي الاسود . القصص كتير , منها الي يضحك و منها الي يبكي بس في الاخر هيا حصليت خلاص , و تسببت في تكوين شخصيتي و الي حصل حصل , و جائز لو شاركت الناس, تقدروا انا ليه بقيت كده في ناس هاتزعل مني , عادي متوقعة, ما اك...

When Love Died

Yes, love died, about a year ago. No body knows exactly when, but it was sometimes early September or late August. Can you imagine something as big as love dying and no one noticing? Well, people did notice, in a way or another, but rather they couldn't possibly imagine that love , could in fact, die! For some, it changed into other feelings; feelings that could have usually be confused with love - lust, possessiveness , compassion, familiarity, kindness, fear of loneliness or even instinctive protectiveness. But there are a few people who are still lost at see with the void that death of love left behind. They struggle to find meaning. They... Ah well,.. Here are some stories from these people: Scene 4 Greenwich Wednesday, September 4th, 2014 It wasn't very rainy that day, unlike the rest of the week, so Tom thought that today has to be the day. He stopped at Marks and Spenser's on the way to class to pick up some flowers and concealed them cleverly. The day w...
