HAPPPYYY BIRTHHDAYYYY DEAR MOOOOODYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

now, its not everyday one has a birthday, well, it occurs precisely once a year!!!! so i would like to tell you a bit about her…

Moody and I have been buddies for a long time, and here are 5 facts about her you may not know when you first meet her:

1) She is super hard working – despite her chilled out persona

2) She is a super loyal friend and would go to great lengths for her friends!

3) She is good at everything she does – not just good – pretty flipping phenomenal (i have said this before – but i have to mention it again)

4) She tells it like it is – no beating around the bush! She will be honest with you and doesn’t care if it hurts your feelings (I respect this a lot)

5) She has a pink room – out of her on choosing! :D

Happy Birthday Moody!!!!

i hope  you have a wonderful day and an amazing year ahead!!!

I LOVEEEEEE YOUUUUUUU

One of those Days: Back to the GYM!

28 Apr

SLC%20Gym%20sign%20compressed%20for%20web

Well…techniqually…not yet there! But there’s no harm in preparing myself by writing this post and making it official so there wouldn’t be any way out! :P

It all started 3 weeks ago when I suddenly decided that I want to join the gym again, and not any gym, a gym that I would enjoy…feel comfortable at and have fun! So I thought of my friend who has been taking working out very seriously for the past year probably and have progressed dramatically. She has told me so much about her gym and how awesome it is, and I got a bit excited to be honest.

The fact is that am not a weight freak. I would love to be in perfect shape yes, I do have freaky diets every now and then YES! but I just think it would be a shame not to be active and workout on regular basis when I actually can!

So I made sure to pass by and checkout the place, it felt nice and decided to start a week after. Sadly that’s when I got sick and postponed the thing a week more. and then my mum got sick and we all got busy taking care of her! But now its official, next week ill be going to the gym, like it or not Moody, YOU ARE GOING!!

Anyone has any tips for me?

Cause: Eat Healthy Q8

17 Apr

obesity AD 24x30cm w5cmbleed

“EatHealthyQ8 is a first of its kind Nationwide initiative that focuses on children with the help of their parents to improve their eating habits, and to curb the growing trend of childhood obesity in Kuwait. The EatHealthyQ8 Initiative is a collaborative effort by Diet Center Kuwait with the cooperation of the Public Administration for Private Education, The Ministry of Education, The Ministry of Health and the International Organization for Migration along with ARGANA Hotels and Resorts. The initiative of the initiative is to engage 10 different schools to enroll 30 children ages 11 to 14 in the EatHealthyQ8 program. The month-long program teaches children the benefits of proper eating habits and physical activities as part of a healthy lifestyle.”

This is such a great initiative that everyone should take seriously and support. I personally was one of the kids who grew up thinking that i always had to finish my plate, it didn’t make me fat, but it definitely forced me to take extra kilos here and there. Its something am working on myself and wanting to change. What about you?

Event: Earth Hour

23 Mar

 

Today the world is celebrating Earth Hour. It’s a move that was made to help humanity and protect this planet for our next generations. What are you going to do today? You can help by doing the simplest things of switching off the lights of your house, your gadgets and just appreciate the darkness and silence for an hour. And please don’t just choose to go to bed :P

Too bad ill be working at the time, but I would have enjoyed celebrating it :)

I have participated for 4 years in a row, then I stopped, its like every time something comes up that stops me from going, but it shouldnt stop YOU! go on and have a blast with your family and friends.

This year NBK is doing something a bit different, not only you will be walking supporting your OWN cause, but you can also win Galaxy Camera by taking a picture of the walkathon. The best 3 pictures will win the Galaxy camera, now that’s pretty cool ;)

Goodbye Messi

6 Mar

532599_571413806911_192000915_30930143_2009320387_n

And before you even start thinking of it, NO he did not die. And incase you don’t know the story, Messi was my pet cat, i got him a year ago, you can read about it HERE.

Now thinking about it, I can’t believe its been a year! Look at him in that picture, he was soooo petit!! he grew up so fast, and all i can say is that he was such a fun cat. He likes to play rough, he bites playfully, he runs alot..and after things, he loves to catch flies, and obviously loves to drink tab water.

The sad part is that he grew up so fast, he became more needy, and moody, and can easily trigger my mum. I started to have allergy, and I didn’t wanna admit that it’s probably because of him and still not admitting, and my parents thought its time.

I didn’t have a say in this obviously, its their house, their rules, but I just wished I had a place where I could keep him. So it took them a week to find out about K’S PATH (cuz I acted as if I didn’t know they existed) and made their decision. They took him last week, and since then the house is very different without him. It’s just like having a baby in the house…literally.

I havent been to K’S PATH before, but i have heard some good things about them. It’s just bad that they are located in Wafra which makes it a hassle to drive all the way, but I will definitely visit soon, and help in any way its possible.

So this is my goodbye to Messi, you have been such a great pet, and will always be missed.

One of those Days: The Past & The Present

30 Jan

9past-present-future

It’s weird how people complain whenever they have something that’s bothering them, and once its over, they stop appreciating how good it feels not having that thing that gives them a headache. Sadly, I can be one of those people sometimes, but it hits me every now and then and I start appreciating more. But you know, it bugs me how I don’t talk about it enough or acknowledge it anymore. This is way am writing this post, to show my appreciation in something that used to bug the hell out of me, which is all you know by now…WORK!

This whole blog started because me and Cheeky were bitching the whole time about work, and it was definitely a great get away for both of us, it made us laugh and be more connected, It was Cheeky’s idea and ill always love her for that..and many other things :P

When i look back and remember how awful I used to feel about my job, how much I used to hate my boss, how bad no one gave a shit, and how much I felt unappreciated! I used to talk to my best friends about it and complain and complain. I used to do everything I could possibly do to improve the situation, but every time I get pushed away and back to point zero. Life felt so unfair at that time, and it hurt my feelings a lot, it made me feel angry towards some people, feelings that I have never felt before, except for those people.

But right now, I don’t complain about work at all, because simply I don’t have anything to complain about! Al7amdilla my boss is awesome, work is not too crazy but definitely way more enjoyable. I feel comfortable around people and happy in my office. and best of all, I feel appreciated, and that what matters.

I can’t deny the fact that I miss my buddies at my old job, they were the best people to talk to even when you are all bitching about work, cuz we all knew how bad it was. I also miss the gossiping and the rumors that people used to pass around. I didn’t get to make good friends at my new job yet, but ill always remember my old buddies :D

That’s it, I just felt like letting this out, in a way or another to show how much I appreciate the opportunity that I got and everything that I have now. If you are going through what I went through, ill tell you this “good things happen to those who wait”, my best friend used to tell me this and I kept laughing about it until it did happen. Just don’t give up!
