A taste of Motherhood.

A lot of things have happened within the past fortnight. Some mad things, some happy things, and some disturbing things.

1. I went to westfields recently, that place is HUUUGE! I know I'm mega late at going there, but I honestly thought the hype around it was just talk. But it honsetly is awesome! Me and my sisters got the most expensive dresses from House of Fraiser and went into the poshest fitting rooms (sneaking in a compass) and praying; it's the best method for praying outside when there's no prayer room :D Now here comes the funny bit, there was a guy with his girlfriend and she was trying on a super expensive dress, so she came out of the changing cubicle to show him and he looked mega uninterested and just nodded his head for the sake of it, then when she went back to change, I saw her boyfriend nervously checking the contents of his wallet. I wanted to point and laugh sooo badly! But there was an actual opportunity for me to point and laugh later that day; while checking pijamas in a store Miss Short fuse tripped on a fragment of imagination or her own shoes, then fell ontop of the shop's window display's poster. Miss. Short fuse then fell to the ground and the poster toppelled ontop of her, leaving broken pieces of apparatus hanging from the ceiling. I actually stood still and laughed, along with a friend and Miss. Pain in the Ass, we all just laughed at her.

2. I've had family come over from egypt and this hasn't happened in the past 10 years or so, hence I was really excited, but the kids that accompany the adults are a bit tough to handle, what worried me was the extent of x-rated knowledge the 11 year old girl had. Excuse me, but with an upringing in egypt I had expected a limitation on society's side of things for this little girl but the damaging consequences are that this childish and still immature 11 year old now thinks she's an adult, when she still wants plastic beaded necklaces! What happened to the innocence of ignorance for our children? Why do they get to know about such things so early on in life? Why oh why are there billboards of half naked wemon everywhere you go? So when my cousin's 7 year old son asks 'is that a naked woman' and I obviously can't answer anything else and say 'yes' and he replies 'wow' I have a right to get worried!!! I'm worried for the future, like I seriously am.

3. I had a taste of motherhood the other day, it was enlightening/embaressing/aggravating. I needed to go to he library on an errend for my dad, and he told me to take the kids with me, the initial thought was 'whadafa?' but then the realisation that I'd have to use to pushchair for one of the kids (as he's pretty sick at the moment) made me think 'HELL NO!' but I resigned.... I ended up pushing a pushchair all the way down my local high street with the embaressing thought 'does everyone think these two semi-blonde children are my CHILDREN?' and I had to keep them quiet cus they got over excited for some reason, so I had to act all strict.. gah! It's hard to make them like you and be strict at the same time ya know!

4. Me and the other misses sneaked out of the house, told a lie to the adults and went to Canary Wharf!!!! OMG!!!! This is probably the biggest form of rebelliousness I have ever experienced, the thing that contradicts our rebelliousness is that it was all to buy a father's day present.. we got him Austen Reed shirts (nice shirts they have too). We ate wagamamas!! (seafood ramen yay!) We had amazing ice-cream! We saw Old Kent Road! (one less thing to see off the monopoly map) BUT WE LIED! Oh the guilt! buuuuuuuuuut! All was told the next day (good thing dad was happy with the shirts otherise I doubt he would've over-ridden our huge fat lie).

5. I've been crying alot recently, oh don't get me wrong, I'm not sad or anything, (not that I don't have an excuse to be) I just came across this rather controversial manga and it was a tragedy (stay away from tragedies ppl! they make your eyes go red and puffy) and I was really bawling! Like really crying my eyes out! like mad waterfall typed tears and arhythmic breathing that sounds similar to a donkey cry... (I shouldn't admit that). It was so pathetic! Because the ending was sooo made up on the stop! But sooo sad! And after a while I was like 'this manga is actually really crappily weird' because the male protagonist loves his girlfriend so much he'll point a gun at her O.O and say 'there was no other choice' ???? O.o Puleeease!! Spare me! >_< And the male protagonist really got on my nerves, but when you're reading manga really quickly (like what I do) you don't really stop to think 'this guy ought to be killed' because you just want to know what will happen next.

6. I have resumed eating lunches, but I just sorta eat whenever I feel like I'm actually hungry and not just eatiing for the sake of eating like what some people do when they're bored. But i must confess, there was a paticular day I remember that I had barely any sleep (for idiopathic reasons) and the rest of the day I was hungry like mad! and I just ate small and little bits of food contantly and got me annoyed because I ended up not being able to leave the kitchen except to go to the living room for meal time!!!

To Fullah and Mozzerella: dare to find spelling mistakes!!!

  6. LOL DESSA I LOVE YOU AND WILL BE IN LONDON ON THE 3rd =D cant wait to give you the biggestest hug everest!!

    as for the corrections LOL either im so use to yuor typos or i do too many to notice (btw, the only reason im only slightlybetter than you is becuase im highly dependent on mozilla firefoxs smart spellcheck, which doesnt seem to be wokring at the moment :( and dont bitch at me about apostrophe...my Michael is kinda old and he does have a couple of buttons that dont working)

    as for your post:

    1. i too am interested to see this Westfields...but i mean, we have malls popping out of every empty plot of land (and have two particularily huge ones) that i doubt its gonna give me the same effect

    2. my 11year old nephew also knows too much for his age...and i blame it on tv

    3. know the feeling, even though my 2 eldest nephews are grown up enough (11 and 9) i STILL get paranoid when im given the responsability of looking after them

    4. youre so cute, i wonder what will happen when you actually LIE to your parents, because that just doesnt count

    5. dude: i cried in the rugrats movie... .... like seriously! it doesnt get worse than that

    6. woohoo to lunchs :)

  8. Melvi's comments are the best!!! I'll take you to westfields, apparently it's the biggest one in europe. It raised my eyebrows so I think it'll raise yours too.

    I hope micheal's doing well for his old age. You must take care of him, don't burn him out.

    You cried in the rugrats movie???? Dude, I thought you crying for Alladin was bad enough... but rugrats???? You can't even empathise with those kids!!!

    Btw I think soudi i a little too accepting of ultra young mums or odd marriages in general, when my sister went to omra, the guards thought that she was my dad's bride O.O MAD!!!

  9. aaww thanks sweetheart! my comments are just...like I said: long! haha

    i know its the biggest in Europe, but i mean...i come from the Arabian Gulf, we do malls like no one else. i will get shocked but not insanely.

    Michael is bearing with me, bless him!

    Yeh *blush* i cried. Cause Tommy felt all responsible for losing his younger bro and it made me cry...LOL im that pathetic. i don't think i cried in Aladdin i just fell in love lol but I did cry in Tarzan.

    Saudi is beyond anyone's imagination. its not a country that can be explained or its viewpoints described in one way...its a very schizophrenic country! (seriously, it is)
