"أغنم زمانك أمانه يا حبيبي أغنم"


I am not a procrastinator, at least i don't think i am, i always manage to get my things done on time.. (**prompt i am not though) 

But there is one thing i don't get really, why is it that i almost always get the "essence" of a chapter/lesson after i've done the test/exam? 

It's like i am lost throughout the course, then comes the exam which i study hard for, and then when it's way past due and its being graded, i get my "AHA" moment.. 

My definition of an "AHA" moment is  when everything suddenly seems to fall into place and i finally start realizing that it was easier than it seemed to me whilst i was lost in all those class times, when the rest of the class was participating and asking question.. 

Thats when i go, "i should have so studied/read the chapter before class" (**happens so many times i can't even keep track), and funnily, i don't even bother and the cycle goes on.. 

Come to think of it, this also always happens in other non-study related aspects, when i finally get it, it's almost always too late... 

Life can be ironic i guess.. 

PS. Nearing the end to find that the end is only midway, such a misleading map..

"يا عزوتي يا ترى وين الظواعن دواجي؟ لوين هم سايرين ؟"

This used to be one my key guiding principles/beliefs:

"Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away." -George Elliot 

Now I believe in restricting myself to the weather, celebrities and anything that is on the mass media vehicles (TV, Radio, Magazines, etc.); in another word, common knowledge. 

PS. "Never explain yourself- your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway"-Elbert Hubbard

Guitar Hero! I'm loving it! "أنا أحبه"

C'est tres amazing!!
I didn't need a new addiction..
Releasing the inner punk guitar rocker; its such a good outlet!  
But not so good for the fingers and arms, can you say cramps?!

Shoe Lovers Rejoice!! 

Loved this advertising/promotional campaign, very genius if i do say so myself.. Its shot by Miles Aldrigde for the New York Time Style Magazine (**the things you find whilst surfing the internet, i think i'd go into a fatal depression if i was to be stripped of my internet connection).. 







On a final note, "Some addictions are destructive"..
