My Planned Week :(

Uni was great. Exams are done with. The last 2 weeks of uni all I did was plan my week in AD with my friends. I was really looking forward to it. But I’ve realized something, every time I really plan for anything, it doesn’t work out. This time of course it was my mom who brought down the plans by not letting me go on Friday, saying we’ll go on Saturday. I don’t believe in delay. I think people go through a lot of problems because they postpone. Delay studying till the last minute. Delay doing homework. Delay cleaning the bedroom. Delay fixing the car. Delay going to the bank. We would get all these things done, AND many more, if we just DID NOT DELAY. But we delayed. Saturday OF COURSE mom delayed till Sunday (fully knowing that I had my heart set on this week being away from Al Ain because God knows how much I need the break.) What happened after that? She got sick. But of course. There’s no one to drive me to AD. Plans with the cousins have all been cancelled (I’m sick of making them delay their plans on account of me, so I just told them I was probably not going to make it and they could go ahead and do their thing). I wanted to see Thurayya’s new baby girl. I wanted to see my Uncle Hassan (he just got back from Yemen and he saw my dad, and I want to hear all about it, plus I want to see his little baby). I wanted to chill with Saeeda and Yusra. Most of all I wanted to hang out with my angel face cutie pie njooli njooli Maha. But of course, because of DELAY, none of that is going to happen. I swear the only thing that got me through the last 2 weeks of uni was my visualizing this one week of paradise before summer courses (which start next week, which meanst this was my only week off, and that is why I planned so much!) I had told mom my plans weeks in advance to make sure she didn’t make any changes on account of: "I didn’t know you made plans..."
I NEED AIR. I need to breathe walla I’m chocking on this sheer dullness, and I'm chocking on boredom, and I'm chocking on people's inconsiderate DELAYS to MY plans.
Last night I cried my heart out (this is how serious I took it). Today I’m much better (I’ve gotten into the “indifferent” phase – I don’t care, I’m sick of asking when are you going to take me to AD). But I think I’m just a teeny bit bitter.
Quote of the day: Boredom is like a pitiless zooming in on the epidermis of time. Every instant is dilated and magnified like the pores of the face.
Excuse me; I’m going to go scream now.

I'm sorry to hear about your plans, too. I know you were going stir crazy at uni and looking forward to a break. I feel horrible for you.

I don't know if it helps, I know how you feel. When I was younger I missed a lot of opportunities to hang out with my angel face cutie pie njooli njooli Maha.

Obviously, I have no idea what I'm talking about. I'm just trying to make you smile. ;-)

Joe...angel face cutie pie njooli njooli is my way of saying : cuuuute, and Maha is wafaa's sister...But yeh i did laugh. My brother is getting his liscence soon..he's a crazy 18 year old but he's promised me the world..so im looking fwd to it...
heheh i would've though of that on my own!but no they won't let me take the bus...girl in a bus in this country?its virtually unheard of. Plus mom's waayy too protective. I've never even been in a cab on my own...can u believe it? How the hell am i going to make it in the real world?lol

true true, i would never take the bus alone from al ain to abudhabi. but id take the bus if you and maha were with me, and not the big buses u know those small 15 people ones, they're decent. basma the cabs are fine within city limits, i think those overprotective people are too overprotective, but im sure you know that already.. hehe. basma i woke up at 8.30am today to start studying, im so proud of myself! now i actually have to study :( .. see u later x

these ppl whose rules i have to abide by are more concerned about 'social status' than safety...u'd never see an Ameri chick in a cab would u? But in AD cabs are safe cuz everything is nearby..in Al Ain everything is at least 15 minutes away (at least!)
Ghazal or Express cabs or busses are cool but only for necessary chores n going to AD to chill is not categorized as 'necessary"..know what i mean? GOD SO MANY RULES!!!
Anyway..im proud of u angel face cutie pie njooli njooli ur so hardworking mashalla!

Your brother has promised you the world? That's great, but where are you going to put it? Also, have you considered what you'll charge us for rent? I need to start budgeting.

I'm crushed. Nobody ever calls me 'angel face cutie pie njooli njooli' or offers to give me the world for that matter. I have to start hanging out with better people.
