I miss things..

I miss living a careless free life..
I miss first date jitters..
I miss feeling my heart leap at the sight of Mr. Right!
I miss playing innocent mind games..
I miss the sweetness of the very first kiss..
I miss the flirting glances..
I miss feeling the aura of masculinity
I miss touching.. and being touched..
ummm warm flesh .. seduction.. temptation..

Suddenly I feel like Monica from friends explaining to Chandler the G-spots of women and mentally loosing it while mapping! is it my hormones? or am I craving a new relationship?

Bad hair day!

After wearing my hair dark-brown/black for the longest time.. I made the stupid decision of trying to lighten it a shade or two.. I am not a fan of blond hair.. So a chocolate brown is what I was aiming for.. Being away from Kuwait for so long.. I did not really know where to go. I asked around fishing for hairdressers.. I had recommendations from everyone.. I was told about at least 8 places to try.. And I randomly chose one of them.. And got myself an appointment..

I arrived at my appointment totally excited.. I told the British hairdresser what I wanted and she smiled and said: "THAT'S IT? You will be out of here in no time"... she went on mixing the colors, and came back with 2 bowls.. One she used to cover my roots, the other she later used to cover the rest of my hair.. I thought it was weird.. But.. She said she has been doing this for 18 years.. So I trusted her.. After all, what did I know? It's only hair... It will grow.. Right?

Patiently, I waited as her assistant washed my hair.. And asked me to be seated again infront of the mirror.. it was at that moment that I noticed a bright strand!.. after asking her why it's so bright.. She said .. Not to worry when it's all dry I will see how "beautifully warm and rich my hair color is".

The first thing that came to my mind when my hair was finally dry was " MY HAIR!!!!!! MY GODDDD!!!" my roots were red.. and the ends were dark brown! it looked HORRIBLE! The hairdresser simply told me it was my fault because I was supposed to tell her my hair originally had color when I walked in! ( which I dead but she was obviously deaf at the time)

She decided that I should come back the next day and get it adjusted!.. I thought she was going to simply color it dark again.. I am not really into highlights and lowlights and all that.. to make a long story short.. I currently have red roots.. brown and dark brown strands.. mixed with a little red..any

suggestions!? hehehehe

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day

Oh yes I can make it now, the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is the rainbow I've been prayin' for
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day

Look all around, there's nothin' but blue skies
Look straight ahead, nothin' but blue skies

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Here is the rainbow I've been prayin' for
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day

Why!?

I was at a family gathering today when my cousin smsed me a note saying that there was a bomb threat in Sultan Center Salmiya and they closed the surrounding roads. I knew I had some of my younger male cousins in that area at the time.. so I immediately called them to see if it was true. Muhammad told me there was a road block but he did not know why! I freaked out and told them to come home at once! I considered myself lucky that they actually listened to me ( 18 and 19 years olds are not the easiest people to control).
As always, I sat with daddy dearest to have our nightly discussions about whatever issues are going on. We were naturally talking about current issues in Kuwait and he said something that made tears come to my eyes: "There was a time when Suicide-bombing was totally incomprehensible. The act itself was so strange that it raised so many questions on how and why ...Etc. However, Now-a-days, it is so frequent and abundant that noone reacts to the news anymore. That lack of emotion is more dangerous and threatening than any terrorist group or bomb!"
We don't have empathy anymore! and when you lack empathy you might as well live as beasts! Furthermore, It is sad to see that a country who was politically raped over and over by foreign and internal affairs has very low security measures. the Ministry of Internal Affairs pats itself on its back for finally controlling traffic and turns a blind eye to other major issues. A Shooting in 7awalli?? Innocents lost? a bomb threat the next day!? WHERE IS THE POLICE FORCE? SWAT TEAMS? INTELLIGENCE? do we lack them all ? are we that far from being a secure state? When the 9a3aida rioted in khaitan it took them 2 days to end everything!
Maybe the exaggerated security alarms in the US are not so ridiculous as most of us thought! In fact, it totally makes sense now. I only wish we had 1/4 of that security system in Kuwait!

A Friend with no Tastebuds!

It's sad but true, my friend has no tastebuds!

I have a friend that drinks orange juice with everything! even while having a Filet Mignon. the reason I am mentioning the orange juice is that I honestly believe that all that acid finally killed anything that would help her distinguish one flavor from another. I never thought much of it. All those years of REALLY SALTY FOOD or under-spiced dishes did not seem that big of a deal, I simply thought she was a bad cook! However, yeaterday something happened that alerted me to the severity of her case!

My friends and I went to Nino lastnight for dinner. We were all starving and practically drooling over the menu. So many delicious dishes but what should I pick, we each thought! after long debates and exchanged recommendations we all decided on different things. some had meat, others had chicken.. some pastas and I believe there was one who had some kind of seafood dish. My cellphone rang and I knew it was Shareefa, the one friend who was always late to ANY event. She was calling to let me know that she is on her way and asked me to order something for her.. meat or chicken, it did not matter, it was totally up to me. Shareefa arrived at the precise moment the waiter showed up with her plate. We all ate and talked, gossiped and laughed. Everyone was full, satisfied and ready to leave when Shareefa asked me "Which Chicken dish is this? it was so good!" at that point I gasped and stared at her comepletely blank. I was hoping to find any sign on her face that would tell me she was kidding!
Finally, I looked at her and said " Beef Medallions!"
