Do You Like Chasing or Being Chased?

Now I open my eyes and see the great expectations that I am put under.

Family expectations and other aspects that require a concrete strong will to overcome.

Peer pressure.

Time management.

Teen interests.

Chasing dreams.

And sometimes,
chasing the unnecessary.

It all boils down to ME.

Ways I Lost Friends

Weird, sad, unexpected, my fault, his, whatever the reason may be it all ended the same.. one less person to call friend.

let's start shall we.

I lost a friend because (of):

1) A Girl - Simple. We liked the same girl. She can only like one of us. In the end, the girl chose, one guy was the happiest boy in the world, one was cursing the other from the bottom of his bitter heart and a friendship had gone.

2) Body Weight - When you are hanging out with the fat kid at school, it just doesn't do wonders for your popularity. I didn't know what "quality over quantity" meant back then, so I chose to have more "friends".

3) Distance - I'm sure everyone can relate to this. Some friendships aren't just mile-proof. More so if you were 8 and mobiles and emails weren't at your disposal yet.

4) Nothing - People change? They get sick of you? Whatever it is, this is the most cumbersome so far that I have encountered. There's just too many questions. Especially, if he doesn't care to even explain anymore.

5) His Sister - I told him his sister was hot without any malice intended. I got a punch as a reply. Tragic. Well he is Arab. They marry their sexy cousins.

6) Wrong Impressions - You thought he was a "chill" guy, turns out he is a pathological liar. He said he has 5 girls dying over him and a dude, all at the same time. right.

7) I graduated (Primary, that is) - Or I switched schools. Similar to the distance issue, some friends are only friends in certain places. How many "School friends" do you have?

8) Lack of Money - I was on a budget. Wasn't able to keep up with the cost of going to his whereabouts and all his antics. So He looked for a richer guy to hang with.

9) A New Cooler Guy - He started hanging out with the new guy all the time. Everybody likes a shiny new toy right? After that you are just second priority.

10) Danger - I am not the most responsible friend that you will have, that I'll admit. But I thought good friends should stick with each other through highs and lows. This guy chose to take flight the very first sign of it. *puke* Courageous! ;)

Well.

It's true what they say. They come and they go. But some sticks around longer than you expect. Don't take them for granted.

un-Eventful School Days and Me Skipping Joyfully

I got my report card a few weeks back. It basically contains all the great things, or mostly, you can say short comings that I made for the previous school year.

Apparently I was absent, give or take, around 5 weeks all in all. Now that, in my book is definitely not a short coming. Not at all! OH, and I was 9th in class? Not that it matters much.. Ha! 5 Weeeeeeks!

Anyways, today was officially the 3rd day of operation in our school. I am so sad right now as I 'missed' school today. It kills me.

Instead, I was at home, relaxing and watching films while enjoying a plate of meaty bolognaise. So dreadful...

Anyways I hope I dont miss classes tomorrow again. That would just do me such an enormous pain. As..

I just love my school so much.

So as a tribute here are some pichas for you, my friend. Gaze in amazement!



"We keep things pretty organize in our room- We are all about being 'High Class' "

"Talk about a pretty view :)"

"Time Table of Hell : When Do Trannies Get Their Break?" (Look closely)

"We keep each other sane. If they have a chance to talk right now the other one will say "25 dirhams an hour" (You know, RUSSIANS are..) and the other will say "No, I am not Indian!"

And lastly, this is how all the bus rides home look like. Annoying kids (left photo) and my friend and neighbour with the bat-shit crazy face (right).

Till then! It's effing harder than it looks to do photo posts! (Or is it just me?)

P.S. - Header shot is me looking "very sad" missing school today. With some facial mud mask on. LOL (So much for first impressions ei?) ;)

Crime on the Last Day of Teenage Freedom

Yesterday was a pretty cool day. It went just little too fast for my liking actually.

Guess where we dined at. (We pretended to own the place for the night aswell)

Well it's no other place than *da da da da* TACO BELL! The fanciest chain in the whole latin world! Woooh!.

Er, Latin World?! Nevermind me.

So me and my good chums dove our faces on burritos and preteded we were going down on.... yeah. People were staring. We didn't mind as we were too busy sharing our grip techniques. *wink*

So all was well and good. But the show stealer of the night was a random dude.

I didnt know this guy but boy is he a saint in my book now. And to think he just passed by our table and did nothing else.

I'll explain.

As I think most of you now know, I live in Dubai, UAE which is in the lovely, middle east! Naturally, it is a muslim country.

That guy was wearing a shirt.

Sounds pretty innocent, ye? But what's ON his shirt would not gather smiles from A LOT of people here. I assure you.

It read -

"Gay Pride" in rainbow colors. Keyword, RAINBOW.

My mouth went slighlty ajar. No I'm lying! It was wide fucken open in astonishment and disbelief.

Boy was he asking for IT. Brave man! Brave man indeed!

He probably got sent to the slammers before the night ended though. Sad face.
(Consider this story if you think I'm exaggerating on getting jailed here for a shirt.)

Whatever. Salute to the random dude! Wherever he maybe now. Convicted or not convicted, it shall remain a mystery.

Unless he gets into the papers! Wooot! GLAM-O-ROUS!

So that's what little fun I had before I go back to the centre for the obnoxious and slighlty incapacitated in the head youths that is, my school. Let's say this together! YEY for Nahlej!

Till then! I'm ironing my white shirt for tomorrow! *school girl giggles*

Update - Proves I need to go back to school.. It was actually suppose to be spelt as knowledge, not nahlej. Sealy me! ha! I learn something new Evridei.

Best Friends Forever!!

I love my friends. Unfortunately, some don't love me back

Reconnecting with old friends that I haven't seen in awhile is pretty awesome to me. Though, I'm pretty sure, they USUALLY want me to fudge off.

Also, I like helping them out, being of service/ in anyway possible. IN return, it takes a week of nagging in my part for my "can't be arsed" people to comment on this lovely blog. (Ha! yes i force them to visit.)

Well, the other day, a friend took the cake for being the epitome of the things that I am saying.

Whilst I was on FaceBook being jobless like 90% of normal teenagers, I discovered that an old "friend" of mine had an account already. With a little bit of stalking, I found out that she already had my cousin as a friend and didn't even bother to add me.

I was devastated, ofcourse!!

We WERE so close! .... Well in my eyes, we were.

My ego threw a fit, so I did not add her and instead, messaged her first. I thought this would be a great tactic that will prompt her to add me. If only i knew any better.

So read on to watch my lameness in action. Here are the threaded messages.

Soggy: HATE you! NO ADD ME?! friggin despise you now... :(

Chanel: because it's an EXCLUSIVE facebook! only for CLOSE FRIENDS!!! hahahaha!! notice i have like less than 10 friends!

Soggy: ouch. that WAS really hurtful! LIKE WHOA! u r still the same. ur words are like KNIVES! damn.....thats why i love you!! damn miss you!!

Chanel: my words are like knives?? stop being such a drama queen.. i guess youve been practicing because of your blog.. yeah i read it (thanks to RAE (= ) hehe. well, i have to commend you.. it is FUNNY.. in a sort of desperate, like WTF?! way. hahaha! but still, its funny.so i give you credit. haha. and i know you love me.. miss you tooo!! =)

Soggy: ..... n u still havent added me... wow. thanks. get the note, ADD ME!!!

Chanel: im still thinking.. =l

SOggy: wtf?.

Soggy: i need you in my life...

____

at this point, I realised some things.

1) Bitch.. IM still waiting for my request!

2) I have a bitchin ego. why dont i just add her?!

3) My cousin is promowhroing my blog! LMFAO! extra love goes to her!

Anyways so that's that. I hope you guys have better friends than I do.

Well, I guess I'm a bad friend too, if my "friends" don't stick around. There's got to be a reason, yeah? OH well. ill think about that on another day.

Till then. I'll try to message her again. This time, with CAPS on. Ha!

P.S.- That is my Facebook Wall. Feast with your eyes stalkers. ;)

They Come, They Go But They Stay.

Today was a bittersweet day.

It was totally fun to finally be out there and have fun with friends after being stuck in a rut for the past few days. Yes, I hibernated.

I do it sometimes. And I pray to God that such a thing is normal for adolescence. Though, I do doubt it , as even I find myself abnormal.

Anywho, I had mixed emotions about today just because it is my last hang out with a couple of my friends for god knows how long. They are leaving this place (I don't blame them) for a place known for black bears, maple syrup and retired old people. Canada.

It's all good and all as I am genuinely happy for them. Starting a "new life" is a pretty exciting idea. Being left behind, on the other hand, is not.

So to commemorate the departure of my lovely friends. We did what should be done.

Grab some yummy, JUICY hotdogs! Throw in a lot of laughs and you get an epic moment that will last for a lifetime.

Afterwards, we did the obligatory walking around in circles, hands on shoulders. It suited the occasion reather well, I must say.

Because you see, friction makes people closer.

I always thought and still do think that leaving people is easier than being left behind. The latter sucks a greater deal. I should know. I left so many people behind in the past. It's easier, really.

I admit, I am bad at keeping in touch. I hate that about me.

One thing is for sure. Even if we grow apart, nothing can take away the times we spent together. Even if I get to lazy to E-mail in the future, I know it and they know it. We will still have each other, in one way or another.

And that idea is JUST Effing AWESOME!

Till then. I am going to tuck in.
