I gave my self peace and quiet today.. I had my yearly performance review at work and I pretty much kept my mouth shut for three reasons:

1. I was praised for something I didn’t even realize I have done. It seems people in higher positions like me without actually telling me or saying anything.
2. When I talked to my boss I really didn’t have the heart to bitch and complain. He has always been nice to me and suffered through my crazyiness and bad temper. He just blamed it on me being a hot tempered Palestenian girl. I just thought oh well. I will just go with the flow. I have managed 5 years working here. Another year won’t kill me. I will just take it easy and only concentrate on my work and ignore anything or anyone that bothers me.
3. I was given a decent raise which bumps me up to ~230 bucks extra a month..

So how is that? Everyone proud of me?? I didn’t bitch or complain!! As Cady in Mean Girls would imply.. NO WORD VOMIT! yaaay.. Two thumbs up for me.. :P

oooh.. I just realized that my birthday is in 23 days.. and also my blog will be 1 years old! So on December 23rd there will be a celebration :P .. hahaha

You know.. I was just flipping through the channels and came across the top 10 on Much Music. Number one was playing.. and it was Meatloaf with this Marion chick. He was singing Celine Dion’s song: It’s all Coming Back to me Now. I WAS LIKE WOW!! I loved Celine’s version.. but this one is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better. I love duets. I am a sucker when a guy and gal sings a love song of some sort.. I get goose bumps..

I have been tense a lot lately.. for the past 5 days I have been devouring chocalate or any form of sugar like crazy.. I donno why. I don’t even crave it. People think I am depressed or something that is why I been eating it. Then I checked my blood pressure and heart rate today at the drug store. VERY LOW blood pressure but 100 heart beats per minute. So yah. I am loosing it. My blood pressure was like 100/60.. it is too much below normal? I think normal is like 120/80 .. I think. Don’t quote me on that. Maybe I am a walking zombie.. lol But I should eat more chips or pickles or something.. also I have been sleeping a lot lately! Like over 8 hours of sleep a night. By the time is is 9:30 pm I am dead tired! I never ever slept that much. I usually sleep 5 or 6 hours and I feel fresh. Now I just get so tired. Also my motivation level is so low. I just need to move to an island with tropical breeze!!

And yes I complain a lot.. DUH! That’s what I do best!

You know what I hate in this world. I hate attention grabbers. I hate people who purposely say stupid things in order for others to notice them. You know what I make these people out to be. They are called my SPAM list. So if you are that then you should be honored to be a member of my SPAM collection.

Thank you for wasting my time, however you should be considerate to the rest of my visitors who don’t need to suffer through your pathetic behavior and foul language.

My friend Asil came over this weekend and she brought me with her a Godiva chocolate box.. All I can say this shit is GOOD! Damn it.. I used to eat Godiva chocalate bars.. and I would go to Chapters (book store) that sold 3 pieces of Godiva chocolates for like 15 dollars! This stuff is made by pros. She got me a whole box. It is almost 100 bucks maybe more.. Oh she knows my weak spots.. Also the box came with labels and names of each chocolate.. so gooood! I am eating some pieces now as I am typing.. I am in such a good mood now.. better then drinking Cola and eating Kit-Kat chunky bars!!

“If you can’t code the code, don’t bother trying to rewrite it.” Quote, unquote by Rebellious Arab Girl. AKA - MONA the Great.

You spend hours and hours trying to perfect the code. However, as time catches up to you and pinches you in the ass you realize that you have mistakenly deleted your main executable files. Even the source code for the executable due to the fact that the file extensions for the executable ends with *. This was created using a makefile that was written by someone else. You are desperately in need to remove the executable due to things beyond your thinking at the time by typing the command: rm screwThis* to realize yes; it removed that file. However, all the files named screwThis.c & screwThis.h .. etc were also deleted it. What do you do next? From the panic of forgetting to backup, time constraints and complete and utter fatigue and lost of emotions and feelings in your brain, hands and any other body part that needs oxygen; you realize that the only thing you can do is take your laptop, smash it to the floor and hope that insurance will pay for your stupidity, your anger and bad coding habits.

This is a true story witnessed by me a while back and it brought back horrible memories and my breathing and lack of oxygen to my brain is causing me to almost pass out at this very moment of time. However, the part about smashing the laptop was exagerated but the keyboard suffered severe bruises from constant typing and rewriting two main program files within 30 min and expecting it to complile and work. Miracles do happen and human memory works great under pressure. It remembers things that should not be remembered.

Being a programmer is the lowest type of human labour. It is ranked at the level of chimney sweepers and toilet bowl cleaners.

The day shall come when I will no longer become a subject to oppression. Damn you computer codes with your stupid binaries. Burn in hell!

I discovered I am a morning person and I am just up way too early. I do have a bad migrane but I am drinking extra strong Starbuck’s coffee called “Christmas Blend”.. It taste the same as French Roast. This is a rip off! I demand my money back .. even though I am almost done drinking the cup.. I still want a refund dammit!!

Aah.. so I am just sitting here going to spend my morning browsing the net and writing a very long report and then head off to the mall to spend. Since today is the international don’t spend day or whatever. I already spent 4.00 bucks on breakfast and coffee. I am on a role! Furthermore, since I have not been shopping for the past 3 weeks almost for anything really for my self I am going to go crazy today. It’s the perfect DAY! It’s going to be awsome.. spend spend spend mall mall mall.. lol Ahh maybe I am in a better mood this morning than last night but I am still suffering from a headache since last night and lots of doubts but I will get over it by the weekend. I am very moody and I change my mood within a couple of hours or over night anyways..

Let me finish my coffee… yummm .. caffeine!
