Happy New Year everyone. On this rainy strange day that I am not used to I greet everyone with a new happy year. I know it’s not the new year yet in Canada, but still. Everyone else in the world celebrated already.. blah! Anyways.. this year. I will have more realistic new year’s resolutions that I want to go by this year. Not just write them in my blog. I will write them on a piece of paper as things I want to accomplish this year! A task list.

1. Have an optimistic view of the future.
2. Try to see the positive side of people.
3. Try to go out more with people. Not isolate my self regretting the past.
4. I have to finish my current projects at work!! Aaah it’s taking forever!
5. Try to network with more people and see what is out there. My city has good opportunities and I really want to work at a digital printing company or a health or environmental company.
6. Invest in more stocks and bonds since I did really well last year. Doubled my stocks and increased my bonds by 10%! Not bad eh?
7. Try to be nice to everyone and control my anger. It’s always my problem but I really have to control my temper!
8. I have to stop reading horoscopes! I know I am a Capricorn and I am awesome! — this will never happen! :lol:
9. Stop arguing. I will never be a lawyer (I hate writing!) so no need to keep arguing! Wait did I just say I hate writing? Now I am on crack! I meant I hate memorizing! :lol:
10. Stop hating rainy weather and blaming the gloomy weather on my depression. I am no longer depressed! I am cool! Been cool for 6 months.. (Why does this sound like I was on drugs?)

Anyways. I bid everyone farewell and wish everyone a happy new year. 2007 will be awesome! See ya next year!

Ok.. I am really sick of going to blogs and seeing people displaying the hanging of Saddam Hussein’s full video. STOP IT! Why is everyone having great joy of posting it? What is accomplished by this? Nothing… Saddam was gone long time ago. Killing him was just a normal Islamic method. In Islam we learned this: “El Katil Yoktal!” .. And that’s it. It means: “He who has killed must be killed!” End of story. No need to display the event everywhere on the net and cheering about it! Millions of people die a day from worst things. Look at the problems going on in Somalia, Asia, other countries with endless wars and problem.

Seeing an Arabic former leader being hanged on international television is a disgrace. Not only that, it was done on our Eid. On the holiest nights of the year! This is not a gift, it was a slap in the face of every Muslim that the world mocks us! No wonder the Arabic world keeps going backwards. So I refuse to go to anymore sites that keep cheering about his death. Believe me. He is gone but some one worse will come. All I can say history repeats it self. Nothing ever changes!

I cannot believe people find joy in the death of others. It’s disgusting. I refused to speak of this yesterday or post about it because I wanted to just enjoy Eid, but I can’t believe people find it joyous cause of his death. And people hope he burns in hell? Believe me. Of all the things he has done in his life time. His hanging and suffering on this earth and his prayers and saying “Ashado anna la illaha illa allah” (There is no God but one God) before he died will make God feel pity on him and not make his after life as brutal as you humans want it to be!

Aaah I am so mad.. Guys grow up seriously and stop posting the suffering of others. If others hated you would you want to see people mocking you and making fun of you?

Ok.. so I went shopping again today.. (AGAIN!) with my mom.. we went to Sears Outlet store. Has clothes, furniture, etc. So my mom loves that place. She finds really good deal and clothes for her liking. I just walk around cause I have no interest in anything really. I just browse through the layers of clothes. Have to fight my way through people just to look at a sweater.. So I just gave up. I was in no mood at looking at clothes. So I went to the furniture section and just sat on a nice wide comfy couch. It was nice! It was $440 bucks too! I was tempted to buy it than I though where the hell would I put this? lol So I will get to my point. I just sat there looking at people passing by. I saw old women that looked like men (I hate boy cut hair cuts on women!) .. I saw lots of Indians and Pakistanis for some reason. I saw lots of Arabs too with their loud abnoxious kids whining to get a toy or eat! But what amazed me most were those obese people. I am not saying fat. I know I am fat with huge Arabic hips but those people are two of me! So I felt sorry for one lady whose boobs were hanging out so far out that they looked like missiles ready to shoot! I was like holy! I felt bad for her cause she looked like at least 300 pounds! Then I saw a guy. Huge guy. Was wearing a tight sweater and had boobs! I looked and I was like wtf! His boobs were bigger than mine!!!!! And he had a huge beer belly. I was like wow. Now that is disgusting. Then I remembered I saw this advertisement for male bras. GUYS WEAR BRAS? That’s just wrong! I was pretty disgusted and tired by then. I just kept looking at people and thought to my self. None of them were in any way attractive. People who come to this store are ugly. I want out! :lol: So I went to find my mom and told her to hurry up. She is like no. Go away. Go find stuff to buy! I was so pissed and tired by then. So I went back and sat on the couch and felt really drowsy. This time I sat on a nice leather couch. I am not into leather furniture. But this one was very comfy and had two cup holders. I sat there wondering why there were two cup holders? Then I thought. One for beer and the other one for more beer. This is Homer Simpson’s couch! Aaaah! It needed a holder for candy! It was missing that for sure!

So now I am munching on some chocolate and waiting for 2006 to end. Everyone is afraid of 2007. My mom is like any year with 7 in it was usually a bad year politically and war like. I was like whatever. Every year is like that. Has nothing to do with Gregorian calendar. I am going with Islamic Calendar. It is 1427 hijry. (There is a 7! 8O) :lol: Than I thought. I was born 1400! I think.. :S lol or was it 1401? It is in my birth certificate and I have no idea where it is! :lmao: And the moon years are different. I think it is an extra year than Gregorian. Oh well!

Oh by the way. My mom drove me CRAZY today. Seriously. She kept nagging me and saying why you wearing that ugly green sweater. It’s big on you. I was like wtf. You want me to wear tight clothes. She is like yes. Stop buying clothes too big on you! Wear your real size! I was like wtf. My mom is telling me this! I just didn’t want to argue and just took it off and threw it in her room. Then I felt bad and just threw it in the hamper. She makes me so mad.. then she is like… Why don’t you clean the kitchen. I was like it’s clean! She is like clean your dish… you just cooked and ate. I was like aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. NO! And I went upstairs. She doesn’t ask nicely! She says it like a military command! Than now she went to visit our stupid neighbours and she is like. MONA.. clean the kitchen and make sure the house is clean! I was like YOU vacuumed this morning and everything is spotless and clean. She is like the kitchen is messed up. Everyone just ate so clean. I WAS LIKE WTF! I just ignored her command and now I am up here typing away cause I don’t care! I don’t care! I don’t care……………………… my dad said: “She is bossy. We know that.” I was like you don’t say!

Blaaaah!!

Angry, Whatever!

Well.. today is Eid el Adha. It’s celebrated after the 10 day pilgrimage around Mecca. It’s a quieter holiday I believe. But in this part of the world, it is eid and time to celebrate. Eid this year came in a perfect time. Holiday time and weekend! It’s nice. My mom made cookies (ma3mool and ka3k).. Some with dates and pistachios and walnuts. It’s all good.

Other than that.. I am hoping it is a quiet day.

I already got made fun of in the past 10 minutes. Go figure. I think I will just stay in my room for today. Watch movies and enjoy quiet time. I need quiet time! Alone time!

I am cursed. I can only go to the control panel but I cannot view the main page of my site. I have been trying to all day. With talking to tech support and what not. I swear. It’s like the website is jinksed. I am pretty calm and I really didn’t care too much if my site is down or not. But the whole day? Now that’s too much. I am loosing money from Google adsense here.. I mean I am loosing fans.. I mean I am loosing spam.. I mean I am loosing loyal commentators.. So hmm.. it’s because I am on holidays and I am bored out of my mind. I have the blog as an entertainment and place to rant.. I have to rant. Today is a perfect day to rant. My site has been down! Aahh.. Should I switch hosting? Naah. I am too lazy.. and I like the features of my hosting plan.. but I want my site back! Why doesn’t my main page load? I am getting people emailing me and popping messages on msn saying where is your blog? Hell if I know.. Disappeared to the internet black hole. Who cares really. But you got to admit.. I had a blast with the tech support. I saved one conversation (live chat)..

This short conversation took 00:11:59 minutes!

So 12 minutes of my time is not so bad. I had a previous one that lasted an hour of me waiting with no results… but this one is funny..
