Blah Blah, Funny

First and for most, I would like to thank everyone who participated in this blog event. It is a great way to find more interesting reads and interact with one another a bit more. I am so happy with the results thus far, and I noticed that so many people have written a post ahead of time and automatically published it at midnight of the 27th. So I am doing the same. So technically I have written this post long long time ago, and I am currently sleeping and dreaming of Hawaii!

So, I have a huge list of RSS feeds of all kinds of people’s writings. However, I got new favorites and old favorites. I couldn’t come up with only one. I like lots!

My favorites are:

Moey’s: he is quite a character. I love his blog for three reasons.

1. he is a graphics designer and damn good at it
2. he doesn’t give a crap about what he writes and who criticizes him
3. his satire and humour towards certain subjects is quite comical to read. I find it hilarious and I actually laugh out loud. (See how I spelled out lol!)

Diary of Asoom: this girl is too smart! Way smart that there is hope for the evolution of Arab girl’s mentalities. I love her blog so much that I actually enjoy reading her thoughts. I feel smarter when I read it and I feel someone else is writing the same things I was about to write. Asma gives me some of that writer’s smartness! This is my favorite post of hers about giggling girls which I couldn’t agree more and make me want to smack down every half brained female out there!

ChiKapaPPi: this girl can seriously make you want to get off your seat and shake your booty! lool This girl is awesome.. She writes about anything. I mean ANYTHING. Even the slippers she is wearing she would take a pic and make you laugh and wonder why she is posting about it! One day she is happy, the next pissed off and then suddenly she is happy. She is a roller coaster of dramatic comedy! I can’t wait for her 3 or 4 posts a day!

and last but not let’s forget..

ME! I hate and love my blog. Honestly, if I wasn’t writing this blog and just a visitor, I would be so attracted to the craziness and messed up thoughts of the writings. I would also hate it because of my stubbornness and my over honesty of my thoughts. What Arabic girl thinks that way? You guys want to know something? I NEVER EVER EVER RE-READ WHAT I HAVE WRITTEN ON MY BLOG! I just post and let people comment. Sometimes I reply, and other times I ignore because half the time I forget what I have written and I am too lazy to read it again. Symbolically, I characterize my self as a sloth. “Sloths move only when necessary and even then very slowly.” *coughing* Ehm ehm…

Honestly, I regret ever making a blog for the wrong reasons but I can’t get enough of it! I was also told that my site is purely a Dramatic Comedy that people cannot believe how moody, honest, and funny I am. I can’t help what I am. In the end, I like to bitch, complain, and entertain. You see, I can rhyme! Maybe I will start singing soon.. I got a kick ass ugly voice just like most singers out there!

Anyways.. I love everyone else’s blog as well. I read a lot like I said. My blog roll does not contain the only blogs I read. I got many others in my RSS feed reader as well.

Thanks again for participating. Until next year. Same time, same place, maybe new favorites!

Blah Blah, Funny, Sleepy Post

It seems to be the common trend now on the Internet.. Who has a blog? Do your employees have a blog? What are they hiding? What are they really thinking when they go to your office for a meeting about how messed up their final product is and can’t put two sentences together to save their life! Can you as a boss learn more about your employees’ daily lives and thoughts by reading their blog? I am writing about this because I browse a lot and read a LOT of blogs a day. I think I averaged it out that at least 90 minutes of my day is dedicated to blog reading, and I have a list of many. (I know I don’t comment on every blog, sorry guys, but I do read it!) I am one of those people who want to know how others think and how in reality we are really all similar to one another. So I read Dooce’s blog daily. (Not my ultimate favorite blog, so I am not ahead of the game.. that’s tomorrow! ) I love the daily pictures she posts, and I was reading the about me page, (which many of you avoid to read to know the blogger better.) So you daily obsessed bloggers know that she got fired from her job because of her blog a few years ago and started a big blogger controversy about how much freedom can a blogger really have?

So she wrote this interesting quote,

My advice to you is BE YE NOT SO STUPID. Never write about work on the internet unless your boss knows and sanctions the fact that YOU ARE WRITING ABOUT WORK ON THE INTERNET.

I thought it was interesting and actually true..

I think not telling your boss could be a problem in the future. (They will find out sooner or later.) However, what if you told your co-workers? If they know about your blog they can easily blackmail you. I think that is where the problems really start. How many people know about it and how much can you get in trouble for it?

On on a more positive note, a lot of companies encourage their employees to have a blog. Unfortunetly, I have seen many that are not personal but more of development and news about events and stuff the company is holding. It is still interesting to read an employee’s take on thing. It really is. We always read the top view of things, but never the bottom where it is a lot more interesting to read.

What I encourage others to do, even if you don’t have a blog is to start one. It is simple, easy, and free. If you spend time reading blogs, then writing your own is not that hard at all. (You spend numerous hours chatting on MSN!) I know most of you say, “I don’t have time.” “I don’t know what to talk about.” “My life is so boring, who wants to read it?”

You know what I say about that, GROW UP and do something productive with your time. Some people out there really could be interested in what you have to stay. It will also teach you a few writing skills for sure! And you won’t believe how many people I see in the library just sitting there reading other people’s blogs! It’s scary!

A blog reader’s question:

“But Mona, you are telling us it is ok, and you have a blog too. Does your boss know?”

YES! So leave me the hell alone and I like writing and bitching and complaining about my life! I am mentality disturbed suffering from Major Depression and use writing as a means to speak out! I have hard time talking. My boss knows I am completely crazy and a wacko, and no I don’t regret ever telling him about it! Right boss?

Case closed! Anyone else has a blog that I don’t know about and want me to become a reader? It has to be a real blog and not an artificial one that just steals news from other news sites and blogs. It is just boring and I really don’t like those.

PS.. I am like other people who read my blog; is scientifically classified as a person diagnosed with epicaricacy or Schadenfreude! (Yes, I know German!)

It means “pleasure taken from someone else’s misfortune.” loool

Yes I am evil.. muwahahaha.. Oh man.. I need a drink.. and sugar. A lot of SUGAR! It will calm me down a bit.. Pheww.. I got a little excited there.

Blah Blah, Funny, Random Thoughts, Whatever!

I came home today, and I ate my dinner.. I went to my room, and my dad came up stairs to my room with a somewhat angry face. I was like, holy crap, what the fuck didn’t I do now? So he comes in and says, “what happened to all the Baklava your brother brought back from Montreal?” I said, “aah.. aah.. hmm.”

He said, “did your mom hide all of it… again!! ”

I said, “well, probably, cause I was looking for it too yesterday and I couldn’t find any. Not even in the fridge.. ”

He said, “did your brother hide it then.. ah?”

I said, “I doubt it, I think he is looking for it too.”

He said, “fine. It must be your mother. Our family (our last name) is a lot nicer and NEVER hide candy like your mothers (my mom’s last name) family.”

I said, “ok.”

Why do husbands always blame the wife’s entire family name for candy?

I laughed hysterically after he left.

Few minutes later, he calls my brother.

My brother then comes back upstairs and says, “what.. am I supposed to go back to Montreal now and get more candy that cost a few bucks?”

I thought holy crap..

Where is the missing candy… maybe MOM knows or my brother is lying..

My dad will never learn.. he has type two diabetes and takes pills daily.. he will just never learn! He has a major sweet tooth.. worse than mine!

I bought chocolate after work.. I don’t care. I want my energy and my happiness!

Funny, They said what?

I am not a burger eater.. but lately all I have been eating is cheese burgers, and chicken burgers. Also onion rings.. yummm…. I donno why.. Maybe I am just craving the SANDWICH! This pic looks so good.. I am such a pig.. I just want a burger with onion rings.. lol
