Mommy

Oh boy...

It's been a little over a year since I last posted anything! and I didn't even post anything particular.
Being a mommy of two boys (Salem & Yousef) took over my life in a good tiring way.

It changed me to the point that i don't have time to look in the mirror, and if I do I regret it right away hehe.

 I am extremely happy with this change in my life and seeing my boys grow up is immensely satisfying, being a mommy is a bless and a gift.

Taking care of a husband and kids in addition to work and house chores took a toll on my peace of mind, some say i need to be patient those first few years and everything will fall into place eventually.

I look around and see mommies are taking control over their lives and i wonder whats wrong with me? sometimes i go far to thinking that i might have ADHD because i have nothing done in time and i tend to be chaotic all the time not to mention the temper! sigh
How did our mothers do it? I have no freakin idea!!

They say life was never easy like it is today yet i have no time nor energy to do what they did in their days.

I bet that we are prone to this day's fast lifestyle where we find ourselves running all day and not finishing anything yet we feel like we contributed in building the pyramids!

If you are a mommy and you are holding your life in your hand please don't hesitate to tell me how you do it.

Hi

Hi there, 

I can't believe i haven't posted anything since my honeymoon!!! am i that lazy? na i'm just overwhelmed and extremely busy with the new life thingy.
I am proud to announce to you all that i have a baby boy which is 10 months old and which i love so much it hurts, I named him Salem after his late grandfather, i know the name might not fit with his tiny head but someday it will.... hopefully.
Back to work and driving in Tripoli's crazy traffic each and everyday leaves no time for anything even a nap... i have very unattractive purple circles under my eyes which i wear proudly lol.
Anyhoo...  i just wanted to notify you that i am still alive and kicking and that i will try and find more time to start blogging again. 
soon inshallah 

Miss you

I know its been ages since my last post update. But i was so busy with my wedding and the preparations that i had no time to even check my mail!
Anyhow i will be back soon posting photos from Thailand where i am right now spending my honeymoon.
Stay tuned :)

Libya: Hello world!!

I don't think i can add anything to this photo. Overwhelming pride.
Libya is back!!
The lower photos represent the Libyan Olympic team in 1964!!

Libya Elects

Finally after more than 42years of dictatorship libya is breathing the first breezes of freedom and taking a bite of the fruit of their revolution.
Yesterday was a festival all over libya especially in Tripoli it was an all nighter in the streets happiness and joy and mostly pride.

Dear Egypt.... WTH!!

I guess all the world or at least the free world was shocked when yesterday the Egyptian Legal System granted Egypt's former president Hosni Mubarak a sentence to life of imprisonment and the two of his son's an acquittal  which led to an explosion of anger in the Egyptian streets  in most cities condemning the sentences that are not fair in any meanings.

Now all the voices who were criticizing the execution of Muaamar Ghaddafi by the hands of the Libyan Freedom Fighters should be shut up for good and for once. If we left this matter in the hands of the judical system or the Human Rights then we would have been witnessing the same disgrace.

One Egyptian citizen said : " At this moment we salute the revolution of the Libyans, it was truly a brave and real one".

A note to the world: THANK GOD we killed Ghaddafi instead of waiting for a fair trial.... simply because there is no such thing as fair trial for those "tyrants", do they really need witnesses or evident?!

and we DID it

Messy Bee

It's been a VERY long time since the last time I posted anything here.
To be honest work is to blame here, I've been working my butt off for 3 months now non stop no breaks whatsoever. and I really can do with one right now.
The problem is that I don't have a big vacation reserve if I might call it in my account, I have been working for a year and half now so all I have in my account is a month and nothing else.
And I have no idea when  my wedding is, so that's why I can't go on gambling with my precious vacation balance when I know I might need it dearly anytime soon.
So to cut the tension a bit I deactivated my Facebook account for a while, I know you might wonder what does Facebook have to do with any of this, I have been on Facebook for more than 4 years now and I literally live in it, Its the first thing I check in the morning when I arrive at my office I check from the phone when i'm not in my office (but still in the company) I check it once I get home.... keep checking it if I didn't go out, and after I get into bed and shut down my laptop... I use my mobile phone to CHECK!
And when I say check it means stay on it for not less than half an hour!
So this is creating a chaotic effect on my everyday life, my boss is pouring work on my head with tiny deadlines which in many cases lead to meltdowns, and then I get home exhausted and tired, I have no energy to do anything and if I HAVE to; i come back home semi-dead.
I hope this Non-Facebooking break will do me some good although i highly doubt it will make any difference since i'm switching to Blogger at the very moment.

Damn you Social Networks!!

Tripoli Nights Lit Up

No words no words at all can describe what Libyans felt today, over whelming waves of happiness and pride.
some photos of Tripoli this afternoon.... I'm speechless

My Lantern :)

 

Lanterns over the sky of Tripoli ♥

A Year After....

A year ago i would never have felt so proud as i feel today, Ghaddafi has sucked out of us all or any patriotic feeling we might have for our country. We always felt that Libya is Ghaddafi so we never felt that overwhelming feeling that we have today, today we pray and kneel down to kiss the Libyan soil as if it is pure gold.
Today we are proud as we have never been or ever will be, Libya is free and will be free forever.
We will never forget the price that has been paid, we will never forget our martyrs who put their lives in exchange of our freedom. we on't forget our wounded and our missing ones.
I can go on and on talking about our blessed revolution but the best things can never be said... in the heart they stay.
Alhamudlelah first and mostly and big thanks to all who supported us and prayed for my country.

Proud to be Libyan ♥
