Assalamu Alaikum,
Yes, I know I jacked/swindled/pilfered my title. But, do I care? I think not. Hehe.
Anyhow, things have finally begun to stabilize for me, with sleep, school, cooking, cleaning and everything having a little more balance. Its much harder to go to school while you have your own place. I can only imagine what Fall Semester will be like; with a full load.
Well, yesterday was an awesome day. Actually part of it. First, my test...which I did ok on. I was hoping for something higher, but Alhamdulillah. Then, I hung out with Golu and Malu. Afterwards my mom and I went to WalMart on Fairmont, where the service was crappy, and I am never going back again. After all of this, J calls and says he's still at work. "GREAT." I thought to myself.
So, I finally get home, tired, hungry, sleepy, and in urgent need of a bathroom. I opened the door and saw a shadow, which made my need for a bathroom even more urgent; I would have thought it was Alakapoochie, but it was WAY bigger. Before I had a chance to scream, I saw the creature's shirt. It was one I had bought at Express a few months back, and so I instantly recognized it. He had the look of a cat that's been caught in the act, doing something naughty. Then, I saw the coffee table. All the candles had been lit, and there were approximately 5 luminous, red roses in a vase. I looked around and found more vases with even more roses, and more lit candles. J then handed me a card he'd been working on, and I read it. Inside was a small map of our bedroom, complete with some of the unpleasantries that unfortunately inhabit it. I looked at the map, followed the directions, and lifted up his pillows. Underneath was a box......from ZALES!!!! Inside was another...BOX(velvety) FROM ZALES!!! Inside the second box was the diamond necklace I'd been wanting for quite some time, and had been talking about just a week earlier. I love my new necklace, and I am so grateful and thankful for it. I'm also not going to show certain unoriginal people, due to the fact that they will indefinitely want the same one, as they've proven thus far with many of my other belongings.
Anyways, I have to attend a meeting in about 30 minutes, at Main Center. That should be interesting enough.
I gotta run now.
Peace, Walaikum Assalam

Chupakabra.
Assalamu Alaikum.
I'm sitting here at my dining table, diligently working on my accounting homework. :)
Heh. JK. But, then again, its not good to be overly zealous in such things, because that would make me a NERD.
Anyhow, school is interesting enough. Actually, its not. Its extremely boring, and I try my best to leave as soon as possible everyday. We get a boatload of homework everyday, which is understandable, since its a "hybrid" course.
This weekend was interesting. Actually, the whole week was. Not necessarily in a good way, but interesting all the same. J had training in ___Land, but this time I decided I would stay home, and not in a hotel room. I think it was a smart choice, because this time, they weren't even allowed to leave for lunch. Tuesday, was the pool party. Me, Hina, Bapee, and Nora went. Twanimal and the brat were also there. It was pretty fun, we all just talked and chilled. Although there was an incident that angered me greatly, and because of which I'm writing up an official complaint to CY.
The rest of the week went by with J coming home quite late because after training, he'd still have work. Me n Nora went to the mall on Thursday. That was fun, but I had an extreme stomach ache.
Friday, J got off early (I know, its surprising!!) so we chilled at my rentz' with my parents and OB. I made brownies, and all 3 of us talked about "the good ole days" and video games from back then and just random stuff. Afterwards, me and J headed to AlMaghrib. It was "Open Night" even though no one really knew about it, so we wanted to see if we liked the class or not. It was alright, but we were in need of an Islamic boost or whatever, so we decided to return the next day also. Both me and J are paying attention and taking notes this time around; not like LOG...although on Saturday, we went on a "date" during class. It was lots of fun, and we just talked and stuff. :)
So, next week, its back to AlMaghrib, and then on Monday is my exam for Accounting II. Hai. I'm aiming for an A. In sha'Allah, I'll get it, because J and I have a deal.
Well, I have to go finish cooking dinner now, so I'll be heading out.
Walaikum Assalam.
Peace out.

hmmmmmmmm.
how odd. i posted this like 2 weeks ago, but for some reason it no longer shows up on my page. Innnnnteresting. Good thing I had it saved in my "drafts."
Assalamu Alaikum,
Well, it's Friday, and I'm at the library with Nora. I should get used to it, since I'm going back to school...starting Thursday. Siiiiigh.
Anyhow, here's for my recount of the past few weeks. Well, 2 weekends ago... Friday was one of my friends' wedding. J didn't want to go, so I went with my mom, who's husband also couldn't go. Although the wedding itself wasn't exactly entertaining, I had fun. I hung out with Lina, Affaf, their mom, and my mom. We took billions of pics, and all took turns sitting in the little contraption they used to carry in the bride. And, then, Riham came, and we all decided to get in there together. It was all hot, but the made me lie on top "cuz ur the skinny one!!" Twas fun, though. On Saturday, we hung out with the Baigs. We chilled and made a "family tree." <-- I think that was last week. Can't remember... Sunday, we had dinner at the Olabi's. It was good. Fasuliyah. Then, me, J, Omar, n Nora went bowling. We all left on a sour note because of the rotten lady working there. The next weekend, we had a World Cup party at the Baigs.' I went decked out in my Brasil attire and was prepared to show my ultimate loyalty; then they lost and I quickly switched over. The next day we went to the Olabi's for dinner again. Afterwards, we all just talked and stuff. Then, me, J, Nora, Omar, and the parents all went bowling. In the end, only us kids bowled, and they watched...except when my mom-in-law bowled for Omar a few times. This week was July 4. Which means its been exactly one year since mine and J's engagement day. Only 2 more months till our first anniversary, in sha'Allah. Sometimes, it feels like its already been 10 years, and other times, it feels like we recently met. Either way, it was a cool day, because J had no work:). We went to the Galleria at around 2. It was a lotta fun, and I got a bunch of new clothes. Afterwards, we were invited to my rentz' house, for what was supposed to have been a BBQ, but the weather did not permit, so turned out to be dinner. We had Nihari, which was waaaaaay better anyways. Then, more World Cup, and then we had banana splits. Yummy. Afterwards, me and J headed to the in-laws, to light fireworks with the 2 little ones. Instead, J's buddy came over, and me and Omar just played SuperSmash (which Im waaay better at (I beat him.)) And then, me and my mom-in-law went ebaying. Which reminds me. Bapee bought me the cutest little gift off ebay. Its a light green leather case for my iPod Nano. Tis cute.
Today, all the girls are going to see Pirates II. And, tomorrow, more bowling, but this time with the Baigs. Its gonna be Couple's Night, and we're going to cream them. HEh.
On a side note, for the past week, I've been so friggin' pissed at certain people who like to talk lotsa crap, and are projectors. Lameness. They should get a life.
Well, we're heading out now, so cyaaaa.
Walaikum Assalam.
Peace out.
