Highlights

Hello...

I've been writing many posts and keeping them in the draft.. I do not feel like talking about things happening around.

This post is dedicated to the recent highlights of my life. I have graduated in 2011 and I feel like it has been ages since then. However, during the almost three years I learned many things and met scores of people. I can say that I only gained two "great" friends. Thanks God, I consider this a marvelous addition to my life because you know what Mark Twain said about true friendship: "Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life."

Talking about books, I decided this year to read more books and somehow I committed to the plan, despite the fact that I am one-book behind.. I have read: And the Mountains Echoed, سأخون وطني, and The Diary of A Young Girl.  The three books are amazing and different from many books that I have read in the past. I will write a review about the three books in separate posts [Inshallah], especially the Diary of A Young Girl. I cannot describe how much this book meant to me. I wish I can forget every letter, every paragraph I read in it, so that I can reread it again and sense that feeling again and again. It is an amazing book and it deeply affected me. For the next nine months, I have an interesting list and I am really enthusiastic about.. 

I had some plans that were not achieved this year, but this will not deter me from going on. This time I am determined and focused. I will overcome last year's "disappointments" and will do things differently. I have been seriously thinking about quitting my job, but I am reconsidering the decision because I cannot stay at home I love going outside. I am out of luck now; I had not find anything that fits my qualification and experience yet. Oh, I am also planning to sell my car and buy another one. Hope I will be doing this soon, but it is really hard because my brothers are not here and no one is helping me in this regard. I think, if I sell my car, I will go for Toyota Prius or Toyota Corolla. People are recommending Toyota Prius. We will see; wish me luck in this hard mission. 

My brother's wedding is planned, Inshallah, in October so we will start looking for a wedding halls because he is Jeddah. I have trillion of ideas for my dress and I started looking for a unique hairstyle. I am longing to a party for a close relative. Inshallah we will have a blast :)


Oh, I have to go now. But I still have tonnes of ideas and things to talk about.
