"Il7alal 3omra Ma Ythe3"

So last week I went to Virgin and bought magazines, a few more plain notebooks (madri laish) and ANOTHER 2009 planner. I swear I think I'm going to be the best planned person in 2009. Anyways, while at the cashier the saleslady struggled with the change, she had to return 190fils and I don't think she had enough. I wasn't paying attention and was looking around when she finally just gave up and gave me 200fils. I took it without thinking & left.

As soon as I got to my car, I started to think, why did i take the extra 10fils? Why didn't I tell her khalas keep the change? Why didnt I give her 10fils from my own change and then we would be even? I started obsessing about that 10fils clanging around in the coin compartment of my wallet.
10fils. Not mine. 10fils. Not mine. 10 fils. Not mine. 10 fils. Not mine. 10 fils.
What if the lady has to pay the 10fils out of her own pocket? By then i realised it would be really silly to go back and return the 10fils the cashier had given me out of her own will. But that 10fils kept gnawing at the back of my brain all week.

Today, 7days later, I went back to Virgin cuz I didn't like one of the notebooks I bought and wanted to exchange it for something else. When I finally chose something I went to pay for the difference and it turned out to be 890fils. So naturally I handed the cashier (a different one this time) a 1KD note. He handed me 100fils in return and as I was putting it into my wallet he told me:
"Badik itsam7eni ib 10fils lena ma3endi bil cash"
I looked at him stunned. I could tell that for a moment he was thinking to himself, whats up with this girl, is she going to cause a scene over 10fils?! I realised this and started giggling to myself and decided to explain.
"La 6ab3an 3adi, bs lama yait akhir mara ham ma kan 3indkom kharda o 3a6aitoni 10flos zyada, il7en floskom radatlikom"
"3n jad? Ya sub7an Allah!"

I couldn't stop smiling.
Ilflos radat 7ag a97abha!
NOW I CAN PUT MY HEAD ON MY PILLOW WITH A CLEAR CONCIENCE!
Nyeti 9afya wela shinoooooooooooo?
;>

Anyways check out this wooden Quran being sold at Virgin.
7ilo mo?
These are the 2 books I got. Twilight because over a handful of bloggers have posted about this book, so why not? And the other one cuz I its been so long since I read something girly and pointless.
This is the planner i got, I had one similar to this for 2007 and I couldnt find a similar one for 2008. I need something big enough to show all the days of the months but small enough to carry around. Its perfect......but let me show what really was perfect. I found this:
It's a day planner with beautiful art on every page and excerpts from all of Coelho's books. I though it would be a shame to buy it since its the kind of diary you should start using from the first day of the year. So if anyone finds the 2009 edition PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!
Don't you hate celebrities? They even look good when you take a photo of their photo! Anyway, the whole point of this picture is to show off my new Essie Aruba Blue nail polish. Its MY new black! 7abaitooooo?
And this is an example of how gubisa I am.
Kint waaaaayid far7ana ib nafsi o ib nafnofi *ilyded* labsita 7g gergai3an. Its purple its flowy and wooshy, and everyone was telling me what a beautiful shade of purple it was. I go home, I take off the matching blouse I was wearing on top to see this:
3atham Allah ajri ;/
It wasn't even tight, so why?! I took it to the tailor and he told me he would have to undue the whole dress to fix it. Oh well.

P.S. I replied to ALL ur comments on previous posts! Yay for me ;>

Haha! I obsess like that sometimes. As for the dress, I love the color. That's a great shade of purple :D I actually have the girly book but I haven't read it. Let us know how Twilight is! I've heard so much about it I can't help but think it's overrated now.

Eostre said...

It's pretty cool about the money, and it's cooler that you cared. (You'd be surprised at the number of people who just don't give a damn. Myself, I'd rather be shorted than short someone.)

I think Virgin is getting more depressing everyday when it comes to books. That said, they have great merchandise including Doctor Who badges/buttons, woot!

Pretty nail polish, but I don't think I'm giving up black anytime soon.

Kay said...

The twilight is HORRIBLE. An insult to real readers. Its a four part series. I only read the first and last novels. Skipped book 2 and 3 (read wikipedia's entery on them and saved myself the misery). I just had to know if Edward and bella got married and if he turns her into a vampire. But since the movie is coming out soon, you should read the book and judge for yourself. A7laa shy when the vamps sparkle. Seriously just plain bad writing. (can you tell i feel very very strongly about this?)

Yara said...

sib7an allah :) 3ad i got the zara planner u wrote about a while back... i got it in pink for 2009.. but now i want the planner u got from virgin! :) looks great and perfct..

tell us about the books i LOVE books bs i hate reading something horrible and forcing myself to finish it thinking it might get better

Anonymous said...

oh com on u read the first and the last and skipped the 2 ,3 .. isnt that a little unfair from u to judge ,,ok i admit i didnt like the last one but still it is a nice vampish love story ..i recommend The Host by tha same author

pinkest pout said...

awwh mashallah sb7an allah , love when things like that happen <3

Kay said...

Its totally fair actually to have skipped book 2 and 3. Not only is the writing awful, story is unimpressive, characters are flat, simple, and worthless and the theme is beyond ridiculous. In the first book, the first 300 pages only describes the sexual tension between bella and edward and the last few chapters an actual plot and story begins to unfold -however forced. Bella is anti-feminist, welling to risk her life to be with a vampire? and live her life accordingly. For a series directed to young teens its just sending out all the wrong messages, abortion in book 4, marriage at a young age screw education, lying to parents and getting away with it with no consequences. oh oh and they sparkleeeeee!

Charmbracelet said...
