Thursday to Saturday

Hello my babies.. Just wanted to let you know that I'll be gone for a couple of days. Will post by Sunday. Later my loves ;*

Randomlicious

- Never in my life did I see men more beautiful than the men on Italy's football team. I'm not interested in football, never have, never will and no I will not act as if i'm interested just to impress guys (a lot of girls do that btw) What I will do however, is confess that the only games I ever watched, were those that had Italy in them.

- I'm craving: Chocolate Cinnabons, 99 Falafel and fries ketchup and mayo, Pizza Hut margherita with extra corn, Salt Popcorn and Diet coke, Chocolate Cake (my aunt did it once, been craving it ever since), fresh strawberries with sugar and cream, Kushari, Fries from Burger King, Mozzerella sticks.. HUNGRY!!

- I want a good read. Care to recommend any books?

- Do you know the feeling of laughing sooo much that your tummy hurts and you feel that you're going to throw up? Good feeling, no? I had that yesterday while driving with my friend. I was gonna die lol literally I was laughing so much that my eye teared up so I couldn't see the cars around me. Ahh good drive! I blasted the music and we drove off to 6ireej shalaihat, no one around us cared!

- What are you doing with your time lately? If you have the time, if you have a couple of hours a week to spare, be productive and try to volunteer in the Kuwait Down Syndrome Center, Kuwait Handicapped Society, Abeer 2, Etc. We have plenty of places in this country that need volunteers to help. I'm not forcing you, I'm just suggesting. Give it a shot, you'll feel good about yourself, trust me ;)

Road Harassment

My apologies for not being a dedicated blogger, but you see I just fixed my laptop and now it crashed on me again, so I'm posting via my sister's laptop which, might I add, is a complete shocker to get her away from her laptop, so let's thank her. Thank you Beauty ;*

I just have one question, what's wrong with men on the road? I speak for all the ladies out there when I say while driving, everything I do, every move I make, doesn't make it a sign for YOU to follow me. I can't blast the music in my car because guys will take as a sign to follow me and I for one love listening to music when it's on full volume, that's how I like it, so stop ruining it for me. Oh and why is it when I drive around, I look at the view around me, guys assume that I'm looking for them. Just because I'm a girl, I'm supposed to sit and look straight ahead without turning right or left? Why is it when I speed up while driving, guys think it's a sign for them to follow me, it's NOT, I'm just in a hurry! Why is it when me and my friend are talking and laughing, guys assume that it's us calling out for them, it's NOT!!

My conclusion is this: Ladies, if you want to reach your destination while driving without being harassed or followed, you are required to sit tight while looking straight ahead and don't you dare turn right or left, don't even tilt your head. You are to drive around without listening to music. You are to speed at a maximum rate of 80 km.

P.S I know that there are girls who actually do that to attract attention from men on the road, but I'm speaking for the girls who are the complete opposite of those.

Blogger's Block

My fingers are touching each and every letter in this keyboard but they're not actually pressing them. Basically, I'm experiencing what people call "Blogger's Block" where I have nothing to talk about, nothing to post about. Why? Hmm maybe because my life is pretty boring since the past few weeks, so this is your opportunity fellow bloggers and bloggerettes to suggest what my next post is going to be about cause seriously madri shaktib seriously madri what's wrong with me.

Be creative, what do you want tomorrow's post to be about?

Love Locked Down

There's this trend that is taking over the blog-o-sphere (I hate that word), il mohem, i'm sure that you girls are more aware of this trend. What it is i'm talking about? Latsawoon nafskom matadroon.. I'm talking about blogs that mainly write short love stories. Well, I'm Ruby Woo and I'm addicted to love blogs!

** I was having this conversation the other day with a friend..
Me: Ambay Bree you have to read them, they're so addictive ib daraja mo 6abee3iya. I'm using them as my bedtime story cuz chithe I have pleasant dreams.
Bree: Ana Ashoofha tafaha o mala da3i. If you want a bedtime story just buy a good book.
Me: What book? I want a love story
Bree: Ee just buy a book that's about a love story
Me: What? Mabi agra kitab 3an an english love story abi qisat 7ub kwaitiya cuz ikteshaft ina il ajanib wayid lovey dovey thaqeeleen 6eena shway o ana abi touch kwaiti.
Bree: Ma3andich salfa

Anywho, I'll leave you with my list of love blogs:
* Chicken Soup For The Kuwaiti Soul: I was happy with our arrangement ina you post everyday, bas ya inich itaghalain aw inas nthaloch! Anyway, she is a very talented writer mashalla and this story is to die for, I know for sure that it's a girl's ultimate fantasy to fall in love bil shalaih.
* All Things Zoe: Someone is taking their time in posting. Lat3algeena, we need to know what's gonna happen. Hehe after reading this story, I was begging myself for a stalker. Not the psycho ones, but the subtle ones.
* Sham3at Al Jillas: Wayid it6awleen bas it's worth it in the end. Her story revolves around a girl during her engagement. An innocent love story and not to mention a talented writer as well!
* Liive Your Liife: Also new, her stories are fun, fresh, original. La' ya3ni shlon ilkishat ma3aha ina badilaw sayara, I have no idea!
* Revealed Secrets: Bader has issues, maku isteqrar nafsi wala 3a6ifi? Your posts keep getting shorter and shorter so i'm expecting the next one to be a6wal mini. Bas it's a good thing that you post regularly!

and last but definately not least..

** Love Struck Flana: 7AYOOHA! She just wrapped part 20 'the finale' and I loved every word of that story. Let's just hope a second story is just around the corner!
*** and the one who started this all, Glitter! So let's give her a warm applause for opening the door to other writers with suppressed talent!

Run The Show

Blogging is so high maintenence. I always imagined that I'll open up this blog and post whenever I feel like posting. Well, it turned out that no it's not that simple. At first, I used to post about anything, about my life, about people around me, etc... However, about a week ago, this girl came up to me and asked, "Are you Ruby Woo?" I was caught off guard by her question and asked her politely to keep it to herself and not tell anyone. I trust her for not telling anyone, but I don't trust others. If she figured out who I am, then what makes it positive that others won't? Plus, I'm sure that wayid 3rifaw mino ana bas I don't blame others for being nosy and trying to unravel other bloggers identities, but I blame myself for putting myself out there 100%. So I decided to tone it down a bit. I deleted all my previous personal posts. All posts that were deemed to personal were deleted. So from now on, I don't care anymore if people know me because there's nothing to worry about, nothing to hide..
