Holding On To What's Left



 I was going through my phones notes and I found something I wrote that i'm going to post. Sometime's when when i'm somewhere surrounded by something I don't want to forget, experiencing something that feels surreal I write down my thoughts just so I can relive the moment afterwards. Not long ago, this was what i'd wake up to:



Sitting, staring out the window. Watching the busy bustle of people that always seem to be in a hurry. As though they're all rushing to be somewhere and are late. They look so small, the size of tiny fire ants running around. Everyone absorbed in their own little world. Perhaps we don't really live in one world. Maybe we each live in our own worlds created by our thoughts and feelings. Starring as the main characters in our own stories. We all carry on through life intoxicated by our memories and feelings. As if our thoughts are a reflection to the lives we live. It's easy to feel like we're the only one's with problems, feelings, and thoughts but sometime's I can't help but wonder what's going on with others.

Nicki Minaj Sings Super Bass With Sophia Grace

Saw this on The Ellen Show and thought it was the cutest thing ever :D I love their excitement. She kind of reminds me of my little sister she prances around the house in a tutu.

What Is Art?

What is art? We see things in different mediums such as paintings, fashion, photography, modeling, etc that are labeled as art. When does something become a work of art? Sometime's we see unusual inanimate objects, or things from our daily life on display. If someone plopped down a basket of fruit in front of you and called it art, would you agree? I wouldn't, i'd just eat it. So my lovely readers, when do you decide something is art, Is it just something that's appealing to the eye? If it is then what makes it appealing to you?  I'd love to read all your opinions about this.

Eden Salon And Spa

This post is long overdue! I recently discovered my new favorite salon in Kuwait, haven't been able to go in a while thanks to uni. I heard about Eden by word of mouth but never went thinking people were exaggerating. I'm going to flat out say this... they weren't! I loved it, everything from the services they offered to their friendly staff. The first time I went I started wandering around checking out everything just to see what the place was like.  Ended up getting the perfect manicure while watching The House Bunny which was just plain fun. I just had to share with you guys, i'll leave you all with pictures:


The nail polish/mani place <3


(The bathroom, i'm picky when it comes to bathrooms lol! ) 












Feather extensions: My sisters both wanted to get feather extensions so I took some pictures of how it's done. While picking out the feathers my mom and I began chatting with the lovely Laurie who turned out to be the salon owner.  She told us about the extensions and how Edens offer things you can't normally find in Kuwait like the Pure Vida bracelets 'awal bawal'. They also offer consultation on their services which I thought was awesome because you can go in and ask what hair cut suits your face and etc.

Warning: This Post Contains Highly Offensive Material

The cuteness in this is just hazardous! I started squeeling like a boiling tea pot when I saw this. They're soooo freaking cute! :D 
Pictures of baby pandas in a lab tweeted by my lovely friends xMaryooma.
I don't easily find things cute so I just had to post this. lol seriously not even new born babies. The last time I saw one went along the lines of this:
Mom: Your cousin bil mustashfa walda imshay inroo7 sti8baalha.
We go.
Everyone says their hellos.
Cousin who just gave birth holds up her son: Shrayich ib wildi?
I stare.
Her: Mayshawig?
Me: La2.
Her: :O
Me: He's red and wrinkly shiyshawig fee?

So to sum it all up, I wish new born babies were as cute as new born pandas :D

If I Die Young- The Band Perry

Heard this and it was love. If I didn't have to weigh down the aspects of religion, and what really happens when a person dies then this is how i'd like to go. God that was scary and a bit freaky. Ignore that and enjoy the song! The lyrics are beautifully written :D

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors
Oh, and life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even gray, but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the loving of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand

There's a boy here in town, says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time

So put on your best, boys, and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done

A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing
Funny, when you're dead how people start listening

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them, oh

The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
So put on your best, boys
And I'll wear my pearls
