Why Do We Hate Saturdays?

Posted on April 6, 2013 by swera

I’ve always hated Saturdays, you know why? Because Sunday will follow, that means, a new working day. Waking up earl in the morning feeling the weekend went so fast & you didn’t get enough sleep. But that’s Sunday, so why hate Saturday? Don’t ruin the day because the weekend is about to end. I used to do that & just now I came to realize that I used to waste a whole day because of a day that haven’t arrived yet.

As I’m getting myself in the mood of getting back to work (September, I know too early). I’m starting to realize the wrong things that I used to do which took my energy & power from me. We as working human beings (hypothetically) need to enjoy every hour of our off days because we deserve it. We deserve happiness, joy, having fun, relaxing, reading a book, having breakfast outside, whatever makes your soul happy.

For all of you ladies & gents who are feeling down because the weekend is about to end, it hasn’t yet! Be active & enjoy the day before you snuggle in your bed.

Happy Belated Saturday <3

My Previous Work-Media Box (The Avenues Magazine)

Posted on January 18, 2012 by swera

Well, everybody by now knows that there’s a magazine for The Avenues Mall which has just been published (Issue 1). Remember the work that I left & I was in love with? Well, i was working on this exact magazine at Media Box Publishing Company. I left for reasons I will not mention respecting the people I worked with.

Now, the magazine is out & it has been sent to some certain bloggers! To be honest, I dunno who’s responsible for the distributions. If it was The Avenues they can’t be blamed but if it’s Media Box then WTH? Why haven;t I received a copy after this hard work on issue 1?

Not sending me a copy or even telling me it’s out there?! Why?

Healthy Food @ Work?

Posted on December 1, 2011 by swera

Many of us work 8 hrs per day 5 days per week. So am I, I work from 9 til 5 everyday & I get really really hungry sometimes. I munch on whatever is available down the street & trust me it’s not health at all. We have a supermarket that is filled with alot of un healthy food. Cafes & many many restaurants. It’s Salem Almubarak Street after all.

I googled a little bit about some healthy snacks that can be eaten at work & decided to have them at work. I’m trying to lose weight in a healthy way.

Starting on Sunday nshallah

What I’ve Been Doing Lately!

Posted on September 27, 2011 by swera

Who ever said staying home is amazing he/she was hallucinating. I guess I was! Even when you’re being paid for it, it SUCKS! I might be enjoying it but i’m bored & my life seems the same everyday. I’m starting something new, somehow like business but it will take time. So all i’m doing now is experimenting on food & trying new things! I guess by the end of next month I wont be able to get out of the door.

& Oh yeah, staying home makes you extra LAZY! Period.

How Rude Can You Be?

Posted on February 22, 2011 by swera

We’re talking here at work! How Rude Can You Be?! For me, i can be really calm and patient with rude people but sometimes I just snap! Depends on my mood and my mind (if it’s occupied with thoughts or not)!

At work, i stay in my place! I’m very peaceful and i dont criticize or go to other’s departments and say bad things about the work they do! NEVER! and i expect the same in return! Because only my direct supervisor/boss/manager can judge! they’re the only ones who are allowed to JUDGE me either in a good or bad way! But a stupid @$$ from sales comes and shit about my work?! Oh Boy! well actually he didnt shit but he was about to . . . here’s the conversation:

N: Hey welcome back.

Swera: Thank You (i already don’t like him)

N: Why did you order from Mont Blanc (VIP Gifts), It’s an Israeli brand!

Swera: So? everything is Israeli.

N: Yeah but still, why don’t you support other brands? This one is an Israeli brand (as if i didn’t hear the 1st time he said it)

Swera: *boiling* WHO CARES? (sharp tone)

N: we care . . .

Swera: Why do you care? it’s not for YOU!!! (sharp and loud tone)

N: (shuts his mouth and turns around heading back to his department)!

Seriously? Why do people interfere with things that are non of their business?! WHY? That response, for me, was somehow more than polite for that guy! he deserves more! and i was about to say extra offensive words but i kept myself calm and just ended the conversation with that!

Now, to the subject of Israeli n Not-Israeli! To be honest:

1- I don’t care about these things! this is business & the thing he’s talking about is related to religion and politics! which has nothing to do with buying VIP gifts or whatever!

2- I didn’t choose them, nor order them!

3- Almost every little thing in this world is somehow related to Israel! so r we supposed to check every stupid brand out there or product before we buy it? for me i dont think so . . . if u think the opposite and you ACTUALLY do it, then i bow to you.

VACATION ^_^

Posted on January 20, 2011 by swera

Aaaaahhhh Finally my last day at work has come! I don’t know how this day will pass by but I want it to end so I can really relax and enjoy my time! I haven’t taken a proper vacation for 2 years, since 2009 and I’ve been working! Only took 5days back in June when I went to Dubai and that was it! Now it’s time to chill, relax, watch movies, tv shows, travel, sleep, eat, read more books, have breakfasts outside in this lovely weather and just enjoy my Me-Time being useless!

Best thing in this life is being useless! I mean what with all this career-crap haaaa? My youth has been misused and abused for 5 years now everyday for more than 8hrs (wallah 7ram :S) so to whoever put that thought in my head . . . well I can’t say anything coz it was my mom (allah yer7amech) but seriously! Women are supposed to stay at home, enjoy their beauty sleep, go to spas, be pampered, enjoy shopping, take care of their homes! Equality-shit! but on the other hand I do enjoy my SALARY and the happiness it gives me once it has been deposited and the depression it brings me once it’s butchered the next day!

The awesome news and rumors I’m getting is that there will be a very long holiday from 20th til 28th of Feb! I’m supposed to report back to work on the 20th, now if those rumors are true then I will be reporting back on the 1st of March! Hallelujah

YeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeW

Horror Night; Zajil Ghabqa

Posted on August 23, 2010 by swera

aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!! It was a veryyyy long daaay/niiiight filled with torture and pain :/ as i mentioned before that we arrived there at 2 pm in the afternoon (The Palms Beach Hotel)! We got a room for free, once we got inside the room, Chikapappi hugged the bed and went to another world (she also slept at my house from 12:30 til 1:45 pm) I myself watched an episode of Pretty Little Liars then i hugged the couch and slept a very light sleep but it was relaxing Then we walk up, polished our nails, went down to eat Futoor (previous post) and then we went to change for the big night!

We were in HIGH HEELS from 8 pm til 1 am! and we were standing all the time, literary ALL THE TIME!!! I can’t even feel my legs right now! Maybe I’m paralyzed :/!!! We event didnt eat til everyone was out and when they started to leave (some employees), they bugged me n I almost lost my temper (did) for wanting extra Gerge’an boxes!!! and one of them lied to my face and told me that u didnt give me! that **** i just exploded in his face and told him “don’t lie to me, im not stupid! if u want more just ask” lol Chikapappi started to laugh at my face but I wasn’t laughing at that time :S the I told her to deal with them because I couldnt take it anymore! I was really tired and pissed off!!! hhhhmmm!

Now I’m suffering from a severe headache and my legs r numb! I’ll leave u with sm pix;

I want this month to end really fast (astaghfer allah)

That was around 11 pm! my legs are swollen n puffy :S

then i switched to my Footzyrolls! They were VERY helpful! But look at my poor feet

Chika invading my dish and my shot That was our su7oor (light)

Zajil Gerge’an

Posted on August 10, 2010 by swera

I think today we’ve worked 12 hrs straight! After getting back home, Chikapappi joined me at my house around 5 p.m. to start the opening, cutting, wrapping and the bla bla bla of the whole preparation! We had a fixed budget of —– KD and we had to do smth nice and elegant for our company (not that we own it ) We got the candy, the boxes (200 pcs), the ribbons and the decoration last week, and today we started! We only finished 100 pcs in more than 3 hrs :/ and 100 more to go waaaaaa3 but I think we have accomplished smth! Now these boxes will be distributed to our employees on the night of the Ghabqa which will be held in the middle of Ramadan, I’ll leave you with the pix;
