  1. ^^ That gets me too...

     

    Also, when people call you asking for a number and they don't have a pen or paper ready. So as soon as you start giving the digits, they go... "bal i sug aan qalin soo qabsadee" and you're left holding the receiver, waiting for them for what seems like ages. :mad:


  2. Hey Shayma..

     

    I'd recommend Somaliplace.com & Somalichoice.com - they have a somali music centre where you can find albums (old & recent). The only thing is you have to register in order to enjoy music but it's worth the small hassle, blv me.

     

    Salaams.


  3. I just wanted to add another one of my fav songs to this collection smile.gif

     

    ONKOD

     

    Here are the lyrics... enjoy!

     

    onkod roobku madaayo

    ana taaha madaayo

    ana taa ma ilaawo

    jeceyl ood rogan maayo

    oon hilaac bi'inmaayo

    xeera weerar madaayo

    heleey aamusi maayo

    ergo geesi madiido

     

    ilaah tiisu ma oosho

    calaf leyskama oodo

    ubax dheyr maqarsoomo

    reyska leyskuma waayo

     

    ifkaa leysu turaayee

    iilka leysma gargaaro

    aboor leyskama daadshee

    nabsi heyga amaahan

    axdigii nadhexyiiliyo

    ha iloobin aqoontee

     

    asaageey usha toosan

    iyo ooda hagaagsan

    hayinkii afagaadee

    hilinkii afar deeqaay

    inantii la,ilwaadsan

    eey asluubi udheereyd

    sida aan u,adkeysan

    kuu eeganayaayee

     

    hadanaan mid iraahdo

    waa aqoonta haweenee

    ruuxa iiga danbeeyo

    halka ay kacaweyso

     

    uurkutaalada maada

    aramidiisa jaceylka

    anigu soow dhaxlimaayo

    nabsi heyga amaahan

    axdigii nadhexyiiliyo

    ha iloobin aqoontee

     

    sida oodda cilaaca

    hilinkeeda cadceeda

    amantaada libaaxa

    mala waanad ogeyne

    haya nuurkiyo maanka

    waadnahayga agtiisa

    sida aayad kutaalaan

    uumiyaha utusaayee

     

    hadii aanan ibliisku

    igakaa anbineynin

    inaad iituri weydo

    eegimaayo koleyee

     

    arin kuuma hanbeynine

    aaraartii haku deeqdo

    sina heyga adkeysan

    nabsi heyga amaahan

    axdigii nadhexyiiliyo

    ha iloobin aqoontee


  4. Lool - Nova...qarxis aad wadaa yaah. Look at Barwaaqo stuttering now... hehe.

     

    MsWord :eek: ...I always wondered if the schools in the states were like the ones we see on TV or the movies. Keep ur head up tho, U only got 2 months!

    Don't mean to rub it in ( smile.gif ) but I loved my high school experience. The first yr (Gr 9) was a total bore. I remember me and my girl were that the only Somali girls in the 9th grade and 2 other guys who came with us from Middle school. There were many Somalis in the higher grades, but we didn't really understand what the heck they talked about so we used to hang around with the students from our grade. Then came grade 10 where all the fun begun. Somalis started pouring in! There were almost 10 Somali girls in our grade. PE was the best - imagine about 6 Somali girls in one class...non stop sheeko runtii.

     

    School is fun when there are Somalis are around. There were fights (between somalis and other black student as usual, and between Somalis and Cadaan)..there were the hallway jokes... ;) There was one particular hallway we called the Doomsday Hall... the Somali guys ruled that hall. The girls (all girls) were scared to walk through that hall because there's about 20 guys leaning against the lockers and the minute you walk in.. they'd all stop talking and stare. Shoot, I'm glad I had brothers and cousins in that school :D


  5. Aaaahhhhh!! These are the stuff my nightmares are made of. AGH!!

    Hey Moti, (I have the feeling that reads hey fatso in hindi :D )

     

    I see you're back and haven't lost your anti-women talk. Inaad aqal gashay aan mooday (does this saying apply to women only horta?)...laakiin, I guess not. Welcome back icon_razz.gif


  6. Hanif, weird poll u got there.I thought u needed options in order to vote :confused: ..

     

    Anyways - the little black box is called a DSL modem isnt it? Yeah, that's what we have from Bell Sympatico (Hspeed). But this damn pc needs cleaning.... it's getting very slow...

     

    I can prolly clean it myself ...cant I? Any help would be appreciated.

     

    Tx.


  7. Checkers

     

    You mean La'aantooda Abaar waaye! ...soo mahaan? icon_razz.gif

     

    A gathering you say? Nah, there are some folks I wouldn't want to meet (actually it's just one so far) smile.gif I wouldn't mind having them pointed out to me so I can avoid them if I happen to run into them in the streets tho.

     

    B - Your loss EH icon_razz.gif


  8. Lol - too cute.

     

    One of my sisters couldn't say 'yaanyo' (tomato)when she was younger so she'd call it 'yaanyuur'...since she loved yaanyo, mar kastay waxay ku jirtay.."yaanyuur aan rabaa"...Maxaad ku faleey? .."Waan cunaa!". icon_razz.gif She also used to call timir (date) ..'shimbir'. She used to entertain us during afur time with her ..."hooyo bur iyo 'shimbir' i sii" :D

  10. Tam -

    I can't believe you're quitting on us already? :(

    I'm definitely going to miss your insighftul posts here in the Islamic section. But I'm glad to hear you'll be back to give us info on the happening Islamic events.

     

    And I'm also glad I got to know you before you retired from SOL. You're truly an awesome person smile.gif

     

    Insha Allah, this is not the last I'll see of you.

     

    Salaams.

    All eyes will be on me- the BRIDE! :D

     

    See ya soon Sofine ;)

     

    PS - Hope you and Nove got the niikis thing down pat by now. :D


  12. :D @ Darman. The secret is out now eh?

     

    -- Finds it amusing that the nomads are more concerned about you revealing your real name to us instead offering support and helping you (poor soul) overcome your deadly addiction icon_razz.gif

     

    Disappointed @ you all ...

     

    *shaking her head*


  13. I've been here for over 10 yrs too and I've only been to the CN tower for the first time last yr...I guess the damn structure aa naga hor imaaday since we see it every day eh? I gotta tell you tho, the elevator ride to the skypod was the best (even tho dhagahi inay dhub i noqdeen for a while)...I actually got the courage to peek through the glass while we were going up. But Wonderland...that is my place! We used to go almost every summer since the 6th grade. Now my sisters are persuading hooyo to buy the season pass - (i'm getting one too since i'm their designated driver) So I'll be seeing alot of that place again this summer. Bambina, hit me up if you need a seating partner for the cool rides ;) ...but I'll tell you now, I'm never going back on the mighty canadian mind buster coaster or the drop zone! redface.gif .. Other than those 2, I'm down for whatever icon_razz.gif

     

     

    Meenah, you know you're welcome back here anytime...laakiin, bring B along so we can give her a near heart attack too :D


  14. Good one Fey.

     

    I thought I'd be a 100% Somali, but I scored an 84% and that's because every Somai I meet isn't a relative of mine and having Xalwa in the house doesn't call for a celebration. icon_razz.gif


  15. Athena you read my mind.. icon_razz.gif I need to lock myself in the library for the next month too and quit roaming this place.

     

    Well - Allaha idiin sahlo whatever task you'll be undertaking.

     

    Salaams.


  16. Shaabela - I guess that's something. Where've you been these days tho? Missed your wacky sense of humour. And I still insist - you're not sane :D

     

    Sue - I used to think she was an odd character - now she's even weirder.. but in a good way this time. Can you say 'room air'... smile.gif

     

    OG_Girl - This girl is hilarious. She's been on my pal list for a while now and she never seems to remember my SOL name. We'd be chatting for a while then comes that question..'who are you again?' But she's not the only one suffering from short term memory loss (exem, exem,..Sue and Mrebo) icon_razz.gif

     

    More to come (I think...)

     

    Gotta run...
