  1. Uggs and a lot of thermal sweaters. It was a snow storm, did I tell you that a plane skidded off the runaway? It's sunny today though. I am loving the transition
  2. Where: My front yard When: January 31, 2008 Why: Taken to show my family my strength and durability (Get on my level ma is tidhi).
  3. Savior, ismavior. It doesn't matter to me, he is just a good looking talent who happens to be Muslim and Single. Mmmmm Lol Mac Drizzle was feeling himself. [i'm dipper in butter, I'll rob your brother, pimp the blood out your mother] yadadameen.
  4. 16.609. They start going faster when you get close.
  5. I absolutely love Lupe Fiasco; ever since Kick Push, my god, I tied my star to his fan wagon and I haven't let go yet. His content is amazing and beyond reproach however if you judge greatness by clever word play then he is not great but if you judge by content, he is up there with the rest of 'em. Side note: Go baby on his second album is addictive: "And you're my sure-fire, superstar, sure-shot, firecracker extravaganza, fantastic, super-size with extra cheese" I saw Common in concert as well as Mos Def and think those were the only two moments in my life were I honestly thought "love at first" sight exists. My God, they were just beautiful to me. Big L is another favorite of mine: Ebonics is a classic; I never get tried of that song. B.T.W Amir is extremely talented. I used to watch him on Def Poetry Jam back in the day and I recently watched his rap video but I doubt mainstream America will like it or relate to it. I like Weezy F. Baby too but I'm more into his mixtapes. The boy is Fyah! Twista too. Po Pimp, that is my throwback joint. I can't live in the west without bumpin' Mac Dreezy either [We coasting out here].
  6. By the way, generally speaking, most men aren't too fond about surprises unless its a surprise where he gets to ____________(U know...!)do his thang and in that case, its an exception. Whereas, women love surprises. You are generalizing and being presumptuous. Not all women love surprises and most men aren't h!rny roosters who have a one track mind. Mida kale, it's not a crime to have an opinion because they are shaped by attained knowledge no matter how limited. As long as you understand that your opinion may not apply. Anyway, I wouldn't want to be back with someone that walked out on me especially over something as ridiculous as a haircut. He is not stable. How to make your wife happy huh? Is it just me or does it come across as though the husband is entertaining a child? Distraction ku yidhi. Just out of curiosity, How much of our understanding of Islam or interpretation of it is influenced by cultural or rather patriarchal norms? For example, even though Allah is neither male nor female we refer to Allah as a He whereas were we to address Allah as an impersonal She, it would come of as sacrilegious?
  7. ^You are preaching to the choir. Men are simple creatures. The more I observe them, the more I think a personality is wasted on them.
  8. I doubt it but Allah knows best. However, I do believe he must've already been planning to leave. Her hair will grow back insha'allah and in two weeks she could safely dye it back to its original color. I wouldn't even waste tears on a jerk like that walee. Sh!t. I have been growing out and chopping off my hair since 2005. It's not that big of a deal and it has never garnered that kind of reaction.

    ^I have a complaint against you.
  11. Love is him All 6'3, braided, lanky length of him Brown eyes so deep they read me reading him the story of our love him His humility, at peace with the world satisfied with his place, more or less grounded he is. Strong like his passions Our love is revolutionary;challenging ethnic misunderstanding. They all stare but too engrossed in each other we never feel the accusations emitted. He is mine as I'm his. Nationality be damned. I love his skin tone. Nearer than mine to my homeland. He reminds me of everything new So dear to my sight he is. Beautiful with his lions mane. Brave is his nature, so open but secluded until I knock on his heart's door His voice reminds me of honey. Melodic and Patient. He is everything I wanted. In him I see possibilities I never thought could be realized. Horizons never glimpsed before; my dearly beloved I have come to love you more and more. Your my love and I'm yous; our unity only exists in parallel realities of our dreams. We are too different, too alike to ever be more than just friends.

    A Quickie

    I think I'm addicted to Olive oil.

    A Quickie

    3 eggs With the first two eggs you want to separate the yolk from the albumin (the white part). Discard the yolks and put the albumin in a bowl. The last egg goes in as it is (minus the shell of course) Add seasoning salt, favorite diced veggies, and shredded cheese. Mix well Use olive oil or non stick spray and cook until slightly golden. Toast some bread and put your favorite condiment on there. Viola. Chicken Teriyaki is another favorite of mine. Chop veggies and slice some chicken into cubes. Cook with olive oil and when the chicken is cooked add a Ter. sauce (Lawry's preferably with the pineapple blend), lemon/lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Hot sauce if you more adventurous. You can eat it with pasta or rice dishes. I like it with French bread (drizzled with Olive oil). Also, take some store bought salad, wash it, put it in a bowl. Take some olive oil, salt and lemon juice(add some French dressing if you like). Mix well and pour it over the salad. As one of my friends would say: it's bomb. B.T.W Your title is extremely misleading.
  14. I. Boy #1: Hey dude, let's go. What are you doing? Boy #2: I'm waiting to get in. Y'all just go without me Boy #1: No dude we came together, we leave together. Like f!ck!n Siamese twins. Boy #3: F!ckin' siamese twins? That is kinda gross dude. I don't know about that... II. Friend #1: What do you call a gay Ethiopian? You guys give up? a Fruitopian [Laughing] III. Friend #2: Hold up I'm getting a call from Somalia. [softly]Hello. OMG it's just Blockbuster. They tricked me. Dude, [turning to me]did you know that Blockbuster and Somalia had the same number? IV: Professor: Discussions are a lot like gardening. You first have to clear a space in order to plant...use a shovel.. T.A: A HO3 would be more appropriate ... Professor: Yeah, so pace yourselves folks. Now, let's have someone drag a HO3 through the garden. V: Friend #3: You gotta be the first fat person to vomit at food usually your species eat the food and what backward country are you from where you vomit in a plate? clearly not Somalia. My side note: I'm always fascinated by words and how they are used especially in conversations. I actually keep a quote book for my friends much to their annoyance but I think they secretly enjoy it.It's just my little quirk When I hear something out of place, I pause either to laugh or to jot it down. Is there anything you've ever heard that stood out to you?

    Marriage

    ^I'm serious. Why do you think I'm joking? We aren't together anymore; left him before we made it to the altar so to speak. Life is funny sometimes

    Marriage

    how did you propose? We were having a quite dinner to celebrate my high school graduation. All I remember was that he was talking when all of the sudden I interrupted him with a marriage proposal (it wasn't a question but more like a statement). He thought it was a joke but when he realized I was serious he accepted.
  17. War ileen balaayo! Brownie, you are right I'm not that lucky. I'm luckier. Congrats ina adeer and may Allah bless your marriage.

    LMAO. For the sake of fairness here are my answers: 1. Blue because it is calming; relaxed and just cool 2. A cheetah because it's extremely balanced. It's the fastest animal but it gets tired easily. (Whatever that means) 3. I'd be content. 4. I would be scared sh!tless B.T.W Brownie, brown=mother earth. In other words you are in touch with your feminine side

    Loooooooool@some of the replies. 1. It's your true color. In other words how others see you. 2. How the opposite sex views you. (Lool@Camel) 3. How you view sex. 4. How you view death. Kinda fun huh?

    ^ Dude, not a classic like in a romantic notion but just the depth of it. Besides, lynching has changed to economic strains that chock the life out of black souls. I'm just saying...it doesn't have to be directly relatable Umu: Mansha'allah.

    What is your favorite color and why? What is your favorite animal and why? How would you feel if you were given everything you ever wanted? and finally how would you feel if you were trapped in a room with no doors, no windows and no light? B.T.W Aren't Sam Cooke's A Change is Gonna' Come and Billie Holiday's Strange Fruit classics?
  22. F!ck him; somebody please shoot him. :mad: Glad that is off my chest! I can breath easier now. Well, I only unleash my temper on my siblings and cousins. However, I do have a habit of getting annoyed with people and when that happens...I either leave them alone or resort to sarcasm. Mida kale, I think the first time I have apologized to someone other than my mother was last year. Self-righteous little pr!ck ma is tidhi? Indeed
  23. Forget what I wanted to be as a child. I am having that problem now. I wanted to be a doctor when I was younger so when I went to college I decided to major in Genetics. Loved my classes but for the life of me I couldn't imagine being a doctor. Then I decided to pursue a psych degree but I had taken too many science classes. Also, I didn't think it was challenging enough so by chance...I came across Genetic Counseling. It's a perfect mix of Psych and Genetics. On the plus side, I will have two degrees when I’m done. I also want to be a writer, a professor, a rhetorician, a free-spirit. You get the picture I have so many minors right now; every time I take a new course I fall in love with it.
  24. Q13 Fox. O' I miss Seattle. I think we are dead? Yet he can still talk and breath.
