  1. I always thought that I was different, and this proofs to me that I am . My personality can be seen in all of these types, but I strongly see myself at 1,3,5,7,9 (how ironic is that since they are all odd numbers....) xoxox
  2. Illaahay subxaana qaadir ah naguma keeno. Most of us go around thinking, it is not gonna happen to me, or we dont think about it at all. Well that is not good enough, early detection can safe your life. If you havent already, please ask you doctor about how you can do self examination or visit any clinic and get the self examination chart. I can not stress how important this is, so please learn about this disease. You can visit this website for more info http://www.thebreastcancersite.com xoxox
  3. It was my first job ever(it was summer and it was hot), I worked at a fast food joint, and I hated it, I lasted only 4.5days and I quit....brings back bad memories. On the other hand, my favorite summer job was being photographer's assistant. We used to go different locations for a shoot, and we traveled alot that summer, met alots of people...it was fun p.s. this is a good topic sis. xoxox
  4. Fuaad, Lately I noticed that somalimen talk more than the women :rolleyes: . I have witnessed grown men (oo war isku qabsanaayo), it was pathetic. And I am sure some of you will agree with me about, somalimen who talk behind their ex-girlfriends (whatever happened to "be a man and let it go"). Believe me Fuaad, naagihii ayaaba iqarso noqday, compared with the so called rag. xoxox
  5. lol@mobb_deep, Oh my god, you've been busy bro xoxox
  6. It is true that, there is a woman behind ever successful man. But I think, for you to get the support you must have the ambition. No woman will blindly support a man with no ambition ( I know I wouldnt), it is a no win situation. xoxox
  7. lol@Mobb_deep (find a little girl you can lift...lol) That is the funniest things you have said xoxox
  8. I know my mom's family used to have one when they were growing up, and my neighbors back home also had a one too. If it is gonna help him get around, definitely go for it. xoxox

  11. SURVIVAL @ WORK 1. Never walk without a document in your hands People with documents in their hands look like hardworking employees heading for important meetings. People with nothing in their hands look like they're heading for the cafeteria. People with a newspaper in their hand look like they're heading for the toilet. Above all, make sure you carry loads of stuff home with you at night, thus generating the false impression that you work longer hours than you do. 2. Use computers to look busy Any time you use a computer, it looks like "work" to the casual observer. You can send and receive personal e-mail, chat and generally have a blast without doing anything remotely related to work. These aren't exactly the societal benefits that the proponents of the computer revolution would like to talk about but they're not bad either. When you get caught by your boss - and you *will* get caught -- your best defense is to claim you're teaching yourself to use new software, thus saving valuable training dollars. 3. Messy desk Top management can get away with a clean desk. For the rest of us, it looks like we're not working hard enough. Build huge piles of documents around your workspace. To the observer, last year's work looks the same as today's work; it's volume that counts. Pile them high and wide. If you know somebody is coming to your cubicle, bury the document you'll need halfway down in an existing stack and rummage for it when he/she arrives. 4. Voice Mail Never answers your phone if you have voice mail. People don't call you just because they want to give you something for nothing - they call because they want YOU to do work for THEM. That's no way to live. Screen all your calls through voice mail. If somebody leaves a voice mail message for you and it sounds like impending work, respond during lunch hour when you know they're not there - it looks like you're hardworking and conscientious even though you're being a devious weasel. 5. Looking Impatient and Annoyed According to George Costanza, one should also always try to look impatient and annoyed to give your bosses the impression that you are always busy. 6. Leave the office late Always leave the office late, especially when the boss is still around. You could read magazines and storybooks that you always wanted to read but have no time until late before leaving. Make sure you walk past the boss' room on your way out. Send important emails at unearthly hours (e.g. 9:35pm, 7:05am, etc.) and during public holidays. 7. Creative Sighing for Effect Sigh loudly when there are many people around, giving the impression that you are under extreme pressure. 8. Stacking Strategy It is not enough to pile lots of documents on the table. Put lots of books on the floor etc. (thick computer manuals are the best). 9. Build Vocabulary Read up on some computer magazines and pick out all the jargon and new products. Use the phrases freely when in conversation with bosses. Remember: They don't have to understand what you say, but you sure sound impressive. 10. MOST IMPORTANT!!!: DON'T forward this to your boss by mistake!!! LOL,

  18. Well said Thunder, for once I agree with you Unixguru, You reminded me of STAN, Eminem's song featuring Dido xoxox
  19. Dragon, So you are canadian touche :rolleyes: , Of course you dont have an issue, yet, you felt it necessary to point out; it is the it thing nowadays for somalis to have a white friend, and you wondered whether or not it symbolizes something....see where I am going with this, I hope so . xoxox p.s. who is K.C??
  20. Dragon, The simple truth is that I didnt even think about the name thing until you pointed out. FYI, I have alots of somali friends and I am proud of that, but I also have friends from different cultures and backgrounds. After all I live in Canada, and it doesnt get any more diverse than here. That being said, I dont know anything about " having a white friends is the it thing", how ironic that you know about that??????? I have known my ajnabi friends since high school, we went to the same college, and now we occasionally get to together and have coffee and chat about stuff. It seems to me that somali guys have an issue when it comes to non-somali males ........Now, why is that???????? I think I am gonna post a topic about this......huuuuhmmmmmmmm Kool_Kat, Welcome back, havent read you arround lately, whacha been upto? Maandeeq, what can I say, some people dont just get it, but thanx for setting them straight.
