Aaliya, adiga iyo heesaha Youtube wali ma kala daalin miyaa?

Hal hal?!?! Ma riyoonee, hal iska dhaafee nus Soomaali kuma arkeysid. Xataa haddee rabaan tabar ee ku jiidaan uma haayaan. Qof baasto qaleel iyo bariis kuu cunaayo xuu jiidi karaa, asagaaba issocodsiin karin. Wax meeshaan la jiidaayo arag hee. Source: Google.

Asagoo raran waliba wax ka daadanaayo ayee jiidaan. From everything sariiro iyo armaajooyin to kiishash tobaneeyo ah ayee ku wada qaadaan. Waa yaabeysaa. Dadkaan murqaa ku raran, unlike you know xiito xiitiyaalka kibirka badan ee Soomaalida.

Saak, waligaa Nayroobi ma arkin miyaa? Qax xataa kuma soo marin? Straight from Dhagaxbuur miyaa? Meeshaan waa magaalo hormartay, dameer iyo xoolo kaleba looma ogola magaalada gudaheed. And dad shaqeysanaayo jiido. Waxee jiidayaan haddaa aragtid mar mar dameerka xataa ma xamili karo.

Tuulo baa koox ka carartay, tuuladaas baa koox kale soo gishay. Same old taxane, different atooriyaal. Taxane 20 sano socdo, perhaps longer than The Bold and the Beautiful?

Today's pictorial blog. Some random pictures taken on today. The two weekend days is the busiest time in Islii, particularly Axadda. You will see those two days more Reer Kenyaati than Soomaalida. Tuulooyinka dhan ka imaadaan to shop here. Waxaan oo sarar (buildings) isku xig xigo aad wada aragtiin and upcoming la dhisaayo Soomaali ayaa wada leh.

U sheeg, Showqi Soomaalina, dadkaas qabiil qabiil iyo gobol gobol in lagu sheego wey kasoo horjeedeen, mana rabin, anagana uma rabno. Wey ka weynyihiin reer gooni inay sheegato dadkaas dalkeena usoo halgamay.

Waaw, real su'aalo adaa i weydiinaayee. Journalism school maa kasoo baxday. Sidii White House's spokesman camal ugu jawaabaa hee. Banooni waala ciyaaraa laakiin real sports teams kuma arkin, though wey jiraan organized ones. Koley ani ma arkin. I don't think cricket inay Soomaali B iyo T ka taqaan, let alone Islii lagu ciyaaro. Waxbarashada wey iska fiicantahay, and it depends how reerka iskaga ladanyahay ama wax u heysto. Qofba qofka ka ladanyahay ciyaalkiisa iskoolada fiican geystaa, dhalinyaro badana kuliyado ku xareysan jiro outside Nayroobi. Again, depends if the family can afford it. Kuwa soo harayna iskoolada privateka ah iska dhigtaan if they are not working. N.B. -- Maqaayad high-end inaa inta ka furatid maa rabtaa? Hmm....now, my report will cost a few dollars.

An angry, misinformed man's rant. More rant than a seasoned opinion piece.

Mayee Col. Hal daar dhisan maa gobol lagu noqdaa. Sawirada meesha la surtay igu daranba. Sawiradii halgamayaashii iyo aabiyaashii gobonimodoonka ahaa ee SYL meesha la surtay, qaas ahaan Cismaan Geedi Raage. Halyeydaan ma noolee murugo waa hore u jiran lahaayeen waxaan camal markee arkaan.

Aad iyo aad loo shaqeystaa, Soomaalida joogto badanaa dhalinyarada waxee ka shaqeystaan dukaamada isla Soomaalida leh. It is not a great pay (most are being paid around $100 - $150), but it is better than nothing. Gabdho iyo wiilalba dukaamada wey ka shaqeystaan. Kuwa farmashiyo ka shaqeysto, kuwa net cafe u wada furan, kuwa maqaayado ka shaqeeyo, kuwa hoteelada ka shaqeeyo. Kuwa hoteelada iyo maqaayadaha ka shaqeeyo shaqooyinka fud fudud ka shaqeeyaan waxa kale waa laga faantamaa waa iska taqaanaayee oo Kenyaatiga ka shaqeeyo. Ninkii shaqo rabo wuu helaa meeshaan, believe me. Shaxaad ku nool wey iska yaryihiin oo sidii waagii hore ma'aha. Gabdhaha xataa qaarkood cuntooyinka kariyaan, oo wiilashada shaqeeyo iskaabulada ah qado u kariyaan, oo taas xataa laga shaqeystaa. Haddana hooyooyinka ka shaqeysto waxyaabaha daruuriga jiro, sida biibitooyinka cuntada yar lagu kariyo, caanaha geel jidka lagu gadaayo, cajiinka, miisaska banaanka yaalo oo dhar iyo kareemooyin ah. Meeshaan waa iska Soomaaliya camal, shaqooyinka wey badanyihiin, inta kuma soo koobi kariyee. Kuwa kale iyagoo meel fadhiisan shaqeysto wey jiraan, sida muqalasyada iyo dilaalada. Kuwa inta ka qaado alaabta oo magaalada geeyo jiro, wax badana ka siyaadaayo. Kuwa inta ka qaado Rwanda iyo Congo geeyo jiro. Kuwa trailers u socdo jiro. Maqaayadaha aragooda aad ugu kulushahaayee, LoL. Haye, waa soo sawiri doonaa.

Today's blog: Islii and internet speed A considerable, noticeable change of the internet's connection down here in Islii. It is not anything close to broadband's super-fast speed yet, but it has changed tremendously in the past two years. One can watch youtube and other online videos very conveniently, no long waitings. Heck, even one can download and not notice its slowness. They are now installing fiber optic. A one-time Safaricom flash disk costs around 1,500 ($18) and you top up, pay per bandwidth. A sidenote: If you visit a net cafe, foolbuug, err facebook, lagu wada jiraa. Ar maxaa la ilbaxay oo la sanbaxay oo la afbaxay.

Saak, lottery beel maku dhihi kariyee. Sanad sii maqanyahay kulahaa. I can't stay here that long, heck Toronto inaa isku soo dhaqo waaye a few months at least markaasna anoo nimceystay soo noqdo. Meeshaan busteeda iyo dhiiqadeeda yaaba longer than few months joogi karo. Laakiin Nuunka aa runta ka sheegtay, anaaaba ka yaabay igaarkaas.

Dad reer Hargeysa ah ayaa sheegay in sanadihii la soo dhaafay xaaska Godane ay sanad walba umuleysay taasina waxey muujineysaa in deegaanka Somaliland uusan marnah ka lugbixin Godane. Warka suu u socday intuu ku banjaray. Kutiri kuteen dhaaftay tan.

Mayee Wax iyo Waalni. Maamul gobolleed qalad laga fahmay. Bishii hore waxaa arkaaye on Universal another afku sheeg maamul gobolleed loogu wanqalay magaalada Landhan, loona bixiye Jubbaraas. Koow.

Nuunka, runta maa u sheegtid. Runtii maalintaas waa yaabay, marna ma yaabin. Mar isma dhaheynin far dheer shafkaaga lagu taagaa, marna waxaa xasuustay meeshaan waa Islii oo ka filo wax walba. Aaliya, adi maa dacwad qabtid marka? Soo dacwoo hee. And noo, I am not here for poking or such. Waxaasba, as I said, Koronto waaku heli jiray, kuna heli karaa, no need for poking even.

Maxaa ku qoslee, it is not like waxaas camal inay Koronto ka dhicin. Sheeko.

Nuunka, speaking of Islii iyo gabdho, a few weeks ago anoo across from Masaajidka 8ka maraayo, on an evening time, sadex gabdhood isla socdaan aaya hortey kasoo socday. Maba fiirineynin until mid kamid ah the three, the one wearing indhashareer, poked her long finger on my chest. Waaba naxay, mindi wax i giliye mooday since aanan fiirineynin. Wey sii socdeen, waliba iyadoo dabada sii lux luxeyso, yacni isoo raac camal. Waa iska qoslay oo waa iska sii socday, labada kale la socday intee isoo fiiriyeen qosol galeen, yacni ula jeedeen ka wadaan 'welcome to Islii.'

Wax fiyoow iga dheh. Nuunka ku dhahayn. Aaliya 2002 gariir ee dhul baraf miiran ku ciyaareysay, see waaye. Aaliya, waa ogahay abaayadiis, waana ku mahadsantahay, laakiin still yaa yiri mid ma joogto. Ar ha i wareerin dheh.

Waraa dhoore, Aaliya abaaydey waaye ee ha igu dirin yaah.

Kii soo Muslimaba gabar Soomaali kusoo boodooyaa. Gabdhaha Soomaalida kaligood maa Muslinimo lagu sheegay bas? Wah. She even told me about dreams she has had about marrying a Muslim revert brother (not goals, actual sleep style dreams. A recurring dream at that), and that she has a definite preference for a revert brother herself.

Yaana yiri ma jirto. Adiga maxaa, ogaasho jeclidaa. __________________ Cajalkaan last year la duubay and heck, Islii now looks more changed than what the video shows. And no, I didn't record it.

Ee tuulo walba maa baran karnaa, mayooy.

Heestaan Farxiya Fiska aad ayee u qabsatay Soomaalida. Aad iyo aad. Heesta sanadka inay tan tahay shaki kuma jiro.

Toban toban baa naloo dhali jiray, depression iyo murugo midkoodna waalidkeena kuma soo arag. Sheeko baraleeydaan goormee ka dhamaanee dadkaan.
