My 10 simple pleasures .. finally!

It all started when Hala got bored and started the 10 Simple Pleasures Tag and she tagged Dima, Weddo and Jood. While Dima tagged Pru, BuJ, and Tamara, Jood tagged Jaz, Wafa2 and Qabany, who in return tagged a million people including Mitsuki, Maioush, 7ala, Life, and Manal. Manal tagged Sha3teely, Kinzi and Dima. Dima tagged Nido, Abed Hamdan and Sam, and that’s how it got to yours truly. Sam tagged me (sorry it took me ages Sam), Qwaider and 7aki Fadi who already answered the tag and buried it in the tags cemetary.

DAMN that wasn’t as easy as I thought! All the digging up, going through people’s archives, which for some reason makes me feel guilty, it’s like going through someone’s diary, maybe it’s just me.

Tagged

So yeah, the tag! So here it goes, the rules say that I have to list exactly 10 things, tag 3 people when I’m done, and keep the picture and I promise it’ll have nothing to do with “choking my chicken, flogging my dolphin or spanking my monkey” LOL @ that:

  1. First and foremost: Eating a nicely cooked mansaf bil jameed el Karaki wil la7meh el baladieh 3ashan mansaf 3a jaj ma binfa3! Preferably done by my mom, who happens to be from El Karak.

  2. Watching old cartoons. Grendizer, Jongar, Sanshiro and the other stuff. :oops: (do you know that some amazing dude uploaded ALL Grendizer’s episodes on Youtube? HOW COOL IS THAT!!)

  3. Surprising my parents whenever I go back to Jordan. I love doing that every single time. Just the look on their faces is enough to fill my days heart with happiness! :grin:

  4. Blogging (no shit!)

  5. Traveling. I love traveling and have traveled to many different places for business and pleasure including Singapore, Malaysia, Switzerland, UK, Morocco, Philippines, Spain, Italy, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Egypt, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Bahrain, UAE (duh) and Iraq even!!

  6. Jogging while it’s raining. I really like that, but too bad I don’t do it anymore. It sucks that it only rains once or twice a year here!

  7. Gadgets and gizmos: deep inside me, there’s a very geeky nerdy person who’s struggling to be set free.

  8. Reading books. I’ve been buying a lot lately, but haven’t done much reading in a while! :sad:

  9. Stealing friends’ lighters. It’s an old competition between us who steals more lighters from the other. Stupid yeah, but it’s never gonna end, but the rule is that it must be a cheap lighter, it cannot be an expensive one, which makes it guiltless really, LOL.

  10. Downloading movies, ebooks, mp3s, all ILLEGALLY! I mean someone has taken the effort to rip those DVDs and CDs and then upload them on the net, the least we can do to show our appreciation is download them! :twisted:

WOW! I finally did it! So I’ll tag (everyone has been tagged) Mohanned (that’ll take him a lifetime!), Desperate Princess in Dubai and Nimir baik el 3odwan.

  3. Gravatar Icon 3 sam

    wow finally! i tagged u like centuries ago…:) that reminds me of a tag i need to get to..hmmmmm..

  4. Gravatar Icon 4 globalorama

    go surprise your family this summer. they will cook you a mansaf, which you will eat while watching 3adnan wa lina. then a cigarette is what you need. in the process, steal a lighter. if you have not gotten sleepy enough, read a book. the next day, go jogging to burn off some the Habra. then, blog about the mansaf while downloading something right after you travel back.

  5. Gravatar Icon 5 Who-Sane

  31. Gravatar Icon 31 Mariam Ayyash

    you use isohunt to download? is it good? any spam? do u recommend any other? beddi menno!

  32. Gravatar Icon 32 Who-Sane

    yes I think it’s the best torrent arsenal out there. Of course you’ll have to download a torrent download client, try BitComet, it’s good! And no spam whatsoever, with few exceptions of course, but it’s the best source for movies (check the axxo movies, he’s the best DVD ripper out there). Enjoy! :cool:

  33. Gravatar Icon 33 i*maginate

    Hi!!!!!!!!!! I finally got around to doing the tag thing! Thanks for thinking of me.

    Old cartoons = cute!

    “Blogging - no shit” LOOOOL!!!!!!!

  34. Gravatar Icon 34 Who-Sane

    hey! thanks for that! :smile:

    old cartoons RULE! :twisted:

  35. Gravatar Icon 35 i*maginate

    By the way sorry for misspelling your nickname - I had thought it was spelt “who-sane” as it appears here in your comments section, but since your comment on my blog appeared as “who’s-sane”, I corrected the spelling in my post.

  36. Gravatar Icon 36 i*maginate

    Actually I don’t know which is right considering on your blog it’s spelt who-sane and in my comments section it’s “who’s-sane”! Perhaps you could clarify this for the future ;)

  37. Gravatar Icon 37 i*maginate

    Wouldn’t wanna get your nick wrong, after all!

    Sorry about this, I simply cannot put all my thoughts in one commment right now for some reason! LOL

  38. Gravatar Icon 38 Who-sane

    It’s either that or someone had herself a couple of extra drinks on a Thursday night. LOL! :twisted:

  39. Gravatar Icon 39 Who-sane

    Who-sane, Who’s-Sane … Husain .. Whatever makes you happy princess … it’s my name misspelled, so you can misspell my misspelling anyway you want :wink:

  40. Gravatar Icon 40 i*maginate

    LOL tsk tsk ;) It doesn’t take any immoral substances for me to be unable to ascribe my thoughts to one comment alone. Now let the comments keep rolling! LOL

  41. Gravatar Icon 41 i*maginate

    I never saw the connection! Then again, I never saw your picture until recently. Love can be blind :P

  42. Gravatar Icon 42 Who-sane

    :sad: I thought you love me for who I am and not the way I look! lol!

    Who am I kidding here? My writing sucks, so thank God I got the looks at least (well so I’d like to think)
