A little preview of what’s around me..

My sanctuary, i don’t know when I’ll find the perfect reading couch for my room
I’ve been sketching (mind you, they’re bad sketches) , calculating (very funny since i suck in math) & designing.
I’ve also been consuming lotsa panadol (as usual), doing lotsa concealing (not the best skin at the moment) & buying accessories, which aren’t Gold? it kills my mum, but commmon, I really can’t care less about gold & jewelry in general, I’d rather buy something that looks good, it might cost as much as gold, which could sound pathetic, but Oh well, I really am not in love with gold, unless it’s a special gift from a special person.
Been also in a mood for design, I’ve been re-branding, branding & designing for fun, which I haven’t done in aaaaages. I love design, I love art, I love anything beautiful, but hey, who doesn’t?
& I also visited Abu Dhabi Book Fair for the first time accompanied by dearest Reem. I loved being there, I didn’t even notice how time flew by so quickly while we haven’t even walked through the whole place. I also came out with 4 books? I think i behaved & deserve more books in the near future, ehem.
My bedside table is always a mess, what you see now is an AFTER image, not sure I’m brave enough yet to share the REALLY messy side of me. Don’t you sometimes feel that so many books should remain next to you? like I’d really read all 13 books that are next to me, all at once? I just can’t help it. I’m used to having my old red bookshelf right in front of me in my room. Now, I’m really trying to cope with having a little library.
I scribble a lot, since school days. Especially during classes or when I’m on the phone. You can actually guess all that’s being said in class or through the phone if you just have a look at my scribbles. I think i inherited this from my mum. Her case though is more severe, for she used to scribble & sketch right on the telephone. actually, it reached most of my siblings too, one of them would sketch in any book laying in front of her, another would also leave some marks on your papers, & the 4 year old doesn’t really care what she draws on, even if it’s a car’s arm rest.
Haraaaam, mum caught her when she was drawing the second eye, she was 3 yrs old here, where’s all the talk about allowing you kids to express themselves, mum?
Before i hit Publish, I’d like to know, what type/genre of books would you like to receive in a giveaway? I’ve mentioned earlier that i have some extra copies of some books which I’ve purchased by mistake, the ones close by right now are “The Mill on the Floss” by Eliot and ” The girl with the dragon tattoo”by Stieg Larsson, which is the first book of the famous millennium series. I also have Amr Khalid’s book خواطر قرآنية & much more which I’ve either given away already or haven’t moved over to this library. Anyhowww, do let me know what type of books you’d like in a giveway. Novels? biographies? religious? Self help? Arabic or English… whatever it may be… I also tend to buy two copies of the books i love in case I meet someone who’d love to own the book, so do check out some of my favorite books on my shelfari.
PS. the photos above are taken with the iPhone App Andigraph, love how it resembles a Super Sampler or an Action Sampler, only digital.
