Rabab

Today is the day we all were waiting for .....

But before I tell you why .. 
I will talk about this person first because the reason is related to her. Her name is Rabab, I call her Rabilla :D, we first met on the first year of college "Higher Diploma  year 01". My first impression on her was that she was very annoying and she asks question a lot. Actually she must not be blamed because she faced some problems regarding the college portal in the first few days. Later on we became good friends beside three more, two of them are currently in Finance and one is Nadia who is still my friend in my class along with Rabab. We share lots of good memories together and we really had fun being friends. When we met first she was engaged then I attended her engagement ceremony as well as her wedding. I feel like I shared a very big part of her happiness and TODAY is the day all class were waiting She Got Her First Baby after a journey of Nine months.

I still remember every moment ...  it seems like yesterday ... days are moving quickly and we are getting older and older ... we were children, became teenagers, some of us became mothers, and finally we really became WOMEN

I would like to take this opportunity to thank her for her help and support towards my studies and wish her a very happy life with her family.      

Self Confidence

I always feel like I suffer from lack of confidence toward myself, because I rarely speak up my thoughts or talk with people. I think I'm more of listener than talker, maybe one of the reason that I don't talk much is that I came across people who took my ideas as nothing. Today I read this article about how to strengthen your self confidence and decided to share it with you all.

They are total of 10 steps and here are the steps I liked:

Good Posture

Similarly, the way a person carries herself tells a story. People with slumped shoulders and lethargic movements display a lack of self confidence. They aren’t enthusiastic about what they’re doing and they don’t consider themselves important. By practicing good posture, you’ll automatically feel more confident. Stand up straight, keep your head up, and make eye contact. You’ll make a positive impression on others and instantly feel more alert and empowered.

                                           Gratitude

When you focus too much on what you want, the mind creates reasons why you can’t have it. This leads you to dwell on your weaknesses. The best way to avoid this is consciously focusing on gratitude. Set aside time each day to mentally list everything you have to be grateful for. Recall your past successes, unique skills, loving relationships, and positive momentum. You’ll be amazed how much you have going for you and motivated to take that next step towards success.

Compliment other people

When we think negatively about ourselves, we often project that feeling on to others in the form of insults and gossip. To break this cycle of negativity, get in the habit of praising other people. Refuse to engage in backstabbing gossip and make an effort to compliment those around you. In the process, you’ll become well liked and build self confidence. By looking for the best in others, you indirectly bring out the best in yourself.

Work out

Along the same lines as personal appearance, physical fitness has a huge effect on self confidence. If you’re out of shape, you’ll feel insecure, unattractive, and less energetic. By working out, you improve your physcial appearance, energize yourself, and accomplish something positive. Having the discipline to work out not only makes you feel better, it creates positive momentum that you can build on the rest of the day.

Focus on contribution

Too often we get caught up in our own desires. We focus too much on ourselves and not enough on the needs of other people. If you stop thinking about yourself and concentrate on the contribution you’re making to the rest of the world, you won’t worry as much about you own flaws. This will increase self confidence and allow you to contribute with maximum efficiency. The more you contribute to the world the more you’ll be rewarded with personal success and recognition.

Favorite Activity

Sports

As I posted earlier about my interest in poetry, today I will share with you my second interest which is sports. Since I was a child I used to love sport classes and I've always been the leader of a group where they follow my steps after the teacher’s instructions. I am usually one of the players who are chosen to perform in front of the audience continuously. We used to do some exercises with and without balls, in pairs and individually. Unfortunately I never joined a club to enhance my sport skills it was only in the school until the school stopped giving sports classes.

Later on when I joined DWC, the gym attracted me a lot and I was very interested in the games they have such as badminton, table tennis and basketball, beside a new game that I always wanted to play which is squash. I practiced squash with my friend and sometimes alone, so when the sports day came my friend and I played squash in a way that made the instructors proud. Moreover table tennis instructors where also amazed with my playing because I didn’t let the ball go for maybe 5 minutes =).

In addition I did cycling and had a great tour around the campus, a year later I wanted to do the same but sadly I broke my hand after a minute or two of starting to ride the cycle and I couldn’t enjoy the sports day =(.

Now I became very lazy as a result of not having any partner to join my happiness. I really need to encourage myself to do some exercises in order to be active again.

Here I am sharing with you all a video on the basics of squash 

Poetry

Today I will talk about one of my interests

As a UAE National, one of our traditions is poetry and I discovered that I'm also interested in Poetry when I was in grade 9 or even before. When I was in school I always loved to read poetry and my teachers liked the way of my reading. Then later on I tried to write some lines starting from 2 lines, then by time I reached to write about 12 to 15 lines.But my writing always when I'm in full emotion, whether am sad or happy and as you know emotions is the way of describing that converted in a meaningful poem. Whenever it comes to poetry I like to listen and try to understand it's meaning. To enhance this interest I'm following some Arabic poets in twitter. I never focused on other languages but I believe that poetry is beautiful in whatever language because it comes directly from the heart.

Sisters' Hang Out

2nd.April.2011

What am I going to talk about today is one of the enjoyable day of 2011

On this day my sister, cousin sisters and I decided to have fun for a whole day which is not an usual act .. anyways so we decided to watch a movie then lunch and shopping. We used the metro for our trip and stopped at Dubai Mall

But unfortunately something stupid happened when we went for a movie, my elder cousin sister was not allowed to enter the movie just because she was short and she looks like teenager and unluckily she didn't have her national ID or any card with her to proof that she is not teenager which disappointed our first step toward the joy.

But we moved on, first we went around the mall and enjoyed the view of the aquarium with different types and sizes of fish and the water fall in the middle of the mall

Then went for a delicious lunch as everyone choose their favorable food such as Iranian food or McDonald's

After that we went to Sharjah toward "Al Qasba'a Channel" and rode a boat to go around and have a photo-shoot. The weather was amazing that made our tour wonderful
