bye 2010 hello 2011

today is the second day of the new year 2011, i expect it would hold lots of changes on a personal level. i have just enrolled myself in an interior design course, where on successful completion insha2allah, ill be rewarded a diploma for a professional interior designer. you must be wondering, why ID when u already have an IT bachelor?! well girls, IT was a total mistake to be honest. i wish i had the courage back in collage to switch majors, but i was careless enough to just finish with my studies and start working. i totally regret it now, and i thought maybe its the time i should do something about my wish. i want to stop regretting and taste how would it be like if i have gone ID right from the start. will i hate it and get bored too? lets wait and see. its all about distance learning and time management between my assignments and my home. what makes me feel good about it, is that the progression is gonna be on my own pace, no rush, i can go as fast as 3 months or as 6 months or as long as i want. all im hoping for is that i enjoy what im about to start, w inshallah kher.

i also plan to shed my pregnancy weight away, can u believe i am still roaming around with the old 12 kgs?? i personally cant! it has already been over a year since i gave birth and i still dont feel ready about it. its winter u know and u wanna keep eating and getting urself warm and cozy. but inshallah this should stop very very soon. i wanna go back to my old stinky magical drink (cumin + green tea + mint leaves + fresh ginger), finish a 1.5 ltr of water, and very low fat meals. i already ordered a 2 in 1 bike and cross trainer machine to help me get faster in shape. my brother's wedding is expected to be in easter's holiday, which leaves me with 3+ months to go. i hate it when i feel like ma7shoora bel zawyeh! i dont wanna be a fat mama in th party :(

2010 ended nicely el7amdellah. we had some friends over for 5 days, they have boys with the same ages as mine. so it was a mad fun house, but we have all enjoyed it.
Saif masha2allah finished memorizing souret el naba2 in less than a week, and he proudly recites it in front of whomever comes over. speaking of public speaking in my past post, el7amdellah on the next day of the christmas play, saif recited ayet el kursi infront of at least 80 people, and he mashallah was very confident and proud. so man taraka shay2an lellah, 3awadaho allah bekhayren menh, sub7an allah.

zizo started walking 2 weeks after his 1st birthday, and needless to say, he's driving us alllll nutts! he's become louder, more confident and full of surprises! his favorite songs nowadays r dan dan, 7o6y zait ya 7ajjeh and kol kbebeh kobooha. he also does remix with these songs by moving his hands in a specific way to determine the song he wants us to sing for him. he had his 3rd haircut today since birth, and gosh the ears! they were nicely covered with the long hair but now they r so obvious! i hope they settle by the time he gets older, fingers crossed!

hubby is spending his annual holiday at home, and its driving him nuts! he cant believe i didnt want to travel to dubai this holiday, and he feels a little depressed especially that the weather is not helping us to go out and about much.

Tuesday is the day term 3 is starting, and i hope cold weather gives us a break now. my hands skin is very cracked even though i make sure to moisturise them as much as i can. cant wait until spring comes over!
