3 Years Short of a Quarter Century!

The rest of day #1 was EVENTFUL. The morning was chaotic with Biboon, Noura, and Lyala. The kids were all over the place, literally. Biboon was playing with her barbies and teddy bears all over the house. Noura is like the Energizer bunny; she just keeps going! Below is Biboon between her Barbies and Teddy bears.

Then, the highlight of the day was the lunch. Despite the nature of the meal, let's say that I had my favourite meal of ALL, which I hadn't had since last time I visited. It was just glorious! Below me swimming in the bowel of food.

After that I, my mom, and my sister, went to visit an aunt house. Again, GREAT times. I love this aunt, and she actually likes to see me!

THEN, my uncles came over to say hi, since I just came back from travelling. By now, my memory has been revived on the whole family drama, and all those internal complicated relationships. A while ago, I thought it's only us, Middle Easterners, have these kind of family drama, which in my brain becomes a melodrama adding to it songs like Yesterday, or Sad Lisa. Nevertheless, I came to the conclusion that the eastern culture has more complicated family relations; however, wherever family relations exists, drama exists.

Ironically, I don't get enough of that kind of drama. I was smiling ALL day long, I kind of missed it. Mom and dad are like down on excitement and mumbling all those references to previous incidents that I have no clue about. But I was ready for some drama.

With my uncles it's words game. For example, everyone now is asking me what I am going to be doing after graduation. I answer proudly that I already have a job; I already signed the papers! (I faxed them in Yesterday, which I am starting to worry that there will be problems coming with that!) So, back to my uncle's words game. One of my two uncles says how he thinks McKinsey's work is a joke. Then he advises me to not go in consulting first, for getting an industry experience first is more important. He utterly believes that one can't be a CEO of company unless he/she has worked as an engineer for long time. Of course, all that sayings were to belittle my work. But I replied nice and firmly saying that it aint a necessity to work as an engineer. Consulting is more fun, more experience, and looked up to as an experience for an entry level. Also, how a 2 years in consulting looked to as twice that time in industry experience. That is just how it is seen! I, also, exaggerated a bit that NI wanted me REAL bad, and I declined them cold hearted. When him and his wife went a bit far in advising me about "life," I said "this conversation is a bit late, because it's all settled. I signed the papers."

As for Sunday morning, had breakfast with mom and dad. Then, I realised that I burned the AC adapter of the Wii. Seriously, it's 120V and I put it in 220V plugs! I am RETARD. Though, my sis got to play like 15 mins in it.

Then, I hit the suites place with my dad. I love this place. Jordanian brand name suites; though, quality is superior and fits are great. I go there, and one guy follows us showing us all the suits they have. They host us coffee and whatever. Don't get me wrong, the place is fancy. It's like a Saks Fifth Avenue fanciness level. I love it! All my suites are ZAY.

Today, I grew a year older. I don't have time to think and reflect, because I am busy getting fat on all the delicious desserts my sis made and the awesome cakes!
