I’m back. Finally back, or should I say unfortunatly back. I’m missing libya already. My family just don’t get it, why im missing it i mean. I guess they don’t understand that in libya, i feel free, with all of my relatives beside me. Having fun, being able to go outside your house without the need to drop a gallon of water over ur face after five minutes in the sun. I never had the time to do everything i wanted, cuz there was so much to do. We first went to tripoli, and we went to see the roman ruines which were AWESOME! it’s just sad that the country isn’t taking care of them like they should. I got tons of pictures but my laptop is at repairs right now cuz the screen got cracked so ill update with photos later. Tripoli was kind of hot, weather wise.
We went to Benghazi after a week and the fun began. My cousin’s wedding was in 2 weeks, so preperations had to be made. In my country we have about 5 days weddings. First day was the men’s lunch and the official writing of the marriage where they sign and stuff (im a muslim, so not sure everyone will get it), second day was when the bride’s family came to their future apartment/house and furnished it. third day was the bride’s party where the bride’s family invited guests, and the groom’s family comes later wearing traditional clothes and bringing the gifts sent by the groom. fourth day was our day, the groom’s party, where the groom’s family invited guests. The last day was kind of like an after party. I wouldn’t know how to explain it since i’ve only been to three libyan weddings in my whole life. All in all it was tiring but fun!.
When the wedding was over we were free to go to the beaches! we weren’t allowed before because we would have turned black by the time of the wedding. our relatives arranged to go to a place 4 hours by car and stay for 3 nights and 4 days. the day before my aunt told us to come to their beach house to hang, my cousins and i did and i swam till i shrivelled. The 4 days in Ras Alhelal (the place we went to) was amazing, we were about 35 people, i wanted everyone to come but not all my relatives could. (I have 7 uncles and 3 aunts), and we had so much fun, sleeping at 5 in the morning waking up at 7 to go swimming, eating whatever i want cuz i was bruning the calories. the hilarious times when the lights went out and everyone was grabbing just everyone cuz they were scared someone would get lost and names being called out everywhere. It was just too awesome. After that we kind of calmed down, just hanged out here and there. Then we went to the beach with my uncle’s family and my other uncle’s kids, we spent about 6 hours in the water, oh and my cousin and i dug up a huge hole and just lied there and tanned. I came back looking totally black. there was only a couple of days left before we went back to tripoli. i slept every night upstairs at my uncle’s house. my cousin has her own AC in her room so we closed the door watched movies in the freezing cold. It was totally worth my cold. My uncle’s family living in tripoli also stayed upstairs with us so it was total chaos, cuz they had little children. to say it short, the villa never had a quite moment since we came, and thats how i liked it!. The day before going to tripoli my aunt invited us again to the beach house but this time for a sleep over. only me and my old cousins. We played cards till five in the morning. It was too good to be true. The last couple of days we spent in tripoli then last wednesday we came back here. sigh. im totally missing libya right now and my cousins and our fun times.
I want to congratulate DBSK for getting their third #1 single on the Oricon Chart. The first ever foreign band to get three number one singles. so proud <3
The fourth and last book in the twilight series is finally out! and i just bought one today! it looks hella long. 750 pages approx. Im afraid to start reading it, cuz i have a feeling im going to HATE the ending. oh stephanie meyer, oh bella please don’t disappoint us in the end.
I have alot of catching up to do when it comes to Asian dramas and movies, and only 9 days left before university starts. So im watching as much as i can. Doesn’t drama watching sometimes sounds like a chore? wow, since when did watching become a nesisity. oh, the Olympics started!! i was totally bummed that i wasnt able to watch alot in libya, but i saw some swimming competitions, diving, basketball, weight lifting, gymnastics. i hope i get to see it again, because i want to watch it from the beginning.
