My 8th grade chemistry teacher once told us that he loves to watch Indian movies just to cry! Back then, that didn’t make sense to me. Now I guess I know what he was talking about.
As some of you already know that I smacked my laptop onto the floor a couple of days ago (no major damage, ctrl button was lost though). Yesterday, and after being provoked by the sis, I was an inch away from smacking my phone onto the ground!
Really sad, I know! Just at that moment I realized that I seriously need help! I got in a cab heading to Hamra on the verge of crying.
Walking down Hamra street with a cloud above my head. Anger and misery invaded my soul and right in front of Madina theater, I tripped with my flip flops, went a step back in a desperate attempt to regain balance.. then I hit the ground right on the face! And yes I was wearing a skirt!
I burst into laughter as the guys from Kababji and some random people were checking on me! With a couple of “How sweet of you”, “No thanks I’m fine”, “Merci”, “la baseeta ma sarli shi”, “Shukran 7abibi I’m good”, I got out from that shameless fall.
For my great surprise I felt a lot better which reminded me of Freud’s theory about the pleasure felt while shitting! That can be proven biologically as well using an anatomy of the rectum and what glands are stimulated!
Contemplating about this I realized that whenever you are feeling down, fall down and laugh you’ll be a lot better =)
Thus let me share a couple of my “many” falls =)
5th grade
The stairs
I was in the greatest moods ever, being hyper and all as a fine Thursday came to an end and we were all heading home! Bags on our back stuffed with all the books, copy books and exercise books of that day subjects, we went down the stairs right behind our oh-so-cruel Mathematics teacher. Then I slipped, lost control and went the whole stairs down on my arse
with the bag bouncing behind me, and yes I tripped the math teacher
2nd year @ Uni
In front of the Cafeteria
We dropped the second lecture and find ourselves an amazing spot under a leafy tree across the cafeteria’s door! Around 10:30 I decided to go to class to get my books, since all students were out and about the café for their morning break. I stand up, just then a friend called my name, I turned left, lost control stumbled upon a friend’s bag, spun 2 times and fell on my right hip.. First there was silence.. then we all bursted into laughters with a couple of “ouch” “awww” and people asking if I’m okay.. And yes I torn my jeans :/
