My 6 precious kilos

It’s the story of the 6 kilos I gained throughout these past few years. They’re the kilos I didn’t want to loose, the kilos that kept me going, they’re my support. Although many of us want to shed them all out, I’ve managed to hold on to 3 of them, while I messed up with the rest 3.

I gained the 4th kilo in my freshmen year. It was great, supportive, and a good comfort. We got used to each other so fast to the extent that it got messed up and started breaking. The fats in that kilo melted as I tried clinging to them. Though It was so hard, it kept breaking down into semi fats, creating cellulite, that accumlated on my body, which I hated. I know it’s still there, but I can’t see it on the weighing scale, hence i dont know its worth.

The fifth kilo had a different story. It was the kilo that comforted, entertained, and loved me. It’s the one lived with me throught the good and bad, the one that always found a way to cheer me up, it always supported me no matter how shitty life was. I didn’t want to loose that kilo, but it had my brain damaged. I started thinking that maybe i am starting to gain more weight, and that i should get rid of the one causing all this fattnes. It didn’t let go; it was holding me tight no matter how much I exercised. Though it was one special kilo, I had to step on my heart, run on that treadmill, and loose it. And so I did.

The last kilo was the hardest one; it gave me a hard time. Although I gained it a few months ago, it was comfy, and felt easy gaining it. It was all good, and didn’t show any symptoms. At one sudden night, my blood pressure rushed through my head, my heart started beating rapidly it felt like it was going to explode, I was unconscious. My brain collapsed and so did my heart. I fought hard; trying to survive, and loose the extra kilo fearing it might kill me. I struggled and it held to me tight, fought it, but it’s still holding, am crying: “am dying”, and there I was; lying on my bed; ALIVE and struggling.

I now believe in the saying
“What doesn’t kill you makes u stronger”.

With love,
Noora

Suckers should go to hell

It does hurt when you hear the closest people to you criticize you, the way you live, the way you deal with things, and the way you CELEBRATE YOUR SUCCESS. Though I don’t really give a shit to what they think and it never mattered to me, it does hurt me when I remember that these people are supposed to be the most supportive ones, the people I should rely on in my good and bad times! It’s funny that they still wonder why I don’t like sticking around them! We lack that old bond we had because of your non- civilized mentality, so it’s not my fault.

Mom, I know your not going to read this, but I’d like to get this out of my system and thank you for the great person you are, the most supportive one of them all, thank you for appreciating me, thank you for being proud of me, thank you for believing in me; and in my abilities. I know that they wish they were in my place and have a mother as open minded and great as you, but guess what suckers? She’s all miiiiine! And if it weren’t you, I wouldn’t be the confident person I am who never cared but for you.

I feel sorry for u suckers, the world is in a continuous change, people are changing and you guys still have a mentality of the stone age. You were never as successful as I am, and are followers of our so called cultural taboos, so don't dare and compare myself to you. Everything is considered 3aib *shameful* for you guys even speeking out your mind and DRIVING A CAR, screw your shitty beliefs when I’m not doing anything wrong and have my parents and his approval, screw you, u all suck!

I have so much anger in me right now and I guess I have to stop here and not spill out their dirty laundry!

Noora

A final shout to them: DIE SUCKERS..DIE!
