HoMe ALoNe
Three days ago, my mum left to visit my sister in canada. It is not the first time we get separated but it is the first time I stay alone at home. It is expected to last for about two months.
At first I was busy tracking the progress of her flight, calling her on the roaming mobile I gave her as well as updating relatives of where she is at the moment. Then, after she arrived safely and after I got back from work I started to realize the difference. First thing when I entered from the door there was no air, as I closed all windows, doors anything that might let air in, I thought by that no dust will come in as well so I won't have to clean up :P
Whenever I needed or remembered something I realized I will have to make it on my own, I will in fact be in charge of the household. From food to laundry, answering phone calls, making sure things are closed behind, throwing garbage away..a lot of stuff. But I do believe it is a very good experience, I have to face that long before I start the immigration process, i learnt from it as well how important and vital the role of a mother is. The happy thing is that I can leave the laptop open or whatever anything anywhere in the house not worrying about who will cross over which cable causing what to fall or close, no visitors while I am at work, no worries of someone criticizing how things look, I am neat yes but sometimes I have to put a lot of things around as long as I need them and so as not to go back and forth between rooms to bring stuff, which might not look so cool but it saves me a lot of time and effort. Hope she is enjoying her stay at canada :)

I think it's an interesting experience, I'm looking forward for something like that soon.
Being independent, free,wild, master of yourself, meet new people and miss old people..longing for memories and old days :)
Like the saying:"fl safar 7 fawayed ".
I don't know any of them :D:D but I'm sure they are logical.

I'm tidy too, but I'll leave stuff out where I can get it easily... that's just common sense. :-)

yes i love the experience a lot, yesterday i called a friend and invited him to come stay with me for two days or something and called another to come work with me on something, it is a great feeling to own the place and choose who to come and when :)
Flat, Dish, Dezel, eMule, a PC, Laptop, Books, Fridge, Fans/AC
Just one step left to become kings, a car :D

umm, well yes i put stuff too where i can get it easily, in my case one room -the living room, i have the so-called bed, eating table, laptop, printer, papers/books, cable, tv, nearly everything in one room, pretty neat -huh? :D
if mum sees this she would throw me out of the window..
Yesterday when i called her she asked about whether or not i ate-as usual, and whether i want anyone to come clean the place, she thought dust would be a serious problem :P it is far more worse..:)

Oops :)
I think cleaning is fun when you do it cause you want to.
Organizing is very important for everything, it facilitates many things.
You can have everything you need nearby , and still are arranged in an organized way.
Figure out the equation(though I think it's much simpler than that;) )
