Nura's Thoughts...: August 2006

http://nurasthoughts.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html

Sometimes there is so much noise in my head that the only way I get peace is by writing. So I'm giving this a try. Saturday, August 19, 2006. I quit my job. After nine months of working at my IT company, I handed in my resignation on Thursday. My last day is on August 31st. I can not describe the feeling, it feels like I just got out of a suffocating, highly stressful and hopeless relationship and now feel like I have the world and many fish in the sea for me to explore!

Nura's Thoughts...: June 2006

http://nurasthoughts.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html

Sometimes there is so much noise in my head that the only way I get peace is by writing. So I'm giving this a try. Wednesday, June 07, 2006. I am an all-or-nothing personality, there seems to be so little balance in my way of being that sometimes I need to consciously rethink my actions. Often, my energy and thoughts are so focused on one thing that I feel burnt out or overwhelmed. Posted by Nura @ 6:04 AM. Montreal, Quebec, Canada. View my complete profile. Spiritual Partnerships I was skimming through t.

Sometimes there is so much noise in my head that the only way I get peace is by writing. So I'm giving this a try. Wednesday, October 26, 2005. It has been five years now. Five whole years. The promise. My parents would be happy there too. Then in September of last year, five years after we applied to go to Canada, after finishing my degrees, securing a job and finally getting some stability into my daily routine - all the documents were ready for us to go to Montreal! Sigh The irony of life! It feels as...

Thursday, December 29, 2005. 5 Things People Don't Know About Moi. 1 I used to play the Piano. 2 I get bored and restless easily - can't sit still and just do nothing. 3 I have freakishly long toes (same with the fingers but the toes look more bizarre). 4 I cry during movies, especially cute romantic comedies. Thanks redenclave for tagging me! Posted by Nura @ 5:20 AM. I feel like Montrealer...

Seeking the rush of inspiration. Sunday, October 31, 2004. Poetry and Prose by Khaled Mattawa. Here's a poem by my most recent favorite Libyan poet. You can check out more of his poetry by hitting the link at the bottom. I chose to post this poem because of Highlander's last post regarding the Italian occupation of Libya. The snowflakes landing on your shoulders. Are a first in this city, in this colony you rule. The guard who carries your briefcase. Tells you snow had never fallen here. The photogenic e...

Seeking the rush of inspiration. Thursday, September 30, 2004. 1-The persuit of a career in media/journalism: 15 hours/week (sometimes paid, sometimes not);. 2-Advocacy for my community's political stances and acting as a junior civil rights guardian with definite prospects for meeting bigger fish and making bigger splashes politically for the sake of my people's rights;. 3-a reliable source of income for the essentials. What's gotta give: Money, belief, or opportunity? Posted by smokey spice at 1:45 AM.

Seeking the rush of inspiration. Wednesday, August 25, 2004. I haven't slept well the last few nights. I'm tired and need to try to get some sleep. Posted by smokey spice at 2:14 AM. Monday, August 23, 2004. Currently, I'm actively working for/with the local chapter of a civil liberties group as well as hanging out at a satellite news station waiting for the crumbs of clips they sometimes ask me to translate. They also ask me to do other stuff and have been teaching me about the media industry in gen...

Seeking the rush of inspiration. Friday, December 31, 2004. In California, we're still a few hours away from 2005. Happy New Year to those who have already entered the new year. Every new year, I have this wierd feeling of loss. Kind of like the feeling you get when you read the last page of a good book. This year is no different, except that I'm looking forward to change. It's all I have hope in at this point. My hopes for next year are grand, but grandness is not impossible. Happy New Year to everyone.

So you can imagine that I was quite disturbed when a lady told me that my relationship with my parents appears very co-dependent and it seems that we suffer (yes, she did say suffer. psychobabble! From "enmeshment". Ding ding ding. Time to google. So how does someone, an observer who doesn't know you very well. come...
