Doomsday : Pending

I woke up this morning to the sight of a few shopping bags sitting there, ever so innocently, at the end of my bed. In my drunken stupor I thought to myself "hmmm, is it my birthday already?" But I knew better. We don't celebrate that sorta thing around here. So I churned my brain a bit harder. "Hmmm, is it Christmas?" Nope, we don't celebrate that either.

Come to think of it, we don't really celebrate anything in the Dodo house. So all this could only mean one thing.

I pounced on the bags and to my complete horror and dismay, not only had mom gone and done my shopping for me, disregarding my taste in clothes (she KNOWS I hate heels, dresses, anything sparkly, anything fancy, anything remotely PARTY-ish). Let alone the fact that all this stuff is from shops I NEVER buy from, hell I don't even walk into them just to take a peak. Too... ummm... immature for my taste I guess.

Not only are the heels waaaaay to high, but their bling factor is off the barometer!! And that dress! Holy mother of crap. Ok so I don't really mind the dress, it's not bad, but it's effing white! A bit too bridal, wouldn't you say? Well at least she knew there was no way in hell I would wear that halter without somehow covering my saggy arms, and paired the dress up with a black cardigan.

Looks like someone's sold me already, no consent, no zag, no 3amaat 3ain. And not only did the getup not get my seal of approval, it was absolutely shunned by baby sis!! That speaks volumes, damnit!

Yeah, I don't like a person buying me clothes for me either. Are you going to return them?

angelo.... yes i'm a grown woman, i can do my own damn shopping, thank you very much! and i can pick and choose my own fricking husband!!

and no i cant return them, they're for when mr. mystery bachelor comes to propose :/









nora-cassandra... i would've been happy with them had they come without an occasion. unfortunately the occasion in this case is a marriage proposal. mom doesnt want me embarrassing her in front of the groom-to-be and his folks, what with me showing up in my usual jeans and sweater garb, very inappropriate for such an event :/ oh and im somewhere in my 20's :P

Marriage proposal? You’re mom doesn’t want you embarrassing her in front of the groom-to-be and his folks?? I’m so happy right now that I never had to go through that! :D

I can’t even imagine how you are feeling! You have to write a post about it!! I’m half Kuwaiti but never gone through it! I just went for holidays met my man and after 2 years living together we decided to get married! So totally different way of choosing the man I would share my life with! But I would love to read about your feelings and way of thinking! :)

I'm almost 29 now, and married for less than 2 years!
