chattering around you when you're half asleep

do you know about stages of sleep? there's deep sleep and not so deep sleep and we're suppose to put our alarms on during that "not so deep" sleep time coz its the best time to wake up

[they say sleep cycle - light sleep to light sleep - lasts on average 90 mins so we should put our alarms on at multiples of 90 and we'd wake up more easily]

anyway, when im going through light sleep (im assuming here), especially round morning time i can hear snatches of conversation going on around me; people on landing talking, siblings getting ready for school etc...

and i hate it.

i dont know if you've experienced this before, if yes, how dyou feel about it?

I dont want to tidy my room

I dont want to tidy my room!

there's hardly anything there thats mine

its a shared room you see, so why should i be the one stuck in there?

plus a hurricane of the-three-girls-under-the-age-ten has struck.

FOUR NIGHTS AND THREE DAYS STRAIGHT

so why should i tidy my room

where hardly any of the mess is mine?

 

plus there are better things to do

i've got to change the world, i've got to save it.

i cnt be stuck in my room,

when the world is going ballistic.

 

its not fair its not fair!

the duvet's there because the bed was most struck by the hurricane

i dont know why the jewellery's on the floor!

i was asleep the whole time!

tis a problem

why do you act like it's not your problem

i know you're busy, i know you've got a life

but why do you turn a blind eye on this

it is your problem, it is my problem

it is our problem.

i might have a bit more free time,

i might be lazying about

but i can see the consequences looming on the horizon

i might be a bit more sensitive

and again have too much spare time

to feel the pain of those beyond our borderlines.

 

i do not ask you to feel it,

i just want you to know

i see the consequences

like angry black clouds

they're rolling in, slowly but surely.

the thunder and the lighting,

slowly synchronizing

 

i ask you for your help

I will be grateful.

Pick a day when you’ll try to be grateful to Allah.

Allah deserves our thanks all the time, and we shouldn’t limit our thanks in any way… but set aside one day when you’re more grateful than normal. A day when you wake up and go to sleep, and your whole goal is to be grateful to Allah, to thank Him, subhanahu wa ta’ala, as much as you possibly can.

When you rise from sleep, thank Allah with all your heart for the new day, the chance to start over. The chance to grow and get closer to Him. Thank Him for the air you’re taking in with your lungs, and for each breath He’s given you – without having to do anything on your part – since the day you were born.

washing a toybox when you're an epileptic.

I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE ThIS I HATE THIS MY WHOLE BLOG GOT DELETED BECAUSE OF MY OVERSENSITIVE MOUSEPAD.

so, i was sorting out toys and emptied a toybox and thought it needed a wash. i was weighing whether i should do it or get someone else to do it or just stuff the toys in..then i decided to be a good human and not only opt for the washing but do it myself.

im washign the toybox in the bathtub, not being very care. so its making a bit of noise, banging the sides of teh bathrub and the water is going a bit everywhere.
