In Retrospect...

Awalan thank you so much for all the nice comments and words of encouragement.. walla i was planning to stop blogging right after i posted my first post lol... bas now im actually into it and i think im gonna keep going...

I think i should tell you a little about myself...
Im not kuwaiti bas ive lived here all my life so i speak fluent kuwaitii with the occasional badliya:P so bear with me...I just turned 18 and im a university student...and basically this blog is the story of me and my love<3>

in todays post im gonna go back to when i saw bader for the first time and how we eventually met and got together.

______________________________________________________________

The first time i ever saw bader was the day of tasjeel at uni for the second course of my first year (which was a little over a year ago). He was standing with one of my friends and another guy (which i became friends with later on).
I dont know what it was about him but something attracted me to Bader from the moment i layed eyes on him (cliche i know.. but true!) Im sure if any of you girls out there see him you wouldn't think he was gorgeous or drool-worthy or whatever you wanna call it; but i was attracted to him min awal nathra!
Later on i asked my friend fawaz who his cute friend was
"Ha fwaiz, whos he cutie you were hanging out with yom il tasjeel?"
"Ay wa7id?"
I then described how he looked to fawaz.
"ohhhhh hatha bader... lesh?? ^^"
":$ oh la nothing just asking:P"

*(oh before i go on let me tell you that fawaz is like my brother; he's very protective of me w 7ada he looks out for me w he always has my back. I've known him min ziman min wagt highschool and hes one of my closest friends"

" He has a girlfriend la t7awleen:P, w a9lan madre.. 7ata law he didn't i suggest u stay away."
":S lesh? mu 5osh wa7id?"
"madre... ma a3rfa 3adil bas kan yadris bara ib amreeka w tawa he transferred back here ... w his girlfriend amreekiya w chithee if you know what i mean"
"oh okay...:P ha shlon mawadik..."

w basically that was that... nisait 3anna for a while but ofcourse i couldn't help but admire him every once in while; one of his classes was conveniently right before one of my classes and in the same room ..so ya *wink wink* but it wasn't like i was obsessed with him or anything..bas chithee a phase...

*6-ish months later*

I had just finished one of my classes and was going down to meet my friends when i saw *drumroll* BADER! i hadn't seen him in more than 6 months! w azeedkum min il shi3ir bait: he was talking to a close friend of mine! :D
So what do i do? walk up to them in a very non-chalant way and say:
"Oh hey fahad! wat u up to?"
"Hey B...not much walla...wat about you?"
"Same here... just finished class and im going to meet my friends to study for my calculus midterm"
At this point bader jumps in and says :
"oh your midterm is today? mine is tomorrow."
"uh..shlon tomorrow? tara il imti7an muwa7ad:P w its today at 5:30!" (and at that point it was 3:15)
6ab3an stubborn Bader mu9ir inna his midterm is bachir so i tell him to ask someone from his class w i was right:P
so basically i saved his ass!
Anyway after that... he asked me if i had a number for a calculus tutor and i gave him my tutors number, he said thank you and nice to meet you and all 3 of us went out seperate ways.

Around a week later...

Im sitting 3adi chilling with my friends when who walks in?......any guesses?....anyone?
okay ill just tell you : fahad w bader!
So they walk in and sit with us...bader sits close to me so i take ma chances and start a conversation with him.
"ha how was the midterm?"
"walla tamam.. i got 8...wat abt u?"
"lol.. i got 15..afa lesh 8? :S "
"dash il imti7an mu daris :P w a9lan m kint adri inna fee imti7an:P fa yalla may5alif"
"ee walla.. yalla its better than the zero u would have gotten if you missed the midterm! :P"
"LOL! e walla! thank you walla u saved my ass!"
"haha anytime ;)...ha kallamt il tutor?"
"oh 9a7! i wanted to tell you!.. i lost his number...can you give it to me again?...but my phone ran out of battery so can u text me it? heres my number $%##^&*(&)"
6ab3an i didn't mind.. lol now we both would have eachothers numbers ^^

The next day around 3 il 3a9ir i was resting in me bed reading when my phone rang, Bader calling... :O so i pick up:
"allu?"
"hala bedour shlonich?"
"tamam what about you?"
"walla tamam...ha wainich?"
"umm.. bilbait?"
"lesh mu imdawma ilyoum?
"imbala dawamt:P"
"la ma dawamtay! ri7t il mukan illi killa u guys chill in w your friends were all there but you weren't"
"yimkin i had already left.. what time did u go?"
"at round 2? ee 2-ish..."
"ee i was at home:P i leave early on thrusdays..."
"oh okay..."
"lesh did u need anything?"
"la bas kint abi asallim"
"oh okay..."
"fa ba3dain lama ma ligaitich gilt adig...w check and see how you were"
"oh thats sweet of you thanks"
"yalla 3ayal ma ra7 a6awil 3alaich...have a nice weekend bedour"
"thnx, you too bader"
"bye"
"bye"

I hung up the phone with a huge smile on my face...

Two days later i decide to text him and ask him if he talked to the tutor:
"hey bader shlonik? ha kallamt il mudaris?"
"hala bedour! walla 3umrich 6uweel! i was just thinking about you! ee walla kallamta w gal inna hes too busy w can't take on anymore people :("
"oh you were thinking about me? lucky me ^^...ee he is very busy..5ala9 may5alif... i can tutor you if you want?"
"really? you would do that ? walla i'd appreciate it a lot! i need all the help i can get with this stupid subject"
"ee akeed ...sure why not...you have my number now so just tell me whenever you need any help"
"sure will do ;) and you have my number too.. dont feel shy sweety;)"
"i wont ^^"

10 minutes later i get a msg min badoor

"hey.. i forgot to ask.. when are you free tomorrow?"
"umm..im free from 12-3 lesh?"
"perfect...shrayich ni6la3 inroo7 cafe nearby w we chill?"
"sure that sounds good!"
"5ala9 3ayal, i finish my class 12..ill give you a call as soon as i finish shrayich?"
"sounds perfect ;)"

:D omg i couldn't believe it! i was so thrilled and overjoyed!
bas after a short while the feeling of euphoria started slipping away and worry crawled into its place; i've know the guy a week..w in that week i saw him twice and talked mara on the phone w txted twice..so i didn't know him very well...infact i didn't know him at all!
how was i supposed to go out ma3a alone!?
