I wonder if this site actually works?
Some women use PMS to excuse irritable, maddening, inexplicable, and oftentimes downright outrageous behaviour.
Oftentimes the men in our lives are perplexed or driven to retaliatory action when faced with women experiencing PMS.
So the caring people at PMS Buddy thought up an idea to assist the people in our lives [...]

Around 11 pm, we left the New Year’s party at the in-laws’ house. Mansour kept signaling for me to go to the designated meeting point in his parents’ house so that we could make an unnoticeable getaway to another party he said that was being hosted by some of his colleagues.
Nadia , my sister-in-law, winked [...]

I’ve been away haven’t I?
Rather like the lover who gets a listless, restless look in their eyes.
I have been here but not been here.
I have been around, blog hopping, but very briefly. I am not as engaged with the virtual Jewaira at the moment but that’s alright. It happens intermittently that I get sidetracked but [...]

You snarled at him in front of the women in his family.
“Abdulrahman romantic?!! He doesn’t know what romantic is!”
I looked at you and wondered about your attitude. No matter how unromantic he is, you’re not going to cultivate any synchronicity into your relationship when you put him down in front of his family, no matter [...]

Romantic means: a man knows all the ways of delighting a woman and charming her off her feet so that she will reciprocate and add to a successful relationship.

I dreamed I was in London on an unknown street. I parked the car I had been driving outside a building and went inside. When I came back out, I looked at my car. It was odd. There were no hubcaps. I looked again and there were no tires. The car was hoisted onto to [...]

I would like to extend special thanks to the Filipino community in Kuwait for the charitable gesture in organizing a beach cleanup project yesterday in the Doha Beach area, around 40 kilometers from Kuwait City.
I love the positive productivity and the proactive cooperation between the Filipinos in Kuwait.

In the Friday Times, there is a story about a Kuwaiti lesbian who discusses her new found sexual orientation. [The L Word: Life behind a Mask]
After reading it, have two questions in mind:

I lay here in the dark and remember. Suddenly the darkness is lit up with the pictures in my mind. It’s like a film, rewinding. I see you sitting beside me, in your black abaya, tense. When we arrive, you are standing by the white car, your head scarf teased away by the brisk desert [...]

We were strangers but shared the same table during a workshop. During the break, I turned on my mobile phone to make a call. When I was done, I set the phone down before me.
“Cherries?!” She exclaimed. She meant: Couldn’t you find any better background than cherries?
I looked at her and smiled as [...]

Moodhy woke around dawn to a strange noise. It sounded like the sheep they bought for Eid was bleating but in a very frightening manner. She had never heard a sheep make that sound.
“Mother! Mother! Wake up. Listen…the sheep sounds very strange!”
They crept out into the hosh of their house where the sheep [...]

I had a maid who would read Webster’s Dictionary in her spare time.
“For a desert island, one would choose a good dictionary rather than the greatest literary masterpiece imaginable, for, in relation to its readers, a dictionary is absolutely passive and may legitimately be read in an infinite number of ways.”

The other night you asked me: What if there was no moonlight? What difference would it make?
This morning I think of all the poetry, the songs, and the romance that may not have been inspired by that luminescent orb in the indigo sky.

The Indian employee with the bright yellow shirt stood upright behind the service desk, holding the phone on his left ear as he jotted down notes. He chuckled merrily into the phone. “Of course we are open during Eid, ma’am. It is IKEA. Where would people go then during the holiday?”

No banking for 9 days. What can I say?
It’s going to be a nice long holiday starting this coming Sunday.
I hope the streets in Kuwait will be less congested as people make a mass exodus for Hajj and other Eid getaways so that we can enjoy driving again in this country.

The traditional picture we have of marriage is a partnership where a couple do things as a pair and with the interest of the family unit in mind. In the days prior to the discovery of oil, many Kuwaiti men traveled for trade and barter as they made their living from the bounty of [...]

“I wore an expensive new abaya to work one day. It cost me over 100 KD and it was very beautiful with its intricate embroidery and lace trimmings. But I didn’t enjoy it for very long. One of the women with me in the division eyed it and expressed her undisguised awe without saying mashallah. [...]
