Baby it's all good! Women wearing their Hijab are the most beautiful, the most modest creatures on the face of the earth...that is...if she's sincere about wearing it and being honest to herself. It's rare to see a Somali sista whose into Hijab these days cuzz of how the world has evolved in the past century and all the drama that people produced. I admire sistas who are attached to their DIINUL-ISLAM and doing their thing...school, work, marriage ect. Wear your hijab girl...

FirstLady, I feel ya girl!

Revisitin' one old classical topic...carry on...

Rudy, Again!...you must be a comedian!....lol. F-Still, ...it's like diff. strokes for diff folks. LOOOOOL...4 months later...lol...was he a retardoooo?...sorry but I had to laugh at that one. Some folks just dont understand you know.

B, I recently noticed that too...when I was trying to update my email address...that you could change your 'displayed name'...so I was like...what the hek...lol I agree tho...there should be some way of informing us who these pple are..it would definitely reduce the confusion.lol..cuzz I am thinkin most of the 'old-school nomads' are gone-gone right....but they're actually here still but wit a diff. name. That's what I said too...WOW!

Oh boy...this has been like a year and a half now since this topic was up...craaaazi. Simple Woman, Oh com'on girl. You know we wouldnt mind your crazy and funny relationship stories. Or just email it to me and I'll forward it to rest of my pple...lol.jk. Rudy, That was short but funny as hell.

Girls, I don't know what happened to LadyFatima but I wonder what the "Moderators" have to say about this. Barwaaqo, Good thing you figured out who Kaafi was... He was playing a undercover nomad. Only his co-workers knew who he was. Oh well...can't hide these days anymore....small world you know.

WOW! man. She has many great dreams and insha-Allah she will fulfill them...I can see it in her eyes. -------------------------------------------------- At one point, I wanted to have the same dreams and help out people by traveling to developing countries like Somalia until I heard something very bad and it sort of scared me to think some people would do such thing. Well...this is what I heard. I heard that after you graduate from college/university and you decide to travel to Somalia to help out (for free of course...good intentions...w/o pay)...people over there will assisinate you and kill you right there on the spot man. So that way, no one is smarter than rest of the people around. Their reason is that everyone's intellect should be equal or about equal. Also, especially for men, they'll hunt you down cuzz I also heard that if for instance someone from your qabiil or whatever they call it...shoots and kills some other person...and then escapes...then they'll come after you and assisinate you since the killer already escaped...and you're from where he's from... :confused: This, I thought, is the most chaotic, the most barbaric shyt I've ever heard...to even think that people would do that...and they're calling to be Muslims---brothers. People who pray salaat together at the Masjid. Very sad man! :mad: Anyways, I am happy for Fahima, and I think she'll be one of a kind.

Let me put it this way: There is a saying and I believe it's true: Jealousy arises often from a narrow heart.

Aplus, Very decent response. I respect that man! You know it's kinda funny cuzz my parents aren't even here...they're just chillin' back home. But you know what, I wish they were down here wit me or in a nursing home than in that awful place down there. But unfortunately...they love it down there which is cool cuzz it's there "sweet home". The wont trade it for anything in the world. Illmatic, Am I gettin myself in trouble wit you man?...yo my bad dawg! I dont think I'm in any trouble or in any danger in anyway...lol...but anyways, express your thoughts man...I guess it's aight. And I ain't mad at'chu man!

Princess, Tell me about it!...But i guess it's cool now...after awhile you sort get use to it. Sometimes it bothers me to think that my parents are reading every little thing I write or post...like this!,...lol Peace.

Mr Gentlemen...you cracked me up dawg...I'm up here laughing...yo, stay cool man. Very funny Rudy...lol Bulo, Thanks for your thoughtful message. It seems as tho most of you guys are responding wit a negative feedback. I am cool wit that...you know, I aint got no problem wit it. Say what's on your mind! But I guess there is a little misconception here. Hello!...Did you hear me say that we should celebrate Father's Day or Mother's Day? Hell no! I simply said asked if ya'll buy gifts for your Father during father's day...you what I'm sayin...I mean what part dont you understand? Pple you have to realize that I am not making an argument here for any Holiday...or to persuade anybody. Peace.

Silent-Sista, point taken girl. And I'm aware of that too. No one is immitating here. Even in Islam, it's require for all of us to treat our parents with the utmost respect as well as being kind to them. Is that a bad thing now? Mr. Gentleman and Lady...points taking and like I said...lol...I dont know...maybe ya'll need to be little open-minded for a chance. Look at things from different angle. Gediid, I like your respond cuzz you brought a good important point. Now you tell me what's better in this busy world: leaving your old folks in a nursing home or in a health center where they receive 24/7 assistant wit anything they want or just letting them stay at your house when in actuality you're busy wit your own life and family and work? I'd choose the nursing home cuzz what happens if I am at work and they're ill (dying)..whose gonna help them? Whose gonna be there for them? Anyways, Father's Day is ofcourse celebrated in the Western worlds but I think we all do in some form or way; we just dont have a name for it...but it just exist. I mean dont you buy gifts for your parents every once in a while and tell them how much you love them and appreciate their existence...it's the same thing man. By the way...it aint a matter of arguing..Father's Day is coming up and I thought about how or if ya'll do any special thing for your Dads. Besides, my Pop's is back home chillin and I talk to him every once in a while on the phone. Havent seen him in decades...

In the African Continent, what's the coolest country wit the coolest pple, cleaniest (almost), nice to hang around wit...etc? Besides Somalia ofcourse...it's obvious...lol I'd say Nigeria tho I havent met a lot of pple from there...but there are few cool, nice Nigerian pple at my school. Peace.

Og Girl, That's tight...Islamic Law. Wow! Princess, Cum'on girl...be realistic...lol. Wanna be like Juliet Caesar huh...Well you're almost there cuzz you're a Princess now...then you'd be a Queen...and then You'd be able to Rule The World (remember that song...if i rule world...very nice huh). Okay. It aint my dream job but I love teaching. Maybe when I retire, I'll teach and educate them college students.

Og-girl, Very funny! lol. Have you heard about Mother's Day? It's okay if you didnt cuzz they only celebrate these days in the United States where they acknowledge mothers and fathers and their hard work and kids buy gifts for their parents...etc. Princess excuse my misspelling...lol I think they should have spelling check in this thing. :confused:

I have both of my parents in this forum. Isnt that little odd? I guess my family has a lot of free time on their hands. I wanna give a shout-out to all my Pops. Happy Father's Day man! Other than that, I got a few friends.

Bulo, I definitely agree wit you. But since parents are important people in general...they ought to have their own day out of the busy year along wit giving them gifts all year-round and all the things they deserve and ought to have. Princess, I'm sure he'll appriate that. Good luck.

I forgot most the pple 'back in the day' cuzz they aint around anymore...like LadyFatima, Lulla, just to name a two...lol But I met Scorpion_Sista...she's the coolest! and few others. My list would include: Tamina, and OgMoti from Cambodia, Ayaanick... And anyone whose cool, outgoing, likes to have fun, clean, and dram-free.

Do ya'll celebrate father's day? It aint really a holiday you know cuzz holidies are assoc. w/religion, but it's just a day where you show your love to your old Pop's. So do ya'll do sumthin for your fathers' or father's father..lol. Gifts...etc you know. :rolleyes: Reason why brought up the holiday concept is because most Somalis think it's just a 'thing' that 'gaalo-cadaan ay sabeeyaan'. But everyone does in some form, but not all of us give it a name like Aabo's Day or Hooyo's Day. U feel me?

Of course this would mostly apply to women cuzz it's rare to see a dude maxin out his credit card in a single store unless he has $100 credit limit na'mean or summthin like tat. And this could change for instance if he has a pretty chick with him and he wants to impress her with his big 'loop of dow'. But this aint about me so go on now...lol.

It's a tough one but carry on...

Just the one city or state that you frequently visit for vacations, for families/friends, etc. other than your city... ...just in case wondering about me, I frequently visit California. Peace!

I am not familiar with Somali public figures...dont ask me why...but my guess would be one of those Somali singers...it's hard to tell which one cuzz I dont know their age...but most definitely a Somali singer. Why...cuzz they travel occasionally to perform at different places...lol. Whatchu think?

I was just thinking about this in my head cuzz I am very organized and clean person and I had some pple that came over and they just made a mess in my room...trashes all over the place... How do you deal wit these pple in general...in a nice way...and remember these are our pple...Somalis...yeah...why I said this cuzz some dont understand or want to understand...I dont know :confused: Peace!
