The good news is, I had window seats, but that makes it hard to go to the bathroom and pray and walk and such, so....to the bathroom!
----cut off because internet died----
I walked out of the bathroom stall and thank God I hadnt fixed my hijab yet because before I know it A man walks out of the neighboring stall. We stare at eachother for a moment before I ask him if I was in the wrong bathroom. He looks at me, without any shame and informs me in Dutch that no, I'm correct. (now i dont know Dutch, but facial expressions and gestures go a long way). He leaves the bathroom, and I wait for a bit before checking for myself. Ir turns out he was still outside, and as I look at the signs, he talks to me again in dutch. And I understood him perfectly, I believe he was saying, "don't worry, you're in the right bathroom" I then laugh and answer him that i was just checking and I walked back in. I can't blame him for that mistake, considering that both bathrooms are litterly right next to eachother with the men's sign between the two doors. I blame the person who hanged those signs. PUT THEM ON THE DOOR! geesh!
I did get to eat my ramen afterall, the noodles itself tasted great, nice and slippery just like naruto eats them! The seaweed in my bowl was absolutly disgusting. I suppose my mom is right about saying "food is a habit". The meso sauce tasted like salty broth, but thicker.To be honest, the best part about my meal was the half boiled egg in it. It didn't look too fancy either, because I ordered the veggie kind. It was the cheapest. I payed in canadian dollars, but my change was in euro. My dad will not be happy, but I am! :D
Boarding
was in another three hours and so to pass time by; I decided to rest on one of
the reclined seats. I curled on my side for warmth and comfort and after some
time I drifted off. I was startled awake
by an unfamiliar weight resting on my side and from a voice calling out repeatedly from
behind me “"لو سمحتي... (excuse me…) was all I was able to
comprehend. My hand quickly rose up to wipe the small trail of drool beginning
to form at the left corner of my mouth. I then turned to face the source of the
voice and in my deliria I retorted to his calls with an apology followed by a “thank
you, it’s ok” once I realized there was a folded airplane blanket on me. I looked
up at him. Who was this guy? Is he talking to me? Do I know him? All
these questioned rushed through my half-awakened mind as I tried to focus my
eyes on his features. I wasn't wearing my glasses, but he was close enough for
me to notice that he was a young man with wavy brown hair that reached just
below his ears. “ "تفضلي was another word I was
able to make out from him. So polite. He left me no time to protest as
he walked behind the resting chair I was on and walked away. I hastily turned
again in my seat to face him, but he was already a few feet away. He did not
turn once to look back at me. I sat there dumbfounded beneath the folded
blanket, just staring at his back become fussier and fussier. Snickers and
giggles intruded on my thoughts. I turned my head to the suppressed laughter of
two Dutch couples who seemed to have witnessed it all. I started laughing as
well from embarrassment and from the surreal situation I just experienced.
----Plane from Amsterdam to Kuwait----
I am very glad that my sister sent me a last minute message informing me that the reason why my flight will take ten hours instead of your typical 6 or 7 is because it will stop at a country before Kuwait.
Indeed she was right, I am typing from Dammam, KSA. My intestines have been making a lot of noises during the flights. I think my intestines are not absorbing the water properly. oh, and I had another window seat. Take J guys =D J is a window seat, I suppose A is too. I think people already know this information. I can't say I'm happy going to Kuwait. I have to deal with all these people that I don't specifically like. It will be difficult as it is always, to be surrounded by arrogance and ignorance. A beautiful combination, unfortunatly, home wont be an escape either because my family has arrogant ignorant buttheads too.
Now I shall stretch my legs for a little bit, before the plane is full.
