Microwave Mug Cake

Hey followers!

I know it has been a while since the last time I ever posted anything! I'm now back with a great recipe I found and would love to share with you guys. Bon Appetite!


Ingredients:
3 teaspoons of self raising flour
3 teaspoons of icing sugar
3 teaspoons of cooking oil
3 teaspoons of milk
¼ teaspoon of baking powder
¼ teaspoon of vanilla essence
1 egg
Add any flavor of your choice (nutella, hersheys, coffee, vanilla, or anything else that you like)

All you have to do is mix your ingredients well together in your mug and then place the mug in the microwave for 3-5 minutes.

After you've done that let your cake to cool for a while and then flip it on a flat plate and decorate it :D

Here's a picture from my first trial ..

A Smile At Rest

Flashbacks from that day in fourth grade kept coming to my mind. I could still remember that moment when he came into class quietly with a smile on his face, but he didn’t want to stay in our class. His friends were in a different class, so he asked if he could move to the same class and in a few days he had moved. After that, there wasn’t much contact between us. 
The years passed on till we reached the end of eighth grade. It was our last studying day, but it didn’t come to any use though. The whole day went to waste as we played water fight and ran around the school with everyone till the end of the school day. The driver was late picking me up on that day, so I was crazily running around, and there he sat watching my friends and I lose our minds! He was laughing at us, as if we were some sort of entertainment to him. 
Summer days passed by and then came a new year. NINTH GRADE! Unfortunately I had found out that he wasn’t in the same school anymore. Who knew that he was transferring to another school?! It was sad that fate hadn’t brought us together that year. 
Tenth Grade! Alas! We meet again! Your smile took me away as I saw you pass right next to me at the mall. I couldn’t help but sneak around without you seeing me just to see that smile of yours. That’s how it went. Weekend after the other, again and again! You would always lighten up the place as you walked the mall corridors with that charming smile. It's bad that you hadn’t realized that I was head over heels for you, but what is there to do?! It's not like I can just walk up to you and say "Hey dude! I've got a huge crush on you!" and act like it's all normal. 
The years passed by as I secretly crushed on you, but the thing that's even worse is that I ran into you less often. There was this one day where we saw each other at the city fair, and I was giving out flyers for my friends' shop. I ran with the flyers as soon as I knew you were there! I, with all purpose, went up to you and handed you a flyer as I directed you towards the shop. My heart skipped a few beats as I built up the courage to do that!   
As time passed by, the "less often" turned into an "occasionally" which meant that I would bump into you around 5 times in a year!! That was really a turn down! 
Then in my senior year, a day came where I heard that you were in a terrible accident. I was very worried. I asked almost everyone who knew the both of us about what had happened and was truly devastated to find out such a thing! 
My nights were restless! I just wanted to hear that you're fine.. A few days later I heard that you had passed away. It was literally everywhere! No matter how much I tried to run away from facing it, it kept coming back at me! 
I was out with my friends when I found out, and I couldn’t do anything but cry! It's true that we hadn’t known each other much, but my feelings were still there. I tried to forget about it and have fun with my friends, and I did have fun, but didn’t forget.. It's just hard to believe that you're really gone & won't be coming back at all! 
I wished that it were all a bad dream that I could wake up from, but it wasn’t. It was reality. You've been gone for so long, but this is fate & it cannot be changed. All I can ask for is for God to rest your soul in peace, and fulfill your after life with joy in the heavens above.

Based on a true story =)

Hazel Eyed Beauties - Part 13 *FINALE*

Previously
I don’t know how he felt at that moment, but his heart probably was crushed the moment I said those words. He's probably hurt right now. No one wants to be friends after a relationship. It's hard to be friends with someone who was once a lover. Some people believe that this is possible, but I truly deny this statement. 
He then agreed to what I had said, but I could tell that the smile on his face was a fake.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………


7amdan's Perspective

I was totally shocked because of her crushing words. In those few seconds my heart was crushed like shattered pieces of a mirror, but I knew I couldn’t put those pieces together. I kept thinking to myself…
Is she serious?
 Friends?
 Really?
 How in the world is that supposed to happen?
 Once you’ve got feelings towards someone you can't just easily be friends with them if your break up. That's like water and electricity; Pour water over it and it will turn into a complete disaster!!
I finally gave up after thinking for a while.




7amdan: I know I haven’t been spending a lot of time with you lately and that I haven’t been completely fair with you, but we can't be friends. People who were lovers in the past can't be friends together after a relationship, and I'm sure you don’t want us to stay together. I can't do anything about it, because I want us to be together, but I don’t want to force you. Relationships become a success if both people are working to keep it strong, but if one of them isn’t interested they should just leave each other.


Reem: I understand. You're actually right. It would be freakishly awkward if we were "just friends".

After a long talk I was in a state of shock of course you can't get over things so fast. So I headed home and threw myself on the bed & started thinking for a few moments. I then remembered that I had pictures of us together so I went through my picture folders and deleted all the pictures so they don’t bring back *bad memories*.




All you girls & guys out there.

It's not "logical" if you fall in love that easily!! 

Of course the relationship won't last I mean come on it's like watching Cinderella
Guy sees girl falls in love with her, time passes, they fall in love, & and they lived happily ever after.

Well this is reality not fiction..

It's how life is..

Your Romeo/Juliette won't turn up just like that..

For those who truly believe in that, well I hope you wake up from your dream soon, because reality will hit you in the face!!

You have to know each other REALLY well for a relationship to work out. You should be able to answer at least every single question someone asks you about the person you love, and you should spend a lot of your time with that person because you never know if a day will come and that person will be gone.

Your true lover is out there somewhere, but don't be stupid like Cinderella.

Hazel Eyed Beauties - Part 12





Previously


I called 7amdan and asked him if we could get together somewhere, and he approved. We decided to meet at Costa on Shaikh Zayed road. I went there fifteen minutes earlier than the timing we had agreed on, so I could sit alone and think for a while about what I wanted to say, how I should start, and hoped it wouldn’t end imperfectly.
The time flew and reached its desired destination as the hour 7amdan and I decided on approached.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………




I was sitting at the table waiting as I drank my hot Mocha. My heart was beating so fast. I was a little nervous because of what is about to happen. I kept staring at the entrance till he arrived with a smile on his face that lit up the world. I ignored my inner thoughts and feelings. I wanted this to be over. I put my hand up so he could see where I was, and he came and sat on the chair facing me.





7amdan: Eslaam 3laaich
Reem: w 3laikom esalam
7amdan: Sh5barch Reemooh?
Reem: B5air el 7mdellah




You probably know the normal questions u usually ask someone when you meet up with them somewhere. I don’t need to continue.




After that was over, he asked me why I wanted to see him and I replied: "Well 7amdan, I know our relationship started off amazing, but everything has flipped 180 degrees right now and I don’t want to stay this way. I'm sorry to tell you this, but 7amdan I don’t want to be your girlfriend anymore. I just want us to be college friends like we used to be.



I don’t know how he felt at that moment, but his heart probably was crushed the moment I said those words. He's probably hurt right now. No one wants to be friends after a relationship. It's hard to be friends with someone who was once a lover. Some people believe that this is possible, but I truly deny this statement.

Hazel Eyed Beauties - Part 11




Previously


I told them all the details about what I went through, and all the feelings that provoked me! I even told them how our relationship was so they'd understand how I felt; 7amdan & I started awkwardly, and aren't together at all times unlike other couples.


Reem: So what do you think I should do about it?


……………………………………………………………………………………………………


7amda: How about waiting to see what will happen with you guys in these couple of days?


F6amy: Yeah I agree, and if there wasn't any progress, then honey u guys aren’t supposed to be together.


I thought about what they suggested for a few moments and finally replied:


Ok then I'll do that, and if anything happens I'll be telling you enshallah.






One week later






Final exams are over now and my relationship with 7amdan remained as it was. In fact, as much as I wanted to be with him before, I now wish I never was his girlfriend. I thought that his studies were distracting him but, he became a different person than the person he was at the start. He began avoiding me. I didn’t do anything to hurt or upset him, so I don’t understand why he has turned into such a hypocritical.






My heart was crushed as an ant under a stampede. The man I thought would be in my future has turned me upside down. I ignored all the feelings of anger, hatred, cruelty, and much more inside of me. Later on, I decided I had to face him, and end this aimless relationship.

Hazel Eyed Beauties - Part 10

I know i'm SUPER late, but here you go !! Enjoy =D

Ok so now I’ll start writing what previously happened because some readers tell me they don’t quite remember and have to reread the previous parts =P !! Sapej, FJ this goes to u (K) !!


Previously



I got up and changed my clothes to leave to have dinner with my sister at Friday's on Jumeirah Road. We picked up Maitha on the way, since she lived nearby. We reached the restaurant and sat at the table we had reserved previously. We all ordered whatever we wanted to eat and drink, and then began to chat. That is when we noticed someone staring at us with a weird look….
………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

It was 7amdan <3!


I usually text him on bbm to tell him whenever I'm going out, but this time I forgot. I'm guessing he's a bit mad about it, but its okay I'm sure he'll let it pass. It's not like I ask him if I can go out. I just tell him that I am going out, and where I'll be.

He immediately texted me since he was disturbed about the fact that I forgot to tell him. I apologized, and he forgave me. It's the first time I've ever done something that got him annoyed. I'm new at this stuff, and I'm still not used to it.


So the dinner went perfectly, although I couldn't eat comfortably. I have this thing where I get so shy and I don’t like to eat when there's a guy looking at me, whether I know him or not.



Later that night
My phone rang and it was 7amdan.



Reem: Hi... How are you doing?
7amdan: Good el 7emdellah, and you?
Reem: I'm good. By the way I'm sorry about today it completely was out of my mind. I totally forgot!
7amdan: it's ok. It's not a big deal after all.
Reem: So how was your day?
7amdan: Great, but nothing major except when I saw you. I'm so glad I did. It's been a while.
Reem: Yeah I know. You know how it is in university. Study! Study! Study! Especially with the final exams coming up soon!
7amdan: Yeah I understand. Thank god it's my last semester! Good luck in your exams.
Reem: I'll miss seeing you around the university. Good luck to you too.
7amdan: Yeah I'll be missing that too. Thanks.
Reem: Anytime… Listen 7amdan I'm so tired I have to go to bed now, ok?
7amdan: Yeah sure, I'll be going to bed too. Goodnight 7abeeebty. I love you.
Reem: Goodnight. I love you too.


I hung up and started to think about him for a while. It's weird how all this happened so fast.  I feel like I'm living in a dream! I fell asleep unexpectedly, and because of all those thoughts I dreamt about him. I bet you're all thinking that I enjoyed it since I'm deeply in love with him, but I wasn't satisfied with the dream at all! It was a bad dream about him; just about a nightmare! 7amdan and I aren't as close as we were as friends.

I dreamt that he was unfaithful to me…….

I woke up with mixed up expressions al l over my face, and I tried to ignore all the thoughts that were scrambled up in my mind, but I couldn’t help it. It was truly vexing me!



You might think that I'm going crazy, but trust me if you were in my place you'd start to wonder whether it's all true or not. I was hesitating; I didn’t know what to do. I called up two of my friends for advice, and joined them in a conference. I always ask them when I need advice with relationships.




Reem: Hala 7amdooh. Sh5barch? I missed you a lot! It's been a while since I've seen you around university.
7amda: I'm good wallah w I missed you more! Yeah I know. University sucks! I miss high school!
Reem: Yeah me too. Listen I'll add F6amy to the conversation.
7amda: Sure, I'll hold.
Fa6ma: Hala Reemooh. Keefoo?
Reem: B5air el7emdellah. W enty?
Fa6ma: I'm good.
Reem: Listen, I joined calls with 7amdooh, ok?
7amda: Hii F6amy
Fa6ma: Ahlaaaan! Sh5barch yal ga63aa?
7amda: B5air wallah. Enzain Reemooh what did you want to tell us?
Reem: I need your advice about something.
Fa6ma & 7amda: Go ahead!
Reem: So here's the thing….

I told them all the details about what I went through, and all the feelings that provoked me! I even told them how our relationship was so they'd understand how I felt; 7amdan & I started awkwardly, and aren't together at all times unlike other couples.




Reem: So what do you think I should do about it?
