Serendipity - 11

My style in writing keeps on changing but anyways i'm liking how this is unfolding. i'm not sure whats going to happen either, things pop up as i'm typing. I'm also trying stuff i liked in other books i read. Lets see if i can pull it off ;p Its like an experimental story.

The convincing went well. Really well actually. My parents are travelling to Thailand where my dad will check into one of their best hospitals for a full check up, and mom as well while she's at it. They were worried about dragging their only child there and keeping her restrained in the walls of a hospital during her vacation. But no, the universe planned this trip right on time. I'm excited to go shopping, its really cold in Turkey. And I'm really excited for the trip, i dont think i'll be focusing on my finals. I have to remind myself its two weeks away Nouf, two weeks. Chill.

Our last trip to Munich was a whole another experience. My mother and Mariam's mother are long time friends, since both of their kids were first in KG. Mariam's mother, Aunt Fatma, is very much similar to my own mother's personality, which, i think, is what is comforting my mom about me going with them alone. She's very chilled, relaxed in a way that makes her a friend rather than a mother. She's the type of person that you would sneak away with in the middle of the night to watch a late movie screening rather than run away from. She's fun to have around and surely travel with!

My phone vibrates and i jump on my bed to grab my blackberry hoping its more details from Mariam.

I almost forgot about the presentation. I'm good with presenting i shouldn't worry, its the questions later that i hate.
I'll ignore that blushing comment. Do boys ever let go of any embarrassing moment?

I find myself smiling stupidly at my blackberry's screen. This guy's sense of humor is unbelievable. I enjoy his sarcasm very much. I know a lot of people that will just be offended by sarcasm, definitely not me. He's relaxed and takes things lightly. Its nice to have people like that around. Tomorrow is the last day at the program. i'll miss him, i think we'll make good friends though.

Soon Mariam calls me with all the updates and details about the trip. So, Lojain, Haifa, her mom and aunt, Mariam and her mom and I are the ones going.

"We're nearly graduating from university, we'll have more freedom to wander alone this time" adds Mariam enthusiastically.

I place my head on the pillow after rehearsing and fixing the presentation. I close my eyes allowing my stream of thoughts to wander around, to travel the world, to show me all the possibilities that i wish could happen.

Dear universe, surprise me.
