Discovery of the Day- Nadia

Nadia is a female name, most commonly given in Europe, the Middle east and North Africa. It has origins in Russian, Arabic, Bulgarian, Spanish, Italian, Greek and Serbian.

In the Western world, its origins are in the diminuitive of the Russian name Надежда, Nadezha which stands for hope.. Nadine is a French form of this diminuitive..

In the Eastern world, Nadia means announcer or caller in Arabic. It also means 'love of my life' and you are my world'. Not only this, but Nadia also means young plant such as a young tree or flower.

I knew that my name had both a European and Middle Eastern-Eastern touch to it.. I was named after Nadia Comeneci and also for it's arabic definition.. but boy.. 'love of my life' and 'you are my world'??

I may be Nadia.. but Nadia Mydin I am..

Christmas..

Caught in the frenzy of unwrapping christmas presents on the joyous anniversary of Jesus Christ's birthday, a moment of pause occurs and my energy dwindles down and if it were a curve, it would be curving downwards.. an anti-climax.. If only I could press the rewind button and play and continue to do so... but well, the next one is probably not until 365 days to come..

HO HO HO.........................

When one is meant to be reading..

Instead, she scribbles on her notes and comes up with..

'My heart is meant to pump blood, and that is its only function'..

Of Violins and Tantrums..

Yes, I play the violin.. No, I played the violin.. if playing horribly counts.. and I miss my violin.. I want my violin.. which one mummy? The full size one, the 4/4.. Not the 3/4.. That's too small for me now.. If you can find a way to un-fragile it, seal it nicely and if it doesnt weigh to much, pass it to Azrieal will you? Thank you! I love you mummy.. Or if not.. what say you.. I buy a new one? Online.. And.. it gets delivered to my doorstep! Now you wont have to worry.. If not.... I'll throw a tantrum.. like I did before.. and you remember my violin tantrum.. surely you cant forget that one!

Which one? The one with the Vanessa Mae concert! When you promised to take me but you had forgotten.. And I ended up harassing Papa at the golf course.. And you had to take me in the end! And no mummy, I did not fall asleep.. Not at all.. I remember every detail.. She had an electric black and white one.. I ended up with a classical one.. (courtesy of Atuk), and Violin lessons.. That i detested.. but persevered for 6 years..

There.. my tantrum days.. Boy, was I a horrible child.. This evening, someone asked me whether I have thrown a tantrum in his presence.. The last tantrum I threw was.. 12 years ago.. Now, I just threaten to throw em.. And of course I wont throw anymore tantrums.. Coz.. like you said.. I kan dah besar..

I'd still like a violin, if not my violin..

Roles

.

"Sometimes people are aware of the rules, and they attempt to conform to them but, at at the same time, they try to indicate their lack of commitment to, perhaps even their disdain for, the role they are playing. Whether committed or cynical, individuals on many occasions improvise their performances, attempting to cope with uncertainty about what is going on, with disagreements about what should be happening, and with competing expectations of their various role partners."

Strangers, we were...

And I liked it when we were..

Unrequited

"If you find yourself in love with someone who does not love you, be gentle with yourself. There is nothing wrong with you. Love just didn't choose to rest in the other person's heart."

-by buvy? or someone..

I came across that.. and well, I believe some people might be able to relate to that..

My dearest ***, I never really understood what you meant, and I may never do.. but well.. this is for you.. and maybe, even for ******* too..
