Winning, Love, and a whole lot more Giveaways

So, Saturday was the grand tournament at ImaginOn library. It was pretty nice. I played against the winners from two other branches and this time I actually had quite a bit of competition. Nevertheless, I won!! Yeah, I didn't get anything though. The only prize they had was the same game they gave out as a prize at each branch. I didn't think that I had a need for 2 Scrabble Slam card games so I said no thanks.(She asked me if I wanted it so no I didn't just say: I already won that so no thanks).

What I'm really thinking is that they should've had a better prize. I mean, at my library I won the Scrabble Slam, a book, and Dots candy. At ImaginOn, I won nothing! Well, I could've won another card game but why? I they knew that the game was being given out at the different branches as a prize then why would they have that for the grand prize as well? Anyway, enough complaining, I'm really happy I won. 

Okay so on the topic of love: I really love my father. I mean, he can be hella aggravating at times but he'll always be the man that raised me and takes care of me and just makes sure I have whatever I want. 

Yesterday we had a little talk. You see, Saturday night, I'd fallen asleep early. Forgot to make salaat, clean my area, all that stuff. So everybody keeps coming to wake me up and I'm all like "Yeah, yeah, I'm coming" and then 10 seconds later "Zzzzz" So my father was apparently calling me to clean my area and I'm like "Yes?!" "Zzzzz" "Yes?!" "Zzzzz"(I was really sleepy). So finally he yells at me all hard and angry like and that's when I wake up and I'm like "WTF is his problem?" And I'm all super pissed because I'm being yelled at and I'm tired and I so don't feel like cleaning. So I went up front all huffy, cleaned my area all huffy, even said nastily to my mom "I got this" when she was cleaning up some stuff around my area. I was in a super mood. At some point during the cleaning my father(asking everyone else I assume) said "Is she cleaning up yet?" and I snapped "Yes" at him. So my mom calmly came and talked to me and was all like: "Why are you mad?" And "You knew you had to clean up and stuff before you went to bed" and I wasn't really feeling like hearing that at the moment so I was just half answering and half ignoring her. What she didn't understand though was that I didn't have answers to her questions. I wasn't mad at anyone, I was mad at everyone and no one at the same time. I was just pissed for no reason. So I finished my area and then made salaat and went back to bed.

So then yesterday afternoon my father called me and was like "I know we've been bumping heads lately but I just want you to know I love you" and I was like "I love you too" but I guess I looked super confused because he was like "You don't think we've been bumping heads?" And I'm like "Not really" and then he mentioned the previous night and I was like "Oh, that? I don't like being woken up so quickly after I've fallen asleep and I get super mad no matter who is waking me up." And he was like "Oh, well I'm glad you told me that because last night I was mad I was like 'All I do for them and I just ask them to clean up, etc...'" Then he was like "It's good that we had this talk, it's true that sometimes you just need to talk it out." So yeah, if you ever have a bump in your relationship with anyone, just talk it out, it won't hurt. 

But anyway, what I wanted to say, was that I really love my father and I am grateful for everything he's done for me and for our family and he's really a great dad. 

So on a completely different note, I so should not have gotten a personal Instagram. I mean ever since I got it I've been taking more pictures. It gets a little silly sometimes. Honestly though, I don't take that much more pictures so it's cool. 

A good thing about getting a personal Instagram is... giveaways! Sometimes I feel guilty about entering all these giveaways but then I think, I'm not guaranteed to win any of these so even if I don't win all but I at least win one of the giveaways I'm in then I'm good. 

So yeah, I guess that's it, gotta go so singing off for now, bye, annyeong, sayonara, adiĆ³s, au revoir, ma'a salaama!!!
