A Day To Remember

July 7th…
Now, that’s one day to remember for me…

July 7th 1998, in the summer course, after finishing my morning lectures, again I was faced with that scheduled hour of nothing to do.
No one I knew was free in that hour, everyone had lectures, and everytime I’d end up wandering around the University campus listening to my walkman or scribbling something down.

But not that day.
As I was walking from the faculty of science, past the square, past the university restaurant on my way to the languages center, there she was.

Ok before I get into that, I have to give you some background info.
Earlier in the year, towards the first semester and as I was sitting around with some friends of mine from the faculty of arts, I saw the most beautiful girl in the University of Jordan.
I didn’t know who she was, what her name was, what she did, nothing. All I knew is that I instantly fell for her.
I saw her more often from that day on, but she was always in a hurry going to a lecture or going home or something.

Anyway back to July 7th 1998.
There was that amazing girl and with her was a friend of mine.
They were walking my way too.
And we met, our common friend introduced us to each other, and things got better and better from that day on.

Now, that girl is my wife.
And that’s all because of that one fine day 😉

  3. Aw… Will you two just stop that and wait till you guys get home and see each other?! Geez! Makes me sick to my stomach (of envy). 😛

    Nah… You guys are too cute. MMM, you’re very lucky. Not many people are able to get the girl they “instantly fell for”. 🙂

  5. Hi Jenn, I was waiting for someone to tell us to get a room or something 😛
    Anyway, yeah, I know how lucky I am for getting my girl 🙂 I always tell her that God took all my luck and gave me her, and that’s why now I’m as unlucky as I am 😛

    And Dalia, Thanks 🙂

  6. I have to say, Kinkish and Pinkish no longer hold the “Digital Couple” title anymore! You truely deserve it.

    Your blogs keep me in tune with your lives, which is a great thing.

    I wish you all the best, and I am really happy to see you both in harmoney with each other.

    I am sure you do have your differences, but both of you seems to know how the other person is special and unique, and you both seem to appreciate it.

    Allah ybarekilkoum fi hataytkoum.
