I'm not dead!!

  So I recently decided to open my habeshagirlblogging email because I have never, not even once opened it since I got it. I got lots of emails (just kidding I got like 4) from people who read my blogs. Half of them asked me if I was dead and why I stopped writing, the other was concerned about my disappearance, he just wanted to let me know he enjoys my writing and the other was telling me to stop writing.
                         

I had a hiatus because I've been a bit busy with school and life. I also had a writers block and I didn't know what to write about. What if I'm actually not HGB and I'm her ghost.

That's probably your reaction. I knew you were too habesha for this ghost ish. 

Sorry I'm just really exited to watch Unfriended soon. 

  Yo shout out to those (4) people who took time out of their life to email me! 

More like we ride together, we live together! I don't want you to die!

I feel like if you're reading this you're too young to die. 

I am also about to drop my first mixtape soon Son! In Amharic!!!!

APRIL FOOLS!!!! I know April fools has passed, i know it's not April 1st but give 

me a break. And I don't even know if Mixtapes in Amharic exist. 

   The writers block still exists but here's a story that happened recently about a week ago. 

About a week ago, a week ago!! Sorry I've been obsessed with

Vine but let's get back to the story.

  I won't say when it was because I will be distracted again; but I went to the Apple, Samsung and all 

electronic stores with my mom because she wanted to buy a new TV.  We get to best buy and she liked this one huge TV, so we get the guy who works there and he tells us that it was 1,454 dollars and kept explaining things about the TV. In that moment I saw the glint in my mom's eyes change. 

It's here, oh no! Not again!! I'm like

                                     

My mom was like 

 Mom- I will take it for 900, 950 at most!

 Worker dude- ma'am we don't do that here. We have fixed prices.

   He's looking at me pleading with his eyes because I was just standing there laughing, I mean I can't 

stop it so why not enjoy it.

 Mom- look okay, 900 too much discount, maybe 950 too much but I give you 1000! 

 Worker dude- but it's a fixed price, even if I wanted to give you a lower price I can't!

                                                          I'm like 

But also like

Mind you my mom has been here long enough to know you don't bargain here.

We go to stores everyday even though they might be different 

She knows you don't bargain here. 

Mom this ain't bedru's shop. You don't bargain here. Anyway we ended up buying another TV. My mom can't be the only one who does this. There was a time when she tried to bargain for potatoes and I'm like 

                                     

Even though you're 

embarrasing mom I still love you! 

I won't promise to be back soon because I don't know when I will be able to write again. But I hope you liked and enjoyed it. Love you! Have a good day/night! God bless! Also tomorrow is Fasika, celebrate it well! Think about the main reason why it's celebrated not just the foods! Okay bye x

FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS! FOR REAL THO :)

      So i'm back, not that you care or anything but this time i am back with a rather serious and daring topic. It might not make you smile or laugh out loud but i'm sure it's gonna mean a lot to habesha kids and hopefully you can relate to it. So here goes nothing.....

   So the main reason why i didn't post anything lately was because my grandpa passed away and i was a little down but now i have moved on with my life. As a habesha family all my mom's and dad's family came to our house to grief with us. One of those many people were my father's relative from Atlanta, they talked to me and unlike my parents they know a lot about the school system. Let me just show you how our conversation went.....

 Relative 1: so how is school going on?
 Me: It's pretty good, love it *sarcastic smile*
 Relative 2: so tell me your GPA?
 Me: I have a 3.9
 Relative 2: oh thats good! so what do you wanna be in the future?

  So me being honest i said i wanna help people who are suicidal or depressed, not sure what i'm gonna study tho. You guys should have seen their faces when i said that, relative one interrupted mme and yelled "No No No, No such thing as helping people you're gonna be a doctor. I was so shocked all i said was excuse me!? I don't wanna be a doctor!

 After that i got a two hour lecture on how i should be a doctor and how he was gonna hook me up with a medical professor, some may kill for this hook up with a professor but i don't want it. What i read in their eye was "If you don't become a doctor like most of the kids in our family we will disown you"

  A lot of other habesha kids might be in a situation where they wanna be anything but doctors and lawyers. To be honest my advise for you is be who and what you wanna be. My parents always try to use the guilt trip with me because i made it clear that i will never in my life be a doctor or a lawyer and i understand they work hard for me but at the end of the day, it's gonna be my conscience and happiness. Sacrificing your happiness for other people is not love or care, it's stupid. First be happy youself and share that happiness with the rest of the world.

 But this doesn't work if sleeping makes you happy, obviously it makes everyone happy but im not saying just sleep for the rest of your life. Do something that makes you happy whether it's in the entertainment industry or office job whatever it is do what you want. Trying to make yourself happy first is not considered selfishness.
 
Before i go i wanna tell you that i did not proof read this because it's 2 am in Toronto and i'm tired, i also typed fast so there are gonna be mistakes. If i can i will edit this tomorrow. Lastly one pf my friends shared this ebook with me and honestly it's the best book i've ever read, i highly advice you to read it. I am 100% sure you're gonna gain a lot from this book, ENJOY! Love you <3 HGB

Dating?

Okay, so I'm back. HGB is back, not that you care or you missed me. It also haven't been that long so yeah...this is a bad intro. :/ but I'm still gonna go with it cuz I can't think of anything better. The thing is, when i experience something and i'm like '' oh looks like i'm writing a blog about that, you, sir are gonna be in my next blog'', not out loud but in my thoughts. So i think about all the cool things to write, then i come on here and as soon as i see the blank page, i forget everything. I feel like the blank page is one of those pen thingies from Men In Black. You know what i'm talking about right, no? alright let me get a pic!
    

             what if this thing actually worked on you while you're reading this right now!! ohh son,

     be careful! LOL! wasn't that funny and if you haven't seen men in black im sorry

       that you have no idea what im talking about, SUCKS TO BE YOU!! jk watch it.



 

    Don't worry my blog isn't about ADD or Men In Black, it's about something else but at this point i forgot about it. Give me 5 minutes and I'll remember. If you said ''OMG HGB why don't you just read the title, so dumb!'' um yeah i would but i didn't write the title yet, so screw you and It actually took me two minutes. It's about DATING. yes dating, more specifically habesha dating. Since you guys didn't give me any suggestions, i wrote this. So Read it and LOL or not, whatever you want but share it! please, if you don't share it you won't get a gift for Christmas cuz HGB works with Santa! JK, just share it dawg! Kay ENJOWI!!

 
    So you're probably tired about this issue but I'm not going to diss you guys and tell you that dating is bad and you shouldn't date. Me personally i don't date, I'm 17,18 or 19 and i just don't think I'm mature enough to date. I'm kinda stupid so i don't do that ish! You can date whenever you want for all i care, but i can't let you be like white folks where they start dating in 6th grade and have sex in 7th grade, that's just straight up BS and disgusting. (I love white people by the way, No hate!)
   

Shoutouts to you if you read that in raven's voice, if you

ever watched the show that is.

     I know a lot of kids that date when they're 16 or 15 if they don't hanky panky i don't mind. But as you know white folks are a mess and '16 and pregnant' happens. Now i am so against that, No sex before marriage. But then again, this is my opinion and there might be some people who agree and some who don't, which is cool cuz deep down i know that you know sex before marriage is wrong.

 

    I think it's really cute when i see teen couple walk around holding hands and looking like a puppy in love, blushing and ish, it's adorable but when they want to conceive their child in front of me and start making out now i don't like that, too much public affection! Let's keep it PG 13 at least in public. I don't want to see how a child is made, i already learnt about it and i don't need experiment. Relax your uterus and hormones please!So it would be really swell if you keep your making out face out of my way. Kay Thanks!

    

JK, i won't miss you!

For me the funniest type of teen couple are the ones who pretend they're not dating when they see someone who they know in public. You know those hide and seeks they play in the mall. Let's say they are walking in the mall or on the road and they're holding hands and cuddling while freaking walking but then they see one of their uncle, that one cousin or something like that who likes to gossip a lot or worst of all her older brother who is over protective and then the hide and seek begins now! May the seek be over in their favor! what up hunger games reference!







                                  

first they were like this, imagine they're walking and

in a mall

 

then this happens when they're not sure if that person they saw

is actually someone they know.

 

when they're sure and the person is approaching them

and getting closer

 

when the person is 5 feet close LOL!

 

The struggle is so real, LOLOL! I feel soo bad for them, either one of them ends up getting hurt or brusied! What i'm trying to say is if you have a chill mom which is a really rare species in the habesha community, tell them about it and be honest if not i'm sorry i have no solution for you. Have fun and date if you want but be careful and safe. Don't feel weird if you haven't dated for a long time or never had a boyfriend or girlfriend, that's totally normal and there is time for everything! I really hope that made you smile and i love you, share it and also like my facebook page, it's Habesha Girl Blogging. Hope you have an amazing day, night wherever you are. Smile <3

 

  P.S every 'ish' in this blog is sh*t, if you didn't get it. i think it's a Toronto slang or my slang!

 

 

School sucks!!! HGB to the rescue!!

 Before i start i'm not just gonna talk crap about school, i think learning is an essential thing but i have good reasons why school sucks, sometimes. so i hope you can relate to my rant and thanks for reading!  Not gonna state if i'm in highschool or college, i'm gonna leave that to your imagination! Kay ENJOWI!!!
   

 

  I think school should place kids in the major they wanna take when they go to college, and there are also people who don't wanna go to college.  If i wanna major in Biology for college how about you teach me something that can help me, same goes for every major. If i wanna study Biology, why the Eff would i need to know what the radius of the sun is or how fast light travels!? how about we leave that to the physics majors, kay thanks. *flips hair*

 

    

 

 

 Generally for everyone how about you teach us real life skills, especially to the kids who are not going to college after highschool. Teach me how to loan money for college since school is f***ing expensive, teach me how to write a check, how to calculate my taxes and all that real world stuff. On another note i think homework is stupid!! We have to stay in school for 8 hours(for some people) and on top of that you wanna add homework!?!?!? Just wait for my slap stupid!

 

   

i'm habesha so my slap is gonna bruise you Lil' mofo! My hand

print is gonna stay on your face for days!!! BIATCH!

 

 Just a little reminder that me, as a habesha daughter my parents EXPECT me to get a scholarship. I don't mind their expectation but i suggested that we should have a plan B to loan money if i don't happen to get a scholarship. But some MAD threats went down just because i thought that i might not get a scholarship.  The reminder plus threat everyday i get from my Mom is so effing annoying and a lot of pressure. And i don't work well under pressure and stress!!!

    

One of the enlightening conversations i had with my

mom not so long ago!

 

 I hate when habesha parents use their past to make me feel bad. I know that you work hard and you didn't have most of the things i have right now and i feel blessed, i'm not disrespecting you but telling me that every f***ing day isn't gonna help me!! it's annoying! i will try my best and what happens will happen! 

  

see what i did there LOL!!! 

 

 Please cut us some slack! school is not easy, it's really stressful but we'll try our best!  I probably should've kept it PG but i didn't so deal with it! share this with someone, SHARING IS CARING! and you love me, hope you do! cuz i love you!

 

hope you can see my efforts if not that's okay, i guess! but hey check

out my facebook page Habesha Girl Blogging! and like me and

all that good stuff!

 

I'm gonna finish my blog with a funny picture one of my friends sent me, i'm still laughing at it!! LMAO!!

 









Idiots On Facebook

 Whenever i write my blogs i don't just write it based on lies. Chances are if i experience something, you do too, so i hope some of you can relate to this blog and the remaining people who can't relate, hope you smile or laugh! kay ENJOWI!!
   So here's something that happens to me on weekly bases. Some of you might not think i'm a real person but i am, i'm a Habesha girl who happens to live in Toronto and just because of that there are some boys who try to holla at me from the beautiful Homeland Ethiopia.
   

with their broken english!!



I can say this confidently because this happens not only with me but with my home girls too. And to be honest most of the time i don't understand what they are trying to say. Not being Judgmental or making fun of people back home but their English is like an abstract art for me, and i suck at seeing abstract art.

                                     



        what is that even saying!? i am more confused than a chameleon in a skittle bag! oh habesha people! I'm just sitting there trying to crack the code and then when i realize what it means i'm like

     

                



 If you're a guy you might say ''but there are cute, boys like me who are not a creeper with a good english'' or just think '' hey yo man HGB(habesha girl blogging) sucks, i bet she looks ugly'' but whatever we'll go with the first thought. You are right there are cute guys on facebook but i ain't trying to start love on facebook, ain't nobody got time for that! I don't even know half the people on my friend list. What i am trying to say is stop using facebook to start a relationship it's not an online dating site, amedam!The study i just made up now states that 2 in a 100 people that started a relationship on facebook works. So just don't be nefez and stop doing it! Stop hollering on girls using facebook, some girls like me get creeped out. Boys who live outside the Motherland, messeging me saying ''I got my eyes on you'' is not cute, its stalkerish. if you're gonna holler use good pickup lines. (see what i did there, used a drake reference SON!!, even tho i haven't listened to the whole song)

       sorry this blog was short but i have 2 exams tomorrow and i have to study. but i hope you enjoyed it, i love you, i hope you have a good day, night wherever you are.SMILE!! I promise to make my next post longer! i pinky promise!!  HGB <3

    P.S- If you have anything you want me to write about anything, it doesn't necessarly have to be related to habesha stuff or if you want to give me CONSTRUCTIVE CRITISISM you can comment below or if you just wanna say hi and give me a comment on anything or need advice you can email me at habeshagirlblogging@gmail.com i don't guarantee my advice will work because im stupid, but i will try my best for you! On that note, Yo like my page on facebook dawg! Its Habesha Girl Blogging!  share this with one of your amedam friend <3

            

Habesha Parents

Habesha Parents *sigh*, the most amazing, annoying, loving parents ever. so for my first blog im gonna do a play by play of what happens in a habesha house hold. if you're habesha or eritriean get ready to be all like ''OMG, i know right i can totally relate to this'' and if you're not habesha get ready to be all like

                                                         ''sucks to be you guys!!!''

  so let's go to the first scenario, you're at home with your mom or dad and they say *insert your name here* ''leje, come here''.
you: yeah, mom
parent: ''esti, give me that remote'' (the remote is like so close to them, if they streched their hand they could get it)
you: you called me for this, its near you ema! but you give them the remote, and continue mumbling to yourself.
parent: ''kids these days have no respect, how dare you talk  back to me, you little brat!!''
you: it's right there, you could've got it yourself, i was doing something
parents: ''what did you say to me?''
     

 *slap*

  you go to your room, rubbing your cheeks. habesha parents will call you from anywhere so you can hand them something near them. even if you are not at the house, you can be in korea, even in another  country they'll call you.  i might have exaggerated a little, but it might happen to some of us.

  Next scenario is so like you're sitting with your mom and the phone rings and you go to pick it up. it turns out that the person who called was your moms friend or some relative and you say hi and that good stuff, then they ask if you're mom is there. you look at your mom and shes like ''im not here, im sleeping,  im out of town yelehum''. so you get confused and say '' she's not here, no wait she's sleeping, i mean she's out of town''. so now since you messed up your mom has to talk to her friend and tell her that you're delusional cuz you just woke up. but after the phone call this is gonna be your mom 
     

''somebody going to get hurt real bad'' and that somebody is gonna be you!!

 Third scenario this is a big one, especially if you live out of Ethiopia! so you're chillin with your friends and all of you seciide youre gonna have a sleep over. you go home and ask youre parents if you can go to that sleepover and this happens.
             

This is not the only questions you are gonna get, some more questions and maybe a slap!

  These are not the only things i could come up with, lets just say this is part one. i hope you liked it since it's my first blog. share it and comment and talk to me, i have no friends. much Love, from habesha girl blogging to you <3 even tho i wrote this blog, i love my parents very much, they are the best. this is just for fun, don't go judging me but this is the truth.
