Farshe is translated to mattress. This club is supposedly full this year because as mentioned earlier, every Lebanese should be at home. The farshe club is home-away-from-home. It is as cozy and warm as our homes. We lay and binge watch Netflix or the shows on TV. So who spent the first day of 2021 at farshe club?

2. I made a list with my 2021 goals!

This is literally a recycled list which is made every single year in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and even 2016. It includes to-do tasks like: losing weight, hitting the gym more often, giving up bad habits, saving money, etc. Many surveys suggest that nearly every person creates this list but it never lasts beyond February i.e. the second month of the year.

3. Yen’ad aalaykoun!

This is translated to “May it re-iterate to you” and it usually has a positive attribution such that when it said, it is like wishing the other person happiness. But, this year, we may not want to hear it because 2020 was one of the most unfortunate years that has ever passed. So, we would not want to re-iterate 2020. Nevertheless, we still say it and hear it.

4. I’ve been asleep for a year.
