It shocks me how so many things that I believed were true,pillars upon which I built my faith, have been wrecked and made into powder for me to quench my thirst with.
What I mean to say is that this world we live in, this age that seems to proceed with madness and havoc, have taken away many of my core principles. I’m guessing many other people’s as well.

Everyday I find out that I’m such a different person from what I had perviously thought myself to be. Perhaps I’m ever-changing. Perhaps I don’t really know who I am. Does anyone “really” know who he/she is? Every minute we are faced with new situations,novel problems,critical decision-requiring moments. The way we handle these reveals,I believe, what we are made of. Sometimes it’s not even clear why we might prefer one course of action to another,why we do something and never dare to do another.

They killed a great man. Al-Hariri wasn’t just anybody. He was a river of generosity and wisdom. I salute his soul whereever it may be. Blessed be the faithful and the patriotic! May his shattered flesh embrace his winged spirit and rest in peace.

Hear that sound? Tololy is BACK, better, stronger, and wilder than ever.

so what have I been up to lately? I had my finals after a crazy semester during which I did some KILLER CRAZY things, I just unleashed myself. But reflecting on that now, I think there were certain things that I shouldn’t have done.. but I did them anyway and there’s no going back, so cheerio I love myself. No regrets baby. never.

my finals were : loooooonnnngggg… I lost 4 kgs coz when I get so much into something I actually forget to eat or don’t feel like it, and I was so absorbed in trying to achieve my goal that I totally let myself go. My goal was to get 6 straight A’s and then kick someone’s ass, and I was true to myself and I did it. YEAH I got 6 A’s!!!! I’m so proud of myself coz I worked hard to get those babies and I got my GPA as high as it was before that airhead jerko Waleed 3attari messed with it unjustly. Waleed hun, vai al diavolo! I proved to YOU and to EVERYONE that u r just crap run over twice. u don’t run my life, and u can’t make me flinch. u stupidity only made me stronger, and I shall waste the likes of your sorry ass till the day i die. Amen.

I received Flat Stanely from my niece, Jude… during my finals, and I actually went to Karak and the Dead Sea and took him on a tour and showed him around DURING my finals. I’m nuts. I also created a friend for him, Flat Ali. hehehehe it was so thrilling for me to know that Jude picked me to receive her Stanely so I was determined to make her little heart so happy when she gets him back. After the tour I had 2 exams waiting for me, one of them was Translation ( Italian - English ) but It was piss. Even though everybody was literally staring at me and whispering things when I handed my paper, that’s coz I handed it 40 minutes after I had started writing. Always the first to hand in an exam paper. But seriously now,the exam wasn’t half as hard as I had expected it to be thanks to our professor’s scary speeches. And still,they stayed in there forever. It’s strange.

After the finals I just wanted to kick back and relax, and gain some color in my face. My off days were swell. I went to Aqaba and it was brilliant! it was snowing and raining here in Amman but down there it was absolutely awesome! I showed Stanely around and got ready to send him back to Michigan. When the pictures were ready I sent him off via DHL coz let’s face it, together now we say : Snail Mail kills. My sis sent us the “original” Flat Stanely and it never got here. I just couldn’t risk bumming Jude on March 1st.!!!

I went out shopping bla bla went out with friends, had a good time and a good laugh. Then I went book shopping YIPPEEEEEEE! I just LOVE books. I love book shopping, it so tempts me. It’s my sin. I lose myself when I step into a book shop, It seems as though I have this thirst that my eyes and fingers desire to quench by examining every book within reach and lusting over it.

I’m reading The Odyssey now, I can’t wait till I finish it so that I can move on. I don’t like reading two books simultaneously, I feel like I don’t give each its proper right of reading rituals. I bought “A woman of no importance” by Wilde, and ” Dracula” by Bram Stoker. This is the real deal.

It’s been forever since I last blurted something… hmmm… not much happening I’m just not in the mood to write something and go all “deep” and “sophisticated”…

I got my nose pierced ..Jan 7th… I didn’t ask for my parents’ permission and I ignored everything everyone told me ..Nobody supported my decision.. not even my sisters or friends. I was on my own. and I did it.

I’m totally loving my new sparkly objects! loving the third hole in my nostril and loving myself for having the guts to do something I wanted to do, and ignore EVERYONE.
