Well.. today is Eid el Adha. It’s celebrated after the 10 day pilgrimage around Mecca. It’s a quieter holiday I believe. But in this part of the world, it is eid and time to celebrate. Eid this year came in a perfect time. Holiday time and weekend! It’s nice. My mom made cookies (ma3mool and ka3k).. Some with dates and pistachios and walnuts. It’s all good.
Other than that.. I am hoping it is a quiet day.
I already got made fun of in the past 10 minutes. Go figure. I think I will just stay in my room for today. Watch movies and enjoy quiet time. I need quiet time! Alone time!

My name is Mona and I am an internet savvy and technology obsessed girl. I am originally Palestinian and I live in the province of Ontario in Canada. That's some info about me, and you can learn more [

In other words, gossip. Ladies and gentleman, tonight I shall discuss the biggest sin known to man, gossip. Since I am an Arab representative, and I tend to speak on behalf of Arab ideology, I will not reiterate that again today, ... [
... Love, it is such an obscure concept in a male oriented culture. I noticed that some Arab men believe in love, and others, well, if the girl is not like his mother, he will never ever love her. [
... So Arabs don’t discuss love at all? It is forbidden? Are Arabs so secretive? Or is it a blasphmey to even discuss it? You know what the problem is with Arabs and love? The problem is that they don’t know how to love someone before they get married to them. [
A girl this morning asked me by email about living a double life in an Arabic culture. The cause and reasoning of why this thing is quite common within Arab societies. Especially for us that live here in the western world. [
