Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.

What the hell did I have in my closet? I couldn’t stand the sight of winter clothes mixed with summer clothes, and all these other pieces of clothing I haven’t worn in years! So what did I do? TOOK EVERYTHING out of my closet and discovered I had a boutique of vintage clothes!

I got rid of 20% of my clothes just now. I put them in huge garbage bags so we can send them out for donations. I haven’t worked this hard physically or mentality in like, “FOREVER!” I feel that I have used up 2 hours of my life to actually DO something! :grr:

It’s the never ending question. la la la. It goes on and on my friend. la la la.

I honestly don’t understand people in this world of mine. I think it has to do with the cultural one sided perception of how I have to be and how my life is in Canada. I remember a few years back when I was in my early 20′s and all I heard from Arabic girls was that guys back home think they are bad, rude, and have no morals because they live in the Western world. That I didn’t understand because I am always the girl who is stuck in the middle of it all. I don’t really care much about the Western world I live in, nor do I care much about the Arabic world which I came from. I just live my life normally and I never segregate my self to any group. I love all kinds of people.

Why can’t people understand that?

I think the biggest problem is this word rebellious that people don’t understand. This oxymoron phrase that I used for my site that is a complete outrage. Instead of reading and trying to understand, they make absolute illogical judgments and expect me to take their questions seriously.

Today’s question which was like yesterdays and every other month in the past is:

“Why you say you are just Arabic, aren’t you Muslim too? Why don’t you say that!”

I used to have a problem with people saying that since I am Palestenian that I HAVE to talk about Palestine. Now this never ending question. People question my religion. That’s your choice. Honestly I don’t have to preach about my religion or say every other day, “since I am Muslim but rebellious I should be going to hell,” just to satisfy your perception of me. No, I am Muslim and I follow Islam and I honestly keep religion to my self. That’s HOW it is supposed to be!

Since you people insist that I should talk about my life as an Arabic-Palestenian-Muslim girl in Canada, then here are my words of wisdom for the day:

“THOU SHALL NOT SEARCH FOR ARABIC GIRL PORN ON THY SITE THEN ASK WHAT THY RELIGION IS AND HOW LIFE IS IN THE WESTERN WORLD FOR A MUSLIM ARABIC GIRL! I CONDEMN THOU TO HELL THOU FOOLS! BURN BABY BURN!”

I could have just said, “fuck you” instead, but it is sacrilegious and so rebellious! However, I didn’t want to give the wrong impression. :think: That is so NOT me.
