Blah Blah, Random Thoughts

I saw this video in the news on Arabic TV. I don’t understand why men in Saudi Arabia think this is a sport or hobby to do in the streets. Would you dare do this from your car? I am sure it is illegal here because it is DANGEROUS!

Funny, Idiots, Video, Whatever!

Who said that I needed a job to get my own office? :whee:

Categorize this!, Funny, Random Thoughts

I have been getting many comments from people who randomly arrive on my site who read some of my old articles. That’s fine and great. However, a lot of people just get mad at something I said a year or two ago, and then think I am so closed minded for speaking about issues that concern my culture only and seem odd and not normal to everyone else’s. They state that I am not being an open minded person and so Arabic and that’s why I speak the way I am and think I am “rebellious,” and that’s not what a TRUE rebel person should be.

Ok, fine! Think what you like. I am not going to start talking about true “rebellious” issues that don’t concern me as an Arab. I will however, talk about issues that make me wonder why Arabs act upon them and it is not part of the way they were raised. We are a conservative culture, we cannot deny that. That does not make me closed minded! So I don’t understand why non-Arabs cannot understand that? This site is about a Rebellious Arab Girl and not Rebellious Girl.

Angry, Blah Blah, They said what?, Whatever!

I am giving out a book titled: Girls Of Riyadh by Rajaa Alsanea. It’s a great book. It is written as a series of emails to one another to an online forum/group of the stories of four Saudi girls. If you are interested in knowing a bit more about the Saudi girls way of living, then you will learn a lot about it! You will definetly enjoy it!
