Animals just love me…

Ok, so I haven’t posted anything in a while, so I need to get you guys all caught up. I went back home to Dallas this weekend and took a lot of things with me, that way I don’t have a million things to take back at the end of the semester. I got to spend some nice, quality time with my mommy and sister.

Monday came, and nothing too exciting happened…it was just another one of those days when I wake up about a half an hour before class starts, and one of my suite mate’s has gotten a hold of the bathroom before me, and stay in there for hours!…so then I can’t get ready, and am unable to go to class…but then a friend told me that our class was cancelled so I was like “THANK YOU JESUS!”…because I had to talk about a poem that day, so I was afraid the professor would hate me because I didn’t go to class…but I mean, who would want to go to class with a pillowhead, morning breath, and all other sorts of disgustingness…I certainly wouldn’t!

Yesterday, well…yesterday was amazing except for one tiny detail…A BIRD POOPED ON MY HEAD! I was just sitting outside, enjoying nature with a group of friends, when I felt something land on my head; I honestly thought it was just a bug, but then some guy goes, “dude, you’ve got bird sh!@ on your head”….and I was in shock at that point; my jaw dropped in shock immediately after that point. After a good minute of just sitting there in shock, I decided to go to my dorm and take a shower…luckily, I was right outside my dorm building, so I didn’t have to humiliate myself even more by walking across campus with bird poop on my head or something…I’ve heard that having a bird poop on you is good luck, I don’t see what is lucky about that though; I mean, I guess I am “lucky” enough to have a bird think of my head as being worthy of his poop…who knows…maybe today will be fantastic!

انا احب الموسيقى من جميع انحاء العالم

You guys might be wondering what the title of this post says; it says “I love music from all over the world.” I have always liked music in general, but not many people, except for some really close friends of mine know that I love Arabic music.

I don’t know exactly at what point in time I started liking Arabic music, but I love it! I just remember listening to a song one day, and getting hooked. I think one reason why I love listening to this kind of music is because I get to hear a different country’s musical culture; I like hearing all the different kinds of instruments they use in their music, like the Riq, Oud, Qanun, Buzuq, Nay, and Violin. People may think I am weird because I love listening to all sorts of music, but it doesn’t bother me, because that is what makes me a unique individual. I mean, who wants to be normal anyway?! I certainly don’t!

As I am writing this post, I am listening to some Arabic Music; and I completely feel as if I have escaped into a completely different world…which is amazing! I am so fascinated with the Arab world that I even decided that I want to learn to speak Arabic myself. I know it will take years for me to be able to speak it fluently because it is said to be one of the hardest languages to learn in the world; but I am up for the challenge, pahaha! Sadly, the only phrases I know how to say right now are: “Hello” “Father” “The girl is drinking” “The boy is drinking” “The girl is running” and “The boy is running”…BUT that is a start haha…anyway, I will leave you guys listening to an Arabic song, hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do! :)

Hever! I know this isn't a question but your blog rocks :) just wanted to let you know.

haha thanks! I love your blog as well!! =) I just finished reading the ranting session you wrote down :P
