Trying to kill time..





Good evening readers,
Unfortuantly I have some free months off, and I'm really bored! I need to keep myself busy. I want to make a difference in my life, something that will keep me proud of it. I need motivation, inspiration and most importantly SUPPORT.
Is there anything to do? Anything?

Nowadays I'm reading Memoirs and Biographies, recently I just finished reading a memoir called "I Am Nujood, Age 10 and Divorced" . The title was eye catching, I couldn't believe at age 10 and divorced. I was curious, once I held the book.. it was hard to let go of it. A true amazing book.
A recommended book to read, It's about a girl (Nujood) she's from Yemen.
Thats all I'm going to say, You need to read it. Another fact, Nujood Ali was the GLAMOUR MAGAZINE Women of the Year, along with Hillary Clinton,Nicole Kidman and much more.

After reading the book, I was inspired to read loads of Memoirs. First thing I did, I went to amazon.com and searched for recommended memoires. The next I did, a took a cab and went to Virgin store. Another book that catched my eyes from its title 'Married to a Bedouin' - the cover was unusual but also curious. Unfortuantly I hadn't had time to read it cause I've recently also been watch films BASED ON A TRUE STORY.
'Changeling' was based on a true story. Starring Angelina Jolie (nominated for an Oscar) I was shocked, I never thought that Angelina would pull of Drama, Although I still didnt watched SALT.
Another TRUE STORY...

'Marie Antoinette' - Starring Kristin Dunst (won for Best Costume), It's about the last Queen who lived in Varseille palace, before the rebellion. Also shocked that Kristin Dunst is able to ACT! One of Marie Antoinette famous quotes, The people can't afford bread, "Let them eat Cake". RECOMMENDED.

OSAMA- another true story, a foreign film. The setting in Afghanistan, in Tailiban. Where as you know,Taliban are very conservative. Women can't go out alone without a man, so her daughter shaves her head and pretend she's a boy so she could work and bring back money home. RECOMMENDED.

I've also watched a INSPIRING Documentary, "Im going to tell you a Secret" by Madonna. shot in 2004, during her Reinvention Tour. Mostly it talks about peace, racism and the world! We need peace! A truely inspired documentary. I really loved it, every minute of it. RECOMMENDED. A must watch documentary.

Alright, seems like I wrote alot.. way alot. I'm off to busy myself with something. Probably a film or a book.
If you're reading this & theres something I can do to keep myself busy. Feel free to post.
Good night readers!

EID MUBARAK!


Good morning readers!
To all the muslims out there, Eidkum Embarak! After a 30 days of the holy month of Ramadhan, which I'm going to miss. Although this year it wasn't as it used to be. Unfortuantly my brothers were not with us this year, so the table was kinda full.. of food with empty chairs. Moving on.....
As I mentioned I'm currently out of Kuwait, I'm in Lebanon for two weeks.
Honestly, it feels like no eid around here, wheres the spirit!? I miss the Eid songs & programmes! I mostly miss Mohammed Shafeeq cake! The chocolate cake & the white fruit cake <3! It better be waiting for me when I'm back in Kuwait.
Eid is about family gathering & good times, well to me its all about M O N E Y :p Although still hadn't got any Eeediya..

First day of Eid,
Slept the whole day, later went to ABC Ashrafiya mall. Suppossed to go to Solidier Blv. but it got late out here & don't forget to try NANDOS <3 which I'm officially in love with it! Who's into Spices & sauces?! Well, I AM!

It's getting late out here, almost 6:00 AM. I'll be back tommorrow & I shall upload the eyes of Lebanon!
Good night! & Eid Mubarak!
