On the drive home
When driving back from the mall today, all I could hear were the inhaling and exhaling of my dear old grandma. She was sitting in the front seat of our crappy ‘86 Mercedes; the sound of the engine was running loud enough, the tires hitting the asphalt made a humming noise, yet all my ears could pick out was her breathing. I love my grandma, she’s cute and old and gives old lady kisses....

Let's Fly
I’m so going to write a poem right now because I feel like it, Ehemm:
Let’s fly
Let’s go to the moon and back,
Let’s be spontaneous
Let’s play hide a & seek in pitch black,
Let’s swim
Let’s dump our worries in the deep blue,
Let’s share
Let’s tell each other “I love you.”
We’ll be one in the night lit grass...

Christmas Break Plans(?)
I don’t usually make them, unlike the rest of society tends to do; therefore, I think I should attempt to make a list.
-Go to church with Jordan
-Hang out with Danny.. after he fixes his messed up tire
-Hang out at least five times with Elyse
-Give back to the community, somehow
-Apply for FAFSA
-Feel less stressed
-Be uber happy every day
-Get lost, but not literally
-Catch up...
To wonder what cycles are, and what attributes they contain. They gives us the chance for a change, a chance to allow us to be renewed. It gives us the opportunity to look back, to only see a thick fog rolling across our memories as a result of starting out fresh. Cycles. They allow so much good to come into our lives, but can we accept them? To accept them is to accept change, to accept...

Letting it out.
I would like to speak on behalf of teenage girls when I say, even if you think we are not interested in guys or somehow seem to be interested in other things, we have the capability to keep it all in. However, I am now letting it all out. I have no clue if any of you ladies have felt this way before, but it’s such a sticky situation.. yet, there is something about it that seems so simple and...

EFF LISTERINE.
Okay, let’s begin with knowing that I have a 99.7 degree fever and I have a ridiculous cough (but thanks to tea, it’s temporarily disabled.. haha). I figure, “Hey Jeanette, you should brush yo teeth,” so while I was brushing away, my dad walks in. “Jeanette, you should gargle some Listerine, it is good for these colds.” My dad is Syrian, and to him.. Listerine...

Highlight(s) of my day
In my fourth period class, a student walked towards me and and gave me a glowing hot pink rectangular piece of tree! It said that I had won a nomination for Class Clown :) I thought that it was so cool people actually found me funny. Sweet! My brother was shocked, so I aimed my blow dryer at him and shot hot air at his face. I conquered, of course. Even though he unplugged it… still.

Today had to be one of the toughest days this year. I just want to escape from everyone, everything, every spec, every voice, every hope, every annoyance, every dance, every pair of eyes, every car, every lie, every confusion, every sound. Tomorrow will be a brand new day, right? I hope so, youth.
Saturday Nights
I doubt that I have anything to do tonight, unless someone magically texts/ calls me.
Why don’t people call anymore? Like, has our generation lost sense of communication through our voice boxes? Ponder about that.

The Syrian Life :)
We eat stuffed meat & rice grape leaves, we eat sheep and cow tongues, we eat raw meat called (at least this is how it sounds) ki-beh-knee-uhh, there’s the one aunt that believes she controls all of the actions of the.. young adults, we play backgammon, we don’t have an age for drinking, the men believe that: 1. the women should always be cleaning and 2. they should already have...

GLASSES?! :)
Me and my friend roamed the streets today searching for art supplies. Text on cellular device. Ahh, thy brother: your glasses are ready. GASP!
I broke my glasses on Saturday after I confirmed that the metal frames were weak. Yeah, I know. Only FOUR days later, I was able to see once again! Oh the joy that entered into my life. You’ve no idea.
What else…? Hmmm.. I want a man. hahah,...
