King Arther

I was watching the movie "King Arther" for like the 10th time a few nights ago.It's one of my favorite movies,i mean,the story is great,and so are the characters(good looking male actors,hehe) and the setting,you name it!I have to admit however,the part i love the most is that there are actual "MEN" in this movie...men who still appreciate love and romance,men who fight for a cause,and men who even fear death,and yet would do anything for their freedom..

The reason why I'm mentioning this,is I look around,and at least in my university,I don't know "men",the macho type lets say.I mean,sure,perhaps they do exist,but honestly speaking,i haven't seen ANY!its sad,isn't it?I gotta admit though,I have great male friends,but they're just "guys",know what I mean?

I was discussing this with one of my "male friends" and he accused me of apparently being a dreamer and told me to "get real".We grow up watching Disney movies believing that anything is possible.I remember believing that i would become a fairy or a mermaid if i stayed good(wild imagination if u ask me),but i also remember that Snow White,Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty had actual men fighting for them,so don't you think its sad that Disney is basically showing us what could have been,what men actually used to be a long time ago(or so history says),and yet there's a guy telling me to "get real"???Is how you're hair looks today really more important than what's inside you're heart??

I pride myself on being a girl who always fights to get what she wants,and usually i do earn it,so yes,i am a dreamer and proud of it too.I wanna end up married to that kinda man,and who knows...Tinkerbell might sprinkle some pixie dust on me,and I'd fly to chase my dreams...who knows indeed.

Music talk

I consider myself some sort of a "music freak",if such a thing actually exists.Alot of people are shocked that I enjoy English music more than Arabic,which should be the case since I live in Jordan,my beloved country.Maybe the influence came from my mom (she's American),because growing up I remember her always having the radio on,English music channel of course,and singing along.

Anyway,to get to my point,I recommend Avant's song "lie about us".You see,I really find the lyrics to be annoying!I mean,no one wants to find themselves in this love triangle!You have this guy with this terrific girlfriend that loves him alot,and then he just finds a new girl that also loves him and he loves her back!Now he wants to leave his girlfriend to get with the other girl officially but he doesn't want to break his girlfriend's heart,yet the other girl says she's just tired of waiting for him!Life's just not fair,if falling in love was only a choice...

Another song that's really good is "It's not over" for Chris Daughtry.I've been a fan of this guy since he appeared on American Idol,the lyrics are amazing and so is the music,not to mention his voice.

Last song i would like to mention is called "just like a star" for Corinne Bailey Rae.How can i describe this song?Let's see...its a song you put on when the weather is really cold,preferably raining,and you're home alone,you don't feel like going out,so you just sit by the fireplace,wrapped in a warm blanket,drinking some hot chocolate,and deep in thought about your life...where its going...your future...

That's it for now I guess,this is why I love this web page of mine,I felt to write my thoughts with no conditions,meaningless perhaps to some,yet for me,i like the idea of writing about nothing and absolutely everything...hehe.

later...peace.

Discovery

Its new year's eve,and I was watching the video for Saddam Hussein's execution,believe it or not this is how I found out about this website,apparently when you finish watching the video,you can choose to post it on your "blog".Now since i had no idea what a blog is,i found the website,did the quick tour that is offered,and thought,what the hell!I never kept a diary or wrote down my thoughts so why not...

I firmly do believe that politics is dirty,and I would like to think that most people agree.I also know for a fact that its dangerous,so I don't really like to discuss it,but just for a brief moment,please allow me to mention this:my life has never been affected neither negatively nor positively by Iraq's former president Saddam Hussein,so I wont be giving you this long speech about my political opinion...blah blah blah,I will,however say that its not right under any circumstance to execute someone on the first day of Eid,nor is it OK to do it on Christmas day or any other religious holiday for that matter...I'll leave it at that.May God have mercy on every body's soul,Amen.(Inna lelah wa inna elayhi raje'oon).

On a brighter note,goodbye 2006!!!I mean,don't get me wrong,I wouldn't categorize it as an awful year really,but it wasn't the best either.IF i had to choose the worst thing that probably happened to me it would be depression.For 2 months i suffered from serious depression for no reason i can think of,and living here (as in this particular country),i couldn't really go up to my parents and be all like "yo!ma,pops,I'm seriously depressed y'all,need some professional help!"hehehe,just thinking about my parent's reaction is purely comical.It's also my dad's birthday today,so usually,we take him out to dinner to one of his favorite retraunts,but since he and my mom had a very stupid fight last night,we're stuck at home,yay for us!

Hmm,funny bunch of issues to mention on my first blog,but oh well,its a start i guess.I'll stop here for now,I don't know when my next blog will be posted,but hopefully soon enough.
Here's to 2007,cheers everybody!
