Zip lining and other things I wish I could do this summer
Hello and welcome to my blog. I’m in such a state right now about how unfair society is, especially to girls who wear a hijab. My sister in law called me today and told me we will be going to this place that has zip lining, sky walking, wall climbing, and such activities.

Storytime: I don’t know what I’m thinking
I’m supposed to write my thoughts down. Says who, right? I take my self-improvement apps seriously, and I know I may be overwhelming myself by using too many apps, but it’s supposed to motivate me, not paralyze me. In my defense, it’s the weekend, so my days are usually crazy whenever I leave the house. […]

A rant: Women in Lebanon have little freedom
Disclaimer: this is not a generalization. I’m speaking only of my experience. Some women in Lebanon have lenient husbands or fathers who give them the freedom to do as they wish. I grew up in a very religious household. My dad didn’t let me visit my friends. I could call them on the landline but […]

Storytime: Homework, pain, and 3 positive things
Hello and welcome to my blog. I’m struggling to be positive right now, so despite my pain, I’ll recall 3 positive things about today. 1. It’s Wednesday, my favorite day of the week because it’s in the middle and I’m a fan of all things symmetrical. 2. I got almost everything on my to-do list […]

Storytime: When will this pandemic end?
Hello and welcome to my blog! So I tried this themed thing and I think it has pulled the plug on my creativity and originality and spontaneity. My impulsive nature is a bad thing when it comes to problem solving and conflict resolution, but it comes in handy when I’m writing. I wanted to get […]

Storytime: I’m fine
Nobody: Absolutely nobody: Me: In case you’re wondering how my day is going, I just broke down into tears an hour ago during my son’s French class because the teacher asked him a question in French, he froze, and I kept telling him to answer, and the teacher could hear me, and he kept looking […]

Storytime: Day 3 of total lockdown
It’s day 3 of the total lockdown and I’m telling you it’s hard. Not because I’m not getting much of my goals done. Not because I can’t leave the house. Not because I’m moody and keep trying to tell myself “I am calm and in control of my emotions”. But because I have to walk […]

Storytime: Looks like we’re stuck with e-learning
Hello 👋 reader and welcome to my blog! How are you doing today? Do you have any kids who are e-learning? How’s it going for you? I’ll tell you how it’s going for me. IT’S GOING FREAKING GREAT! I’m being sarcastic, of course. I do understand that learning online is better than not learning at […]

The psychology behind the flinstones and other shows
There are a lot of shows that I used to watch as a kid, sorry as a teenager (my parents didn’t let us start watching tv until I was 13) that I used to love. Looking back, I realize that most of these shows are messed up. Disney, for starters, is not suitable for children. […]

Blacklisted
I had an anxiety attack today. Then I did meditation and felt better. Then I had a panic attack. I started shaking and crying and I couldn’t breathe and my heart was pounding in my chest. I’m still suffering from the remnants of the panic attack. It drained all my energy, though, and now I […]
