What I am Thankful For

Hello All,

Well, I guess that this is my first entry after my journal became private. I am listening to one of my favorite singers, Amr Diab. He is Egyptian and sings in Arabic. I used to dance to his music all the time. His voice makes me melt. This man makes me want to learn Arabic. I would love to travel to the Middle East some day. Of course I would travel with a man, I have heard stories about women that travel there alone. I would also dress very conservatively. I would love to travel to Lebanon, Egypt, Morocco and Turkey, maybe the UAE. I looked online and a flight to Beirut is over two grand on coach ! Ooh, here is a picture of who I love to dance to. This guy sings the best love songs. I looked up the translations and I guess love songs are better in languages other than English. Just my .02

Anyway, on another note all I really have to say is that I am so blessed to still be healthy. I am just happy that I am healthy and do not have to take any medications right now. I am also happy that my folks are both alive.

I don't know how much longer I have of living a healthy life. But I am so greatful for now and the healthy life I've been blessed to have. And God willing, I will be healthy in my old age. It was not a waste.

And yes, I am writing this for a reason. I got a wakeup call today that made me do some serious thinking. I know this entry is private, but I am still not ready to talk about it.

It's Finally Over

Hello There My Lovelies,

So I just got done taking my final in Legal Analysis. And I have no clue as to how I just did. The teacher had some pretty tricky questions. You know..... those questions that you know the answer to but it's worded in a way that you'll chose the wrong answer even though your train of thought is right.

I am kinda sad. I had a shot at getting an A in the class. But from today's exam I kinda doubt that. I can't feel too guilty though. What I studied was kinda different from the questions that appeared. It seemed that anything I was shaky on just happened to appear on my final. Just my luck.

Other than that I am just happy that I am out of school for the next month and a half and I'm free to go out and actually have some fun.

On another note, I was browsing Target for a new notebook for next quarter and saw the Trapper Keepers. I am a child of the eighties, remember those well. Trapper Keepers were the shit, lol. You were cool if you had one. And they were sold with a bunch of cool folders and pencils and things.

Now they just sell the binder. It's such a rip off. It's just an empty shell of a binder that is sold with the Trapper Keeper logo. What a disgrace.

Quick Entry Before Class

Hello All,

Okay, so today is August 4th. On this day I believe in 1942 Anne Frank and her family were discovered in the Secret Annex in Amsterdam and taken to the camps.

Miep Gies was the woman that hid the Franks. She is still alive today, and almost 100 !
She says that on this day, she closes the curtains, locks her door, and does not answer the phone all day. She uses the day to mourn the loss of her friends. She has been doing this for over 65 years.

She is such an incredible woman. I would give anything to have a chance to meet her. If it weren't for her, none of us would've read Anne Frank's diary.

I started reading the diary when I was in middle school. I read it again a few years ago after I bought another copy at the store at Mauthausen. I felt that I could understand her a lot more then than when I was in middle school.

I still want to visit Amsterdam very badly. When I start my career I will definitely save for it. I have never stopped dreaming about going to Amsterdam and visiting the Anne Frank House.

What most people don't realize is that Anne's real home before she moved into the Annex was on Merwedeplein 34 (I may have the wrong number). It is not open to the public, rather a safe haven for writers from other countries that come to avoid persecution. Last I heard, there was a writer from Algeria that stayed in the house. I wonder who is there now.

The last known footage of Anne Frank was her on the balcony of that house witnessing a new couple that had just gotten married.

Anyway, off to class for me. Finals are in two days.

Very Interesting Day

Hello There All,

Okay, so my day started out fine. In fact it started out quite nicely because I got my Law and Order DVDs in the mail. Now I can hibernate and watch all the episodes while I eat decadent desserts :)

Plus I also received a nice settlement check in the mail. As you all know, I used to work at Enterprise Rent A Car, or ERAC for short. I like to call it ECRAP or EFUCK, because I sure feel like that they gave it to me real bad with no lube while I worked there. Two years of my life I can't get back.

Anyway, so last year I found out that there was a class action law suit against them. A couple of former employees decided to sue the company for allegedly making them work during their breaks. Allegedly my ass, lol. I know that they did this for a fact. So, to make a long story short, I got a piece of the settlement pie.

So I decided to deposit the check and go to the mall. As I was driving in to the parking lot, I accidentaly hit the curb, and immediately got a flat tire. Turns out, the tire was ripped and the rim was all busted up as well as the panel on the rim.

I called Roadside assistance through my insurance company and this guy comes out to change my tire. Usually when I call roadside I get a guy in a professional tow truck with tools and in uniform. LOL, not this time around. The guy I get is dressed kinda sloppy and comes in his own car, with his little girlfriend in tow. Whatever, I didn't care I just needed to get my tire changed and off to work.

The guy could not get all lugnuts off the rim, and busted one of them. But hey, you know what ? He tried and he was real polite and did what he could. As he was about to write me a receipt, this silver truck pulls in to park. She tries to park next to this nice Audi and ends up hitting it. Real bad dent job she gave it. I see her try to pull back out, so I walk towards her. When she saw that I was looking at her, she immediately pulled away. I bet she thought she was so lucky................

But what she didn't know was that I had lasik and I can easily read and memorize license plate numbers. I got the plate number and shouted it to the tow truck guy who wrote it down. I then called the police and made a report. When the guy came back out I gave him all the information. I felt bad for him, it was his sister's car.

As for that girl that hit the car, I hope that the cops show up at her door.

I did get my tire fixed, but it costed me a buttload of money since I had to replace the prettymuch the whole thing. It costed me almost all of my settlement check. I was kinda sad. :(  I also was a couple of hours late for work.

But at least I will be more careful as not to hit anymore curbs.............
