yesterday my lovely sister and i were talking late at night about how opposite we are from each other. We really are opposites, like polar opposites!

sister = chocolate lover , me = don’t give a care for it

sister = quite, me = loud

sister = short, me= tall

sister= nice, me= eh, i have my moments

sister=introvert , me=extrovert

got the idea ? so while we were talking i said to her

“do you know that mom and dad like you more than me“

sis: can you blame them

me: well excuse me for not being miss perfect

sis: you should try it sometime, it really is satisfying

me: no, thanks. for i, sis, like to have fun but seriously though, don’t you find them liking you more than me

sis: well, remember what you did last year? i mean come on 3tho (thats what she calls me *blushes* how embarrassing) i would probably think you’re adopted

me: that kinda hurt

what she was talking about was my not-so-smart plan of skipping school. Yep, i skipped school. Hold on, i had a perfectly good logical explanation as to why i did skip school.

It was the night before Winter break, i had just came out of my room and was heading toward my mom’s room with a speech i had rehearsed at my room beforehand.

I knocked at the door

mom: come in

me: mom is dad there?

mom: no

me (whispering to self): yeeeeees! (my speech was more mother oriented, I didn’t make a father one )

me: mom i have a proposition for you

mom: oh?

me: yes. Before i start talking i want you to listen to me the whole entire time and don’t jump to conclusions until i’m done ok? oh and don’t you give me that infamous look of yours when you raise on eye brow and thin your lips

mom (gives me the look): get on with it

me: *deep breath* mom i want to stay home tomorrow because-

mom: NO!

me: but i didn’t even say why!!

mom: i don’t care. you are going!

me: mother! listen to me!

mom: go on, but my answer is still no (oh don’t you hate when people say that? :@ )

me: mom, if i go tomorrow i will be the only kid at my school! NO ONE shows up the day before Christmas break. its engraved in the teenage handbook

mom: 3thog 7abibty its good that you are the only kid there

me: eh?

mom: your teachers will be impressed by you

me: heeeeeeeelll no!

mom: don’t you cuss

me: fine! Heeeeeeeeeck no!

mom: don’t use that either

me: its not a curse word

mom: it is in my book

me: whatever! mom my teachers wouldn’t be impressed by me instead they will hate me for showing up on a day where they thought the class clown wouldn’t show up!

mom: your going, thats final, go to bed!

me *muttering under breath*: oh i can’t stand this! i mean what kinda century is she living in. ha! i bet grandma always let her stay at home

mom: what did you say?

me: >_> nothing!

So, i go back to my room with another lost battle. Then, my brain hatched an idea

brain: 3thog why don’t you just skip school tomorrow

then, the two angels on my shoulder (you know the angelic one and the devil one that you always see in cartoons and sitcoms)

The Devil Angel: go ahead! this is perfect! think about it, 3thog, you leave for school before your parents wake up, and get back before they come back from work. Its Perfect!!

The Angelic Angel: oh no no! think about the consequences! what if you get caught?

The Devil Angel: chances of that happening are slim

The Angelic Angel: psht, how are you going to say something like that you know that the chances of her getting caught is high

The Devil Angel: Its only one time! and if she should ever get caught she can just tell her parent it was a half day. besides, her school NEVER calls when she misses school, why should tomorrow be any different

i gotta tell you, i was going with the girl with the pitchfork idea more than the girl with wings behind her back.

Me: I’m staying tomorrow

The Devil Angel: hell yeah!

The Angelic Angel: Allah meeer yehadik ( somebody turned 8a9imy )

I stayed home, obviously. I gotta say having my adrenaline pumped, my spine tingle, and the thought of getting caught was kinda exciting . When my parents left for work, i left my room and headed downstairs to The Den. I brought cookies, candy, soda, popcorn (yes for breakfast) and sat and watched TV.

a few moments passed then i heard

“WHAT THE H E DOUBLE HOCKEY STICKS ARE YOU DOING HERE ?!”

yep, you guessed it it was my sweet and loving mother

me: uh, um, i, you see what had happened was

mom: oh i can’t believe this! you skipped school?? oh my goodness you are in so much trouble young lady. I can’t even look at you right now. Go upstairs, change, get your bag, i’ll be waiting in the car!

I got into so much trouble! you have no idea! my parents are both educators, skipping school for them is like committing a capital crime!

lets see i got grounded (no TV, Internet, Cell phone, money, friends, reading for fun, life) , um i had to do most of the chores (woohoo! i bet our maid was delighted ), ummmm and i was never to be trusted again!

It was the punishment from hell!!

moral of the story: don’t skip school unless you are 100% positive you won’t get caught (some moral advice I’m giving, eh ? )

Me: OK sis, so i skipped school that was one bad mistake

sis: bad? it was stupid! why are you so stupid?

me: um, were

sis: what?

me: you used present tense “why” , it was in the past hence the “were”

sis: no, i mean you were stupid and you still are stupid

me: gee, thanks

sis: no problem, happy to be of service

me: OK, i got it you can shut up now

sis: why don’t you make me

me: gladly

then we started throwing random objects at each other . No worries, no one got hurt, but i faked a cry and she apologized and we hugged

hmmmm, guess opposites really due attract

well, as you can tell I’m back from NY

I have been back since last Monday, but I’ve been TOO busy with newspaper crap, school preparations, college application mess that i think I’m deprived of sleep .

I think my answer is chocolate, but i don’t like chocolate . They say stressed is desserts spelled backwards, and i should have desserts right now but I’m on a diet, i can’t eat desserts to distress

btw : i didn’t volunteer yesterday (Sunday) at the hospital and i think they’re going to kick me out of the volunteer program .

Arrghhh! Also, on Wednesday ,i believe, my mom invited women over for a gathering. Oh! how much i despise fancy gatherings. Anyways, one lady started making fun of Saudi (yes, she is saudi as surprising as that may seem) she started saying things like:

“oh Saudi people are very rude and obnoxious and closed minded and stupid i can’t believe i even lived in that place”

“oh Saudi men disgust me, I mean last night i was walking and …..”

“oh Saudi girls seem like they are innocent, but on the inside they are sluts…”

I said to her : You are very opinionated, may i ask why you carry this hatred toward Saudi?

She looked at me with bugged-out eyes and said : oh my dear! your too young to understand! Saudi sucks! Saudi will lower you , will belittle you, will … blah blah blah i really wasn’t listening after the “too young to understand” part .

OK, i very much believe everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but i draw the line when you start talking about a country with no real reason! If you have a reason, i will understand but for no reason ? No, you shouldn’t be talking about ANY country for that matter.

What bugged me the most was that in that gathering there were other non-saudi women who were listening to what she was saying!

So, like i said i was (still am) stressed all week, and i didn’t like the way she was talking about Saudi Arabia. I said to her in a calm but firm tone (OK, so i was semi-rude)

“look, you have no real reason. Saying i’m too young is just an excuse you use to make it OK to talk about Saudi Arabia. Now, i know Saudi Arabia isn’t perfect,  but that doesn’t give you the right to criticize it with no meaningful reason. Don’t give me that ‘Saudi is closed minded’ crap. If you really do have a real problem with Saudi Arabia and find it important to criticize then don’t speak about it, write about it WITH REAL REASONS”

she started laughing. I kid you not!

she said “Oh honey, writing about it won’t do anything” and she continued with her very disturbing laugh.

Me: “Oh, so talking about it will do something? what will you gain out of talking about Saudi? what will be accomplished ? You think Saudi will listen this way?”

I got up, i couldn’t stand it any more! she says Saudi is closed minded but she should really see how closed minded she is.

Like one of my all-time favorite quotes say “Instead of finding faults in others, search yourself”

I am not a fan of what Saudi offers to its citizens (don’t get me started on women), but i don’t find sitting around in a place full of people from other countries and start criticizing in a very arbitrary fashion OK. It won’t get a person anywhere!

I think she didn’t really want to talk about the problem Saudi faces these days, as much as she wanted to gossip!
