not such a good day

oh man today kinda sucked. first of all last night mom was like so grouchy and it seemed like she was trying her best to pick up an arguement with me. then today, i went late to my drivers ed class, then i had to wait 1 whole hour for my mom to pick me up. then today, i supposedly was going to a party in ann arbor from 5-10, but mom is taking me at 7!!! also i dont like that the girl hosted her party the weekend i was going to host mine... i guess ill do mine next weekend... but still. unfair. her birthday was way back on the 12th, mine was on thursday!!!! so mine should be this weekend, hers shoulda been like two weeks ago... agh >_<
anyways... i got the best gift from brandones..!! it was like this binder full of different candies and choclates taped to each side, and each one represented a certain trait i possessed (ie. white chocolate (lmao!!!) , the biggest sista in da hood , amazing , and bubbly! ) thanks a million brandon! it was the best present i got so far! i also got a jersey from dali...!! its says "ben achour" on the back! (i think i wrote about this player in some earlier entry no? anyways hes like my favorite player... very cute too hehe!) thanks a ton dali (even though its gonna stay in my locker for a while hehe) im also getting a cellie from dad, and mom, i have no clue yet (since we're not exactly getting along lately)... marcy said she was getting me a gift soon... hmmm lol hers are always the best since she knows exactly what i like!!

omgosh, the district convention was hella fun.
it was like the best weekend i've had in a while. i met many many people. all very cool especially kayla, jess, steph, hisam, and ahmed. you guys like rock my world. kayla, "we're so the coolest, i mean look at the trends!" "oh yeah i mean socks with thong flip flops how hot!" haha and our hair... yours not staying curled, mine not staying straight (ok all that dancing does account for it lol!!) ... very nice memories!!
im so glad we'll be doing something this weekend yay! i hope jess and steph can make it too!

hisam- you're one of the coolest guys i've met at convention. ahmed- you're very sweet guy. hope to keep in touch. samah- you're also a very nice chica. oh yeah can't forget julia, omg girl you are so much fun, especially during the ball! thanks hisam and julia for sending me all the congrats! which brings me to tell all of you guys that- im now elected as lieutenant governer of division 11! woot woot! this is a major step for me in my life even, since ive wanted long ago to become our own clubs president. now that just seems too mere of a job. LTG is much more "official"...

U.S. Warns Citizens of Potential Attack in Tunisia

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The State Department has issued a travel advisory for its citizens in Tunisia, warning of potential terrorist attacks in the North African tourist destination.



"The United States Government has strong indications that individuals may be planning imminent terrorist actions in Tunisia," the State Department said in a April 19 statement.


"We have no further information on specific targets, timing, or method of attack, or capabilities of these individuals."


Washington said a terrorist attack may occur on or around dates of religious significance, such as the Moulid holiday in the third week of April.


"U.S. Government facilities remain at a heightened state of alert," it said.


A Tunisian government source, who declined to be named, told Reuters that the warning came within the context of similar warnings issued in many countries of possible terrorist attacks.


"Tunisian authorities have made the security and tranquility of citizens and guests of the country a priority. They will spare no effort or energy to preserve the security, peace and tranquility Tunisia enjoys," he said.


Tunisia was hit by a suicide attack in April 2002, claimed by Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network. The attack on a Jewish shrine on the southern Tunisian island of Djerba killed 21 people, including 14 German tourists.


Tourism is Tunisia's most important foreign currency earner, accounting form almost 20 percent of its total earnings.



Ugh this kind of news makes me nervous.

listening to Mikael Delta feat. Tania Tsanaklidou - Mia Agapi Mirki (Faithful Mix), from the buddha bar collections. im addicted to the collection. so we finally finished the meap, and i have tomorrow off! woot! i have like 3 things to do.. gotta decide on two though. not enough time to fit them in only one day ya know. well my day at school today was okay. boring, yeah you guessed, but more like sad. i finally switched tables at lunch, i swear i culdnt take one more day with the other guys, especially when i have friends seated right across from me. i feel like im becoming better friends with some, but also losing some other friendships (not that i have a lot of friends in whitmore, dont get me wrong, sometimes i dont wanna talk to anybody)... but one of my friends has been acting weird lately, and i just dont know whats up. anyways, at home, everything is excellent. im so happy to finally hear the "discussions" that my grandmother, uncle, and mother take part in almost everyday. they talk a lot. but its a good thing. i just love listening to them. omg, i just remembered, kent, i'll never forget last night. thats was way too hilarious to forget. "say it! say it! you cant speak french?! how come?!" haha... everytime i think about it i start to smile all over again. good times. well im gonna bounce. ciao everyone...

loca por tu amor

omg im having such a good day...! im in the mood for anything, up for anything! only 5 days til my family comes over. the only bad part is that i have school tomorrow. back to boredom land in ignorant whitmore lake. i cant wait to move, i swear. this summer will be the bomb, especially if i move to cali or north carolina. i know lotsa people there so it'll be all good. but then, ill become far from montréal and québec, my only two escapes from americanized, unflavorful places! :-( anyways, i dont even care where i move now, as long as i get out of here. even if its as far as the uae or japan (ok maybe not japan, good idea for summer vacation though)
im so in love with this salsa song called "tengo ganas" by victor manuelle. so... dreamy. feels like dancing on a hot summer day in buenos aires, avec tout les amis qui me partagent a créer l'ambiance parfaite! oh by the way, i made lyrics and i sung them out to the instrumental "sen gelmez oldun" by alihan samedov, from the buddha bar collection. it sounds nice. plus first i had to interpret the sounds and stuff and think up a theme that would fit well into it. but since the original song "starts" (like once all sounds are in use) after a whole minute, i cut the lyrics short as well to only fit the melodic part. ill post the lyrics someday (once i write them down lol... now i just memorized them) that reminds me, ill play the song here, the original i mean.
ahh i need new jeans. desperately. i found an amazing pair at ruehls last night, but they were $128. i didnt have that money on me, not then anyways. it was the only pair ive loved in my life. i have to go back and get them sometime. i wanna perfect the new sailor look so bad! i got the khakis, the striped shirt, and the anchor pin, oh and also the red, contrasting necklace which im just not letting go these days (ive worn it 4 days straight! perfect accessory!!)...
oh, on a more honorable note of respect, RIP Pope John Paul II. was a great humanitarian.
im gonna go. mwah.
oh also, how do you guys like my elie saab couture close up collage?

khodny ma3ak

im listening to marwan khoury, for those who dont know, the best male arabic singer out there!! he sings, writes, and produces!! not to mention his voice is amazing. i especially love his breakout single "kel el 2asayed" and "ettala3 fiyye" by carol samaha (marwan wrote and produced the song)
anyways, so i went to the mall yesterday, an and i actually got that skirt from lord and taylor! très adorable !! i also bought a sports muscle top and a BCBG 'sailor' shirt... i just want the matching jacket now... ahhh my obsession just wont cease! i get one thing, i want the other! im also going back to the mall today to submit my application to a certain store. not one i particularily like, but hey it's better than sitting my butt down all summer, right? speaking of summer, since im not going to tunis (or anywhere else out of the states for that matter... okay maybe canada and mexico)... im going to DC for 10 days with CSLC (leadamerica.org) should be fun.

je t'aimerais n'importe le prix, je te devrais toujours ma vie
