HAPPPPYYY BIIIRTHDAY TO MEEEE!!! Yes, I'm finally 18! Lol I don't know why I'm so excited, for most people 18 means going out to bars.. well legally, but I'll probablly go out for dinner with the family then watch my buffy dvds once I get home. haha I knoow I'm wild. Partying has never really been my thing besides even if I wanted to it would never happen. Seeing as the very few bars around here are filled with arab guys who talk more shit then any girl I know does, and me being a Arab/Muslim girl with Arab/Muslim parents I'd probablly get my ass kicked then shipped off to Lebanon haha.
I was about to go on a rant about the absolutely ridiculous double standard there is between arab guys and arab girls going to bars, but I didn't want to end this post on a downer so I'll leave it at that =)

So apparently no one thinks I can do it, become a teacher. People who have been telling me how important it is to get an education my entire life and pushing me to do more now think it would be better if I skip the whole expensive university thing and go work as a receptionist or something. Plus, according to my parents I don't have the right personality for teaching, little do they know the tough act I put up infront of them isn't really the person I am. I love children and teaching has always been what I've wanted to do and absolutely no one is going to talk me out of it, even if they refuse to help me finanacially. There dissaproval just makes me want to work harder to prove them wrong. I've always been a independant person and I don't expect help from anyone..not even my own parents.

The last time we got in a fight about this the conversation some how became about how I am never gunna find a husband to put up with me. *rolls eyes* my views are apparently too radical..how dare I expect men to do a little house work every now and then especially when we are both working and how dare I just blatantly give out my opinions and refuse to change my beliefs for anyone. Ugh Arab parents man.
