Alrighty then, let’s get this show on the mother frakn’ road!
1. I talk to myself- Aha, I know what you’re thinking. You probably think I’m a tad crazy (which maybe true) but it’s one habit that I’ve had since I was young.
2. I’m a music snob- Ok ya’ll let me explain! I LOATHE shallow, generic music…So when I hear people reciting the lyrics to formulaic and stupid songs like ‘Party Like a Rockstar’ I start cursing my generation! 
3. I wish I was older- I hate being 14. I’d rather be 21, living in Paris, sipping some tea with my model boyfriend. Ok maybe I’m watching too much TV but that should pretty much say something else about me.  :P 
4. I once convinced people that my real name was Myrtle.
5. I have a pair of green skinny jeans
6. My dad can speak arabic, english and romanian while my mom can speak arabic, english and russian! (Random enough?)
7. I doodle all over my school work (thanks to Clem for noticing that I had no number 7!)

Well I’m not going to tag anyone, but feel free to do this meme! 

Well there you have it mes cheries! I shall be blogging soon with pictures of my new grad dress (oh yippee! I have a story to share, of course!) and pics of my new (well not anymore) glasses and cellphone (finally!)

P.S I just noticed that I used way too many brackets in the last bit.

LOVE YARA!

…’Cause everyone loves an embarrasing story once in a while

I was punch drunk crazy in love…and also five years old!

So guys I have to confess, I’ve actually proposed to someone before…at the ripe ol’ age of five. Being the little sweetheart that I was, I had found the love of my life in the form of a greasy nineteen year old. Here is the story:

I used to go to my dad’s work when I was younger and they always had teenage volunteers helping around. And that’s when I met him. He was around nineteen, tall, langly, had curly red hair, acne, glasses and always wore a baseball cap. To me, he was fracking George Clooney ( I look bad at this and think dayyum I had bad taste when I was a young’un!)

To make this story short and sweet , I confessed my love to him in the form of a marraige. His answer was a plain and simple “NO!”

My little heart was shattered and broken :P. Well not really, I forgot about him the next day! Ohh, how young hearts are so mendable. If only that was the case when we get older.

So what are some of your embarrasing stories? SHARE THEM

I was never a fan of Miley Cyrus’s music, acting, whatever she’s dabbled in, but I respected her for being a good role model. Boy was I wrong. I take back all my words people…let me explain why.

I was browsing ONTD! until I came across a very interesting post. It was a picture post about Ms. Miley Cyrus. And who would’ve thunk it! There were three pictures of her; 1) of her exposing some of her bra and trying to act ’sexy’, the second one of her lifting up her shirt and laying on top of this nasty, older guy on a bed, and the third was of her (more covered up this time) laying on top of the same guy on that same very bed. Am I the only one who sees the problem with this?! She is 15! I’m 14 and I find those inappropriate.  Before I rant on and on about this, let me just quote the comment that I left on ONTD! I think it sums up what I want to say pretty nicely.

Honestly…wtf is she doing?! I’m close to her age and I would never fucking do the shit she’s doing! Sure people are saying ‘well all 15 year olds do that’. So? They are not Miley Cyrus. A girl who openly talks about her purity ring, and is a role model for young girls everywhere. She chose to be in the spotlight and if she dare say that she just wants to grow up like normal teenagers everywhere I’m going to puke. She’s not living a normal teenage life, she’s MILEY CYRUS!

So what do you guys think? Am I the only one who is horrified?

 This was a conversation I had with a male friend earlier this year. 

“You girls don’t understand how much pain us guys have to go through when we get kicked in the balls.”

“What?”

“It’s the most painful thing ever!”

“Um we’re the one’s who give birth to children!”

*Silence*

And btw, it does hurt to get hurt in the vag! Tyra Banks and her amazing vagina puppet also agree.

Haha I’m sorry for this random post but I’m sick of guys pretending to be all macho because they think that they can handle getting kicked in the nads. Puh-lease *rolls eyes*.

I’m scared of so many things, it’s not funny. Most people grow out of their fears while I just grow into them. Here are just a few of my fears:

• Heights
• Speed
• Crossing the street without looking both ways a billion times
• Centipedes
• Large spiders
• Diving (while swimming)
• Drowning (don’t know how to swim)
• Floating (in water….we are so on a roll eh )
• Riding a bike on the street (haven’t ridden it in 4 years)
• Rollerblading (never learned)
• Failure….
• Public Bathrooms
• Throwing up 

So in a few years I guarantee that this will be me…(ok not the Jake Gyllenhal part but the bubble part. If I turned into JG than I think I’d have a big problem.)

One fateful day in 2006, everything changed…a man walked into our lives and has changed them forever…ever ever? (thanks Kanye for that part XD )

So this mysterious man is actually a legend to my friends and I. He was a substitute teacher for us in grade six and honestly he has changed our outlooks on life. Ok, so you may ask what’s so special about this old fella’? Well the truth is he subbed for our teacher one day and he wouldn’t stop talking! He talked to us about the close mindedness of elderly people (he is quite old himself) and the WHOLE history of soccer. He bored us to tears and he was always found writing a mysterious email in the back of the room…hmmm. Today he was also our substitute and everyone went mad. When we all arrived to class he told us the history of how people were killed in the 1800’s…it was very graphic :P. He also threatened in making us read the dictionary and yelled at one too many students. I saw many people supress their laughter because he wouldn’t stop talking…but they had never had him as a sub so they never knew what they were in for :P 

The legend lives on guys, in the form of a 60 something British man and honestly I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Have you ever experienced something like this?  Have you even known a really quirky person that you will never fo’get :P?

One thing that annoys me is when people come up to me and go “ZOMG! YOU JUST SWORE!” People think that I’ve never uttered a profanity in my life before when I have, maybe not as usual as other people do but I DO! Everyday people come up to me and start having a heart attack because they heard me say the word crap. I say the word crap and shit quite a lot too :|, where have they been? What do people think I say when I’m angry, frustrated or scared…’ooh fluff bunnies!’ and like giggle in a corner and cover my mouth ? Honestly it annoys me because they think that I’m such a goody two shoes? I admit I’m no rebel, I’m completely the opposite. I never burst out saying the f-word everytime I open my mouth to speak, but please people give me some credit (atleast for the sake of my sanity).  What angers me the most is that people who chuckle when anyone mentions the word vagina for example, go up and start having a  frackn’ seizure when they hear me say the word shit or something, and start screaming that they’ve never heard ME swear! It pisses me off because they don’t have the right to say that to me…grrr.

I’m sorry If I’m sounding like those little kids who want to act older by saying a few bad words, I’m not :P. It just angers me when people come up to me and say that (it happened today!) because it’s not true.

So to end this entry I only have one word to say:

FUCK!

lol.

Thanks for enduring this whole entry of whining and ranting guys, I love you for that <3

Yaardvark!

Lyrics: Life is Wonderful by Jason Mraz

It takes a crane to build a crane
It takes two floors to make a story
It takes an egg to make a hen
It takes a hen to make an egg
There is no end to what I’m saying
It takes a thought to make a word
And it takes some words to make an action
It takes some work to make it work
It takes some good to make it hurt
It takes some bad for satisfaction
La la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Al la la la la

It takes a night to make it dawn
And it takes a day to make you yawn brother
And it takes some old to make you young
It takes some cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have the other

And it takes no time to fall in love
But it takes you years to know what love is
It takes some fears to make you trust
It takes those tears to make it rust
It takes the dust to have it polished

Ha la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is so full of
Ah la la la la la la life is so rough
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is our love
Ah la la la la la

It takes some silence to make sound
It takes a loss before you found it
And it takes a road to go nowhere
It takes a toll to make you care
It takes a hole to make a mountain

Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ha la la la la la life is wonderful
Ha la la la la la life is meaningful
Ha la la la la la life is wonderful
Ha la la la la la life it is…so… wonderful
It is so meaningful
It is so wonderful
It is meaningful
It is wonderful
It is meaningful
It goes full circle
Wonderful
Meaningful
Full circle
Wonderful

lyrics from A-Z lyrics :).

I have always had this thing with Vampires. I’ve just found them… hot? Ok you guys are probably thinking that I’m some weirdo who drinks tomato juice in her basement and wears plastic fangs but no it’s nothing like that! I just find them dangerous and sexy (the idea of them anyways.) I think my old crush on these mystical creatures has resurfaced majorly since I bought three books, Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse which are all written by Stephenie Meyer and are all about…Vampires. Ok numero uno, I’m still on the first book (geesh I bought these on Monday) and I’m already 300 pages in and it is completely AMAZING! I shan’t put it down sometimes. I can’t wait for the movie! Plus the character Edward Cullen (who is a vampire) is so frakn’ dreamy. Now I want to go find my own mysterious lad, who shall be a vampire and we will live happily ever after, capeese?!

Ok I am slightly insane and loony but don’t blame me, blame the stupid lego thing I had to build for science class…and oh yes I  indeed failed at it :(. My partner and I couldn’t make the cart house a moving, working fan out of lego…barely anyone could! So before I explode and bury my failure in more excuses (btw, I was away while she did the lesson on gears, which was the most important simple machine needed in the whole cart) I shall go off into my own little imaginary world where I do find my blood hungry Prince :). 

P.S I didn’t want to provide links to the books on Wikipedia, in fear of finding spoilers! The first book is THAT good. Go out and buy it. Now. And no, I’m no way affiliated with the author what so ever .

When I was a young kid I listened to standard pop music, filled with way too many ‘ooh babies’ and preplanned dance moves, unneeded cameos and just FUN! Oh yes, the first album that I ever owned was a B*witched album :). Now that I think about the songs that I used to listen to as a lil’ fetus (ok I wasn’t an actual fetus, but you get my point ) I noticed that they are not extacly hmm hmm innocent?

Some of the artists I listened to were Britney Spears, Spice Girls, B*Witched and a countless amount of boybands. You could say Justin Timberlake was Tearing up my Heart way before he brought Sexy Back for me (I’m not a fan anymore, but dayuum his little cute blonde curls did me in back in the day).

So a few days I got the urge to listen to C’est La Vie by B*Witched, well just…because :P. While I was emmersing my self in childhood memories and awesome dance moves (oh yeah!) I noticed that what I was listening to some not so G rated lyrics. Well either that, or I’m dirty minded.

I said, hey boy sittin in your tree
Mummy always wants you to come for tea
Don’t be shy, straighten up your tie
Get down from your tree house sittin in the sky
I wanna know just what to do
Is it very big is there room for two ?
I got a house with windows and doors
I’ll show you mine if you show me yours

Ok does anyone see where I’m coming from? I’ll show you mine if you show me yours?! If that doesn’t seem sexual to anyone than I might be going crazy!

Next Example!

Well while I was searching for the lyrics of O-Town’s oh so bluntly titled song Liquid Dreams, I got a virus warning so I decided not to continue my search :(.

BUT HAVE NO FEAR! I will still continue even if I have to go along without the lyrics! For anyone who doesn’t know or has never heard this song before, it’s pretty much a song dedicated to wet dreams…erm yup that’s right. When I was younger I loved that song because I had no idea what it meant! They had visions of girl who was a mix of Janet Jackson, Beyonce and etc…and this perfect woman would visit them in their liquid dreams.

So to end this riveting blog (not really :P) I shall ask you, what are some songs that you used to listen to when you were young? Are they as innocent as you thought they were, or are they durr-tay?
