Good evening everybody!
What a day it has been for everyone around the world. A sunday of silence and mourning for 9/11. I really cannot believe it's been 10 years. I was in fifth grade, just a child. I didn't comprehend half of what I know now & it's scary to truly sympathize with those personally affected. I was fortunate, 10 years ago, because it was my first travel to North Africa. I actually came home two weeks early from my trip and missed the attacks...which could have kept me overseas for an indefinite period of time. It was unfortunate, however, to come home because my life changed forever. The emergency was that my mother had totaled her car and was to be put on disability.
My college experience, social experience, and personality have all been altered by the events that happened 10 years ago. I now stay home and commute 25 miles everyday to school and work so that I can take care of her. It makes me stronger.
I think that we all can get something from today. Whether we were personally affected by the outcome or if we're just evaluating our lives from then until now... I think it is a dose of reality we all need.
I am proud to live in this country that gives me the right to education, safety, freedom, and happiness. My heart goes out to those who don't have these basic human rights, and I hope that in the next ten years the world can make changes to improve the lives of everyone in this world, not just a few.

On a lighter note...
Last night I went out with my best friend to a show in St. Louis. Needless to say it was incredible. I found the event on FB, and by chance decided to listen to a few of his songs. They captivated me instantly. He has such a smooth, classic voice, and the indie rock jams put me in an amazing mood I can't seem to shake. I met G-Eazy after watching his spunky, and comical performance of his new Mixtape, Endless Summer. I was amazed at the beauty of his music, performance, and chivalry. He is a ladies man, that's for sure .
We danced our booties off until the last song, it was magical. We were just about to leave after the performance, but as we were heading out he just happened to be standing right by the back exit. I looked back at my friend, she nodded, and walked to him. He introduced himself, shook my hand, and chatted with me for a minute before he left to talk to his people. We then decided to go ahead and head out... but my emotions took a hold of me, and I thought I'd approach him in the parking lot to ask if he wanted to smoke with us before we left. He was all for it, but when we left to get the goods from my car, my friend decided she was not having it....UGH! Chicks before dicks, right!? So we left, and I had to turn on the radio because if I kept his mixtape playing on the way home I might've exploded with frustration :|
When he asked me, "Would you like a picture with me?" I responded "Idk...would YOU like a picture with ME?!"... so dumb. Oh well, I got a picture but no unfortunately. Maybe next time, G . I've been tweeting him like a sappy high school crush all day, but I think it's time to move on for now, and if our paths cross again, hopefully, I will have more courage.
One thing he did ask me to do was spread the word for him, so I will do my best . I hope you all enjoy it. I will link his website and post his music video.

The next night, it was fire bombed.
The next day, a friend awoke to see red paint splashed on her door. She broke her lease, and asked me for sanctuary, a religious concept I had explained to her last time I had seen her. Aisha had given up on Islam years ago, but to be an Arab in Dallas I helped to facilitate her move to Washington, where she now works in Intelligence. After a few years, she asked me to join her.
She sometimes refers to herself as "Abu Americawa."
We celebrated out tenth anniversary as boyfriend/girlfriend on September 16.
