About Me

I'm a Palestian girl who was born In Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. My family moved to Canada in '93 after the Gulf War, for "economic oppertunities". I've been in Canada ever since.

My Interests

My intrests include reading (I like Harry Potter too ^_^), music, and arts and crafts. I read ALOT, and I visit the library a few times a week. I play violin, though I don't take private lessons. I just learned in music class in highschool, but I continue to play in my free time. As for art and crafts, I particularily like paper crafts, like origami and popups. I also like to work with clay.

I'd like to meet:

J.K Rowling, Hayao Miyazaki, Steven Spielberg, Izhtak Perlman, Yo-yo ma, James Ehnes, John Powell, Thomas Newman, and John Williams.

Music:

I like instumental music best. I especially like movie soundtracks. I find that I like music from all sorts of genres; it really just depends on the song. I listen to country rock, heavy metal, pop, rap, hiphop, soft rock, you name it. But always, it really just depends on the song.

Movies:

I don't watch movies often. In fact, I hardly ever go to the movies.

Anyway, I liked The Italian Job, Lemony Snicket's a series of Unfortunate Events, Harry Potter and the Prinsoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Mulan, and Spirit: Stallion of Cammiron, The Lion King.

Okay, the list is getting to big. I guess I like any film with stunning visuals and a good soundtrack (and of course a decent script).

Television:

I don't have cable anymore, and for the better, so the only shows I really watch anymore are America's Most Wanted and America's Funniest home Videos, but most of the time I miss them, because I'm not in tune with the T.V schedule. I'm too busy to waste time watching T.V anymore.

I watched T.V once after months of not watching anmything but videos or DVDs. Commercial really, really, tire me out now. I can't believe how much I was used to them before, and I keep thinking, how can anyone stand that?

Books:

Harry Potter, A Series of Unfortunate events (What can I say? I get hooked to series), A Wrinkle in Time, Lord of the Flies, The Giver, and Where the Heart is.

Heroes:

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

My Blog

First Post

Decided to see what's with all the hype over myspace.  It's okay I guess.  I have another blog which is at an anime site, so the community is a bit tighter there.  There's only aro...
