Since I mention that I listen to arabic music often I thought I would give yall a taste of what I listen to. Hurray for youtube!
This first one is by a Lebanese Artist name Joseph Attieh. The song is called 7abayt 3ayounak (Pronounced "Hahbayta Younek")
The next one is by an Egyptian artist name Amr Diab (Pronounced "Amherr Diab") and the song is called El Allem Alla

I'm thinking of moving...
I am thinking of moving within the next few months. I'll still be at EAC for the Spring Semester however I want to move out of Mark Allen Hall and either move into the Residence Towers or an Apartment across the street. The reason I want to move out of Mark Allen hall is that the football team lives on my floor and they are a loud bunch of jerks and they will not be quiet even when you ask them. So its like 200-300 bucks more for the towers per semester and if I can scrape that together I will see if I can move there. I am also feeling boxed in in this small town and cant wait till Thanksgiving to go to Mesa.
However also I want to leave Arizona and I might be doing that this summer. I am absolutely sick of Arizona and I need to get out of here soon. I've lived here far too long in my opinion and I also need to get out of the Southwest. Next semester I am either going to take medical billing or a nursing assistant course so I can easily get a job that would pay decently while I work my way through school.
Anyways I kinda want to move back to Maryland but its really expensive there so I would need to have a lot of money saved up before I moved and a job lined up there. I would eventually want to go to University of Maryland College Park.
I mailed in my stuff to Primavera High School and I hopefully will be able to start my online class through them on October 5th. I only need a goverment class to get a high school diploma so I am going to try to finish this class and pass it asap. Then I would finally have my high school diploma. I should have gotten it from my last High School but my Principal was a jerk and decided at the last minute that I wasnt graduating. So its time to move on and I will be finishing through Primavera Online High School. This shouldnt be too hard to finish.
A friend of mine introduced me to some more arab artists Ramy Ayash and Joseph Attieh. Go look them up on youtube they are worth listening to.
No luck in the part time job department at the moment and all positions at school are filled so I am still looking.
I had two essays due this week. One in English 101 and the other in U.S. History 101. Ugh they were a pain to do. And I have a test tommorrow in U.S. History... Double ugh. It shouldnt be too bad though as the instructor says its multiple choice.
I just spent the last three hours walking. I decided to take a walk after dinner and I just lost track of time.

I like Pandora
Ok so before class starts while everyone is still coming in my professor for U.S. History always has some Beethoven playing on his computer through the internet radio service Pandora.com I wrote down the website this morning and now I am on it while writing this. Its awesome. It doesnt seem like they have much in the way in Foreign Artists (well Arab artists are the only foreign artists I have tried so far) but they do have a lot of american bands such as The All American Rejects. Basically you go on and type in a Band or a Song and it searches for it and if they have it you can listen to it. And the best part of it all is that its free!
Right now I am just a general studies major but I am seriously considering also doing a major in World History. Why you may ask? I am good at History and I enjoy it to an extent. One of these days I need to sit down with a Guidance Counseler and see what classes I would need to take to get an Associates Degree in History. I plan on also getting an Associates Degree in General Studies so when I transfer to a University I wont have to take "Core Classes" again after I've already taken them. But then again there are so many things I could major in that it could take me years to get out of school if I pursued Bachelors Degrees in all these areas.
Ugh.... You know those caffine withdrawel headaches you get if you drink caffinated drinks and then dont drink any caffiene for a few days? Well a couple of weeks ago I gave up drinking soda because I am trying to lose weight and all that sugar that soda has wasnt helping with my weight loss goals. So I switched to drinking water. Well tonight I decided to get a soda and I ended up getting something with caffiene in it and I am getting the caffiene withdrawel headache while drinking it. Ugh...
So I went to Wal Mart yesterday and noticed they still had some back to school sales going on so I went over to the back to school section and noticed they had bath towels on sale. Now I had already gotten one on sale at this Wal Mart for three bucks. Not a bad deal right? Well they still had the same matching towels on sale for three bucks apiece there so I ended up getting two more.
Math class was cancelled today because my math teacher was sick and didnt come to school today so I only had U.S. History in the morning and then I was free. I had finally gotten some money to put on my laundry card. My school for the washers and dryers uses a card similar to a debit card where it has a chip on it and then you insert the card into the machine and it deducts the cost of the wash or dry (75 cents). You put money on it by going to a machine near the residence life offices and putting the card in the machine and either swiping your debit or credit card or putting cash on it by slipping a 5, 10, or 20 dollar bill into the bill acceptor. My debit card got here finally so I was able to put some money on my laundry card and do my laundry. So I got all of that done so I have clean clothes to wear! Now I need to find a part time job so I am not always broke. My parents give me a little money each month but it all goes towards school stuff such as my laundry. So if I want spending money I need to find a part time job and I am not having much luck with that. All campus jobs at this point are taken and I've been trying since before school started. Oh well I will just have to keep looking.
