Younger Siblings

This post is only about my intake of being an older sister.

You:  Leave my room, now! I'm doing my homework (on Facebook or YouTube)
Sib:  Noooo! I don't want to!  or   I won't disturb you!!! Please (puppy face)  ='(


You can either remember your version of this happening to you or laugh at how you don't have these problems. I have these problems, and I'm ok with it. Not that I enjoy shouting, but that every pair of siblings go through this. It's about as natural as urinating. <-- my similes SUCK     

Older siblings:   You can be the control freak or be the kindest sibling in your house.
Young ones:   You can be the hurricanes of trouble or be the googa talking, walking monster of adorable-ness.

Normal Relationship :  
  or an unrealistic one:



Just kidding guys, but seriously no control freaks   xD







Weather in Jordan

   Sorry, I couldn't write this post yesterday because the Wifi Internet was shaky.

Yesterday's weather was odd. I wore a shirt and Capri's jeans like any other spring day in Amman, but once I went to my piano/voice class it started to heavily rain. So Mom and I ran to our awesome car. I was hungry so we went through the drive through and the sun came out again. Then I immediately went to my ballet class, and when I came out it became dark, though it was afternoon, but I looked at the sky and rain clouds came out.
Mom and I came home and it started to HAIL!!! Freakin' hail!!!! Like seriously, in Spring?

In my past years in Jordan, the seasons came like this:
  1. Summer: Hot, but not so much as humid hot. Light rain, once a month if lucky
  2. Fall/Autumn: In between warm and cold, rains a lot in October and later
  3. Winter: Really cold, only in Second Gr. did I experience the closest thing too snow, here.
  4. Spring: In between semi- cold and relatively warm. Rains a bit in February-March.

PS: I think the sun loves tormenting us. It's like "Am I confusing your outfit plans? Am I confusing you to the core?"

The Early Mornin' Before School

   School has broke a system in me, to be an early bird. It is an neutral feeling, you wake up, have breakfast when you want to cuz you have lots of time, finish homework calmly if you forgot, and be chill when the bus comes. On the weekend, I wake up usually at 5:00, have a small breakfast and play games on my iPod, then the rest of the family wakes up and they have pancakes, eggs, waffles leaving me in exile as my stomach has been filled.
I am writing this post, because my bus comes in more than 30 minutes.

Amman, Jordan Pt. 2

A pretty long post


   So I live in Amman and it's dirty, I'll admit, but not horribly polluted. They're small piles of garbage, rather than scattered, like, everywhere and in most of the empty lots across rows of houses, there's a big garbage can. Some say "People who take the trash out throw it everywhere except the garbage can" and it may seem like that but in Jordan there's quite strong wind and I think because the garbage truck comes about every two days, that the full garbage can has some junk knocked off.

A few things I don't like about Amman:
  1. When a garbage truck comes a day or two later than usual a pissed person fires the garbage up rather than wait and put up with the smell, and space taken up.
  2. The traffic... once it's jammed, it's damn jammed.
  3. How I never know if the stores in Amman are any where else in the world.
Amman is beautiful, and pretty peaceful. I think people get pissed at first, but I've been here for 5 years so I really love Amman. <3

Amman, Jordan part 1

Another short post

A lot of kids that are foreign don't really favor Jordan, but I'm more of a go-with-the-flow kind of girl. Amman is actually pretty nice. Center Amman is dirty but not so much polluted, while the outskirts or edges of Amman are as green as boogers  :) jkjkjkjk, green as grass  <- this simile sucked. I wish some of the people I know see the beauty of Amman rather than the flaws... :(

Bed time

It's just a small post

Do you guys still have strict bed times? I don't, since my mom knows if I'm not tired I physically can't sleep, just as long as my eyes are closed before 10:30... xD



Let me know if you still have bed times in the comments below!

Teachers... :P

Sorry I haven't been blogging in a while, but I've been pretty busy... I had my birthday on the 9th and I was down in Aqaba, and school happened. :)

   Teachers. TEACHERS :)  teachers :(   No matter how you say it, their goal is to TEACH you, not be your friend as some of the naive think. 


You can have a teacher like this and be happy: 
                                                                                


Or have a nightmare like this
or like this, who will break all the dignity you have after your failing class




I hate the stereotype ' all old teachers are mean or grumpy' because I happen to know a very sweet, delicate teacher who is now a sub. because she reached the age of retirement. I also know a teacher, a young one that I thought was so cruel, but now she's one of my fav. teachers. The note above about teachers teaching and not being your friend was sorta true. Teachers go through years of learning the kid's mind and how to work around the classroom, so would you think the teachers first thought was to be your best friend?
Uh-uh....no, no
Teachers are nice and can be your friend-ish person, but not your best friend. Seriously, imagine a 42 year old man mimicking a monkey while being on the playground... eeughhhhhh... scary thought. AAAhhhh!!! Imagine him/her with you!!!

Just a thought that can linger through your dreams...
