On Saddam’s Death

30Dec06

I am deeply offended that we are expected to be that stupid. From the moment he was captured to the moment he died, everything felt like a tasteless show. His trial was anything but fair, more like a horrible Egyptian movie in which a “man” is being prosecuted by his worst enemies, and [...]

OMG it’s snowing!!!! I’m so so so so so so so so happy!! I can’t believe it, I could catch a couple of those cotton flakes falling, it’s so amazing.
It’s my first snow in Jordan, YES! And I wish it will continue tomorrow and my midterm exam and presentation get canceled.

A Masculine Chocolate Bar!

22Dec06

I stopped by the grocery shop down the street today as usual to see if they got my favorite Cadbury with fruits and nuts; consuming at least one bar of chocolate every other day has become a new guilty pleasure of mine. Well, I didn’t find my favorite chocolate, but I found something far more [...]

Married: its not bad, its like having a baby! But a HUGE one!! [...]

Stereotyped Jobs

20Dec06

It amazes me that women at least over here (the Arabic part of the world) still suffer from discrimination in job opportunities and recruitment. I understand how traditions play a role in our lives but I always thought it’s about time we see women as hardware support technicians, software support persons where the work is [...]

Who the hell do they think they are?!

15Dec06

The Israeli High Court of Justice ruled Thursday that the targeted killings (assassinations) of Palestinian fighters do not violate the international law, and the “legality” of each targeted killing must be evaluated on individual basis, Israeli online daily Haaretz reported. [More]

I Ask Thee

11Dec06

It’s 2:11 AM in Amman and I’m still awake (naturally). I can’t help but ask myself questions that nothing but headache results from trying to answer them. For example, why on earth did I start a masters program? So what if I like marketing? Was that enough reason to go back to school? And [...]
