the magic of books
I have many books.
And I absolutely love them.
Fantasy books, biographies, novels, dictionaries, travel books and you name it. I can never get enough.
One of the things that I love about them, is that they make me forget the things around me. They let me dive into the imagination and the memory of others and live a life that is not mine. Books are a magic way to disappear for some time. I close myself into my room with my book, I shut myself out of the real world and I hide in another one. And that is the magic of books to me. They let me be someone else for a while, someone I am not, someone I will never be, They let me do and experience things that I will never have the chance to do. But somehow, just by reading the books, I feel that I have done it after all.
It's magic...

usa vs Al-Arjan
Okay, back to some serious business
A few days back I saw the documentary "Usa vs Al-Arjan", and I couldn't believe my own eyes, or ears for that matter. An innocent man was hold prisoner for 2 and a half years without being charged of anything!! And after a 6 months long trial where he was found NOT GUILTY on every charge, he was still not released from prison. It's crazy, I don't know what to say other than that I'm shocked. I had heard it was bad, but that it was that bad!
And me who thought the Usa was a democracy, I guess I was wrong...

This is how weird I am!!! hahahha
| You Are 30% Weird |
 Not enough to scare other people... But sometimes you scare yourself. |
I definitely thought I was a lot weirder than that!!
I guess I should be happy that I'm not, but I'm not. I like thinking of myself as weird, and I definitely scare myself sometimes...

two young girls
One day I was walking around in my village in Tanzania, I saw these two young girls. They were walking in front of me, they were laughing, smiling, running back and forth. They seemed so happy, like they had nothing to worry about in the entire world.
