I've always wanted to write a book . I think it started around the time I started reading and became fascinated with what books held. Imagination, knowledge , but most of all freedom! The ability to be able to write about whatever you imagine and have an escape route from reality and your daily life. I think it was then that I was able to live my life. Although that was at an extremely young age of just 9 years old. The first book that gave this feeling was Harry Potter ( I know so over-rated, but hey I was 9 !!!) I enjoyed imagining what life would be like if we were actually witches and wizards. But that was just the beginning and I wasn't addicted to reading it was just a past time I enjoyed. My addiction really started when I moved to Amman at the age of 13. I dreaded the thought of moving some where that was so foreign to me, that scared me to death. Unlike most teenagers I didn't rebel I behaved myself but I stayed to myself and read more, imagined more, learned more. This ultimately eased the transaction of being in one society and moving to a complete opposite one. I was able to accept the culture i was thrown into. I've been living here for almost 10 years and I still learn something new about this society each day. 99% of the time it has to be said, written down, and acknowledged. So that's what I'm going to do. But since I don't know what to write about i thought that if i started blogging that maybe its easier to get my story out so I'm going to write about random thoughts of my daily life and maybe from there, a book will grow.. so here I go. Ready? Set? GOO!!!
