*sigh* My snowboard still lies in the corner of my room forming a foreign friendship with the dust. Oh, how I long to ride it...

"The good you find in others, is in you too.
The faults you find in others, are your faults as well.
After all, to recognize something you must know it.
The possibilities you see in others, are possible for you as well.
The beauty you see around you, is your beauty.
The world around you is a reflection, a mirror showing you the person you are.
To change your world, you must change yourself.
To blame and complain will only make matters worse.
Whatever you care about, is your responsibility.
What you see in others, shows you yourself.
See the best in others, and you will be your best.
Give to others, and you give to yourself.
Appreciate beauty, and you will be beautiful.
Admire creativity, and you will be creative.
Love, and you will be loved.
Seek to understand, and you will be understood.
Listen, and your voice will be heard.
Show your best face to the mirror, and you'll be happy with the face looking back at you."

I was flipping through the pages of a newspaper and I came across the Horoscopes of the Day. Mine read the following:
"The alien in your closet was just arrested for growing the green under his bed. You may have to stage a jailbreak."
Jee, now I know exactly what i'm going to do today!

You see the thing is, I had no intention of going out today much less out to buy groceries. Sleep has been an issue lately and I completely sabotaged any prospects of a decent night of rest last night because after staying up past 12am on the computer, I got back up around 1am puttering around the house until 2:00am. By then everyone in the house was sound asleep so I decided to go to my room and open up a few textbooks to catch up on my studies. Surprisingly, I got so much done. True silence comes at the hours of darkness. That’s when I concentrated most. So finally, sleep comes creeping up at around 3:00am and I wake up to the voice of my dad, at 10:30am, asking me to accompany him to the store to assist in purchasing our provisions. So, I go. And now I’m back on the computer. I think I’m going to go catch up on my sleep now. I can almost hear the humming of my bed luring me in. Good night.
It is very hard to say the exact truth, even about your own immediate feelings- much harder than to say something fine about them which is not the exact truth.

The Shamsoons
The classic American cartoon The Simpsons is being Arabicised into The Shamsoons.
I think they're changing the name Homer to Omar and Bart to Badr. Something like that...
Here, check it out for yourself:
