25 Unimportant & Totally Pointless Things About Fatima

i'm sorry for the long blog :P that you're about to maybe prolly NOT read 'cause its so long

but its the "25 things about yourself" kinda thing :P eee sorry guys T_T :P haha

my advice? skip to number 19 :P its my favourite :) haha 

(1) I complain a lot about my life, and of course its obviously not horrid neither is it perfect. However, i think i'm growing as a person :) its pretty exciting :P lol
ha, no i'm just coming to realize that a lot of people aren't privileged at like moi soo i'm trying to find ways to...privilege people? lmao no, more like set my priorities straight

(2) i don't believe that because you have a 98% average means you'll be a successful person. i.e being book smart. i envy smart people like that and i wish i had their abilities....my dad especially would love that ...but i know enough 'book smart' 'perfect grades' people to know that i can't see them becoming any nicer in the future. although, truthfully a lot of my friends fall in the 98% average category and they're the nicest and most extraordinary people ever...

(3) sure this will make me seem like some old 30 year old weirdo. but i cannot wait to have children. seriously i'll prolly have my own tv show "Fatima plus 32" or something. OR adopting!! i can't wait :) aaa and babies are just so cute! eee kk maybe in far? close enough? future. :P but yea :D i'll be a mother of 50. hopefully :P haha

(4) i love the smell of new books...old books. books in general actually. i intend on having the biggest library EVER!! with a ginormous selection of books!! unfortunately i don't even own many books, just the necessities/basics i.e Harry Potter, LOTR, & Dan Brown, kinda sucks but my dad doesn't believe in indulging in the frivolities of his daughter

(5) i keep a journal... that i haven't written in in a while :P oops. but i love empty beautiful notebooks, i usually don't want to spoil them with my writing. but ya, my journal is filled with the usual teenage angst, altho sometimes you'll find the odd mature entry about the problems in the world etc :P but lol its rare

(6) i'm a HUGE believe in love. ha sounds like some new cult or something but no what i mean is that i think that if we had these great feelings we could basically (cheese alert) open our hearts to everything and everyone around us T_T :P

(7) I also think that people have to realize that if they don't like a feeling or something, thn they should try their best not to have those bad feelings repeated to someone else. it BUGS me :P if i felt embarrassed in some sort of situation, i'd thn try my best not to let anyone else be embarrassed. i mean really, its common sense.

(8) i don't understand miniskirts. at all actually. i mean how is it attractive when your butt cheeks are hanging out of your skirt -_-'
hmm... i don't understand crocs, they look like garden shoes & most high school students tend to "dress to impress" for school but thn wear crocs. ALSO, i remember when we came back from libya after being a while gone, i swear!! my sister and i thought they were being giving out for free :P:P
what else...o yaa push up / minimizer bras etc. just love the boobs you have geez even if they are icky contraption like body parts :P but yea, work with them like you work with ur bum, hips, feet whatever....
^------ all that sounds so stupid. i mean i could care less what other ppl wear/do... so ignore that

(8, take 2) I have a cookie monster teddy bear thingie. i love him, and he's prolly the cause of my obesity :P he's cute though! and soft with a big tush.

(9) i can listen to the backstreet boys, n*sync, 98 Degrees... forEVER. i KNOW they dont really have talent. but seriously, their songs are priceless :)

(10) i'm a slight junk collector. i mean that i'll usually keep something because i love memories or because i think it'll be useful some other time. it's ALMOST getting close to "unnecessary", but not yet.

(11) i'm into the whole gentleman idea of opening doors, and helping a girl over a puddle, and buying one rose, or cuddling... if that makes me a sappy, typical, romantic girlie, so be it :) :P a girl can dream ;) :P lol

(12) this shouldn't be on here 'cause its awful BUT speaking of guys... back muscle, soccer playing, twinkling eyed, suit wearing guys = sexiest thing ever. add some sort of speaking deformity LOL aka accent or lovely 'huskiness' lmao = perfecto :) i have way too high standards for such an ugly girl <_< :P

(13) i've recently found another path i'd like to follow. i intend on doing some volunteering either in brazil, argentina, thailand or ghana (yes, i've narrowed it down :P) i think it'll be more thn fun, and i get to hang out with kids. so its all good!

(14) i love history. the idea of the past excites me :P especially european history, its full of every singly detail of life. i cannot wait to walk down paths, go in houses or go down rivers that some lady, gentleman, mistress etc walked, went in and followed. so so exciting!!... ALSO :D it would be awesomely cool to go to a ball :)

(15) i wanted to be a fashion designer once upon a time. i obviously dont look like one, but that's because i follow certain parental guidelines. but i seriously do have a slight panache for the fashion :P hard to believe eh.

(16) i like to paint, draw, sketch.... i'm not good at it :P but i wish i could have that sort of talent. i WISH to visit all the international museums and actually see originals!! aa thrilling...

(17) i think that barry trotter is the MOST insulting thing EVER written!!!! :P

(18) i dont understand racism. at all. i dont get it, can't even attempt to think in that mindset actually. seriously racism in anyway = bullshit... oh wow does that make me racist against bull poop? i ALSO dont understand why people freak out when you say "black, brown, bignosed italian" but its okay for that actual 'race' to say it. i mean if i had to distinguish b/w a caucasian & african-american, i would say "the white/black person" i seriously just mean it as a term, not in any sort of nasty way y'all are thinking 8-). its just stupid when ppl go "fatima!? wow you just said that..." and thn stare at you weirdly <_< i mean if a person is asian and has a dif. eye shape OBVIOUSLY they are asian and have dif. eye shape...... -_-' *sigh* wtv, some ppl are thinking that i promote some sort of 'mild racism' wtv that is... T_T

(19) i find it HILARIOUS when a teacher pronounces my name in a way where its emphasizes the "FAT" portion of it. the reaction in class includes: a) awkward shuffling, b) snickering, c) blushing, & d) ppl asking me whether that's how you're supposed to pronounce my name. i mean, my name isn't difficult. you pronounce all the letters and volia :P how it sounds, well i could care less :P i've come to adapt like many human beings put in situations *sigh* i find it TOO TOO funny thogh :P it makes me giggle

(20) i am a procrastinator. huge HUGE procrastinator. it's pretty bad, but i am learning to become a better person :P lol and change :P

(21) i use ' :P ' ALL the time. actually i use a lot of those faces to try and put emotion behind what i write. i can't say 'you must be joking' for example, without including either a ' :P ' or ' 8-) ' or something to specify exactly what i feel behind that sentence. weird, i know!

(22) i have such an unstably, stable family that i love to hate & love. all parts of my family = best thing that is part of me, even those random second cousins.

(23) i hate spiders, insects, etc. they terrify me and they're icky. yes its makes me the even more stereotypical girl, but whatever. i love video games? does that make up for the missing testosterone?

(24) i think diamonds are the prettiest thing ever. i don't like gold at all. people in libya prolly think i'm crazy.

(25) hmmm.... i want to make #25 exciting, but it won't be :P
i like clean teeth, i believe in the brushing of teeth because they're part of a persons smile which is the most important part of your being, soul & body.

ahaha!! seriously reading back i see that i'm: a) the most average, odd girl EVER! & b) this is basically the length of the persuasive essay that i'm supposed to write, which is supposed to be due tuesday.
lovely :P
