I will NOT describe what exactly happened, but, Baruch Hashem, I am alright and it was not something too major or dangerous...no details needed here since I will be as modest about it as I can...it was frightening, shocking and utterly and undenyably DISGUSTING. I will caution all of you to always walk in crowded areas, carry mace/pepper spray, always be alert, never wear too much makeup or too short of a skirt, and definitely DON'T keep quiet...YELL, SCREAM, SHOUT...always carry around a cell phone-even if it breaks, pretend you are on the phone with someone...keep safe, always be b'shalom and stay alert, no matter who, where, or how or why...
 
So, it isn't such a tremendous deal, but yes, today I turn 18. It feels pretty Ok I guess, and I am in a Happy place in my life so, Thank You, Hashem!!
 
Hey Everyone: Sheva, Mommy, Rita, Sara Bina, Shmuel Chaim, Chana, Babula...and the rest of you-love you all...you're the best!
 
Ok, ok, it is useful...arms are up and I was wrong, facebook is quite fun...Yes, it does take up a LOT of your time, but I use it and love it...(Sorry FB for the previous crack) People, don't dispense personal info, though...
 
I used to play cops and robbers with this girl and now she is engaged!! I am going out of my mind with joy! She is the first person that is a friend and not related to me to have gotten engaged. Vort was last night and soooooo beautiful I am so happy for her. 
                                                           Chana and Yaakov Meir, 
                                                       Mazel Tov and ALL THE BEST.
 
Another Jewish Singer famous for her punky yet calm tracks. She is Orthodox Religious and very talented. She runs the kol isha group-ladies only singing group and dedicated the rest of her time to her adorable little ones. Go to her blog to read interviews, check out concerts and more. I personally never heard any of her songs but I do believe they're pretty special since so many people are in love with it. She has a couple of CD's which you can purchase here.
 
I love her incredible album! She has 2 but I currently own only one. FOR WOMEN AND GIRLS ONLY. NO MEN. Aliza is a Jewish, Orthodox composer as well as lyricist and she is soooo inspirational, I love my aunt from Monsey for introducing me to her incredibly uplifting songs and tunes. You can visit her website and buy her CD's here. (I could not find the pic of her other album.)
 
Okay, so you all know that I obsess about poetry, so I just wanted to show every one what kind of obsessions I really obsess about. Please Read this Poem that I have created a while of months ago for an A-Z poetry booklet I was creating...hope you enjoy. (P.S.

SHABBOS- A Poem:
Dressed and ready, quiet and steady, we wait for the queen to arrive.

Peace spreads through our home, creating a tone that cannot be described.

A silence and beauty that gives off a truly, wonderful, magnificent feel,

Of happiness and love, from the Great One Above, celebrated with a great meal.

The time that we spend with family and friends is something we all will save,

Within our hearts, so when we’re apart, the feeling will never fade,

A time to be grateful, pleasant and thankful by rejoicing in harmony on this holy day,

Lifting our spirits and filling the minutes with stories of our fathers from back in the age,

Food that we share, to all that are near and may come knocking on our door,

Indulging in pleasure, of all that will meaure up in Shamayim which will restore,

Many wrongs we have done, to the Nobel One, and one day Hashem will grant,

Yes, one day He’ll give us a chance to live and enjoy the Shabbos in His holy land…

I am in love with this piece, hope you will too.
 
So there is this one class I go to for my Graphics Design course and I am so confused. It is a Jewish College but Goyim-non Jews seemed to have enrolled here as well because it offers financial aid and what-not. There is this young married lady that joins our class but she is always 'brought' by her husband. She is Muslim, which does make it understandable, the men always are hardcore-in-charge-or-else type. I feel it's unesassary and just not normal. He peeks his head in to make sure he agrees with the students and teacher. It makes sense, a little, I guess, but when is overprotecive too much??!!?!
 
Okay, sitting here in the College computer lab room trying to get some peace and quiet time. Can't though, there is a group of frum, jewish girls cursing and screaming about boys and random stuff that do NOT require a curse pre of post the word...Besides for this being extremely annoying, it is a chilel Hashem-an embaressment on their part but they make other people think that is how ALL jewish young girls act-which just isn't true. I know these kind of groups and I feel I can't approach them just like that and command them to shut their traps or talk in a more refined manner. Any suggestions??
