Last night was fun but I wasn't sure I wanted to go because it's starting to feel routine. Don't get me wrong I love Karaoke but we go every Tuesday. I think it's time we start shaking it up. We met a guy from Egypt named Max. He was really cool he's the one opening the I-Hop he has two houses in Egypt one in Cairo and one in Alexandra. It was refreshing to meet someone who's not "Americanized" not to mention his hot accent. He was so polite, nothing like guys you usually meet in a bar. It's nice to see manners still exist. With every new guy I met lately my faith is slowly starting to be restored in men. My mom stopped in because she thought I was going to sing and Max told her anytime she wanted to go to Egypt she had a place to stay. She asked how he had gotten to American and Joseph said he rode a flying camel what do you think.
Max was talking about how people ask me the dumbest question (not my mom she meant was he here in school). American's are so self righteous sometimes. We think we're the most advanced country That we're better than everyone. Which is really dumb because it's keeping some people from traveling and seeing this beautiful word because they think everyone outside of American are heathens. Sure there are third world countries but we're not the only one's with electricity and running water. We're so dumb sometimes.
Max kept saying God bless you so my mom asked what religion he was to which he replied Muslim. So she asked if he even believe in God to which he replied Allah is God same person different name. She then asked what he thought about 9/11. He said anytime you kill innocent life it's wrong and that what they did was stupid. He said that the U.S. killing innocent lives isn't making it better. That it's two wrongs and that they will all be punish by God. I was an interesting conversation. It's nice to have met someone new. It makes me want to travel.
I'm feeling a little more optimistic about the world in general.
we went to wal-mart to get somethings after we left karaoke (no I didn't sing) then ended up at the hop in. Which is funny cause we always talk about the dumb asses that hang at the hop in. The kid who works there is awesome his names Taf, Beth likes to call him Taij. He's a really cool kid. We went over there to hang with Jay (who is also awesome) and ended up staying for like an hour. We've been doing that lately on our lunches (which is at 2am) not sure what started it not sure why but where else are you going to go that early in the morning?
anyways so I'm feeling better before karaoke last night was rough and I almost slipped up. I was laying on my floor listening to Deftones. I wasn't crying this time though. I don't know if I was numb or if I was feeling so many feelings one couldn't escape. So no tears this time regardless. I just hope I stop feeling lost soon it's driving me nuts...
Lost but optimistic...xx
