Am not usually a breakfast person, but today I woke up with hunger saying things to my stomach. Glad that I had baked Zucchini cake over the weekend for some reason, I place some in a dish, poured mango yogurt over it and started to eat knowing at spoonful three I would stop. By spoonful four I had begun to savor it. Realizing that breakfast is after all not a bad thing, It even opened my eyes a little bit more.
There is a tendency for everyone to ask what next after school? I wish I could fully answer that, I mean I have plans but am not sure I want to talk about them. Maybe I just do not like to talk about myself! This is true. I wish that conversations would sometimes take the abstract trend but then I know I would run away from that too. So suffice it to say that maybe its just that time of life, or month when I am irritable and am not sure who I really am.
Today I will bank on studying Human rights in the Middle East, I like my professor she is from the region, she is young and fresh and trying out the class. This does not scare me. I like her because she is all the things that seem to comprise the issues that come up when one thinks of Human Rights in the Middle East, Arab, Female, Muslim. Am raw on issues of Human rights in the ME, well not really. I worked on a research on Migrant workers in the Middle East and have read extensively on refugees and migrants in the ME & Maghreb.
My doorbell rings! Its Rena, my Mexican neighbor, she is looking to find a cleaning lady. She has been away in Mexico for Five weeks and her apartment is reeking with dust and damp. She wants to look around my apartment, she says its amazing and hers is crappy. So I go look and it is indeed crappy compared to ours. I feel sorry for her and help her find a cleaner, but its Eid, so the cleaning lady will not come today!
Am back to my apartment and wondering whether I should go and help her clean, I had not planned to do it, I had planned to study and my Somali friend would tell me I have lost all my Africaness if I do not help out. Lets see how the day goes, sometimes a planned day turns out to be so boring, but I will go along with my plan for now and see what happens in the next three hours.
