NourHaha!

I can't walk, I have a hard time breathing, and I feel sweaty. I'm sick, I don't even have enough energy to pick the phone and call someone. Ok, simple, let me just go up to my mom, she'll make me that tea I always refuse to drink, and get comforted in my dad's lap as he makes dirty jokes to get mom mad. Let me get a warm blanket and go lie on his lap, I could use a dirty joke to laugh about right now, while mom gets angry about making the tea I never finish, and hear the same lecture about how I won't feel better if Idon'tt listen to her. Let me go whine to our nannies about how my stomach hurts right now, maybe I'll get a free hug, or a different lecture about karma's revenge for giving them a hard time every morning and not waking up for school. Let me call one of my sisters-in-law to use and abuse them into taking me out, or order me a pizza, because I'm "in pain". Let me go eat lots and lots of chips and call one of my best friend...

I lost my breath, but I didn't have time to care, so I kept running like a maniac on the main street. FOUR ALARMS. How can FOUR ALARMS fail to wake me up? HOW? I was grateful for falling asleep last night without changing into my pj's, and placing a pencil right next to the door so i don't forget. It's like i knew I'd need everything in front of me the morning after otherwise I'll just show up late AND without a pencil. I saw a car pass by, all I wanted to do was jump on the back and make it drive me to where I wanted to go. I didn't have a jacket on, it was 15 c, but I was almost sweating from the running, 10 minutes has passed, and I’m 20 minutes late. I'm never gonna make it. But I studied so hard. I stopped. The air that went into my lungs HURT, the air was so cold; I hate running. I look at the building, it's right there , c'mon! Three minutes of running and you'll be there. I push open the door. I breathe hard, panicked, scared, and t...

Say my Name. A woman (irregular plural: women) is a female human. This is what dictionaries read, but, What is a woman today? A dictionary can define every word in this world, but doesn't necessarily mean its what the world lives up to or how we do. What does being a woman mean to you? I forget I am a girl, up until  I am reminded by this cruel male-dominated universe. Yes, I have a role, a very important one. If I'm not the one to change this then I'll fail with making women's lives any better. For centuries, people (I don't write 'men' because everybody contributed by either making the rules, enabling the rules, or following them) have followed a slippery path on the way a woman should be, and this is how we should live, and there are certain standards we have to live up to, and if we fall back or change certain things, then we might as well hang ourselves before our father does. Say my name. "I was raped in the bathroom. I keep thinking that if my f...
