Are we designed to be meat or plant eaters?




Have you ever wondered whether humans are supposed to eat meat or just have a plant based diet? Well, I have.. and that’s why I decided to search more about it.
I watched few videos and read few articles that claim humans are naturally vegetarians because our bodies resemble plant eaters, for example this video.




So let’s compare plant eaters like Cows, and meat eaters like Lions and humans lets say Me :)


Lions: Have claws
cows: No claws
Me: last time I checked No claws :P

Lions: have sharp front teeth for tearing, with no flat molar teeth for grinding
cows: no sharp front teeth, but flat rear molars for grinding
Me: no sharp front teeth, but flat rear molars for grinding

Lions: have intestinal tract that is only 3 times their body length so that rapidly decaying meat can pass through quickly
cows: have intestinal tract 10-12 times their body length.
Me: have intestinal tract 10-12 times their body length.

lions: have strong hydrochloric acid in stomach to digest meat
cows: have stomach acid that is 20 times weaker than that of a meat-eater
Me: have stomach acid that is 20 times weaker than that of a meat-eater

Lions: salivary glands in mouth not needed to pre-digest grains and fruits.
cows: well-developed salivary glands which are necessary to pre-digest grains and fruits
Me: well-developed salivary glands, which are necessary to pre-digest, grains and fruits

Lions: have acid saliva with no enzyme ptyalin to pre-digest grains
Cows: have alkaline saliva with ptyalin to pre-digest grains
Me: have alkaline saliva with ptyalin to pre-digest grains

So THIS brings us to the conclusion that we are very similar to cows aka plant eaters..

Is that really the case though? well, NO we are unfortunately Ominovors and it’s hard for me to admit that but it’s true humans are capable of eating either meat or plant foods.

See here is the thing, we share something with apes and that is, we both eat what’s available, you would think that apes are plant eaters but No, if there are plants around they would choose that of course but if there is nothing else but meat, they would eat what’s available, exactly like us, we would eat anything that is available for us, because our bodies are built to eat meat and plants BUT THAT DOESN’T MEAN THAT YOU HAVE TO EAT MEAT, you have the choice to choose whatever you want to eat.


And please don't bother me by saying meat is the greatest source of protein because even kindergarten kids know better than that.

I just wanted to make it clear that I am aware that humans are Aminovors and can eat meat and plants and that im not a tree huger, sunshine eater or a strict retarded vegan, but I don’t agree with statements saying that “ we were born to eat meat” cause no one can determine what a man was meant to eat.

As I said we should look at species similar to us like apes, chimpanzees and gorillas and see that our digestive system and teeth can process meat just like those animals but it’s better to eat plants because it’s better and more convenient that’s why it’s those animals first choice, If you offered an ape a piece of burger or a banana it would defiantly choose the banana although it has the option of eating both.

So if the ape is making the right choice don’t you think we should as well?

Huda is becoming a better person..


No one is perfect, and saying that I want to be a better person does not mean in any way that I’m not a good person, but I just want to be a better person, someone who’s good, with a pure heart and has so much love to share with the world.

I believe that there are many things that you can do to become a better person. If you want to become a better person physically, you can eat well, exercise, quite smoking stuff like that, but what’s really important is to become a better person spiritually and emotionally, how do you do that?

The first thing you need to do is stop saying “I”, and just try to be selfless. Do a good deed without expecting a gain from anyone, just do it because it feels good, because it’s right.

My friends and family always tell me that I’m a very sensitive person, it gotten to a point where I can’t watch an emotional scene on TV without crying, everything makes me cry, and if someone is rude to me or raise his voice at me, I get this chocky feeling at the back of my throat and I start crying. I might not look like it, but I’m defiantly the most sensitive member of my family and I believe I got that from my mom.
People always saw that as a sign of weakness and to be honest a lot of people took advantage of that, sometimes people take me for granted because they know I wouldn’t fight back or yell or make a scene. Perhaps it’s a curse, perhaps it’s a blessing, who knows!

I think it’s good to be sensitive, it’s good to sympathize with people, it’s good to cry and be emotional sometimes, we’re humans we’re allowed to feel, that’s how we distangush ourselves from rocks!

How many times have you held the hands of someone your really care about and told them you love them? Weather it’s your mom, your dad, your brother ,your sister or your best friend? When was the last time you did that?

Expressing love is not something to be embarrassed about, and it’s not a sign of weakness, it’s actually a sign of confidence and an expression of how you really feel.
So go a head tell the person next to you how much you love them, my cat is sitting next to me while im writing this and I just told her I love her, and she meawed at me, which I think is her way of saying I love you back.

Trust me it feels good.

Sometimes I just don’t understand people when it comes to apologizing, a lot and I mean it ..A LOT of people especially here in the middle east, see apologizing as a sign of weakness and an indication that you have no dignity, which I think is pretty strange to be honest, because I wasn’t raised like that at all, or maybe it’s my personality, because whenever I go into an argument with someone or I have a fight with a friend, no matter who’s wrong or who started it, I always find myself apologizing, why? I don’t know, I just think it’s the right thing to do. afriend once told me, don’t you have any dignity? Wait for her to apologize first!

That doesn’t make any sense to me, why should I wait for her to come and apologize, and waste days of my life not talking to that person and holding all that anger and rage against her in my heart, it’s just not worth it.

I believe in my heart that everything no matter how big or small, can be settled with an apology, especially if it was coming from the heart.

So if you recently hurt someone’s feeling call them, or go talk to them, be the bigger person, tell them that you’re sorry, trust me, it will feel good when you see that smile on their face.

Help out a stranger, do a good deed, even if it’s so small, like giving a person a chance to pass on the streets, or giving some water to a thirsty cat, or donating some of your old cloths to the poor, or perhaps help out an old lady at the supermarket by offering to carry her stuff, anything.. do anything that’s good, trust me you will feel GOOD, helping others is very rewarding.


Finally something I know works, is smiling .. always smile ALWAYS.. smile to everyone you see, trust me you will brighten up their day. I made lots of friends just by smiling trust me, it really works, besides.. a smiley face is a beautiful face.

I will start doing MORE of what I mentioned above. What about you?

Try it today, try it now.

Finally, no more spitting and urinating at public places!


Have you ever walked around the streets of Manama and noticed reddish/yellowish stains on the walls and corners and wondered what the hell is that? Well I know it’s disgusting but I have to say it, it’s urine my friends URINE!! Now .. what I want to know is.. what goes inside a persons head when he takes his underwear off and urinate in public, how on earth can someone think it’s acceptable to do so!

I simply cannot understand! I mean even cats dig holes in the ground to urinate and then take the time cover it or hide it, cats are cleaner than people?

And what’s up with spitting? I think one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in my life, is people spitting on the streets, it’s not only disgusting it also pisses me off, because we live in a civilized country, people shouldn’t behave this way, and being the person that I am, I try to give dirty looks to some of them and talk to others, and the responses I get are as disgusting as their habits.

Last week I opened the newspaper and I saw something that immediately put a smile on my face.

«بلدي العاصمة» يلاحق «البصق والتبول» في الطرق العامة
يطلق مجلس بلدي العاصمة وبلدية المنامة مطلع الأسبوع المقبل حملة جديدة للحد من ظاهرتي البصق والتبول في الطرقات العامة. وتهدف الحملة إلى الحد من ظاهرتي البصق في الطرقات والشوارع والأماكن العامة، والتبول في الزوايا وبين المباني والطرقات. وستبدأ الحملة بتقييم الوضع الحالي، وطرح النتائج، ثم مرحلة تنفيذ الخطة، بأربع لغات هي: العربية، الإنجليزية، الأوردو، والبنغالية بالتعاون مع مختلف الوزارات المعنية. ومن المؤمل أن تستمر الحملة الإعلانية للحملة لمدة شهر إلى شهر ونصف باستخدام اللوحات الإعلانية على أعمدة الإنارة في الطرق والميادين، وسيتم اختيار صيغ ورسائل مؤثرة تتضمن مختلف الجوانب السلبية على الأفراد والمجتمع صحياً وبيئياً. كما سيتم تسيير دوريات مراقبة على ثلاث فترات بمعدل 6 ساعات يومياً على مدار الأسبوع.

For those who don’t understand Arabic, basically what it says is that Bahrain will start a campaign to stop spitting and urinating in public places, they will start by putting signs in Arabic, English, Urdu and Bengali and there will be police officers 6 hours a day driving around the streets making sure that people are following the rules.

Unfortunately what’s not mentioned is whether there will be a fine for those who break the rules or not, I really hope they do make a fine for people who spit or urinate at public places, and we’ll see how it feels to pay 50BD for every spit and urine stain.

Few days ago I was on my way to my car park leaving the university and there was this guy passing by who snot-rocket both nostrils in front of me. I immediately got the taste of vomit in the back of my mouth. It’s really disgusting how it became normal to see pools of spit everywhere.

Having to step on a spit with my new shoes, doesn’t only ruin them, it also freaks me out! Because a lot of germs and diseases can be transferred this way.

Some retarded guys think that spitting is a sign of being a real man!

In china they think that spitting can make you get rid of bad spirits and negative energies, in Bahrain or the middle east they do it when they’re angry as in "tuf aleek", especially in Egypt you can see in the movies when men flirt or something ladies spit in their faces, it’s hilarious, but totally low class!

Come on people.. can’t you express your anger in a less disgusting way?

Disgusting habits like spitting, can easily be observed in uncivilized countries where people think that these anti social habits are normal, most people who don't have access to proper education are guilty of it, now let’s leave etiquette and proper social behavior a side and focus on the mean issue which is the diseases that can be caused by these habits.

Diseases! The amount of diseases that can be transferred from one person to another by spitting or urinating are huge, most of these diseases are fatal and serious like tuberculosis!..
Just imagin this ok.. a person who has a serious illness spits on the street, you walk by and step on it, you go home walk around with your shoes, you have babies in the house, they lick the floor or touch it.. these diseases get transferred to your kids and loved ones, do you want that? Of course not.

What I’m trying to say here is that if you are practicing these habits, you need to stop because first, it’s not an acceptable behavior, second your image will be ruined and people will look down to you, third this is your country, you live in it, you should care about it and try your best to keep it clean, and finally think about the diseases that are caused by these habits, so before you spit or urinate in public think twice.

I think the government should continue with this campaign and perhaps provide more public restrooms for people to use.

Bahrain washrooms!

I know it's disgusting but someone has to do it, here are some lessons in etiquette regarding washrooms! It's for free so you're welcome.

Have you ever noticed how public washrooms in Bahrain ALWAYS seem like they’ve been hit by the tsunami!

I've never gone to a public washroom and not regretted going there, it's always ALWAYS an experience you will live to regret and i always say I'm gonna hold it in until I get back home but sometimes you just can't!! I have some friends that are welling to develop kidney stones rather than going to a public restroom, which is completely understandable. Lol!

And I'm talking here about the ladies' room of course, I don't really visit the men's room but I think they're somewhat dirtier :P I've heard from a lot of sources that guys tend to forget washing their hands even the most sophisticated classy guys out there are guilty of it! I guess I'll start thinking twice before I shake a guys hand :P

Back to the ladies room, we rarely even use the toilet we just go there to retouch our makeup and gossip, 90% of the time girls are in the washroom they're actually fixing their makeup. Trust me! I'm guilty of that myself :P

Busy women's restrooms are like 'gossip central': "Did you, like, see what she was wearing is she serious! ? Oh my God! I couldn't believe it.... she's like a fashion disaster".

It's good etiquette not to block others from the sink while retouching your makeup. I mean, I do this sometimes.. without realizing!..

Girls tend to socialize in restrooms and somehow that’s acceptable, they talk, gossip stuff like that. HOWEVER men are not allowed to socialize especially when they're using the urinal! You can't socialize while using the urinal you just can't! you can't go like " HEY! shakhbar, nice weather today" dude! You're not here to socialize! leave the guy alone! You can't sing, you can't whistle, you can't peek, AND YOU defiantly can't touch!

Actually I don't understand the whole urinal thing! I mean it's so weird and so not private! How can you "GO" when someone is next to you, is there a rule like.. heheehe leaving space between one urinal and the other! I don't know.. I just don't understand! What about aiming! :P hehehe ok lets just not talk about that.. I guess you master that with practice! What about people who wear thoob! I guess that's just something I will never understand. I mean I have a friend who wouldn't go to the restroom if there is someone near here in the next cubicle! So it's very surprising to me that men can actually do that!

FLUSHING! I can't even stress on how much this bothers me, I don't understand why people don't flush? Is it too exhausting? They invented this human waste disposer so that no one gets to see what you, yourself don't want to see. It's really disgusting.

I find it really disgusting when I walk into a washroom and there is wet toilet paper on the floor, water all over the place, kids running around, liquid soup spelled on the sink and don't get me started on the smell, why can't people be clean when they go to a public washroom, I know for a fact that they will never do that in their own washroom. I just find this completely rude and disgusting.

At the end of the day our prophet Mohammed said (้الله نظيف يحب النظافة ) and since we were in kindergarten we've always been told that النظافة من الإيمان" "

As Muslims we should always be clean and set an example for others because it's a part of our religion, but, why does it seem to me that it's not the case here?
Bottom line is unless you're using a toilet in a 5 star hotel in Bahrain, trust me, it's an experience you will regret for the rest of your life.

Animal testing!


Imagine being locked in a cage and constantly given drugs or forced to do some stupid stuff every time a new product is about to come out, or every time something needs to be tested! Imagine having tubes shoved down your throat, up in your ass (mind my French) or right in your eyes with really harmful chemicals .
Imagine if you were an animal, how would you feel if you had no voice and you were deprived from all your rights and were used for experimental tests every single day and that’s “IF” you survived the tests done to you.

Can you imagine they use up to 5000 animal to test a single chemical in one single experiment! Now these tests are done to prevent harm against humans ok? I understand that but what about those poor animals? Why isn’t there anyone defending them?
I swear to god if someone took 5 mins of his time to put himself in those animals shoes, things wouldn’t be the way they are. Trust me.
A lot of researchers who happened to be animal lovers, came out of ways to test besides animals like computer modeling, improved statistical design and synthetic skin called corrositex, so there are alternatives and I’m sure there will be more if something was said.

I read somewhere that ONLY 94% of animal testing is done to determine the safety of the product while ONLY 6% IS THE ACTUALL RESEARCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously!

And yeah!!!!! Do you know that chocolate.. what is it called MARS? Yeah Mars .. the one with the black cover!!! THE COMPANY THAT PRODUCES MARS is among the worst when it comes to animal testing some animals suffer so much they actually die there! They put animals through hell while testing!
NOW MY QUESTION IS AND IM CAPSING BECAUSE IM MAD!!!!!! WHAT ON EARTH IS IN THAT CANDY THAT CAN ACTUALLY KILL THOSE ANIMALS, I mean if its enough to harm the poor animal why are you selling it aslan!! Can’t you use natural stuff in your candy/food or whatever!
Back in the days when my grandma was alive, they had food, they had cleaning products, they had some kinda makeup and it was all natural, they survived didn’t they? they didn’t have to put animals through hell just to test a new lipstick ! Why do animals need to suffer just because our society has simply gone lazy!

P.S girls if you want to buy makeup, buy from THE BODY SHOP, they’re against animal testing. :) and their products are awesome.

Some animals don’t die from the tests performed but it’s the fact that they suffer from hunger, thirst, isolation and depression that also causes the animals to die.

you guys might think what does she know, she’s just a vegetarian chick who happens to love animals and doesn’t know what she’s talking about, but no, I’ve researched and i read a lot about these tests they actually harm more that they benefit, and even if they do benefit humans to some extent im still against it, and i'm sure nobody is going to stop testing on animals but at least if something was said, they might actually have some mercy in this area and something might actually be changed.

Because.. just imagine.. if it was you in that cold lab, hungry alone and scared. You wouldn’t want that would you? So why innocent animals should be held up to that responsibility just because they don’t have a voice to step up to the human society and say no more I Quit!

Vegetarianism!


Okay, so the reason I'm writing this is because, I honestly cannot stress how much this issue is important to me and how passionate I am about it. I wrote a lot of articles and talked a lot about this. But a lot of people still don't realize the seriousness of this issue. This is my attempt at organizing my thoughts, writing them down, and perhaps even influencing others. So before I start I'd like to explain the term 'vegetarianism'.

There are many types of vegetarians out there and the most common ones are:

- Pescatarian : the word “pescatarian” is occasionally used to describe those who abstain from eating all meat and animal flesh with the exception of fish.

-
Flexitarian/Semi-vegetarian : “Flexitarian” is a term recently coined to describe those who eat a mostly vegetarian diet, but occasionally eat meat.

-
(Lacto-ovo- vegetarian) :People who do not eat beef, pork, poultry, fish, shellfish or animal flesh of any kind, but do eat eggs and dairy products

-
Vegan :Vegans do not eat meat of any kind and also do not eat eggs, dairy products, or processed foods containing these or other animal-derived ingredients such as gelatin.

-
Raw vegan/Raw food diet: A raw vegan diet consists of unprocessed vegan foods that have not been heated above 115 degrees Fahrenheit (46 degrees Celsius).

-
Macrobiotic : The macrobiotic diet, revered by some for its healthy and healing qualities, includes unprocessed vegan foods, such as whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and allows the occasional consumption of fish. Sugar and refined oils are avoided.

Now that you know the types of vegterians, I'll talk about my experiences with them. I was flexitarian basically all my life, cause my mom doesn't cook as much and I have a tendency to eat salads a lot so I ate red meat like once a month and chicken perhaps once a week or so, and I used to eat fruits and vegetables all day long because I just loved it.

Then in my teenage years I started dieting and exercising I used to really care about calories and stuff and I basically ate a lot of healthy foods and educated my self more about it .

4 years ago I watched a documentary on tv about animals and how they are being slaughtered and stuff and I just couldn’t bare it. Then I went a head and read some books about being vegetarian and vegan.

So about 4 years ago I became a vegan for a month. And I must say that was the hardest thing I ever had to do, because I couldn't eat red meat, white meat, fish, eggs, dairy products " CHEESE :( " I love cheese so that was so hard .. I couldn't eat chocolate or ice-cream because they contained milk so I was about to die hahaha. it was basically one month of torture. I didn't miss red meat and chicken as much as I missed dairy products and fish.

So I decided to become Pescatarian so that I can eat fish :D and dairy products but then i couldn't eat fish cause i just couldn't be a part of killing any innocent animal anymore .. I am vegetarian since 3 years now and i couldn't be more happy.

I believe that you need to do whatever makes you feel happy but also try to think about those animals and your health. I wanted to be vegan so bad but I couldn't especially because of the environment I live in and our society. Arabs are known to be meat eaters and without it they'll just die!!. Cutting meat from my diet was really easy however cutting dairy products and fish was really hard. At least I'm trying here okay :P and fish don't suffer as much like chickens or cows.

Why do I think this is good for me?

I think being a vegetarian is good because of TWO things. First your improving your health in ways you can't even imagine, I'll explain later. And you're stopping cruelty to animals which is my main concern here.

Prevent cruelty to animals:




Nobody wants animals to suffer, but it's easy to forget that when they are in our burgers!!! The easiest action a person can take to reduce animal suffering is to simply stop eating them .

Around eight billion animals are killed for food every year in the (U.S. alone ) -- a number greater than the entire human population of the planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Animals are beautiful creatures, they are meant to eat, drink, love, play and simply enjoy their lives in a big farm where they can move freely and be exposed to the air and the sun.

But this is not what's happening, animals are being raised in cramped confinement operations instead of big green farms .. a process called factory farming CHICKENS are crammed into cages with no free space they can't even move their feet, they are injected with so many hormones and they're so fat that their feet cannot bare the weight so alot of them have broken legs and injuries! Chickens are also DEBEAKED and that means their beaks are removed so that they don't peck each other to death. They are also completely pumped with various powerful drugs to kill diseases resulting from filthy living conditions and to also make them grow faster. That’s why I think vegetarianism or veganism are easy ways NOT to participate in this kind of cruelty.

Islam's way of slaughtering:

A lot of people disagreed with me and said, well that happens in none Muslim countries. But we have the "Halal" way of killing. Yes we do have the "Halal" way of killing but is that being implemented in our Muslim countries? Or if I may rephrase, is it being implemented right?

Our profit Mohammed had always talked about animal rights and about preventing cruelty to animals, and he always insisted that when killing an animal like for instance in 'Eid Al Adha' there must be rules or steps.
For example you should pet the sheep on it's head, play with it a bit make it feel comfortable and most important DO NOT slaughter the animal in front of other animals and always use a sharp Knife to make the process faster, easier and less painful to the animal.
Now this is perfect. But unfortunately this is not what happens, as I saw on TV with my own eyes. How they kill the sheeps on eid. They gather many sheeps in the same place and kill them one after another while other sheeps are watching and screaming so loudly you can actually see their eyes pop out with fear and anger. When we slaughter the sheep while it's in fear and anger we are harming ourselves as we are eating all these negative emotions so therefore we become angry and negative. Just imagine how the other sheeps felt while watching their friend being slaughtered in front of their eyes.

Our profit Mohammed asked us to something and what's being done is totally the opposite.

Here are some of our profit's sayings:

( لا تمثلوا بالبهائم , لعن الله من مثل بالحيوان)

( من رحم ولو ذبيحة عصفور , رحمه الله يوم القيامة)

(عذبت امرأة في هرة حبستها حتى ماتت فدخلت فيها النار , لا هي أطعمتها وسقتها اذا هي حبستها, ولا هي تركتها تأكل من خشاش الأرض)

(إياكم أن تتخذوا ظهور دوابكم منابر , فإن الله إنما سخرها لكم لتبلغكم إلى بلد لم تكونوا بالغيه إلا بشق الأنفس , وجعل لكم الأرض, فعليها فاقضوا حاجتكم)

( أما بلغكم أني لعنت من وسم البهيمة في وجهها أو حز بها في وجهها)


Being healthy:

Being vegetarian actually makes you feel good inside and outside. Your digestive system will improve tremendously :P and you will feel clean and energized all day long. I remember that month when I went vegan, it was soooo hard but! i felt really light and I was breathing easier ,feeling good and smiling all day long, im not kidding it felt amazing because I was eating a lot of fiber and raw food and consuming loads of vitamins and minerals . Now that im back on fish and dairy products it's not quite the same. But it's okay as well. I do feel light sometimes and I absolutely feel much better than before when I was eating meat and chicken.

Vegetarians are less likely to get cancer, heart diseases diabetes or osteoporosis and are far less likely to be over weight! They also have a lot more stamina and they consume far less pesticides in their food, and their immune system is more than amazing.

At the end this is your body, and you choose what or what not to put in it, but every time you eat do some thinking and let your conscious decide weather you want to put this peace of meat in your mouth of not.

Chewing!

Here is a random fact about me.. I don't know if I should call it a fact or a problem .. Well.. It's a fact and a problem . A problem that affects my everyday life. and that is.. chewing. I… CANNOT… STAND listening to people chew their food.. It is my biggest pet peeve! I can't even stress how much this bothers me. In family gatherings like on Friday I focus my attention at anything else and I sing in my head just not to listen because, just imagine the noise of 20 people chewing.. ! The worst part about it.. is that ..even when people know this bothers me, like my family and friends, they try so hard not to make any noises while they chew.. but i still hear it. I think I have super hearing or something , and it's awful. Sometimes i can't eat in the same room because I'm so agitated that day. i know this is extreme , but it makes me want to rip my hair out, and slam my head against a wall.
oh, and slurping a drink (dad) , lets not get me started on that one....... it's so loud I could hear him while am in my bedroom and he's all the way in the living room. Seriously!

Loud chewing is disgusting, especially bubble gum it can be really loud .. I think chewing gum in public is simply rude! I do chew gum in the car or when no one is around I mean chewing gum is fun but it can be very annoying just imagine having a burger bite in your mouth while shopping or walking on the streets, that doesn't look so good does it? It's the same with gum. I only have one friend that doesn't chew loudly (zanob) .. only one! How sad is that.. I guess that’s exactly why I like eating out with her. I believe that people chew loudly just to get people mad because no one is his right mind would think that it's normal or okay.

I can't stand it when people talk with their mouth full, chew loudly, smack, slurp or chomp, or chew with their mouth open and worse of all is when they chomp their food, gulp their drink, smack, belch.. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah !! and.. then simply take another bite. Ugh.. I mean come on we're not animals!

And the lamest excuse I've ever heard was when you have a new piece of gum, you really need to chew really really hard to break in well and that requires lots of chewing and therefore lots of noises.. Seriously? That’s your excuse?
I'm not trying to be mean or anything. But that's just completely annoying, rude and disrespectful to the public.

Lilly!

So I was thinking about what should my first blog post be about, and the first thing that popped in my head was Lilly, my cat!

Okay so.. some of you may know my cat and some of you may not. For those of you who don't know her. Lilly is a Persian cat, she's white and gray, she's super fluffy which is not a very good thing to be honest, her hair is basically on my bed, cloths, carpet ..EVERYWHERE! , she sheds a lot! Ugh.

Anyways, she's two years old. But she seems older. Maybe because she's large.. haha, I don't like calling her fat because that's just mean, and I blame the fur to be honest! It makes her appear larger than she actually is.

I believe that Lilly is the most beautiful creature that ever existed in this universe. She's just soooooo cute. I mean.. look at her!


Lilly is a great company. I Don't know.. There is something peaceful and serene about having a cat lying about the house. I love my cat so much, words cannot express it.

The only problem is..which I know is very common among cats. Is how lazy she is. I know cats are supposed to be lazy but Lilly! She basically sleeps 20 hours a day. So I came to the conclusion that she's 50% sloth 50% cat!! Maybe 70% sloth and 30% cat!
I don't know!!

And she has this weird habit of eating plastic wraps and receipts! I mean.. seriously! She letterly eats it! Sometimes she chokes and I freak out and then she throws up and I end up crying.. It's just emotionally exhausting to be honest!

I do love her to death though.
Maybe she's a weird cat, but I like to think that she's special ;)

Hello blogging world!

Hey everyone! It's Huda!. I decided that I needed to start blogging- cough cough! Because I figured I need to stop annoying people with my notes and long status's in facebook! And to basically share my idea's and thoughts with the world.

So hello, world.

This will be a great place for me to do posts about things that I'm really interested in without any limitations. I've always wanted a page of my own you know, just writing whatever I feel like writing.

This will also be easier to keep you all in complete touch with topics I like, what i'm doing, and things that interest me at the moment stuff like that, not that a lot of people care about what I do. But it’s a good way to keep you guy's updated. I WILL post useful things you know. So I hope you enjoy my blog.
