Perfect! I'm writing it now
EDIT:
Here's the summary:
His maternal grandfather left Damascus when he was 15 years old on the back of a donkey, and he went to Ellis Island where, once in the United States, he built his new life.
Same thing, his paternal grandfather who left Georgia to go to the Middle East concluding agreements pioneering. After 20 years, his parents met on Fifth Avenue, waiting at the traffic lights; after a week they got engaged and when her older sister born, they moved to France and finally to Lebanon where he was born.
His mother did not want her children to grow up in States because it was not a right country due to the exaltation of the wealth and competition.
He and his brothers and sisters, however, have always felt the U.S.A. and living in Europe, they were able to see a form of racism towards this country as Americans were "fat and stupid", or "rich and poor". But now things have totally changed. In fact, for him there is less anti-Americanism.
In his time, the U.S.A. was humiliated because 11 years of military engagement have destroyed their self-esteem, forcing them to change their way of being "Knights of the free world."
But in the end they were the only ones to suffer the most serious financial crisis we've ever been while China is getting stronger and it's the new target for criticism. According to him, America is no longer afraid and it is therefore considered as all other countries, and now Europe can see its merits.
Little by little, the U.S. are in recovery: unemployment is falling, the growth chart is increased and, by 2030, it will achieve energy independence. This could be a turning point towards the Middle East.
In the end, we do not have a precise idea of U.S.A. because in the past, Americans were seen as good but with Bush, who called the antagonists " the axis of evil", everything changed. He adds that those who are too positive about U.S.A. is considerated an ignorant cowboy. Today, Americans love to make fun of theirself: just watch movies and TV series such as Family Guy or American Team. By Obama's speeches to the episodes of Homeland, USA is sold as a country that can admit mistakes and tries to put to good use the lessons. Finally, he thinks that USA will change again, in fact, he expects a Latin American president during his life in order to attract people with his values in this beautiful country like his grandfather, in the 30's.

2013.01.24 @ Star Academy, Parisfirst, after all the photos and screen captions of yesterday. i really was like
now, is that his new iPhone, or it's borrowed? cuz i've read that he lost his iphone and ipad it's that true or are just rumours?
EDIT: is there any threat about star academie ? it's just that i couldn't see it yesterday and i'm too busy now >.< i guess that a threat would be the right place to find photos and videos after

oh and i was forgetting some fandoms: The Walking Dead (AMC's) and tim Burton
-
I've always put the two together' date=' but I can't resist getting technical because LotR is the series and the hobbit technically goes alone.
K, night night! [/quote']
i've always considered The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings and The Silmarilion as a series. i haven't read the silmarilion yet but i've been told that it's like a prequel of LotR, just like The Hobbit
-
Woohoo' date=' avengers fan! god, I love tumblr. <3[/quote']

~ Sherlock (less and less the show lately' date=' more and more canon)
~ Doctor Who
~ Supernatural (does this really count yet? Idk, just started the second season.)

~So then with music included there's also Mika
~ and MCR sometimes
~ Nerdfighteria
I don't know if I missed anything, my head hurts and I'm tired, but I think that's all.. [/quote']

You wish:mf_rosetinted:
People didn't like the video but I actually loved it maybe not right away but still
i don't love the video, but Mika looks so
-
WooooOww!! Impressive! Were you in a traveling theater, or a city based production? I worked with Broadway for a bit. I love theater!
well, it was just one show u.u at my town and for free. we were suppoused to repeat it at least once but well
woow Broadway amazing *.*
-
That's fabulous! What were dressed for?
for the musical based on The Nightmare Before Christmas, i performed as Sally it's a backstage photo, before going on stage
Thats amazing!!!thanks
-
Oh my gawd. Nightmare Before Christmas. That movie is so perfect.
it is
and... well... nobody asked for it... but... i have to...
me as Sally ^^
....it took me almost three hours and half a bottle of alcohol to remove permanent marker from my arms and legs
-
That would be an amazing career! I would love to be a musician, but I think a novelist would be my second choice. Then a psychologist. I think you would be good at a multitude of things in a multitude of different fields. I'm excited to see what you end up doing in the future.I would love to work into some of that. However' date=' I am frightened of choosing a profession.[/quote']
ok, i know i already sayd goodbye two times but dafkhdbzkuhbaerkuab
i'm a biomedical engineer ok, almost, i must finish my thesis first
until i was 18 i wanted to be a sound engineer, but my dream has always be to be a singer. i quit on wishing to become a sound engineer cuz, blah, reasons; i applied to several engineers on the best university of my town, and i was accepted on biomedical engineer. now i love it, i guess that it choosed me cuz i didn't even knew what biomedical means when i applied to
anyways, one of my proffesors always tells me that undergraduate studies are not enough for making a good proffesional. you must do other things, out of the university. then, he congratulated me when i told him that i perfomed as Sally on a musical based on The Nightmare Before Christmas [my fav movie] .. the point is, you must like your profession, but that doesn't mean that you must quit doing everything u like
aaand i'm afraid that if i say goodnight again, i'll be here till the morning

Thank you. It certainly is an experience. Im happy for your friend! I'm having a girl. How old is her son?Its alright. It wasn't really expected to work out. We were never really a "couple". Its complicated. She's actually going to another family after she's born (Im barely 17), but I jst know she's going to have an excellent life.
My friend's son it's just 3 weeks and my friend is 25 she hasn't finished her undergraduate studies yet tho, and yes, the baby wasn't planned either, but i'm quiet cuz her boyfriend loves her and well he's almost a doctor xD ... btw, i'm an awful friend the last time i saw her was when she had her baby. gotta visit her soon .. but i'm not good with babies i can't understand them until they're like 6 years old and i'm too afraid to hold the baby boy in my arms cuz i've never do it before and i'm afraid of breaking him
well, too many things in life are complicated i guess too many >.< I'm glad to hear that your baby'll have an excelent life ^^ anyways, i think you won't really know if it'll be an excelent life for her until you know that she likes her life however, do you plan to be part of her life? i hope so, otherwhise, who will introduce her our MIKA D:
sdfvosfgvlaibl i was just talking about stop procrastinating.
good night!

Eh' date=' people enjoy what they enjoy I guess I really don't know what sort of appeal people see in nicki minaj or Justin Bieber or whoever though. [/quote']
believe me when i say that Nicki Minaj 's listeners are not so bad as the specimens i see/hear pass by my window even considering that i'm not exaclty normal
i'm not pretending to be mean with those people calling them specimens it's just that at least here in my country, people with bad tastes on music are not used to use earphones and they just play their music out loud though the speakers of their smarphones, and every inocent victim who's near can listen to them
aaaaand good night. i must stop procrastinating byee
-
Mmmmm. 20 weeks on Tuesday. Wasn't planned, but hey. Gotta take what is handed to you. I wish! He'd be a million times better than the guy I was with you.
aawwe congratulations!! it may not be planned, but becoming mother is one of the mos beautiful things that a women can experiment. I'm not a mother but i know cuz my best friend is, and she's so happy and filled with love cuz of her baby boy and i'm sorry that "the guy you were with" isn't as good as Mika .. ok, that's impossible to any man on earth ahaha but at least your baby will listen to good music
-
I'm listening to Virgin Radio while i'm writing my thesis cuz i don't know any of the songs they play cuz they don't play MIKA so often and i don't understand anything they say
-
Well by that standard I might have the best music taste in the world
see? it's not that hard. i can't see why there are so many people with the worse taste in music >.<
I'm alright now. I thought I was having contractions' date=' but ended up being false. Just from something I ate, apparently. All better now. Plus, one of my mother's friends might be having her baby soon! Yeeee![/quote']are u pregnant? is Mika's ? xD
