VISUAL VINYL

BANG BANG GIRLS

THE CLUTCH



5 Girls + 7 Bottles = Troube / BK style cookout

Well... friday was not going well on this end.. dealing with the she-devil herself... (my last day was Thrusday) and this un-godly woman trying to hold my check for no reason.. needless to say... I was looking forward to Friday nights out with the girls shabang! Started off with Pre-Game at Kelly Kells spot... (Dont get it twisted.. this is the epitome of the A in the flesh..) So everyone brough a bottle... grey,bombay,rum,gin.. whatever... it worked... between Kells,Sash,Ash and Moi... we downed a bottle and half of the Belve... good times... and since good ol fadi was the least faded... I ended up driving.. frist time in NYC.. thought I was gonna die.. but you know.. Im a trooper took one for the team...

1st stop... Austins house party in "SpaHa" aka SPANISH HARLEM... ( sup with this genterfication process and how folks wanna change up names of shit.. like Harlem is now SOHA?... WTF?) Good times.. ran into my chic "Ms.Conner if your nasty"... saw the homey Clyde in the spot... from there its down to Chelsea... aka Meatpacking district... (aka where Remy shot her homegirl of 15years which is a damn shame!)

2nd Stop... Estrada... Ran into my homegirl Deavin... but.. whats interesting about NY ... is that if your tipsy.. they wont let you in the club.. even if your 5 cute girls.. they dont give a fuck. NO go.. and there was no denying that all of them ( not I .. driving in the maddness sobered me up) were wobbeling,shaking,and falling....

3rd stop..Aer... still drunk no go...

4th stop... Hotel Gansevoort.. dope spot.. met Mr.KG owner and Creator of Bling H2O.. and a movie/tv producer.. so you know I sobered up and went into biz mode.. so dont be suprised if you see Bling H2o at my next party.. *wink*

called it a night at 430 am... and here are the images from that good ol night..



Then on sunday we headed over to Prospect Park for a classic cookout BK style... the girls all came out to play.. Jill, K.A, J.Pauline, D, and yours truly...

Something is missing...

....and it seems liKe Im on my way to finding it

I got the call on Friday (7.6.07) that I would be going to Detroit on Saturday(7.7.07) for an offical site inspection for this event im working on for 7.20.07... so like the trooper I am ( I say that in the most cynical way possible) I sacrifice my weekend and wake up at 6am to catch a 830am flight...Its all good.. cuz guess what this chic was about to make something out of nothing...With Dearborn not to far.. I knew I wanted to be surrounded by my kinda "folk"
Now.. with me being Middle Eastern and all... Dearborn is like where every Arab landed when they came to the decesion to move to the US. Its like someone was playing pin the donkey and they pinned Dearborn, Michigan as the main destination where all the immigrants could take over....

Fresh off the plane, in my rental with the GPS system I get directions to go to Dearborn.... straight off the exit.. I get this wave of pride,saddness,happiness,and ultimate home sickness... all the signs were in Arabic... everyone was speaking Arabic....Arabic music was playing all around... I mean it was Arab overkill.. and I LOVED IT!!! I didnt realize how much I had missed home... (not as in the A... but as in Jordan) I miss walking the streets and hearing the mid afternoon prayers.. I miss the bodegas and the 25cent colas, I miss my cousins and I miss tea/coffee hour where all the women sit on the patio and gossip.. I missed the innocence.. I miss the simplicity... and it just made me realize how bad I want to be back in that enviroment.. How I have become so westernized...(ooohhh Touche) and how if and when that day comes.. I think I will truly be content with marrying my little entrepenure , good arab, muslim husband, having kids, taking them to Arabic school on saturdays.. and living the simple life... key word simple... If only my family can read this now... they would think the holy spirit had taken over my soul and body... shock would be an understatement....


In my last hours in the "D" I went to the Arab-American National Museum... and this was one of the paintings I saw.. I thought I had taken a pic of the rest of the pic.. but no go.. bascailly it was an Arab girl dreaming of being white with blonde hair and blue eyes.. and then she looks in the mirror and sees what she really is... exotic and gorgeous just as is...


The only thing fucked up about our mentality is the standard of beauty....*sigh*


The best bakery since I dont know when.. I bought so many spices and things to bring back home...


How taboo.. the word Sex and Middle.. in the Middle of Dearborn aka Little Middle East... by chance you say??? Things that make you go Hmmmmmmmm?!?!


One of my all time faves... Kahlil Gibran.. if you dont know... you better get familiar... You live by your bible... I live by "The Prophet" and the Koran...BET.






On a side note... at dinner.. my friend Kelly who works at a PR firm as well, was telling me about this new client that they have took on .. and the program is to bring awarness to the Isralei and Palestinian youth wanting to join forces and have one voice... literally not 5 minutes latter I get an email from Nari ( hi cuzzo ) with this link....now thats a sign..

Me,Myself,and I....


I walk these streets, yes with flip flops... I know I know.. its NYC and these streets are pretty disgusting... but hey.. whats a girl to do.. heels are out of the question and I have yet to leave the workplace at a reasonable hour to go get some sneakers .... hmmmmmmm .... I should add sneakers to my birthday wish list...

Allow me to re-introduce myself....

*Even after you read this.. You still don’t know me :)

My favorite show is Quantum Leap, Fave movie is Teen Witch, I only like RED Skittles, I like the Smurfs and Rainbow Brite and collect figurines, I collect stamps from all over the world, Have a love/hate relationship with chopsticks, Im arrogant, I pace when I talk on the phone, I’m neurotic, Im fashionably early, I love dirty boys that smell good, Im HUGE on LOYALTY. (Death before dishonor type of shit), I like my sneakers to be dirty, dingy and smelly...(lmao), I admit I dabble in country and pop (oh so fucking what. you do too.) I’m a hustler. You cant out hustle me. I curse like a sailor, Like Jill said, You can solve any problem you have watching an episode of sex and the city, I have road rage, where the state has actually put me in a 4 week class to control my anger issues while driving the streets. And at the end all I got was a lousy certificate... I cant hold a note to save my life..But it wont stop me from "screeching", I love black nail polish, I live a very purple life style, I enjoy reading, I love learning about the criminal system, cults and gangs. I thrive on conspiracy theories, I love the History channel and CNN, and I can watch A&E all day... I’m not ashamed to say I watch Full House, Saved by the bell, and That’s so raven on the regular...I want to FREE PALESTINE damn it, I don’t want to be rich, then all my cousins, aunts and uncles will bug the hell out of me and I already cant stand 85% of them, I say "Kick rocks a lot",

I didn't drink till I turned 21, and never have smoked that "shit" ever.

I fall and trip all the time. I’m clumsy as hell. When I travel, I normally don't pack till a cpl hrs before my flight.. I forgive and forget too easily..Im working on that.. cuz NO ONE is worth forgiveness that quick.. You need to feel my wrath for cpl days..

I’m such a Fucking Lady, I have manners believe it or not,I cry when I watch Oprah, see an old person eating alone, or a bully picking on a kid. I have the bestest, brightest, beautifulist, loyalist circle of friends/sisters ever (Brit,Sash,Chels,ReeRee, Amira) "All I need in this life of sin is me and my girlfriends "... 

I love my Skully, she’s the most anti-social, stank breath dog ever, but she’s the bestest and she loves me and that’s all that matters..Im an ESL student. I have the craziest, most insane dreams. and 75% of the time.. they come true... I really think I have a 6th sense.. Or that I have psychic abilities but I have not tapped into them fully.. Any psychics reading this.. Help me out.. I need a new hustle.. 

I want to raise my children in New York or London, I want to live on a farm and milk cows, wearing flowery dresses and running barefoot in the fields with daisies in my hair, baking apple pies, minus the cinnamon of course, running after chickens and riding horses and going to sleep at 9 pm..... now that’s a sight to see.... my lucky number is 13 and I have a bad habit of adding up random numbers to see if they equal 13, I have a mixture of ADD/OCD depending on if I’m doing what I want to do or not, I’m convinced I was a pirates whore in a past lifetime. 

I’m NOT funny nor do I try to be (but I must admit I crack myself up) 

I’m spoiled, I’m demanding, I like vodka tonics with 3limes,I fucking hate cinnamon and will throw up if I smell it..I love guns (the one I had got taken away from me, once again, anger issues) I will faint at the mere sight of needles...I LOVE vintage dresses and clutches, Deep down I’m a girly girl, I consider US Weekly and WWD my weekly bibles, not to be mistaken with my 3 other monthly bibles, W, Vogue and V... (Sorry all you religious folks out there.) I love cotton candy, I’m pro masturbation, I like bubbles, bubble wrappers, bubble gum, bubble yum.. Damn it anything with the word bubble...and I still believe that Pluto is a mofo planet!
