Changing is good?! really?!

Filed under: My Thoughts — Abeer @ 10:36 pm

Lately, I noticed that everybody and everything around me is changing:
my old friends from school changed, my parents changed, my brothers changed, Amman changed, even the new friends changed!!

or maybe it’s me… i changed!

YES!! i don’t want to change! i liked myself the way I was… and i don’t want to change! but I admit that i am changing!! and there’s nothing that i can do about it! <img src='http://abeer.bayazidi.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /><br /> I just don’t understand!!

it would keep me entertained in my free time.. and it would help me improve my language skills..<br /> so i started asking my friends about what do they read, and what books they recommend for reading.., i got so many suggestions…<br /> I preferred reading an Arabic book, as it’s my language and it would be much easier for me as a start… many people recommended في بيتنا رجل” للكاتب إحسان عبد القدوس even <a target="_blank" href="http://linasturmoil.blogspot.com/">Lina</a> got it on get favorite books list.. so i thought it must be an interesting book!<br /> so i got the book and started reading.., i couldn’t finish page 16!! i always get sleepy before i finish reading one page! Not that it’s boring!! but well.. the first 16 pages are really boring!!<br /> so i thought maybe It’s not my type of books..<br /> <a href="http://sugarcubes.blogsome.com/">Shaden</a> recomended <a target="_blank" href="http://sugarcubes.blogsome.com/2005/09/13/what-is-your-zahir/">“The Zahir”</a>.. so i got the arabic version and started reading it… i was shocked how reading tend to be not boring at all.. i was attached to that book! i really liked it..<br /> i don’t know how to talk about books.. and i don’t know what exactly that i liked about that book… but i liked the idea of reading!!!<br /> many friends of mine “who pretty much don’t read unless they have to study” were asking me why did i start reading!! and told me to have a break from books.. “ma bekaffi el draseh?!”</p> <p>After i officially finished reading my first i was so excited to read the next one… I wanted it to be a different style of books… so i grabbed <a target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/068987474X/104-9795824-2868710?v=glance&n=283155">“He’s Just Not That Into You”</a> from the bookshelve at the bookstore… i knew it was nothing like my previous book.. but i wanted to see what’s it all about since i watched an interview with the writer on <a target="_blank" href="http://www2.oprah.com/index.jhtml">Oprah</a> … i didn’t like it much… not my type of books.. so i decided to read another book by <a target="_blank" href="http://www.paulocoelho.com/">Paulo Coelho</a> “The Alchemist” after many people recomended it… and so i did… and it’s amazing… i really don’t know what excatly that i liked about it… i even got bored reading it as he keep repeating similar ideas over and over… but well maybe that’s what i liked about his book… if i got the idea i really don’t have to read teh rest of the book and i start skipping pages <img src='http://abeer.bayazidi.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p> <p>I never expect myself to read books in my free time.. i thought that was “not kool”… i confess that i was soooo wrong!! reading rocks! so for those of you who doesn’t read… just try to find the right book.. and you’ll love it <img src='http://abeer.bayazidi.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /></p> </div> <div class="feedback"> <a href="http://abeer.bayazidi.net/2006/01/05/reading-101/#comments" title="Comment on Reading 101">Comments (5)</a> </div> </div> <a href="http://abeer.bayazidi.net/page/2/">« Previous Page</a> — <a href="http://abeer.bayazidi.net/page/4/">Next Page »</a>  </div>  <div id="menu"> <ul> <li id="recent-posts" class="widget widget_recent_entries"> Recent Posts <ul> <li><a href="http://abeer.bayazidi.net/2008/03/07/a-warmer-shade-of-grey/">A Warmer Shade Of Grey… </a></li> <li><a href="http://abeer.bayazidi.net/2008/01/26/76/">Generosity by all Means </a></li> <li><a href="http://abeer.bayazidi.net/2008/01/26/salam/">An Exceptional Talent </a></li> <li><a href="http://abeer.bayazidi.net/2006/09/18/leaving-on-a-hijazi-bus/">Leaving On A Hijazi Bus!
