THE PAINTING

Here it is - my original song performed by my friends at a talent show (which we won, btw! great job to everyone else)

The song is called The Painting and stop asking me whom it is about.

ROSTAM LEAVES VAMPIRE WEEKEND, GRADES LOOKING GOOD || etc, etc. JAN 2016

Shocking news came to me this morning via my good friend just after I attended my first concert. Yay.

Telling me someone in Vampire Weekend had left, the name starting with a B, I was in denial. Baio and Rostam both had solo careers but they didn't leave the band. Searched up Baio. Nothing. Vampire Weekend. This is the part where I start weeping.

A Guardian article reading "Vampire Weekend co-founder Rostam Batmanglij announces departure from band". I was in denial. I was freaking out. Was my favourite band going to end up like One Direction (Who also just happens to be that good friend's favourite band)? Did he really just pull a Zayn on us?

On the brightside, Ezro announced that LP4 was in the works. Also Rostam isn't completely ditching them.

Okay more personally, my grades are looking, well, fantastic. I was pleased but you know after finding out the secret weapon to you favourite band has just LEFT you can't really dig yourself out of the grave they've dug for you.

Also managed to do pretty well in football. I was commended for my excellent goal-kicking. Did I mention I'm rubbish at sports?

SPOOKY SIGHTINGS BY ZAHRA || etc, etc DEC 2015

   
I really think this image sums up the disgusting inactivity on this blog lately. ANYWAYS Zahra is back and with a vengeance. Last month was October, truly the SPOOKIEST month of the year, so I've decided to document some spooky sightings.

SIGHTING 1:
MY GRADES

So holidays were about two weeks again but all I can remember was the disappointed look from my mother when she saw my report card. 10/13 As and a disappointed mother. What could be worse? Pretty spooky if you ask me.

SIGHTING 2:
THE LATEST INSTALLMENT OF THE AMERICAN HORROR STORY ANTHOLOGY

I'm a huge fan of the AHS series. So you could expect me to be super hyped about getting the first episode free off itunes. I thought it would just be a thriller, like most of the other seasons. I was wrong. Bring in a guy with a sharp glass dildo raping guests, two guys crucified in a huge mansion naked and bloodied and Lady Gaga and Matt Bomer having an orgy whilst bathed in blood. Fantastic.

SIGHTING 3:
MY DANGEROUS OBSESSION WITH TEEN WOLF

I really thought I wasn't gonna be one of those people who like teen supernatural fantasies but my friends dragged me along to "The Scorch Trials" and I fell in love with Dylan O'Brien. I thought it would be a swell idea to start watching Teen Wolf and now I'm obsessed and I spend my days watching vine edits and scrolling through TEEN WOLF AS CATS twitter accounts. Nice.

SIGHTING 4:
RACISM IN AN INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL???!

Yes that's right folks. We don't live in the post-racial society that everyone claims we're in. Racism, as shocking as it sounds, still exists! Apparently people (and by people I mean the rich, over privileged white kids) at school are sick and tired of seeing Asians walking around everywhere. Well I'll be! Asians, walking around in an International school in Asia! What an abomination! Because weirdly enough, most of the people on this side of the world are made up of Asians! What a shocking discovery, white people! If you're sick and tired of seeing Asian people or POC, move back to Europe. I'm sick and tired of seeing white people complain about that.

SIGHTING 5:
PEOPLE THINK REVERSE RACISM IS A THING!

I'm not even gonna elaborate on this because it's just wayyy to spooky

DYLAN O'BRIEN - STEALING AND RIPPING OUT TEEN HEARTS SINCE 2011

if you don't know who dylan o'brien is, you've probably been living under a rock. good for you. STAY THERE. don't fall into the trap of his jawline, his scruffy hair and his weirdly attractive jawline.

i have spent almost 2 years avoiding teen wolf, the intern (which everyone should avoid, regardless of the fact that dylan is in it.) and the maze runner. but then it all changed. i'm anti-social and extremely introverted so i thought it would be a good idea to hang out with friends! yes, friends, the people who at one point in your life will stab you in the back. fantastic. ANYWAYS my friend invited me to go see maze runner: the scorch trials. i was really nervous because of all of this time i had spent avoiding dylan was about to go to waste. i went anyways.

the scorch trials, as a film, wasn't the best, lacking a clear plot and often lost track. BUT ANYWAYS dylan o'brien ripped out my heart and i'm never going back. the club scene made me want to die in my seat and close ups of his face made me want to scream. i kept my cool, because i will NEVER admit that i'm in love with a cishet caucasian male.

next thing you know i'm searching up dylan o'brien interviews and watching the first maze runner installment ALL THE WAY THROUGH. i am entering a new phase that will ultimately ruin me. (good thing i never had an ezra phase. i don't think anyone has ever had an ezra phase.)

if you don't know who i'm talking about, don't make me search up pictures. i can't handle this. 

STOLEN- A POEM

STOLEN

we each painted a picture

yours looked just like mine

stolen from my sketchbook

all the same, even the lines

the only difference was

a little change in hue

they gave you a little star

it wasn’t fair for me to lose!

they gave us a little project

you didn’t do the work

I spent hours doing research

my brain started to hurt.

but then along you came

you took the paper from my hands

you didn’t even move a muscle

and the teacher called you grand.

you wore the clothes I wore

and they said that you looked great

when I wore the clothes I wore

all they said was hate.

you say the things I say

they call you such nice things

but when I say the things I say

I’m not even a human being.
