About Me

Well...as you read my name is Khadija...and please don't think I'm snobby when I say that no one says my name right. They pronounce it as if it were some ghetto concoction made by a mother and father that wanted to make their baby unique. No. My father was Muslim and decided to name me Khadija after the founder of Islam, Muhammed's first, beautiful, intelligent, and most loved wife.

And so that pretty much explains me. No JUST KIDDING! I'm really just a fun loving seventeen year old girl who just graduated and is excited to enter the new and weird science of being a grown-up. Just to try it out, though. I'm going to the University of Southern Arkansas in the fall (SAU!!) with the goal of getting my bachelors and eventually phD in English.

So...thats pretty much everything somebody really needs to know about me on here...besides the fact that my life revolves around writing and always has. Since I learned how to write when I was three I have been spinning stories (mostly dramas) about very real characters in awkward situations. I have always been a strong believer in the theory that a book should slowly reveal the mentality and psychology of its characters. If I havent told enough about myself my writing should shine a light on everything else.

Duces
- Khadija

News Papers

Hmmm...thats a good question. I really dont like any newspapers. Now blogs...blogs I will do. You know what; Newsweek is a pretty good paper to read if you really want to see some borderline impossible shit. And I guess I'm a fan of the star newspapers because I am still eighteen and i don't mind looking at Antonio Banderas's hot bod and Justin T. and all the hollywood hotties. Yeah... I'm still a kid.

Heroes

Lorena Bobbit...just kidding

my ex best friend Jasmine...she's gone through so much and has remained so strong
my sister...she's the best munipulator I've ever seen in action. This just adds to her many social talents. I admire her greatly because of her non chalant attitude about what others think about her and her actions. Though, i've just learned recently that she can be clinically diagnosed with Anti-Social Personality Disorder aka she's a sociopath.
