Titles on Tuesday

Hello readers,

It's the first of February, so let's start this month with something cool. That's how the U.S. is feeling: bitter cold and icy. We can stay warm with love and laughs!

Yesterday, resource class made my day. So I had a good last day of January. Why? I'm still working on that memoir I mentioned earlier. I got my resource teacher to read it. Later I offered her to help me with the title. She got the whole class involved. Here are some of the titles they came up with:

  1. Hijabs R Us
  2. Cover Girl
  3. Covered but Not Forgotten
  4. The Great Cover Up
  5. The Oppression of the Unoppressed
Comment: What do you think? Is there anything else you can think of?

I absolutely adore "The Great Cover up", BUT for that piece had such a sweet/ soft rhythm and tone for it, I would go with "Cover Girl".

If you were writing an article blasting away @ the people who call hijab oppression,then I would say "The Great Cover up".

Keep it up, though. You've got talent, ma'shaAllah!

#LoveAThon Mini Challenge 4

Hello Poetteers, This challenge is all about mash-ups. We have to put together our bookish life with a non-bookish passion. It's easy once you know your passion. I love reading and writing stories and poetry. I love music, food and travel. I want to travel everywhere. Backpack in Europe. Explore Asia. Help Arabia. Try all the different foods. Probably with the characters of PAPER TOWNS. They have a good plan in place. You got to listen to music when you're driving or on a plane. UNWRITTEN is a bookish song. Or anything Natasha Bedingfield. Or anything bought for my phone. I just like background noise when I read or write. Yet I like to hang out with the songs I first heard of when introduced to music, instead of the newer ones. Maybe in our travels and meals we bump into my favorite artists and get to do some cool stuff like write, sing or just explore with them. At the end and even during the adventures I'd keep a journal of poetry and what we did. There I got everything I...
