Conversations with Y (and Rosie): Name existential crisis
Didn’t you miss these? :)
Rosie: We all have flowery names.
Roba: Yeah, even my name means “hill with flowers”.
Yasmeen: So jasmines and roses can’t survive without you.
Rosie: We need the hill. You’re like the mother.
Roba: Wait. I am specifically a hill with flowers. So, it’s not that you guys can’t survive without me, it’s more like I can’t even exist without you. Without the flowers, I am just a hill. If I’m just a hill, I’m not Roba anymore. I’m just a hill.
Shit, I don’t exist.

You’ll have a pocketful of starlight!
I know I’ve been excessive about music these past two weeks, but what am I to say, I’m in a musical mood.
Today’s happy song:
Oh, joy.

No Doubt the Cranberries are Garbage
Gwen Stefani, Dolores O’Riordan, and Shirley Manson all had a very positive impact on my life as a teenager in the 90′s. With their rebellious attitude, leading-women confidence, and lyrics that were sometimes thought-provoking for a young teen, they made me think about how life isn’t about the Beyonce’s and the Mariah Carey’s. It isn’t about waiting for your soulmate or wiggling that hot butt.
Of course, I was very young then.
But listening to their music can still take me back to that young teen living in Riyadh, looking out at the world beyond the suffocating fakeness of Saudi Arabian compound life with longing. They were a way out of a confinement.
Here are three of my favorite songs to this day:

هناك ضوءٌ لا ينطفئ
“There Is A Light That Will Never Go Out” is by South African artist James Webb.
I am obsessed with Darat Al-Funun’s latest installation, which proudly, loudly, and brightly proclaims that “there is a light that will never go out”.
Indeed, there is always a light. I found mine easily enough as a young teenager; the hazy white light of my online devices.
There is a light that never goes out.
