Take One. Ready. Set. Go!

So I wanted to create another blog to partner with my first blog. First question; do I, a humble college student on my grind have enough time for not one blog, but two? well, Leo of Zen Habits says that a blog is a great thing to have, and his is certainly great!
I like the blog that I already have, Martianism. But, I felt like I needed more. Martianism is all about fiction, its all about the unreal, so what about the real?
A friend once told me that he doesn't like blogs; his reasoning was that it was pointless to waste time reading a webpage about what a certain person did in his/her day. In short, so what, who cares? well, I agree, it's pointless to read about one person's life (apparently there's like 7 billion of them?), but I guess it would be great if you can learn something out of it. So, my goal here will be simply to have fun. I'm not going to post stuff like "woke up, brushed my teeth, washed my face, went to class, ate, slept", I'm rather going to write out the random things that end up in my daily journal, things that relate to me being a student and an Arab, a Muslim.
It's ok if no one reads this, but it would be fun to have people to share cool little things with, from all over the world, and hey, people say I'm good at writing!
So what is this going to be about? well, a student's life is full of wonderful things, an Arab's life is even more full of wonderful things and experiences, so why not share? No worries, no icky little details that no one cares about, rather big pictures and random things that make people smile. Oh, and lots of coffee, lots and lots of coffee.
Take one, got my jacket and my passport, so bring it life :)

(P.S: I needed a photo that grabs attention, so I googled "middle east", and that picture is what I came up with. Camels are cool"
