Things that I get used to, since I came here

since I came to America,I get used to walk everyday , also I get used to take long naps . When I was in Saudia , I used to listen classes in arabic , but now I have to get use to
listen classes in english, talk to people from other countries, and to read in enlish, it's very difficult; Furthermore I get used to do my homework in the house while my husband is playing his games.
But the only thing that I am never going to get use to, is to eat greasy food!!!   

The Food We Eat

   When I went american restaurant ,The food was full of faty and it was tasty,I think this food is one of the reasons obesity in US .After search I found  obesity rate is 33.8%   .  
Everyone needs to be healthy . However , we cannot eat only one kind of food or faty food . We need a balanced diet . In other , we need food which contains five important substances : proteins ,minerals, carbohydrates ,fats and vitamins .
Energy in is measured in calories . A person need about 40 calories a day for each kilo that he weighs . If you eat more calories than you need , your body stores the extra calories as fat .

terrorism

 Become known to all, the terrorism doesn't have religion . the terrorism Is the political ideas targets some countries . 
On my arrival at  America, I took a taxi. when the driver know that I am Saudi, he said me wwoww" Saudi Arabia in the many of the terrorists"  . I  tried to explain to him and I wanted to clarify his confusion between Islam and terrorism but he didn't want to hear  except that  Islam is terrorism .
I think ,he took this idea from (.Mass media ) was the reason for that ideas . the media's role was  in the great confusion between Islam and terrorism 
Media was dominant and in control of the views of many people and guide them in the direction some time Is incorrect
And in the end ... I want say that the media creates a false emotional situations sometimes ... especially in humans of ordinary people who don't have  deep idea


thank you   
        

Happy birthday lenda

today, it was great  .because we celebrated birthday of  lenda and took many photo with my classmate .when , back to home  .  I have been thinking a lot about birthday . some countries believe that the "Holy day" ,but there are also countries that not believe it .
in Saudia ,before 5-10 years ago . there is not any interest for that day .I don't even remember that I invited my friends to my birthday .I have seen that in the movies hahahaha. anyway , this may be because of religion or customs (lore) ,I don't know exactly.
Now, birthday in saudi has become the most popular in recent year .
Although, birthday tradition are quite similar in some countries to day , not every one clebrates in the sameway  , I remember our neighbor(he 's Indian). he invited us to his son's birthday . the birthday was different .  his son was head is shaved,they believe that protect them from fire (In Indian religion) , remove of the child's hair cleanse the child from of any mistake  in a past . and his son in birthday  goes to school wearing colorful clothes.
    Finally, I like this different cultures, this subject was interesting for me  and wishing you the happiest of birthdays.
 ,,,,,,,,,, Happy birthday lenda ,,,,,,,,,,,
