About Us
When I was a kid, I believed everything I was told, everything I watched on the television news, and everything I heard on the radio broadcasting. I believed smart kids studied hard math and science. I believed smart kids spent a lot of time watching television every day. I believed smart kids don't ask so many questions in a family gathering.
When I was eager to learn more, more was either soccer or math. I returned home with little information in my head even though I spent the entire day at school. This filled my imagination with nothing except many kinds of calculus and the growing desire for playing soccer. So I studied math, and I excelled at it. I thought excelling in math would sharpen my mind and widen my imagination, but my imaginative senses were either numb or completely deadened by that. I played soccer, and I was somehow perfect at it. I was sharp at dribbling the ball past a swarm of defenders, which made me score goals several times. Consequently, as a team, we won so many tournaments and were so happy. However, the winning tournaments didn't widen my imagination, either.
One Monday morning, I was desperately in need of writing a letter, but when I held a pen between my fingers and looked at a white sheet of paper that laid on the table in front of my eyes, I was unable to write anything. My hand Read more...
What's New?
The Moroccan Train Service
I do not think the train service in Morocco will ever be better. The service is horrible day after day. In Mohammedia train station, for example, the train is more often coming late in the morning, leaving hundreds of government workers without a plan. Sometimes the announcements say that the train is coming at a specific given time, but when the time comes

For so many years, Cinema Najah was one of the perfect places to go to in a city of Morocco named Mohammedia. Many people found nothing as exciting as an afternoon of going to the movie theater alone or with friends, especially on a Thursday when the new big movie posters were glued on Cinema Najah's walls.
Cinema Najah had two kinds of tickets, th
From Terceira Island to the City of Mohammedia
Strangely, the small Terceira airport appeared as dark as midnight as the airplane from Toronto touched down on the tarmac. It was unusually silent across the entire place. As we got off the aircraft, the absolute silence of the place gave the impression that the weather was unusual, even though it was warm, windy, and humid. We landed around 11:20 p.m., bu

My name is Septa, and I would like to share my true story. My story happened a couple years ago when I went for work to Saudi Arabia. I did not know much about the job conditions, but what I was told was that I would be working for a Saudi family, helping out with the daily chores. I accepted the job because I could wash, iron, and cook. I could sew and men

In the wee hours, a strong wind was gusting from the north. No matter how we tried to keep our body temperature warm, we were shivering like leaves prior to a storm. Some of our body parts were numb. Nadya, who was the only girl in the group, bent down to her knees, making several deep sighs as if she was telling us she was done. She was finished. We could

Recently I have visited one of the Winners stores looking to buy several clothing items. It was on September 8, 2025, and the store I visited was at 260 Yonge Street, Toronto. After almost two hours of searching, I finally found three items that I liked. The items were my size, and they will cost me slightly above $100 with the taxes. I waited in the line f
