Zaki's Humble Abode

These are my least favourite cartoons. I figured I'd make a list since I love cartoons. NOTE: If you like any of these cartoons, don't be offended. I know that some of these (Family Guy in particular) do have sizeable fanbases.

13. The Karate Kid cartoon. As a fan of the movies, I didn't really like the cartoon. It was just another cash-in, and it was too far-removed from the movie. I wish they included more of the movie characters that we actually recognised (Johnny Lawrence and ...

I haven't told you this before. You might find it weird, or bothersome.

When I first moved to Newcastle, I faked my heritage. I'm not kidding - I pretended that I wasn't Lebanese. It was back in 2008. I had known what the people in Sydney think of the Lebanese, and I thought that people in my new hometown were going to hate me.

Yesterday, I helped my paternal grandparents clean out their attic. We got rid of a lot of the stuff they didn't want, but the stuff they did keep was amazing.

I mean, I'm still trying my best to make my Pokemon good for the PWT. I don't want to forsake my Black 2 copy just yet - ...

I admit, I have been stressed out lately. You probably noticed from my rants in my blog.

There was a big fuss over my grandfather's oldest sister, Alia, who had been suffering from dementia. She passed away three days ago at the age of 89. She lived back in Lebanon with her youngest daughter.
