DIARIES/. On a rare trip abroad with *both* my parents and my brother, I yelled at my brother and told him “چب" - shut up My mother quickly got mad at me and told me to never say such bad words again and to next time talk more politely (إسكت- be quiet). This maybe explains my fascination with rock and metal music, where I could listen to musicians say words I would never dream to say out loud - but that’s a story for another day. A few weeks ago, my dad called me after I was upset, he shockingly proceeded to curse the people that were making me upset. I realized in that moment that Baharna and Ajam parents have *completely* different parenting styles. حق عائلتي: ادري الكلمة مو حليوة بس التطريزة ليها سالفة، اعتذر الكم. #upcomingartist #madeinottawa #canadiana #instaart #instartist #handmade #inspiring_watercolors #myottawa #support613 #ottawastyle #discoverontario #embroidery #ottawaembroidery #embroideryart #modernembroidery #tatreez #تطريز #تطريز_يدوي #تطريزات #فن_عربي #فن_التصميم #arabiccalligraphy #arabicart (at Ottawa, Ontario)
