CINDERELLA: The Untold Version

Man, are all men ass holes! I mean come on...I had a great time with this Prince Charming- if you even want to call him that. We danced, we laughed, and he whispered sweet nothings to me all night. I really thought that this was going somewhere. I’m really not that type of girl-- I swear, but my feelings got the best of me and yeah we hooked up (turns away shamelessly). Yup, I'm a tramp. I fell for the first guy that I met on a Saturday night.


I don’t know what happened, but by twelve o’clock things were getting really hot and we ended up at my place because I knew my sisters and step mother were going to be out of town and I had the house all to myself. But what went wrong??? I kept telling him that I usually don’t do this but he said neither did he. Those kisses—I mean those kisses really did shut me up. I mean the feelings and what we wanted to do were both totally mutual but I never thought that a guy like that would do me wrong like this! He’s a Prince for God’s sake…I thought at least he knew how to treat a lady. I mean he's established, lives with his parents for the time being but I'm sure he can manage a kingdom on his own.


He was totally amazing; it was like he was in my mind! He knew what to do, what to grab and how to kiss but not jabbing his tongue down my throat. It wasn’t like a wham bam thank you ma’am. It was more like pure love making. Don’t get me wrong, just because I’m cleaning soot all day and in a house full of ladies doesn’t mean I was in heat or anything (I didn’t need to get laid but it happened)…it’s just that I was falling for him and it all happened so fast.


Anyways I’m in a panic. After that amazing night of pure orgasmic heaven, I woke up and he wasn’t there. He left. He didn’t even bother to leave a letter. At least give me your number or where I can reach you….SERIOUSLY???? The last time this happened to my friend Tinker Bell her boy Peter fell for another tramp named Wendy. But that was in Never Never Land and this is a Fairytale and for once it should happen my way!


It’s been a few weeks now. I kept calling and sending him letters…but still no answer. I don’t know what to do. I just feel so used and abused. Why hasn’t he called me? Is he thinking of me? Was I at least good? Oh fairy God Mother…what shall I do! As long as I don't get knocked up. Oh snap, it's been.... (flips to her calendar and counts the days) a week now. I think I'm late.

Cinderella faints when she see's the two lines. The End.

Bab Al-Yemen

This picture is called Bab Al-Yemen, which means "The Gate of Yemen." This gateway is what separates old Sana'a from modern Sana'a. I must have taken this picture 50 times. I couldn't get enough of the busy crowds. It was citizens of Sana'a that made the picture look so ancient:)

Jewelry

Yemen is known for its finest silvers. For many centuries Sultans and Princes all over the Middle-East would travel to Yemen to adorn their new brides with the whitest form of all silvers. This is a picture of what is only sold to tourists. Typically, Kings would have their own jewelers travel with them and work with a Yemeni jeweler to begin making the special custom gift for their bride.

Some more pictures of Sana'a

Well I was pretty bummed that the picture I chose while I was in class didn't show up. So I went home and found some pictures that I took myself while I was in Sana'a, Yemen.

This picture is just a candid shot of a walk way in the middle of the market. You get a real sense of what a typical market really looks like in Yemen.

Old Sana'a, Yemen

I found this amazing picture of a candid shot in old Sana'a. This is one of the oldest cities in the world. This city is amazing and I am in complete awe every time I visit this place. Each time is a new experience for myself because I am so captivated by the images that being there in actual time is priceless. Enjoy!
