"what if i told you, who i really was, what if i let you in on my charade, no more masks and no more parts to play?" - jason walker.
seventeen years ago, my parents decided to call me layla after the eric clapton song. layla means 'dark beauty' and comes from the arabic, just like i do. even though i am officially an egyptian and have lived in cairo all my life long, i am a mix and match of all possible arab nationalities. i just prefer to say i'm arab.
darkhaired, 5'10" and with an ability to get a tan after five minutes in the sun. i speak arabic, english, german and french fluently. i fulfill every characteristic of my zodiac sign, leo: stubborn, proud, loyal, independent, melodramatic, sensitive, warm. i'd like to believe in love, but i'm too pessimistic to. sienna miller, rachel bilson and the olsen twins have definitely affected my taste in fashion. my life consists of books, music, food, photography, fashion, interior design and traveling. i love rosie huntington whiteley and mila kunis, early mornings and late nights, the russian and arab culture, rings and nail polish, leather and lace, ankle boots and flip flops, apple and moleskin, victoria's secret and oasis, politics and sociology, movies and inspiring quotes, quality time and parties, big cities, islands and the coast, how i met your mother and the o.c, wavy hair and aviators, vintage cars and roadtrips, coffee and red bull, perfumes and eyeliners, coffee shops and drive-thrus, shorts and sweaters, ryan gosling, jon kortajarena and james franco.
"i'd rather run the other way than stay and see, the smoke and who's still standing when it clears." - the fray. //
