I wish I had curly hair; I wish life was not as complicated as it is; I wish traffic didn’t exist; I wish to retire pretty soon; I wish to tone my trouble area; I wish wars never existed; I wish the world was a much safer place; I wish Palestine was never occupied; I wish to live there someday without feeling ‘out of place’; I wish there weren’t that many dumb people in powerful positions; I wish to find the perfect pair of jeans I’ve been looking for the past several months; I wish Sayeda was not that annoying; I wish Lilian could be a little bit mean; I wish Ranya was a little bit more fun; I wish Maryam would wake up; I wish Beesan would stop watching those shows; I wish Rihab wasn’t as deep (and annoying as a result); I wish some people were just a bit more understanding; I wish people were a bit more sensitive to others’ feelings; I wish weekends were 4 days long; I wish everyone happiness, peace of mind, joy, success, love;  I wish upon a star; I wish upon many things but for now I wish I can get the hell out of here!
