p4: you tell him girl
p134: the israeli-palestine conflict, what a lovely school topic
p185: she’s very judgmental. i did temporarily forget that muslims generally don’t kiss before marriage but shirin is american and it’s her faith so just let her do what feels right
p214: navid! what a wingman
p216: ooft aren’t they a little young for “what are you wearing”
p229: of all the teenage immature things to do, this is just messed up
p237: oh now this really just takes the biscuit, and only one year post-9/11 too
p285: the coach deserved that honestly
