back home..more recently..hijab has become very fashionable. it's a trend now and the majority of women wear it. but I am who I am wherever I am. if anything, I wear tighter clothing when I go.
Why?

Actually, I wear it here and not there.
'Cause everybody wears their dupattas in Pakistan.

Actually, when I wear shalwar kameez here too, I usually just wear a dupatta. Part-time hijabi. But that is hijab for Pakistani people.

Just lately, i dont like eating red meat..if i cook it i can't eat..i want my mommy to come live with me soo bad..

Well, I wear hijab here (mostly square ones) and when I went to Pakistan, I wore the whole shebang, niqab, shayla, abaya when we went out (cuz we were in NWFP, and boys there are super pervy for some reason). The majority of women I saw covered their heads, only dupatta-less woman I saw was a western blondie who was obviously a UN worker. Many ladies covered their faces with their dupata (they don't call it dupata, they call it a chador, since it's bigger and thicker than a dupata) and there was the odd woman in a shuttlecock burqa. In the house when company came I tried to cover my head with just a dupata, but it irritates me to adjust it all the time, so I would wear hijab, and dupata on my shoulders. Hope that made sense.

DREYER'S is EDY's. It changes names depending on region. Breyer's is a different brand and is the same wherever you go.

Did no one notice that the box is the same, just the name is different?

Other brands do this as well. I noticed when I moved to Cali from NY. Hellman's Mayo -> Best Foods Mayo, Arnold's Bread -> Orowheat, etc.
