Hello Welcome,

My name is Amanda Green. I live in Colorado Springs, CO, USA. I have always been interested in religions, spiritual paths. I am what has been referred to as a "freelance monotheist". Meaning that I am open and odjective to all One-God religions, like Christianity, Islam, Jewidisum(spelling?), etc. I recently had an experience as a Islamic women in the city, not on propuse. I innocently had a scarf wrapped around my head because it is cold and I wanted to stay warm. In my local College (which I attend as a student), I had people moving out of my way and giving me more than enough room. It was a little confusing to me. Recently I made the decision to wear the full Islamic Hijab (head covering) for one of the semesters at my school, though after much thought and rsearch I have actually converted for real. I still question the people around, I mean I wanted to know why people move out of the way, and way I got the looks that I did. If you have any tips for me, please e-mail me at Amanda.Green2008@yahoo.com . 

I plan to write a blog once a week on the things I observe. The adventure will begin in mid january of 2009 (spring semester of college). I also am going to be posting pictures. I want to feel and see the religion. Again if you have any advice for me, please email or leave a message here.  I would love tips on the Hijab and the different ways to wrap it and other aspect of the religion that I need to observe.
