when i first started at hidaya i hated wearing the hijab. i found it itchy and i absolutely despised wearing it during gym class. i also thought it looked awful on me and in the first two weeks i was always styling my bangs and letting them out at the front so that everybody knew i had nice hair. talk about being insecure. but then i got to know the other kids and it no longer felt awkward. i got used to it and i met girls who were wearing it full - time outside of school, like, voluntarily, and i started to really respect their courage. i was even a bit jealous because there i would be, ripping it off as soon as i was off school property, and there they would be, calmly and proudly stepping onto a train filled with students from schools all over without so much as a hint of fear or doubt. they looked so at peace with their identity and everybody got to know and respect them on their own terms. - does my head look big in this? randa abdel - fattah what is the narrator’s tone regarding the other girls at school? admiring arrogant grateful condescending
