Deen over Dunya 

The word Deen, is an arabic word with three general sentences, judgment, custom and religion while the word Dunya is an islamic word which refers to the temporal world, aka the world before the afterlife. The meaning behind the sentence "Deen over Dunya" means that we Muslims put our religion over this temporary world which we believes is a test from our God.

Let's say that a muslim is invited to a haram party, needs to wear something revealing to a specific place they have to go to or feel like having to skip a prayer for something so stupid yet important. A good muslim would put the Deen over Dunya in a position like this - with other words, not take the so called haram option cause it's not worth the take.

Muslims believe that this world is temporary and is just a test from God. This is NOT the real world, and when we fall into a position where we have two options to take, it is God that tests us. That's why we put our religion first, which is much more important, over this temporal world.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
