Go Go Godzeerrrra!
Been away too long... I really can't believe that I didn't get the job in Jakarta and waited too long fro Cairo. Now I have to go back to the States and work in DC. I like DC but I'd rather be overseas goofing off.
I got e-mail from Samar. She said she is now living in Vienna with her husband! How did that happen? She said that he went to school with her in Egypt but I don't recall her ever talking about having boyfriend or anything of that nature at all. ANyway, I guess I can't ask her to marry me now though I was really interested in her sister for a while. I know Sawsan has always like me but she's too shy to be anything but silly around me. I love their family. I wish I were a different man sometimes so I could have a normal life with normal people.
I talked to Aja briefly. I am really upset she won't be able to see me in Japan. Sometimes I get so mad at her mother for being such a goik on these matters. I will have to wait until I get back to the States to see her and that is a shame for both of us. I know she would have liked goofing off all day with me on the trains and seeing all the Asians! I know she has had some identity crisis being half Asian and being raised by her mother and grandmother who are clueless as to what we are like. I know I was conflicted growing up as the only non-white/non-black in my neighborhood. I was always cool with being different but found it a pain in the ass having to deal with idiots who were not clued into a multi-cultural universe.
