damn... 27.
i don't like this number at all. seems way too old for me.
but, on the positive side... i apparently have a job offer. or something. an english-language syrian magazine is expressing interest in my photography (and only after seeing the relatively unimpressive selection i've posted online). i'm traveling back to damascus to meet with them. i'm trying not to get my hopes up, as quite possibly they just think they can take advantage of me for some free photos, but perhaps upon seeing my catalog (20,000 photos from practically everywhere around syria) they'll be interested in hiring me seriously.
*crosses fingers*
hanadi and i are still in love with each other. i'm not sure what will come of it. she is still terrified of pursuing our relationship because of her family and other obstacles. but everyday she seems to feel more and more that she'll only be happy if she is with me. it seems i have little control over the situation except to reassure her that she'll be safe with me. but the reality is that she'll probably have to leave her family on negative terms in order for us to be together.
i'm going to go to ugarit (origin of the world's oldest phonetic alphabet). the weather is absolutely beautiful today.
