new. year. boredom

Jan 01, 2004 18:34

new year resolutions are monotonous! i am going to make a change by breaking them. my resolution is not to resolve again. this had been my resolution for over the years + i have been breaking them ever since by repeating the mode. never mind if this does not make sense!

no one knows how fucking glad i am to be back from the egypt trip! i missed my cellphone, iguana, being in the living room watching nothingness etc. egypt was the strangest country i have ever been to + 10 days were an abundance.

the root of it all- egypt is ancient! people live in congested, unfinished mud houses, side by side with the dead + they use barter trading still in the bazaar. cairo was surprisingly cold + dirty; river nile was, well, a river [narrower than i thought]; the temples were mysteriously scary, the pyramids were fun to be inside with all its steep staircase down to the tombs but however, by the end of the day, i got sick of all egyptian artifacts + anecdotes that i ended up making fun of all the historical items at the museum without paying any attention to the babbling tour guide.

egyptian arabs do not score in my list of favorite people. both shamine + i were numerously proposed for marriage. stuffed camels + shops were put as exchange items. i was irked by such ridiculous-ness. it is not a surprise to find arabs proposing asians randomly for marriage [or more accurate, for sex]. three words: no fucking way. anyway, i have bought myself ankhs + cartouches + little pyramids + everything for others as well. so be nice to me, i might send you wrapped mummies in pharonic coffins!

p.s: i am on the dean's list once again. daddy's girl requests for supplementary card. mummy's girl requests for an international call. someone's spoilt girlfriend wants a new cellphone. i am obviously not denying that i trade in my academic results for brand new materials.
