Everything happened so fast since they told me few weeks ago about their wedding. I traveled and forgot, then returned to find out only a week left. I didn’t have enough time to prepare a dress or a lie to save me from going.
I have never felt comfortable with weddings..
But this time was [...]

While the piano man was playing “Kalemat” today, I remembered the first time I heard this song. I was a kid watching Magda El Rumi’s live concert on TV – with my parents at night. My father is the one who taught me poetry. He taught me to love good words, and to seek the [...]

Tonight I left the bus and went back home walking; and throughout the way, my last visit to Beirut was on my mind. I remembered the first night I spent walking with strangers in the streets. It was my first time to travel somewhere new and spend it with people I barely know. I was [...]

After years of writing in two separate blogs, Lasto Adri [Ar] and On my own [En], I finally decided to settle down and write in this one and only one blog. This decision was taken in a way to concentrate on writing dreams I have for quite sometime. Not that I promise to write more [...]

Since yesterday I have been thinking about what I should write. I kept gathering thoughts throughout the day. Everything was written in my head; I will say this and this and that.
But by the time I reached home, I was tired to the extent that I was sitting in front of TV not because I [...]

Everyday I got to suffer the same thing. I can not get along with the folk in my office. Everyday I have to ask my colleagues if anybody needs a company, so I can spend my break with them. Hang out together, eat something, have a chit chat….
Every-other-day, I got to ask.. then ask.. then [...]

I used to listen to this phrase “what lasts in one’s mind, only the tiny fragile moments. Only the faint perfume of unreality, remains.”.. and believe in it.
Now, I wonder if I do.
Memories have to have something concrete to make me happy. Something I can hold in hands life long and remember. I’m not good [...]

It was dark by the time I started the walk. I looked up to the skies.. the moon was up there, looking upon me too. Kept on looking, till it was covered by aimless clouds..
Today, I went to a photographer with Bava. You know, supposedly we are into the process of “year books” and “goodbyes” [...]

Walking thru the photos right now and feeling pity. I’m greedy. There were lots and lots of beautiful things I could have shot; but totally forgot. And how can’t I forget?
Now I wonder where I was the last couple of days, really in Luxor and Aswan, or place from heaven [...]

I went yesterday to my best friend’s “Bava” house for the analog project, to find her making this little surprise on the music “Gabriel’s Oboe” I mentioned earlier in a previous post, with some “old Cairo” photos she got online. She knows how much I LOVE Cairo :)
So to her I send my deepest thanks, [...]

I remember when my friend Mr. DXer used to say “I’m 35 but 18 at heart”, and I used to reply back “I’m 18, but 62 at heart”. The 62 was just a joke back then, yet grown to live with me.
Today, I hit my 22. Only 40 steps left for the 62, am [...]

Past couple of days are some of the worst. But life should go on, and never stops. There should be something you linger to. A dream, a hope, a wish, vacation, going out, a friend’s phone call.. Didn’t I tell you before, we spend most of our life waiting :) ?
Something inside you always wake [...]

Forget about people, forget about suffocating time and usual stress.. forget about the normal stupid talks or the random lame actions.. forget about the world’s politics or the internal corrupt..
I know the world would still keep turning and the sun would rise again from the east… but I can’t stop my heart from feeling sadness [...]

And after a long time now, I emailed Osama on “late night cartoon”.. Thought to share it with you :)
Dear Osama,
May be as you read this email I’d be fast asleep, and may be sitting wide awake counting some shooting stars I’ve seen lately. May be I’d be feeling the normal autumn cold or the [...]

I love it, when I wake up in the morning to find the sun shining for me, like people smiling at my face. I love it, when I see flowers dancing with the breeze, like people cheering me all the way. I love it, when a friend winks to me, and another cares to ask [...]
