Am back online!!
Not that i really was anywhere -- just i didnt have anything interesting to rant about.
Besides school, homeworks, etc, not much was going on.
Well, Ramadan is, actually! Second Ramadan in the US, fifth in a row abroad. Ha, not bad.. Let's see how long I can maintain the trend :)
It's alright, days are short, Harvard is giving us a prayer room (well, it's a room reserved for a number of other purposes as well but it's better than nothing, no?) and I'm learning to resist the free pizza events all day long (KSG people know what I mean..)
Am working in two student organisations -- well, in a bunch, actually, but am particularly involved in two of them: the Muslim Caucus, which is quite self explanatory, and the Middle East Caucus, which is a little less so -- it is basically an organisation where everyone can speak their minds FOR REAL, low on political correctness, and the best part is: the other side actually listens. I love that.
Now i was thinking -- both are the kind of things that would get me screwed in Egypt: working with Muslims (yep, anything related to Islam is inherently bad, for the Egyptian government - surprised? Don't be!) and the other is basically about having a sensible discussion with Israelis.
Hmmm. I'm starting to wonder what kind of conclusion my Amn Dawla (MI5, if you wish) file will start to look like - and under what will it be classified ;)
So, well, that's the news. Will post photos soon, promise :)
