I’m back from Cairo everyone! I didn’t have any internet access the last week I was there because the damn phone line went dead - “Welcome to Egypt” as my dear mom would say. *sigh*
Of course I can’t remember half of the things I did during my last week in Cairo, but I do know that Mr. Heartbreaker wasn’t in it! Yes, he’s gorgeous and lovely to look at, but he’s certainly not the type to settle down with. (Did I just write, “settle down” - what the hell is wrong with me?! :|)
I really miss everyone back in Cairo, I want to go back! *cries* I was supposed to meet up with Yaz, but gah, boys will be boys…he lived a little too far away and I guess we both got a little lazy and couldn’t get our self in a cab and sit the whole 30 minute drive. Bad, very bad :(
T (my cousin’s brother in law) developed feelings towards me and erm…kinda proposed. Shocking? Yes, I know!! I mean, I’m only 20! T’s a really nice guy, but I mean…well I had my reasons, and I told him, and it’s a good thing he understood [I hope]. Funny thing is, I met a guy at my friend’s engagment party, and he’s…perfect. Surely you’re thinking, “Wasn’t Mr. Heartbreaker perfect?!” No he wasn’t, he’s good looking, sure…but he isn’t perfect! I mean, the guy I met at the engagement party, M, he’s got such a good heart and for some odd reason I smile whenever I remember the conversation we had that night. Thing is, after I left the party, everytime I remembered him I got butterflies in my stomach! What’s happening to me?! I only met him once! argh! Why don’t the guys I want live in Kuwait?! WHY?! :( My friends are telling me to do something about it and tell him how I feel, or at least hint it [M gave me his “business card”] but I don’t know, that’s like me saying, “hello, i’ve fallen for you…how desperate am I?!” Funny enough, I like this guy so much, I told my mother about him! All she said was, “I knew it, I knew you felt something towards him; your face lights up whenever you mention him!”
I need to occupy myself with anything so that I could stop thinking about M…I’ve been in Kuwait for the past 2 days and apart from eating like there’s no tomorrow, I haven’t been doing anything productive. I’m making up for the lack of eating in Cairo! (I was too freaked out of getting food poisoning) Yeah, blah, I’m super picky, blah blah :p
None of my friends are in the country because they’re back to whichever country they study in *sigh*…I wonder if R is still in the country…
A thought just crossed through my mind….The night I met M, if he said, ‘marry me’, I would’ve said, “In a heartbeat.”…Oh my, now I’m thinking of marriage?! I mean, after R’s wedding 2 weeks ago, family members asked me if I was thinking of marriage anytime soon; I said, “I don’t think so, I’m never going to find the right person. Plus, I’m only 20, I’m too young!” Then I met M, and everything’s changed…On one hand, I’m seriously frustrated because I don’t know what to do…On the other hand, I feel all mushy and blah :blush: But hang on, I’ve only met him once! Then again, there’s just something, something I can’t explain :|
Let me change the mood a little, here are some photos I took while in Cairo (as I promised :D)
Not exactly in Cairo, but in Abu Dhabi…My new watch!

First thing I ate and drank in Cairo (was my dinner btw):

The lights that hung on R’s building [on henna night]
