    Friends vs Social Intelligence

    Dear Soceity,I wonder about this society I'm living in a lot, and I always think about my availability of staying in it for so long. Will I be able to stay here? At least till things erupt in this ultra-stable country? Is my character more adobted to stability? or maybe more able to adopt to constant change. I just don't know. The state of constancy paralyze me, destroys me from inside. The problem is that how things change worries me a lot, because usually things change using undecent or injust ways. Must I be a hypocrite to be a someone inside a certain society? It is really against my nature,…

    Cultural Clash

    Egyptian people coming back from a long time work abroad, esp in the Gulf where most Egyptians who are abroad work in. When the families return with their students coming to Egyptian Schools or Universities, these students always clash with the old egyptian students. Teasing, refusing, not adopting, this really make them feel really isolated, and suffer low esteem and so. One of my friends is suffering this and I guess I'm lucky to find someone like those who lived abroad who can be really near to my mentality, I hope all of them come in my way lol.

    The Final Cut

    A member of the security apparatus at Tora Mahkoom prison where Kefaya activist Mohamed Sharkawy (member of youth for change) is being held in detention, has threatened him with murder, he was told that it would be really simple to inject him with a contaminated syringe and claim his death had been caused by some natural disease. Sharkawy is being targeted by prison authorities, his hours out of his cell are shorter than those of other prisoners, detainees charged with criminal offences harass him at the instigation of state security, those who are friendly with him are themselves harassed, and he is being kept from sharing a cell with Kareem…

    Today I saw the movie Omar AlMokhtar. I saw it many times before, but it is the first time for me to see it from a very different prospective. When I was in the CIMAL session we discussed the principle of the one person rule in the history of Arab countries, and I really realized that even in the times of Arab dignity and proesperity, there was a rare chance of talking about democracy or Shoora within the minds of our Arab people. We always depend on certain people to defend us, and thus giving away this precious right to others while in the mean time we are the ones…

Judges, People's assembly activity, Egypt's foreign Policy, Bloggers Detaination…One of the cool things that I guess will never happen again, we were discussing the Judges Independence from the Government in the same the time the real People's Assembly were discussing it. Hoping for more improvement.

    Freedom and Censorship

    Freedom… We are in Egypt, the country of non-freedom, the country of censorship… u no this can be acceptable when r dealing with governmental places…we can somehow in a way or another get the point of freedom capturing, but…when u are in a place which is supposed to be a place for discussion, and u discuss the concept of freedom against governmental actions, and then this discussion is censored? you know this really sucks. This means that this supervisor is really against freedom. I believe that if things remained like that in our dear country, we will be facing a tough bloddy revolution, maybe worse than the french revolution. Egyptian…

    Thoughts… Part Four

    As I began my first day in "SunRise" School…I dont remember how did I overcome the barrier of language that easily (looking back at my age then, 5 years old…) I even loved thw way things wokred there…enjoying being injected with the love and passion for English Language…I used to be a very naughty boy( how ironically opposite myself is now)…to beat anyone who tried to tease me, which was almost all of the time, and then suffering the blame from the teahcers and the evil looks on the pupils. But best of all at the end of the day, the last thirty minutes before going home…watching cartoons which made…

    Thoughts… Part Three…

    Nationalism, the expression in whicn I think, the first source of extremism which I suffer sometimes. I'm very interested in politics, history and Religion comparison(though I dont know how can someone like me can be interested in fields which are almost never common with like 99.99% of the people in around my surroundings… There interests introduced to the blakc history and present of our humanity, and how imposible for any form of living to be perfect…or even to be as perfect as possible… Abosrbed in this shocking realization, I began to relieve myself more and more, hoping for more and more approaching to a practical way of living…To be more…
