The cabbie and my friend....

Today, oh today, what a day. Well, I had a conversation with one of my colleagues today who was just in Dubai this weekend and she decided to share the tale she had with the cabbie she rode with. I find this to be interesting as it was not only shocking but it also gave reason to why Egyptians aren't so liked in the middle east. Egyptians tend to say 'well, other Arabs are jealous of our history". Keep in mind they've been occupied by every single dynasty and empire that ever emerged in this region. So no "Sherlock", we're not jealous of you continuous occupation. So my colleague asked the cabbie what he thought of the current protests in Egypt. The cabbie, who is Tunisian, simply said this, "they are so violent, uneducated, ignorant and arrogant that they have become unruly. They do not think before they act, they do not fathom the consequences of their actions. They are shameless."  I will not comment any further about this. enough said.

The next thing that happened today was one of my friends had his friend call me. Apparently in an attempt to try and convince me to stay in this cesspool. Well funny thing is, my friend didn't factor in the fact that I am currently doing research as to where I plan to go from here. I've been doing my homework and some other countries and they came into the conversation. Now the person who called me to try to convince me to stay is planning on going with me to check it out one of the places so she can go there too.

Haha haha, I'm much too intelligent to remain in a place that I loathe, despise and detest every moment I am here. By the will of God Almighty I will leave this place.
