Yet another day...
I guess the most positive thing about my stay in Cairo has to be that my blog is getting very full of links.... There are now links to my philosophical writings, my links, my creative writing (more creative writing to come), and my favourite entries so far. All of them are conveniently located on the side bar. I'd love some comments on my philosophical writings, especially...
Yes... so ... erm...
Why haven't I been out exploring the city? I really hate the way men here stare.... and whistle... and take off their pants and start masturbating (I'm not joking) when they see an unveiled woman or unaccompanied woman. I feel like I'm walking around naked. And it's perfectly understandable that my mother doesn't particularly want to go exploring Cairo the way I want to... to just set off in some random direction and see what happens... After all, she lives here. My dad, on the other hand, is at work.
Then, they don't want me to go out in the evenings after the sun has set, when a few people I've met might be free, because they are concerned about my safety. So, maybe I'll have started a net empire by the time I get away from this country :)
