Something

Should I or should I not write a journal entry? I gave this question half a thought then said, what the heck, I'll do it anyway. The last journal entry was from 2011 for God's sake.

I don't think anyone's gonna actually read this. But it's nice to just vent. Or not necessarily vent but write your heart out knowing that no one you know in real life will read this. Almost every example of social media you can imagine is full of relatives. It's quite sickening at times.

I don't have anything in particular in mind.

I've disappeared lately from deviantart. But then I came back and realized how much I'd been missing. Well first it's a huge source of inspiration; it's what drives you to become a better artist. If you don't have a daily visual dose of something that challenges you, you will never grow as an artist, and even as a person. The biggest proof is that my latest deviation was inspired by something that I'd seen here in deviantart.

Anyway.

There's not much going on in my life currently. I'm in my third year in law school. I've kind of taken a vow upon myself to get better grades and work more, but I'm not really doing anything about it so meh.

My parents are being strict, imposing new rules every day. Don't go out on Fridays. Curfew at 11. Etc... They say it's because of the security issues in Cairo and stuff. I don't think that's a good enough reason and quite frankly I'm sick of it.

I'm kind in a state of blues over a case of unrequited "like" (I've dubbed it so because love is too strong of a word in this context). So again, meh.

I REALLY want to get a tablet. LIKE REALLY REALLY REALLY.

I'm going on a diet. So far I've lost about 3.5 kilos. I want to lose 4-5 more kilos. I still have a long way ahead.

What else, what else?

I guess that's about it.

As you may or may not know, Egypt has been in a bad situation these past few days, even though nothing's happened to my family (thank God).
Hopefully everything'll be back to normal soon. There are still protesters in Tahrir square (which actually means liberation square), but I think things are different than they were last week. The curfew is now 8 pm, for one thing. And there is no more violence. Just peaceful protesters who are still demanding president Mubarak to leave.
Meanwhile, I haven't been to school for 10 days. I know this should be a good thing, but the thing is, I've also been stuck in the house for 10 days. It was really horrible. The first time I got out was last Saturday: I went to a friend's place. Oh and the government had cut off the internet for five days. Anyway, teachers are being evacuated from Egypt. (they're French, I'm doing the French baccalaureate) and this is by no means good news. I don't know how we're going to catch up all the hours we've lost and I'm afraid we won't be able to finish the program... :S Some teachers have sent us some work via e-mail, so I guess all is not lost.

I would really like to thank two deviants in particular who've managed to cheer me up: :icontwirkle: and :iconmeloy:
Thank you for the support and the kind words!
