Oh my God, I can't believe it. I made a 97 on my Information Systems midterm.

A 98% on my Ethics, and a 97% on my Information Systems... fingers crossed for at least a high "C" in Accounting, because a high C would bring my high D from the last exam up to averaging a C for the class, assuming my good homework grades haven't already done that.

Ooooh, cross your fingers, guys.

Either way... I'm very, very happy.

As some of you know, I come from Egypt.
Today a nationwide poll was held to decide whether we're going to amend the current Constitution or instate a new one. The poll booths had a historical turnout because people really felt that their voice will be heard. I'm extremely happy about the newfound spirit of political awareness in my country!

Happy 20th anniversary to me and my ever-lovely ever-loving wife

"A Poem of You and Me"

You and I
Have so much love,
That it
Burns like a fire,
In which we bake a lump of clay
Molded into a figure of you
And a figure of me.
Then we take both of them,
And break them into pieces,
And mix the pieces with water,
And mold again a figure of you,
And a figure of me.
I am in your clay.
You are in my clay.
In life we share a single quilt.
In death we will share one coffin

Guan Dao Sheng (1262 -1319)
to her husband.

Hang in there- now it seems like a long time, but when it's happened you'll look back and say where did it all go?

Yeah, I can't believe it's already almost been a year for me! I look forward to 20, and all the rest of the anniversaries.

Hello! I'm sitting here, having just finished a wonderful 3 Musketeers, in my very old rocking chair with a pleasant breeze flowing through the open windows while reading "The Tale of Despereaux". Does life get any better than this?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! I could not be happier right now.

I made an 80% in Accounting!!!!!!!!!! The average grade for my class was a 63%, and the highest grade that -anyone- in all of the (three or four) classes who took that test got was a 90%.

Oh my God, I feel like a huuuuuge weight has been lifted off of me. I can totally do this. Between the 68% on the first test and this 80%, plus all of the 95%+100%'s I've been getting on the homework, that should put me solidly at a C... and since she is allowed to curve the final (but not the mid-terms) I might even pull off a B.


!!!!!!!!!!!YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!
