Long Overdue
Hello, lovely people of dA!
It's been a veeeery long time since I've been active here, and those of you who do not spend their days living in their own dreamworld (this is something I am often guilty of, and do not at all discourage ;)) can probably guess why. Hectic times here in Egypt, though not in a bad way at all. A lot has happened, and I shall not bore you with all the details, the most important thing is that Egypt, and all of the Middle East, is changing.
And that's been long overdue.
I have missed you all so terribly much, and unfortunately I won't be able to be as active on dA as I used to be. As this is being typed (in complet
'Egypt Is Free!'
Mubarak stepped down! :la: :la: :la: :la: :party: :la: :la: :la: :la:
The Armed Forces are taking over for now, I'll update later! :D
WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO! :heart:
The Current Situation
I hope you're all doing well. As you may have heard, the situation in Egypt is not stable, and I just thought I'd post a quick journal to let those of you who are interested know what's going on.

People live on under 2 LE a day, which is about 50 cents. People can't find jobs, people call the streets their home.
And now, we're finally speaking up. We, as Egyptia
Happy New Year!
Time has gone by too fast, and at the same time, the new year couldn't have come soon enough.
I wish you all a wonderful 2011 - may you reach your dreams and your hopes and may the disappointments never stand in your way.
Most importantly, don't forget to love. We all seem to forget how much love we actually possess - it could fill the whole universe, yet we give it out so carefully, so little at a time.
I've just seen what hate can do; a soul consumed with hate can rip families apart.
But a soul overcome with love? A soul overcome with love can change the whole world.
So that is my new years resolution - to love more. :heart:
Thanks
