Field Research

Aiwa, Na3am Ok,

So alhamdullelah, my proposal has been approved a while ago, and am off in a country with a relatively liberal Authoritarian regime doing research ! alhamdulleah, sounds cool ay ? well I think inshaAllah the thesis is going to be a major academic contribution inshaAllah, inshaAllah I will publish it too! all I do now is try to make contacts and set up interviews and attend gatherings when there is info

I have been working out in this awesome gym when i have some time, seems a lot of people here are on steroids and lift very little, am all natural and I think I will stay that way inshaAllah, too many risks with doing steroids, dont think its the coolest thing to have a 21 inch biceps an yr impotent.

Cairo

Egypt is really about to explode or implode on itself, there have been a series of serious events in the country and at a very past political pace, I really have no idea what could possibly happen, bu the current regime seems to have lost the ability to absorb shocks, the people are somewhat becoming fearless of the regime, workers with relatively little education are taking protests down the street and in front the parliament and chanting slogans against the "president" and the government.

The tragic murder of innocent of Alexandrian Khalid Saeid in a very brutal and gruesome manner at the hands of corrupt police men who sell drugs and torture citizens has created public anger, and has resulted in a strong reinforcement of calls to abrogate the "emergency law" which allows any police man to do anything without a warrant from a court, basically knock on your door and drag you for no reason to the police station. Over the past few days there have been protests in Cairo Alex and many other provinces for Khalid and calls of ending the emergency law and taking his murders to court.

Facebook is just full of calls and a lot of the protests are organized through it, and its mostly youth.

Muhammed al Baradie the previous President of the International Atomic Agency, who has an internal consensus on being the next president and his facebook group has over a quarter million supporters is the stronger challenger to the current government, people recognize that he has international legitimacy and parties of all ideologies agree that he should be the transition to political change.

anyways so much going on cant write much about, for the first time in ages I am having genuine interest in Egyptian domestic politics.

salam.

Alaaas Masters here I come inshaAllah!

So alhamdullelah finally I submitted in my research proposal! I will have to travel inshaAllah to get my research done!!! I hope it gets approved first inshaAllah shouldnt be an issue inshaAllah!
I didnt Jew my proposal, and am doing a comparative, hopefully inshaAllah it will get published.
-----

work is still going on, but lame, we hoping into a new project, am still responsible for the same coverage areas but they added Yemen to me and central Asia, oh well I might as well consider the gulf mine too since thats not on the agenda.

---
I busted my shoulder its like the same injury i had in 2007, but alhamdullelah seems healing well, i had to go light, on the bench press and shoulders, i think i need to change the gym it sucks and the stuff is so old its bad for you, i like the hardcore manly Alpha sweating gym, not the dress up hold my towel looing for date gym! there is a gym and good bros go there, i might see just whats up...
----

oh well whats going on else, nothing I suppose , blogging isnt that cool no more, especially that I hardly say anything serious, and i dont really visit any other blogs and hardly any one comments.

---

on a different note, marriage is good alhamdullelah, its a bit tough at first trying to adjust to each other, but its very rewarding alhamdullelah, just find a good person, pray your istikhara and go with it, dont delay too much ! subhan Allah I got married at the age I planned and hoped I would get married at.

-----

On a different note, a dude at the gym whom I often have rleigious discussions with, the dude is mashaallah jacked! (huge) but anyways, he told me about this youtubething called "voices from hell"

suposedly some scinitists dug a hole in siberia and head people screaming and it was so hot down there, you can search it and you listen to people screaming, anyways! subhan Allah can you imagine the people of the fire screaming in mass from the pain and torment for all the prayers they missed, the zina and eating from 7aram!,

such a scary thought may Allah enter us jannah with no prior torment, may Allah forive our sins, and guide us to the straight path.

Changes

Life is exciting and a challenge and can be a lot of fun! inshaAllah we all have a pleasant life, yet as much as we would like to have a pleasant life we should also keep in mind it doesn’t last forever, and everyone wants it pleasant after its over.

Don’t keep delaying those changes that need to be done whether its its setting your prayer on time, or quitting your conscious rubbing job or leaving a haram relationship. You Can make those changes now, you may not be able to make them later.

thy new post

Salaaam aleykum
so its good to blog again, feel like am becoming a bit alien to this,
marriage life is good alhamdullelah, different though but good, you become responsible to someone, and an americano is double trouble ! no not really but yeah somewhat but no again, you get the pic. But of course, Americans are way better than Egyptians! :D I'm jealous.

Cairo driving
driving in cairo is horrible, no one follows an rules its like a vedio game but it can be nice too, I go like freakin 160km/h on the highway, going between the cars and all, am so cool like that, ehm yeah. and sometimes you would get some dude who wanna race you like its need for speed, I win most ones, its best when you come next to him and driving fast past and cut him of ohhhh thats good! but I never provoke anyone, and its also cool when you look at the other dude and he tryin to be some hot shot and he s a little weasel. I am super cool!

which takes us on to bodybuilding of course!

yup I havent really made that much improvements as I should, been very busy the past few months, but I guess now I am easily passing the 17 inch barrier on arms I bench press 220 pounds 8 reps on a bad day and now I can do shrugs with 400 pounds 8 reps, I tried dieting before marriage and went from 108kg to 102 in 3 weeks and I gained it all back after marriage! Cuz my wife makes the tastiest food ever, she should be a chef. haha just eating sweets all the time and all those cup cakes i had! so anyways its time for a serious cut 8 to 12 weeks need to take a break though my shoulders are cranky,

and inshaAllah my proposal for thesis is to be handed in very soon wa Allah al musta3aan.

I am a nerd, and i am proud. Peace out!

P.S red stuff my wife typed.
