Half Way Through
Monday July 30th, 2007 @ 10:33 a.m.
Ahmed had called me 4 times whilst I was asleep (I couldn’t help myself, I was extremely tired around 8 so I drifted off to sleep) and I was even more nervous when I woke up, that he was calling and all (you know, I was just about to get my results the first thing in the morning!). Anyway him calling was kind of a relief because I was getting used to the don’t-tell-em-if-it’s-bad-news policy, so I rejected his call and rushed out to my fathers mobile to call him back (I wasn’t going to call an international phone call from my mobile phone, no way!) and get the news after all. Well, I failed. The phone call I don’t remember much of, I was in shock I failed again! I really had to pass this year! So many things were dependent on it! :rawr: rabena w 7ekmeto b2a.
After I went off the phone with him, I told my parents, and immediately went back to sleep.
Me failing this year will definitely make serious changes to the way my life was turning out to be, after all, it’s obvious civil engineering is not the right choice for me. I’m coming back to Egypt on August 7th, we’ll see then.
5 semesters later, and with 5 more semesters to go, I am half way through. I am half way through the longest most important life-affecting decision I have ever had to make — starting university all over again.
Today marks the date of our last of finals for my 5th semester at the German University in Cairo, Introduction to Communication Networks. (Not going to get into exact details of any of the finals although it was a happy [and hopefully successful] experience with most.)
