There is something about Air Conditioners that contributes to one’s tendencies. My childhood comprises of delphic moments under the churns of this primal machine, since we barely live by two seasons; summer is extended over nearly eight months, and the rest is called winter. It’s not too hot outside, almost 20 Celsius, which is definitely incomparable to the midst of July, but...
What if I slept a little more and forgot about all this nonsense.

Night Time
Mayed needs to put himself to sleep. After having earth-shaking discoveries refurbished and beliefs perished, he has to fasten himself well for a serious journey tomorrow. He is being nuts. By the time it is 12AM, he finds himself something else, that’s more or less pointless, to spend the rest of the forsaken evening with.
The night makes every faint edge bolder. It is unbelievable, how I...
Life is not a support-system for art. It’s the other way around.
– Stephen King from On Writing, in a chapter about desks and where is best to place them.

I can sincerely express confidence of the recent overflow of events, for things seem well reserved and confined, than when they were shredded. I have more confidence in the grounds, even so that I cannot make that Ohio University Research, on people’s tendency towards comparison, any more authentic. I think it would in a given retrospect, seem as though I am convincing myself in fear of the...
Goodbye Dashboard I hope to only see you in occasions.
Note to self:
Do not eat rice, otherwise, it’ll contribute to your sluggishness.

dohanews:
In a move that has upended the modern art market, Qatar has shelled out $250 million for Cezanne’s The Card Players - more than double the price that has ever been paid for a single work of art on auction.
The painting, one in a series of five, depicts Provençal peasants immersed…

You know what I truly miss?
Witnessing the sunrise, and only staying awake to witness it. Without having anything as demeaning as some test or appointment to haunt you in the morning. This should be on my todo list for next week! I know Fatma won’t be free to accompany me like old times.
I hope by then, I’ll have bought enough plants for the garden.
I need to remember visiting the...
