Event posters
Hello everyone! Let me start by thanking every single one of you who was at the event, and who made it special and fantastic! I really couldn’t have wished for it to go better… To those who couldn’t make it, worry not for I will upload pictures of all the details 😀
While I’m uploading the pics on Facebook first, I’ll start by adding a series of 11 posters that I designed for the event, to animate the room, and entertain the people waiting for their copy to be signed. As I promised you (since many of you were too lazy to photograph them), I am adding them here! Enjoy 🙂
Photos tomorrow! 🙂 Have a great day!

A pleasant encounter
I was pulled over by a stuuupid darakeh (policeman) today just because I was asking an adjacent car for directions in the middle of the TRAFFIC! (meaning that the cars were stopped anyway!). At first I thought he stopped us because the car I was addressing didn’t have a plate number, but as it turns out “I” was the source of his problems, while he let the non-plate-car go. Very efficient I must say. After investigating and checking my papers, and asking endless questions about why I want to go to horsh tabet, he eventually laughed at me saying I wasn’t close, and let me go. All that, and I was late already. What a beautiful encounter it was!
I think this is going to be my last post before the signing, so I hope to see you all at the signing, can’t wait to get to meet you! I now have to prepare the cookies and candy and marshmallows, as well as the posters that will be hung around the room (yes, yes like a small exhibition). Don’t forget, if you need directions you can check the map here or, in worst cases you can call this number 03 866 007, but I cant guarantee an answer 😛 With that, I wish you the loveliest of days, in the hope to see you tomorrow! 🙂

What's wrong with Sin-el-Fil?
If you’ve been to sin el fil, you’ll know what I’m talking about. It’s surprising how it’s so much easier to add posters, than to remove them. I guess it’s easier to let time fade the colors away from the posters until they’re not visible anymore. Really awkward to have christmassy decoration in the middle of august’s killer-heat! Please someone remove the christmas decoration until December! Anyway… I should go back to the preps for the big day!!! Hope to see you all there ^^
To those who were tanning at the beach while I was stressing in MTV studios, here’s the interview in Kitab section, with Karen Boustany. Thank you Karen!

The solution to your worries
Oh life! After a major disappointment/surprise in the contract with the distributors of the book, I found complete consolation in a cup of chocolate yogurt. It works wonders to fix all the problems of the world. And what’s more enticing about it is this billboard with a huge chocolate yogurt that they have all over the highway… If you have seen it you should know what I mean. I find it irresistible! Hope your lives will be full of chocolate yogurts! 🙂

Modern slavery
Just another example of modern slavery… I stood there for a whole minute not believing what i had just seen! The woman left the car forgetting about the maid. When I saw the man who was driving making signs to her that she forgot something, I directly thought it was a suitcase, until I saw the maid hop out the trunk, and the woman laughing that she forgot her. Click here for an interesting article about the topic by Maysam Ali.

About traffic lights
I”m sick of having to constantly honk to cars in front of me when they stop Egal ob beim Live Roulette oder den anderen online Roulette Varianten – die Spiele sind sehr liebevoll umgesetzt und gehoren sowohl graphisch als auch von der Spielqualitat zum absoluten Spitzenfeld der Online Casino s. 1 meter after the red light and can”t see it anymore. It”s really not a race, and going 1 meter forward will NOT help them or make the traffic smoother. Why don”t they get it? Having to honk at the green light is becoming a norm that i do NOT want to conform to! Walaw! It”s really annoying!

Major dilemma
”
I found this sign in souk jounieh really funny. Are the brothers competing with each other? Two adjacent orthodontists who are brothers… HOW is this supposed casino online to work? It didn”t make sense to me at all! On what basis should new clients approach the one or the other?
Now in other news.. I”m sorry I”ve been slow in posting, but I”m preparing the book launch so please bear with me! Here”s a small “avant-première” exclusively for you 😉 See you soon!
I RECEIVED THE BOOKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Time travel
I noticed something that perplexed me on my way home. A huge billboard of a Lebanese singer that I remember from my early childhood. She still looks exactly the same (if not younger!). I linked it to a statement that a friend of mine had made earlier during the day: when we see a young person we haven’t seen in a while, and that we remember as a kid, and then (s)he suddenly is a grown-up. I guess the reverse phenomenon happens with singers.
In case you were on another planet yesterday, I would like to re-announce that the launching of the book will take place on August 12th, 2009, at Art Lounge at 6:30 PM. You can click here to join the Facebook event. See you there ^^
