So it’s been a week since I lastposted anything and I have a very valid reason to, I was away in Dhahran-SaudiArabia ending my residency sponsorship and finishing all the paper work in myuniversity in order to receive my graduation certificate. In other words I wasleaving SA for good this time, so yesterday the 22nd of Februaryyear 2006 at 7:30 am I lived my last moments in there. I’ve been a Hajji since2003; I’ve done over 30 Omras at least, and visited the Prophet Mosque in Medina three times. Sounless I lose sanity (which I’m planning to keep for a long time) my good byeswere final.

I’m not gonna lie and say I’m notgoing to miss it, because very simply I will. I’ll miss the good people, thesepeople with rough edges and smoochy insides, these people once you get to knowthem you immediately realize how natural they are.

I’m gonna miss my friends themost though, these guys that I shared happiness and sorrow along the years. Andwhat hurts the most is that these last few days were most probably the last Iever saw them. Guy’s thank you for all the good and bad memories you engravedin this empty shell of mine.

I’m grateful for the eleven yearsSaudi Arabiagave me, I learned a lot, my personality was formed, and my philosophy in lifewas developed during these years. Saudi Arabia, people, friends, andplaces I am gonna miss you, good bye.
