This lack of internet thing is driving me up the wall. I was supposed to have it back on Saturday and now thats been changed. Now its been moved to Friday. So another week of waiting. I really wish they would make up their minds as to what they want. And I found out why the internet was cut off. It wasn't because of this whole we are speeding up the connection thing like I thought it was before. It was because the numerous people who are on the connection haven't been paying their bills. So the company cut them off. But I found out the people who have to router and such in their house are collecting money from the people twice a month, once at the beginning and once at the end. Somewhere along the line leading up to paying the bill someone is stealing the money. But by Friday I will have internet again all because we paid more money. But I'm looking forward to having it again because I can talk to everyone from the house instead of from the sketchy internet cafe. But enough of that.

Today was interesting. I enjoyed it so much. I went and spent the day with my mom's brother and his family. Visiting with them is so relaxing and funny. I enjoy it so much. He's also the uncle that been taking me around and showing me the highlights of the city. Anyways, we went to his house early in the morning and had breakfast with them. Seriously, the best breakfast ever. At least it felt like it. My brother and I haven't been eating all that well at my mom's sisters place. Due to the fact that she can't cook and orders out always. Anyways, breakfast was traditional Egyptian food. And it tasted almost as good as my mom's cooking. Then after breakfast was visiting time and planning time as well. We planned what we would be doing for the rest of the day. It was nice just being able to relax and not feel like I was being pressured into having to say something. By the time we finished planning it was lunch time. Time sure flew with them. Lunch was also yummy. I'd share but I don't know the names of the food in English and if I did it would be gross and no one would talk to me again after know the things I eat. But yes moving on....After we ate that, I got jello. I haven't eaten jello in years. Gotta love those allergic reactions. But yes, I ate alot of jello. I think I'm over any jello cravings I may have had. Then after my jello craze, I fixed their internet. They have dial up. I forgot how slow it was. Not looking forward to having to go and put a program on to it. After that we were off. We took the metro again and ended up at the Nile. So much fun. We got to ride on a boat for a bit. Then walked across the bridge a few times. Grabbed something to drink and then sat in a park just enjoying the view. Before I knew it, it was 11 at night. So it was off to my aunt's place again. While on the train my brother tried jumping some guy. When we got over the apologizing to the man we asked why he did that. Turns out the man was trying to take my picture with his cell phone. So I gave the man the evil eye and got off the train. But tragically it wasn't all the sauve of a evil eye because man had a monsterous unibrow and I laughed. I'm horrible person but it couldn't have been helped the unibrow was too funny. Got home and talked to my mom for a bit. Made my cousin mad at me because everyone was telling her she should be more like me when it comes to school. Also,because her boy wasn't allowed to come with us to Alexandria when we went and a million other things that apparently happened during the day. Its been determined that she is just jealous of me and way to spoiled.

But that is my day. Hopefully the internet resolves itself soon. And I really need to have me some more adventures. Alexandria is next on the list of things to do. Then when I get back, I'm off to the pyramids for the day. I'm so excited for that. I got to see that stuff that was inside of them now I actually get to see them. Yay!!!
