Registered for classes finally. I write in a much calmer state; after writing the last entry, I went back and waited around. Finally got into the following classes: Arabic 202, Hist 356-History of the Middle East 1914-Present, Arab and Islamic Cultures 206-Art and Architecture of Cairo, and Hist 412-Selected Topics in Modern Egyptian History. All look very interesting, the ARIC 206 has field trips on saturdays which should be great.
Also, another good bit of news is that the water in the hotel is filtered which means no more buying water=less money spent, less trash, more good.
Watching The Firm with arabic subtitles. These cairo days just wear me out. Had more kushari today. Most excellent.

Did you meet Mrs. Tomader when you registered?
She's a Cairo experience in and of herself!
Oh boy...you're getting the real fun part of Middle Eastern history.
