Speaking unknowingly




"aHa Hr Tnw"

means : 'a fighter for honor' translated from hyerogliphs scripts.

the amazing Egypt always has been my favorite subject in social studies.
" the emotion is difficult to express as i trot past unimaginable changer, tourist filing past sights...that, in 1915 had been nothing.
at all mere sand dunes still shattering mysterie."
This stretch from the book " The Egyptologist ", by Arthur Philiphis.
i definately recomend this interesting and cool book for those people whoare amazed by the mysteries of egypt stories and novels.

" the egyptologist " is structered as journals, letters, telegrams, and drawings, from several different points of view. The main story is set in 1922, tell us a funny , pathetic storie about a hopeful explorer who risks more of his life and savings on an apparently fantastic effort to find the tomb of an apocryphal or authencity Egyptian king, working near Howard Carter , the man who discovered the tomb of the king Tutankhamun.


also...


".....I am the lord of all Egypt ,
the son of RA
Horus' essence
Master of Nile
Host of every feast
Lover of every woman
Lord of every man
Every hill, every cliff
every beast ......."

( quatrain, 23 a & b only)


one of my favorite parts of the book...
funny, because i confess that i had to read 3 times to get what Arthur really meant. what he wanted to pass to the readers.
but now i get it, of coarse!


btw....

vacation is almost over....fun or not
i just hope my nightmare called brendow is not in my class....

speaking of nightmares......
i also hope that t.b. don't ever try to mess with me again.....
i'll be ready
