Egypt: Day 1

We meet our personal guide, who accompanied us to visit Giza. We visited one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the Great Pyramids of Cheops,Chephren and Mykerinus, Famous Sphinx, and Valley temple, Egyptian Museum, Treasure room of king Tutankhamen. Continue to Coptic Cairo to visit the Hanging Church and Ben Ezra Synagogue. Then we continued driving to Islamic Cairo's old bazaar.


Egyptian Museum:

 There are seven sections in the Museum:
  • The first section : Tutankhamon's treasures.
  • The second section : the pre-dynasty and the Old Kingdom monuments.
  • The third section : the first intermediate period and the Middle Kingdom monuments.
  • The forth section : the monuments of the Modern Kingdom.
  • The fifth section : the monuments of the late period and the Greek and Roman periods.
  • The sixth section : coins and papyrus.
  • The seventh section : sarcophagi and scrabs
The Egyptian antiquities were really detailed and beautiful. By the, detailed drawing, it looked like the Pharaohs were very ambitious and hard-working. 
I even saw many mummified mummies and animals.


The Great Sphinx of Giza:

 Its a mythical creature with a head of a human and body of a lion.

The boy wouldn't stop talking to her, he would always be with her and to make thing even worse, he lives right next door. but he made her smile; made her feel happy; and feeling that she hasn't felt since her parent died. she never felt like this before. she felt love. but she was scared, what if it  mended her broken pieces, only to leave them shattered when he leaves her. she wants to let him go but she was afraid that if she let...

The Void:four

the words they say make bruises that don't fade away. All those words they said, all those things they said; they didn't hurt her on the outside but they shattered her on the inside. She lost her will,she lost her joy. she lived in fear, she can't hide the tears,she had thoughts of suicide,which she fought inside. Did it fill them with determination that they had power over her? Did it fill them with happiness in all the wrong ways? They were the reason, that she went to void, where her world was perfect, where  she   -was perfect, where everyone  loved  her. Each word they said, each sound that came out of their mouth shattered her; it was like rubbing salt on a wound; a wound that would never heal. No one helped her, no one stood up for her. Not even her best friends. They either stood their as still as statues or would be the one assaulting her.  Each word left visible scars; reminding her of the things that she can cover but  never ...
