<p>Hey I'm an arab too. I already applied to universities and I'm going to Stanford in two weeks. Wohoo!
PS:I'm lebenese</p>
<p>^do you live in Lebanon or outside? just wondering becasue of what was going on there a few days ago.</p>
<p>Nope I live in the UAE. I was planning on visiting lebanon the day the bombed the airport but I cancelled. I was lucky eh?</p>
<p>I have a lebanese/palestinian friend that's going to Stanford (returning for Sophomore year).</p>
<p>I hear it's a great place to be.</p>
<p>I might go to Lebanon with my dad next month..he's teaching a course there (something medical) but I doubt that there will be anything left to see ,right?</p>
<p>no that's not true. Beirut in general is fine they never hit there. But getting around would probably be a pain.</p>
<p>oh, cool. i guess i should walk around then, all the roads have been smashed to ****, right?</p>
<p>it was mostly the bridges. Getting around in Beirut itself would be relatively easy. I haven't really been there after the war so I can't tell you much...</p>
<p>Depends where exactly your dad will be teaching, in the Christian parts or the south.</p>
<p>^He'll probably be teaching in The AUB or another university close by like the LAU.</p>
<p>Close by to what...? </p>
<p>LAU is quite far from the south (if that's what you were refering to).</p>
<p>I meant close to each other. LAU and AUB are moderately close to each other.</p>
<p>he's not going anywhere near the south, that's for sure. But I'm ot sure of the exact location.</p>
<p>oh. right.</p>
<p>What a pointless series of questions. lol. </p>
<p>Any other Arabs? I've seen you around, you know. You're just not making yourself known. hmph.</p>
<p>patience Enn they'll come</p>
<p>yeah, i had to post 3 Egyptian Threads before I got responses (it took 6 months) but this is less specific so it'll take less time.</p>
<p>now my thread has been ignored <em>tears</em></p>
<p>So do all if you guys also live in Arab countries?</p>
<p>*of, not if :) Yeah, it won't let me post just that.</p>
<p>I do but I'm leaving in two weeks to California.</p>
<p>Cool! Stanford, right? I'm so jealous :)</p>
