Our Friend in Bahrain
Today we’re introducing Simon, a new Mideast Piece partner living in Bahrain originally from the Philipines. According to Simon, the show TV show “Ally McBeal” changed his life and set him on the road to post-closet life (am I the only one who stayed in the closet because of that show?). True to Ally form, Simon describes himself as “poetic, cynical, paranoid, psychotic, a dreamer, depressed, and a wishful thinker.”
From time to time we will run his content about life (including gay life) in Bahrain. For starters, I liked his friend’s insight on those first few minutes after waking up, published in an entry called “Reboot:”
Ever wonder why when you wake up in the morning you just can’t seem to talk… That you’re so silent for more than 10 minutes…. I have this arab acquaintance that gave a very stupid explanation.
” habibi (my friend) , the morning when you wake up then you no talk at all, thats your brain rebooting, just like computer la? (Yes?)”
Kindda makes sense but still stupid, its like reset but on a much complicated system, but come to think of it, wouldn’t it be great when you could just reboot when you’re having a breakdown, you know, delete some bad memories here and there, then defrag for faster performance.
hmmm
