Apollo 3arabi
Boredom is good, it makes you think of things, weird good things, that you would not think of when you are not normally bored.
As I’m not yet enjoying this warm Wednesday and still crying my eyes out waiting for winter time, I was thinking of taking a good shower, shave and go for an iPod walk that will eventually end up in some cafe having a nice hot Mocha and reading the overtly detailed novel “61 hours”, or maybe scratch and scribble even more, but what bugs me sometimes (that I used to find it cute, not anymore) the cafe workers would come and gather around me when I draw which would block my light and I really dislike it when people stand over my shoulder when I am enjoying doing something.
Anyway, before taking that walk, I was looking at a photo of Apollo I snapped in the Jordanian Museum of Archeology last week, which is located on top of the Citadel mountain, great small museum, I liked it, but it looks like a stupid shop, I guess you can easily grab things and go out, it does not seem like they have any security systems or anything like that, but the point is, the museum has nice things inside (check it out if you are in Amman or visiting, just drive from Downtown up to the citadel mountain and enjoy a nice day there, bring your own water, you do not want to buy over-priced warm water anyway).
I found Apollo there! and Zues, like not the best versions of them, but still good ones.
So here I am, vandalizing Apollo’s sweet image, but adding an Arab touch to it.
