Once upon a time, a long long time ago
While going through the millions of pictures that have piled up on my hard disk throughout the years, I came upon an annoyingly nostalgic picture:
This picture was probably taken during the year 2000 in Hasa, Saudi Arabia, on one of my dad’s family excursions. It brings back many, many memories- our bi-annual road trips, abayas, the warm winters of Saudi Arabia, and most importantly, the fact that I was once the tallest Assi.
Naturally, when the boys saw this picture, they all rolled on the floor with laughter, “Inti. Konti. Atwal. Mena?”
Yes. Ana. Kont. Atwal. Minkom. Tsawaro.
Today, I am the resident midget.
