When death finds me, I hope she finds me alive — I hope she finds me sitting by the window of my home on a calm, quiet night. I’d have lived my life to the fullest, and she’ll sit beside me just so that I would have a shoulder to rest my head on. I would talk to her for hours about the people I’d surrounded myself with and the things I’d done in my life — the kindness I’ve received and given in return, the sorrows that have never truly left me. Though she may not know how to laugh at my half-hearted perhaps self-depricating jokes, I still could hope she listens to every word I say until my eyes fall closed. Maybe she would have enough of a heart to enclose me in her arms.

في أفراح… في ناس بتتأخر كام دقيقة.

وفي ناس… بتوصل متأخر سنين.

فريد واقف قدام باب فرح بنته.
كل اللي عايزه خمس دقايق…
يسلّم عليها، ويبص في وشها، ويمشي.

لكن نورا واقفة بينه وبين الباب.

مش بس بتحاول تحمي أختها من أب غاب عمر…
هي كمان بتحاول تحمي البنت الصغيرة اللي فضلت سنين مستنية يرجع.

**"ده اللي هي محتاجاه… ولا اللي إنت محتاجاه؟"**

سؤال واحد…
وقلب المواجهة كلها.

مشهد عن الغياب…
وعن اعتذار وصل بعد ما بقى متأخر.
بعد ما كلمة **"آسف"** ما بقتش تكفي.

**"امشي يا بابا."**

The room can’t hold me tonight.
The walls are breathing too slow.
My veins are full of fireworks
and every thought arrives overdressed.

I become electricity wearing human skin.

Three hours of sleep
and suddenly I am a prophet,
a poet,
a business plan,
a new religion scribbled in the Notes app at 4 a.m.

I text everyone back instantly.
I love everyone intensely.
Music sounds like it was written specifically for my pulse.
Streetlights wink at me like co-conspirators.

I swear I can feel the universe choosing me.

And isn’t that the dangerous part?
Not the crash.
Not yet.

The dangerous part is how beautiful it feels.

How my reflection finally looks like someone alive.
How confidence blooms so fast it bruises.
How I walk into rooms like a lit match
begging the curtains to test me.

I spend money like future me is fictional.
I make promises like gravity retired.
I flirt with strangers,
with chaos,
with the idea that maybe I was never sick—
maybe everyone else is just moving too slowly.

My mind becomes a highway with no speed limit,
just sparks,
just sermons,
just “I can do anything” echoing
until the sentence turns feral.

Friends say,
“You’re glowing.”

But nobody sees the smoke.

Nobody sees how every bright thought
arrives holding a knife.

Because hypomania is not sadness with better lighting.
It is euphoria with cracked foundations.
It is laughing so hard your ribs become alarms.
It is becoming addicted to your own acceleration.

And when the night finally quiets,
when the music stops sounding holy,
when my heartbeat returns the borrowed stars—

I look around at the wreckage
left by a version of me
that felt invincible
and was terrified the entire time. taken in Arkan Plaza - Sheikh Zayed City by @gusevaeleanora

Some people don’t ask for love anymore.

They just reach the moment where they stop begging for it.

And just like that—it’s a wrap 🎬

I recently had the chance to dive into the Chekhov technique in a workshop with Khaled El Shewy at YouCast—and honestly, I’m still processing how much it gave me.

Going into it as a beginner, I didn’t know what to expect. But that made the experience even more powerful. It pushed me to be open, to let go of overthinking, and to trust something new.

It wasn’t just about acting. It was about discovering parts of myself and my mind I didn’t even know were there. Through imagination, body awareness, and energy work, I started to understand how movement, intention, and inner images can completely transform a character—and even shift something inside you as a person.

We explored things like atmosphere, and how to let the body lead before the mind tries to control everything. It pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best way possible, and made me trust my instincts more. There were moments where I surprised myself, moments where I felt completely free, and moments where everything just clicked.

Khaled is not only an outstanding coach, but someone who is deeply dedicated, present, and incredibly generous with his knowledge. He pays attention to every detail and really sees each actor individually, helping you unlock something that feels personal and real.

And the people… I don’t even know where to start. Being surrounded by such smart, talented, and beautiful souls made the whole experience even more special. Every single person was unique in their own way, and getting to know them truly added something meaningful to my life. They made the days lighter, richer, and unforgettable. The kind of people you feel lucky to share a creative space with.

Grateful for every exercise that challenged me, every moment of vulnerability, every laugh in between, and every connection that was built.

YouCast is, without a doubt, one of the most welcoming and inspiring places I’ve been to so far 🤍 by @gusevaeleanora

Some performances don’t need big words.
Sometimes, the deepest form of love is simply staying.

A delicate monologue from our Imagination Into Action workshop at Youcast, coached by Khaled El Shewy, where actors worked on bringing truth, presence, and emotional depth to the screen.

Same Sun, Same Song

I hate the days rewriting themselves
each day—
like a page that refuses
to stay turned.

The same old song
playing on repeat,
scratched vinyl,
stuck in the same tired groove.

The same sun
that goes up in the morning
like it has somewhere important to be,
like it has purpose—
while I just watch it
climb the sky again
as if nothing ever changes. ☀️

And the same moon
hanging there at night,
pretending to listen,
pretending to understand,
like he’s a companion of loneliness—
a silent witness
to thoughts I never say out loud. 🌙

And I’m still here.

Still me.

Still awake
when the world feels like it’s sleeping
through my questions.

I see the sun rising
again—
another beginning
that feels exactly like yesterday’s ending.

And I’m still breathing.

Still breathing
even when the air feels heavy
with sameness,
with repetition,
with days that blur
into one long echo.

Still breathing—
maybe that’s the quiet rebellion,
the stubborn proof
that even when the days copy themselves,
even when the song won’t change,
even when the sun and moon
take turns watching me—

I am still here.

Still awake.

Still breathing. 🌅 by @gusevaeleanora
