I wished to serve as her anchor in these moments, without being so vulgar as to make known to her that this was a role I felt she need someone to play” (Hamid 86). ]]> 2017-11-02 22:03:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jhorcasi/j2axemaaif70/wish/203131865 jhorcasi https://padlet.com/jhorcasi/j2axemaaif70/wish/203131982 “I felt like a distance runner who thinks he is not doing too badly until he glances over his shoulder and sees that the fellow who is lapping him is not the leader of the pack, but one of the laggards. Perhaps it was for this reason that I did something in Manila I had never done before: I attempted to act and speak, as much as my dignity would permit, more like an American. The Filipinos we worked with seemed to look up to my American colleagues, accepting them almost instinctively as members of the officer class of global business – and I wanted my share of that respect as well” (Hamid 65). ]]> 2017-11-02 22:04:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jhorcasi/j2axemaaif70/wish/203131982 jhorcasi https://padlet.com/jhorcasi/j2axemaaif70/wish/203132028 “We had flown first-class, and I will never forget the feeling of reclining in my seat, clad in my suit, as I was served champagne by an attractive – and yes, I was indeed so brazen as to allow myself to believe – flirtatious flight attendant. I was, in my own eyes, a veritable James Bond – only younger, darker, and possibly better paid. How odd it seems now to recall that time; how quickly my self of self-satisfaction would later disappear!” (Hamid 63-64). ]]> 2017-11-02 22:04:53 UTC https://padlet.com/jhorcasi/j2axemaaif70/wish/203132028 jhorcasi https://padlet.com/jhorcasi/j2axemaaif70/wish/203132304 “Confronted with this reality, one has two choices: pretend all is well or work hard to restore things to what they were. I chose both. At Princeton, I conducted myself in public like a young prince, generous and carefree. But I also, as quietly as I could, held down three on campus jobs – in infrequently visited locations, such as the library of the Program in Near Eastern Studies – and prepared for my classes throughout the night. Most people I met were taken in by my public persona” (Hamid 11). ]]> 2017-11-02 22:06:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jhorcasi/j2axemaaif70/wish/203132304 mgluckman https://padlet.com/jhorcasi/j2axemaaif70/wish/207323923 The imagery of the ocean shows the fluctuations and instability of emotions of the woman.
