Aya Khalil was so excited by the news from Egypt that she was giggling.
“It’s probably one of the happiest days of my life,” the 23-year-old Egyptian-American said Friday night. “It is surreal.”
Khalil is a graduate student at the College of Charleston and a daughter of Egyptian immigrants. Though she has lived in the United States her entire life, she has many relatives in Egypt and has spent just about every summer vacationing there.
