Monday, April 19, 2010. I had the chance to go to a soccer match a few days ago. It was at the top of my list of things I wanted to do before I left here. It did not disappoint! The game was between 2 in-town rivals, so the atmosphere was electric. So much fun! The excitement and enthusiasm were contagious. Waiting for the game to start. The ahly side (the team we were rooting for). Some of the action. Cheering on our team! Make an on-line slideshow at www.OneTrueMedia.com. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Friday, June 18, 2010. 4 months. 4.can count them on one hand.4. That's how many months I have left in this place. When I was on the other side of this, 4 months seemed like a long time to have been here. Now, these next few months will pass like the blink of an eye. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Sunday, August 1, 2010. Lunch on the floor with a priest. If I had a dollar for everything I've done in the past few years that I thought I'd never do. A plastic recycling shop. Impatiently waiting for lunch to be served. Bil hanna wa shifa. A playground on the way to the metro.check out the guy on the swing. I love this place. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Honor, a donkey, and my brother. For a while now, taxi rides have been pretty run of the mill. Get in, tell my destination, get out, pay. Rinse and repeat. Well, this past week has provided some awesome taxi stories. This was followed by him dancing and singing to his radio and telling jokes all the way home. Such a fun ride. If only they were all like Ashraf. 2 We'll call him Homar. This guy could take a lesson from Ashraf. Do you want to drive or not? Lining up to play a game.

Saturday, October 16, 2010. This post is brought to you by the number 2. Two years ago today, I landed here to start a new life overseas. I can't believe it. Time really does fly. My how I have changed, the things I have seen, learned, and experienced. It has been a phenomenal ride. One that I will never forget. Two days from now, I will be back in America. I feel like it will all seem like a dream. Did I really do that? Did I really live in Egypt for two years? I can't wait to see what is next.

Tuesday, January 26, 2010. This is the way i live. It's rent paying time again! We pay 3 months in advance and always in cash. I always feel like a shady deal is going down when I'm holding that much money. My roommate felt like a gangsta. I stack my money, lay low, and chill.". Monday, January 4, 2010. With the new year has come a new commitment for me. I was reading about Project 365. Also, check out this 2009 Year in Review. I picked a favorite picture from each month last year. And don't stand still.

Thursday, August 26, 2010. Is this really my life? So, I went into a shop the other day, browsing, minding my own business and this guy walks by and says, "Hey." I responded in kind, "Hey." A few minutes later he approaches me, and in perfect English starts up a conversation. I could tell he wasn't from here, but also not American. Here's how it went down. Guy: So do you think this soap will work out for me? Me: You mean the brand? Yeah, sure. I bet it will be fine. (weird question, right?

Saturday, May 1, 2010. When I was a kid, I always had a reason to look forward to Saturday mornings- sleeping in, watching cartoons, or having a soccer game. Now, I get to hang out with these kiddos every Saturday morning tutoring English. They are so much fun! This group would rather play than study- and that's OK with me! These guys are a little more focused. We do get work done, I promise! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). And don't stand still. View my complete profile.
