I just saw my little host brother and sister fight in front of me for the first time....I can't help but find it REALLY funny. A lot of things about people and families are truly universal.
It is so hot here. I take a shower and I'm not even finished getting dressed again before I already feel gross. I think I'm getting used to it, though. Mind over matter....I have just accepted the fact that I am going to be hot for the next two months.
I had two more quizzes yesterday and I aced them both!!!
It's the weekend.....yay....I'm learning SO MUCH Arabic but my brain needs a break. I just had a big breakfast and now I'm going to sleep for a bit because it's the weekend, dangit. Tonight the gang and I are going to Souk Jara, an open-air market on Rainbow street with hand-made crafts, organic food, and other hipster-like things....=) After, we're going to another Friday-night concert nearby. They have a local artist play at Souk Jara every week!
Anyways....things are pretty quiet in Amman. Idk if you've heard about what Israel did (attacked a flotilla of humanitarian aid ships to Gaza OUTSIDE of their boundaries, those a-holes)...but don't worry, there's really nothing going on here, beyond some peaceful and security-regulated demonstrations. All demonstrations here must have govt. clearance, so that the police can ensure things stay safe.
I'm very excited because I'm going to have the chance to attend an Arabic wedding while I'm here in July!!! Joud and my aunt are already teaching me Arabic dancing...it's a good time. =)
Anyways, not much more to report.
Ma-Salaama!
