Familial Concerns

Last night was the second night in a row that I ate dinner by myself. I do not really interact with my family. I ask that we speak in Arabic, but they only speak French to me, and that is NOT why I am here. I was invited into

If y'all want to talk to me on the phone, it would be cheaper for everyone involved if y'all call me. There's a calling card that can be used to call me from the US that is about 2¢/minute. If I call y'all from here, both of us will have to pay, and I know that for my part it will cost 4dhm/min (50¢/min). A classmate regularly uses this one special international calling card, and I will get back to you as to its name. Remember that I am on Greenwich Mean Time (5 hours ahead of Boston, 6 hours ahead of Alabama/Houston).

Our readings for Women in Islam are not going well. Six chapters, all saying the same thing, that we must read, summarize, and reflect upon and do so by sharing three copies of each chapter among fourteen people; further, these copies cannot leave the center for additional copies to be made. Yea, like I said it would, it has not gone well. I must return to these readings though. Eventually, they will get done.

It is $1.99 a min to call from here to here on my cell, I need to check knology for the cost from my home phone. I'll try to give you a jingle every once in a while to check up on you. Weekends are ok I hope!!

Thanks for doing so well with the blog. Remember it is the experience - whether or not it is what you want it to be.
