Long Weekend

Hanane returned from the hospital today but I have not been home yet to see her. The center will be closed for renovation for tomorrow and the weekend but I have enough homework to make me need to stay at home and be good anyways. There will be friends and family visiting every day for the rest of my stay in the house, so that should prove interesting. I helped the family move a bed into Hanane and baby's new room. They were being silly and unsafe and I showed them how to do things. The fête de bébé will almost certainly be this weekend. I have already gone vegetarian, and I am sure that my second viewing of an animal slaughter will only affirm my conversion.

We are rushing in Arabic. We just rushed through the single most difficult lesson in the textbook in a single day (in normal BU Arabic class they spend up to two weeks on it). This is grand. What else is grand? Why, the weather. It was sunny and 70 all day today. I hope that the weather forecast is honest for once.

I'm finishing up the Twilight series and starting Through the Looking Glass. I have picked up this odd past time of planning out themed dinner parties, some of which are quite elaborate. I've created six so far and am currently working on a Wonderland one. I hope one day to have the means to throw any one of these parties. Maybe my next one should be really-modest-college-kitchen themed.
