Salaams everyone... hope everyone is doing well like we are over here.... as you can tell by the title, syria has blocked facebook...lol.. it really sucks cause that was the primary way for us to stay in touch with our family and friends...oh well, atleast we have email and this blog. We are back at the Internet cafe today to update our blog, cause we still dont have fast enough internet at our school. One of our teachers was really nice and he gave us a free internet card so we can use dial up, which we have been using to check our email, however its not nearly fast enough to do other things. Today, Sabiha and I are both updating, so there may be some repeat material, but its ok, im sure you wont mind :)
Last time we blogged, we talked about how home sick we were, Alhamd, now we are much better cause the institute we are studying at, planned a little trip for us to get away for a little while. I believe Sabiha is writing about the trip, so I dont want to repeat it, but lets just say, we are back, rejuvenated and ready for our next vacation!!! LOL, just kidding, we are ready for school, i think:) two more days of vacation and we are going to make the most of it, sleep sleep and sleep. LOL, cause once school starts, we will not be getting much of it.
Lots of people coming to Damascus this time of the year, we have met so many people, most we dont know, some we do, sufficient enough to say that our khoja radars are on...lol.. hahaha.... soon the pilgrims will be back from Hajj, so there will be a lot more people here. We have been speaking a lot of arabic the last couple of days, which has impressed a lot of people, considering we have only being studying it for 3 months. Alhamd, sometimes i pray a lot that we can learn a lot, but rarely do I thank Him for what he has blessed us with already, and truly he has... so Alhamd!!!
Today we had KFC...lol.. this is the 2nd time we have had it and it was darn good!! And i was real excited to see the Lakers beat the Suns!!! YES!!! still following the lakers and missing them dearly... no not dearly, DEARLY!!! lol.. and they are playing really well this year, so keep it up!!!
Anyways, gotta run, have already spent an hour here, need to go home and eat some more KFC...lol.. remember us in your prayers!!!
Peace
