Still blogging, but does anyone care!!

Hello All, yes we are wondering the same things you are, why are we still blogging?? LOL, the first year of our studies ended, we are back home enjoying our summer vacation, so we were wondering if there is still a need for blogging...? But the fact that we are currently still blogging, must tell you of what our answer was to that question.... still with me...LOL.

So since we have been back, we have done quite a lot of nothing... we have hung out with family and friends, gone to eat at some nice restaurants that we were looking forward to (by the way, since we have been gone, there have been a few very nice restaurants that have opened up here in LA.. some fanstastic burger joints.. yummy...) we have also done a couple of presentations at different centers. A few weeks ago we did a presentation about our first year experience at our mosque, and then we were invited to an Iraqi mosque to do the same presentation. Alhamd, it was a big success, and one of the important things we learned is that the same issues which are effecting us Khojas are the same issues that are effecting others as well. Also, what we learned is that the Iraqi youth are just like our youth... they dont speak their mother tongue. So this is a problem that effects all of us, here in this land of the free and home of the brave :) actually dont this is a prob of just America, it is problem of the west, where people lose their identity and culture.

Oh well, besides that, we are soon going to Orlando for a wedding. Neither of us has been to Orlando, so this will definitely be fun. Really looking forward to it. Then we will come back to LA and then head out to TO.. we are planning a little get away just for ourselves in between those two trips, once confirmed we will let you know about it :)

Take care and remember us in your prayers...
