"CAPS LOCK internet cafe"
Make Dua....
So tomorrow is the big day we make our second attempt to get into Pali...we have asked around and everyone says that our only chance of possibly going in is to try another bridge that is specifically designed for foreign citizens...none of us are really that hopeful...but we are gonna try and see what comes of it...i dont even know anymore...well if i do make it in then i will be prob off da net for two weeks but if i dont i will be sure to report back to you all...take care and please feel free to leave comments...its been kinda difficult and lonely around here...i miss you all and actually there are many things about the states that i realized i also miss and had always taken for granted and i feel like it is now my duty to share that with you guys so that you can also appreciate them while you have them:
1) always having hot water for showering...
2) always having water
3) AC
4)no dust in the air which aggitates the allergies i forgot i had
5) somewhat safe drivers that dont make me feel like i am attempting sucide everytime i enter a car
6) friends (its not that i dont have friends here...i just miss you guys and my friends here are super busy...i mean they have jobs (yuck "in my head right now i am singing the toy r us song")
7) internet access (which has actually gotten a lot better here i mean they have wirless in some of the cafes here, naturally in the rich areas)
8) sadly...time and motivation to study for the LSAT
well while i am at it it is only fair to now count the things i will miss here:
1) the sound of athan (the call to prayer)
2) NO HUMIDIDTY (and not needing the AC all the time)
3) FOOD!!
4) having nothing to do but sleep
5) having a country that runs on your time (the ave work day starts at 9-10 and people dont actually go out until 8-9pm and 100's of things are open until 3 am!!)
6) our home (the building) :(
7) my sister
8) being so close to "home" (Palestine, though i will say being less them 2 hours away and not being allowed in is even harder and more infuriating)
funny how some things cross list...anyway...yeah i know boooring entry..but thats all i got right now...love you all...take care of yourselves...peace..and pray not that we get in...but that nothing but the best happens (long story about "not getting in" one i dont know if i will ever be able to get into) Peace out
