So tomorrow my school is having a huge Health Fair. In fact this is a two day extravaganza! From what I hear it's going to be a show stopper. From what I hear the kids, well KG2, have songs, plays and poems about being healthy. From what I hear there are sponsors and the Ruwais community will be turning out en masse. From what I hear....
Now for this BIG FAIR, that is being held at the men's rec center, the kids were to have a run through last week Thursday. Didn't happen. It was moved to Sunday. Didn't happen. It was moved to today. Didn't happen. So now I cannot help but wonder will we have a fair tomorrow? Insha'allah it will go off without a hitch but my slightly type A personality is in a bit of a panic. Sad thing is there's nothing I can do to help though I've asked a million times. Oh well...I flow like water, which incidentally is the new joke between the Arabic teachers and I. When things aren't going at all like I was told they would, one will look at me and say "You flow like the water" and it just makes us all smile at the situation.
On another note: I've always loved scarves now being out here in the desert with the whipping wind that easily carries grains of sand that sting on contact I've a deeper appriciation of them. It's nothing for me to walk out these days with my face covered...yes I now understand why these women do what they do.
