Well I haven't updated this blog in a while...so bad I know. But I've been so very busy over here. Let's see...
-I had my first really bad week at work and found out a snake's a snake. Nope it wasn't a member of the Arabic faculty. Oh well I got over it and am very careful now.
-Survived my first evaluation. Now that was one for the books. I wish it would have been recorded for everyone to see. I thought I was being punked. Honesely, when my principal suggested I teach Arabic and the Arabic teacher teach English I thought she was joking. Nope she was dead serious. lol The questions that were thrown at be by a panel of four yup FOUR people were about as amusing as the looks on their faces when the other would speak. It was all I could do to keep a straight face. It was so clear that the number of people had nothing to do with getting an in dept assessment of my understanding of ADEC policiy and best practices. It was more about each making sure that the others didn't mess up lol.
-Finally I went a a desert Safari! Yay! I'm not the best with a camera so I didn't get pictures of the camp site or the entertainment oh well. I did climb to the top of a dune while the bellydancing was happening. It was a beautiful view.
Before hitting the dunes we stopped at tourist trap. No I didn't get that lol
The tourist trap. Scary bathrooms!
After we've slid down sand dunes head first and sideways we got a break.
At the camel farm
Camel farm again. Her feet are tied together 'cause she's pregnant and they don't want her moving about too much. That's what the driver told us anyway.
That's the car that played tag with us over the dunes. I swear you think you're about to roll over then they swerve and all is well. Dune bashing-not for the faint of heart.
Can't believe I live here! Amazing
My new favorite plant. It looks so beautiful but if you touch it and rub your eyes you will go blind. Beautiful but deadly!
My first camel ride. Those things are tall!!!
My new friend and I.
I love sunsets in general. Desert sunsets are wonderful as well.
