Day 1 of work consisted of cookies courtesy of Rhaham, kisses all around, Araglish(Arabic/English) chit chat about who had babies(everyone had boys) and LT hunting. The bulk of my oh so grueling 4 hour day was spent on facebook trying to make contact with the LTs my principal was sent...Facebook is awesome. Had I not had that I would have been oh so bored. My brain can only process so much Arabic at a time and likewise for the ladies and my English. In fact I would speak to them in English and the replies would come in Arabic lol With a bit of discrenment I could follow the conversation but that take so much brain power.
Tomorrow our very eager LTs are supposed to show up. These ladies are planning on commuting 4hours round trip everyday till they get housing...they are better than I. I surely had no thoughts of any such thing when I arrived in December. Ah well we'll see what the rest of the week brings...
