Paradise?


So Ive been thinking about a move to Reem Island . Not because I have a bad place (I dont) or because Im in a bad location (Im not),but because we plan on being here long term and this place has much more of a home feel as there are so many amenities there. The only drawback is the the location, which is also nice as far as I know right now. Only thing is its too close to Tourist Club and thats not a place I care for too much. And if the link above doesnt convince someone maybe the future plans will!

We have all that we would need to stay there pretty much and this place has...drumroooooooollllll-CLOSETS! Once of them even a walk in. It may sound like it but I dont have my hopes up and Im not even excited about it at this point. Im just looking at my options.This would be the one and only time youd catch me living on an island.

My only requirement? That I live on a bottom lower level floor. Should be an easy enough request as most people want to be higher up.Not us.Definitely not us!

    tough question. the first thing i did was check to see if it was a natural island or a man made one! and the first floor? what if there is a flood? then you would want to be on a higher level! guess you cant always live by the "what if's". if the budget says, "yes," do it.

    Bottom floor...might want to rethink that. I was on bottom floor...traffic central! Not only do you hear all traffic going to elevator, but you also hear custodians cleaning, mopping, trash cans slamming against building at 6am. Most buildings here have a trash system that require a huge metal drum on the ground floor. Guess you hears that daily?

    Oh...and the neighbor's on top of you...if they have little kids...forget it! Game over!! I had a family of five with three little ones under three. NIGHTMARE.

    All buildings are different, but the ones with many floors were a disaster in AD and AA.

    Just my experience...I got outta there fast and now live in a 2-story building on top floor.

    Ive always preferred lower level floors.Not bottom per se but I want to be able to get out when/if I need to.Id get to sleep faster hearing kids than worrying about if I was going to be stuck in the top/middle of a 60 floor building (that also sways) (*_*).
    funny how we all can or cant take different things,lol.

order it!

you have to make a decision about what is ok to buy here and what you should send for. For instance, if its something I should just learn to live without, I dont bother. If Im home visiting, I make a decision about whether I should bring it back. Like poultry seasoning (for a proper southern,savory dressing aka stuffing). I brought enough to last me until my next trip home. Other things, like shampoo or some hair products. I really couldnt bring enough to last as those things are heavy so I make do with what is here.Luckily, my kind of hair is resilient to the water so Im not having much problems aside from dryness which coconut water seems to be helping with. Anyway. One thing I made sure to bring enough of was bras. And I had so many that it wasnt necessary to get some last year. But now? Now its about the time to figure something out. And if youre a lady, you know when you need to throw that bra out,lol. Its definitely about that time. And, yes, I could look here but Im not on ...

This will do

So I just havent made it around to making a video of the place.Part of that is because my phone, which had the great camera on it,is no longer.And leave it to me to buy a cute phone with a horrible camera.yes, I have a camera with video but its just too much hassle.At least I think so. And because Im supposed to be honing my craft, I decided to post my place in pictures. Enjoy. My color palette all these switches for one little bathroom no tv. . .yet just the two of us! I love this contraption,lol and on the off times that this occurs. . . I just use my teacher dry erase marker,lmbo So,so glad to finally be clutter free! cleaning takes one day a week besides the every other day of sweeping bc its super dusty here.I have ONE pile of stuff left and thats only because I need a book shelf.Thats coming soon.ļ»æ

Turning Tides

6 months ago I wasn't to happy with my situation. I was feeling stifled in terms of teaching time and a  host of other things and my main focus in life was to get OUT.  I must say that the year has progressed rather nicely and Im not feeling the same way about the year. Thanks to my coteacher, who understands what the kids need and provides those things even when someone says otherwise,we  are having a great year! I can't say that I would feel this way with another teacher. Our classroom runs smoothly and the kids are self sufficient. Today, two kids decided to make a book in the science center. The books were pre made with the title and had two pages for them to draw animals or write. They were provided with real pictures of animals to choose from and had been given instructions previously about their options (to draw animals they saw at the zoo, animals from the book The Very Hungry Caterpillar, or to use the pictures if necessary). We also started this week putting ...
