Been a minute

And while Im happy to be back in the UAE, yes there are some of us who genuinely feel this way though we are the minority, I havent quite jumped back into blogging but thats because ive not been doing anything. Went to Al Mushrif and some stores are open but not many...I have to take my car in tomorrow for service because the ac isnt cold and my  blinkers arent working. something TOLD me to get out and look at them!!! Im just hoping that it can be done in that day or that they can order something and have me come back. My saving grace is that, when driving, one doesnt necessarily NEED signals. You just get in where you fit in and its all good. And as I type this, whats even more strange is that I JUST noticed something...and does this mean that Im a good driver????

NOONE HAS BEEN BLOWING THEIR HORNS AT MEEEEEEE!haha


so today we went to check out that place and it should be a go and we will see. He has high hopes and after seeing it again today my hopes are up as well. If the move takes place,there will be a video posted of the grounds as it is sure to please those who would want a second year upgrade.

and speaking of upgrade. I saw the place new teachers have been put in and theyre really stepping up their game in that regard. I know of someone who went crazy inside the confines of their living arrangement, so much so that they left and if there were to see the diggs that I saw they would more than likely WISH they had been patient and lasted til this year for something else. But alas, everything is not for everyone I suppose. If others arent really pleased with their places, something may be amiss inside,lol.of them I mean,lol. J/K


Yes, work has started.No, I dont ahve anything to say about it. Stay tuned though because I will soon.Lots of new teachers.ie, personalities,pedagogies,ideas,etc.
Something funny happened today. God has a sense of humor. Oh, and from what someone told me today, he also loves me because I think my wish is going to come true in regards to work.

Now if I could just get all of this teacher stuff out of the apartment. My husband would surely be happy!

should I? shouldnt I? THAT is the question... horror stories, complaints,regrets in opposition with people who speak as if they have no plans on returning to the previous dwelling place. What to believe? Are the kids hellians or little angels? Is the classroom fully stocked or bare?Will you have admin support, admin indifference,or admin from Hades? Sadly, noone can answer this question and not because of "a lack of freedom of speech". Its because everything-in every country-is subjective. And because if one is going to pack up and live in another country for a couple years, this would be one of the more difficult places to do so as you are used to life thats quite different from being here. I can agree 100% with some of the posters of TA/FB. "if the idea of teaching in an inner city school doesnt suite your fancy, steer clear of here". And thats not to compare the two because nothing really compares to this place but there are some similarities (even if

Moroccanoil Soap

If youve read this blog for any length of time, Im sure youve gotten your laughs off my Moroccan bath experience. As crazy as that was for me, i believe I will be going to get one again, though at a much better establishment! Today, I ran across this product  And while waiting in line for a price, an Arabic lady gave it the once over, looked inside, and nodded her head in approval of what was inside. After seeing it was only 9.50 dhm, I got another. Once I try it, I will certainly give a review! In the meantime, here is information about the product-or products like this: Moroccan Black Soap and How To Use It The black soap is part of the traditional hammam ritual. It is the first treatment in oriental public bath. With a texture of butter, this natural vegetable paste based with black olives is rich in vitamin E. It is obtained from a mixture of oil and crushed olives, soaked in salt and potash. In the nineteenth century it was used as a product of Dermatology and later be
