saharan adventure in T minus 36 hours and counting

Yes OBVIOUSLY I have a paper due. and it must be an important one ... worth... say 70% of my grade...beacuse there would be NOOOOOOOOOO other reason I am just playing around on the internet!

Anyway there is that and Aly and I leave on SUNDAY! yes SUNDAY! Oh my GOODNESS!

Checklist:
  • Hold the mail (just went online and did that ...seee procrastinating on the paper paid off)
  • Shots (5 ... COUNT THEM 5 including Typhoid, Hep A, Menengitis, Polio, and Yellow Fever which I had to get the yellow fever one to get into the country)

Ok never mind about the checklist because I keep thinking about stuff and its freakin me out!
I did get this handy arabic Phrase book that is pretty cool. The arabic is correct (according to Aly) but the transliteration is Egyptian style, so Aly told me to read the arabic. Like that will be NOOOOOOOOO problem at all.

Me: Salaam alaikom Salma squiggle squiggle Line dot?

Maybe I will just do alot of pointing to the book.

anyway the adventure of a lifetime... I have NO idea what to expect or what will happen.

please keep me in your prayers and Du'aas
