انا باش نمشي الى اماريكا حالا

So, I just finished my last weekend at LVN and I'm quite sad it's coming to a close. Over the past 4 weeks I have been able to make so many new friends and while I don't honestly think I will keep in touch with more than 5 or 6 people, so many more made my stay here unforgettable.

Took a louage with a friend to Sousse which was tons of fun--the only problem was not enough time there. Sousse is basically a beach town, so we walked down the main street to the beach. Swam for a bit, and then walked over to the medina and saw the ribat and a few other landmarks, then headed back to the village to grab a bus to take us to el djem for a concert the embassy payed for us to go to.

The only thing I will say was the louage service let me down... completely. EVERYONE that I know thats taken one says 'be careful! they drive like crazy! they speed horribly!' and well, on the way there the hour long trip took 1 1/2 hrs... this means our driver went UNDER the speed limit. lame. and on the way back, our driver, while he drove a bit fast, he was by no means going more than 15 kilometers over the speed limit AND he stopped for a good 20 min to pick up a friend.

Sunday was a basic souk shopping spree in nabeul and all and all I call it a successful weekend to end on.

Tonight are the students present powerpoints, skits, or sing depending on what they have been working on-- and assuming that they are chosen, which is just all kinds of sad that some of them work the entire time and dont get to present for no real reason at all. I mean I understand not everyone can present, but some of the ones chosen are just terribly boring.

Anywho, I'm off to finnish packing--we head for the airport at 4am tomorrow. I'll work on adding in more photos once im back in the states.

B'slema!
