Festivities

Yes....it's been a while again...my bad, eeek!
It's 8.30am on Friday morning, first day of the weekend and I'm awake. I was in bed last night at 9.30! That's how tired I've become as the term is coming to an end. School has been hard work and now that our inspection is over, I think everyone is now ready for a holiday. We thankfully passed our accreditation and are just waiting on the report now. Speaking of reports....that's is currently my overhanging job to do until next Thursday. Fun times!

I wanted to share my first ever Thanksgiving experience which I had last Thursday. You see, I have a new American friend and she decided to host a big dinner party where everyone brought their own dish. It was fantastic because it was such a nice atmosphere and everyone had the chance to say what they are thankful for. Personal I don't think that we do this enough. It's such a valuable experience and helps you look on the bright side of everything. I had such a fun evening and felt like I've made some real friends here (which to be honest I was a little lonely a few months ago).

Next Thursday, I am travelling to Lebanon to film our performance for Arab's Got Talent. I still can't believe that we are going! There will be 8 of our from our crew and half of us have never traveled before so there is excitement all round! Wish us luck ;)
