Concert Tonight!

So for those of you who didn't know the United States beat Egypt in the last match which was very unfortunate because the Egyptians were just so sad, and I was sad too because I love the Egyptian team. Anyway on to more exciting news the program has bought us all tickets to see a famous Egyptian band tonight, their name is wast el balad. It means downtown. I have heard very good things about them and I am looking forward to seeing them tonight.

Every week we have a guest speaker come speak to us on a particular topic. So this week we had someone talk to us about the history of the streets in Alexandria. It was a very cool discussion but difficult to follow and take notes. We had to take notes because we have to write a paper on each guest speaker. I think this is one of the hardest things we have to do, this is probably because I am just horrible at Arabic. I don't understand how I got here. But I will be writing my blog in Arabic from now on because that is our homework, but don't worry I will have the English one there as well. They will basically say the same thing. You can always use google translate in case you get curious as to what I am writing.

My backspace stopped working on my computer so I will be writing much less until I get it fixed.

I'll let you know how the concert goes, it is going to be in the Library of Alexandria so that is exciting enough.

Bye!
