2009: A Recap

Ah yes, remember that New Year's Resolution of mine? Well February is as good a time as any to begin it. January 1 is a rather arbitrary date anyways...

At the end of last year I completed my first semester here at TYO and I think it went off pretty well. True, the size of my drama class had dwindled over the weeks but I had a core group of girls who showed up early and left late so I couldn't have been doing too badly, don't you think? I think that the moms were pleased with the exercise class as well and (preview!) I saw some familiar faces at my first moms' class for this semester... repeat customers eh?

I was a bit reluctant to go home for Christmas when I did. Don't get me wrong, I was excited to see my loved ones, but I have really begun to look at Palestine as my home. To give you some perspective, the address on my driver's license is that of my brother's apartment in Brighton, a place that I've only visited... and he doesn't even live there anymore. Outside of being wherever whoever I love is, home is as much Nablus right now as it is Boston... probably moreso. Even in my last few weeks here I had wonderful experiences and met wonderful new people.

A quick hello to all of you that I saw when I was home, and especially to those of you that I didn't get a chance to see... a fair lot of you in fact. I miss you all terribly and you should come to freaking Nablus to visit me :)
