Last time on . . . Life in Kuwait!

Wow it has really been a long time since I last checked in. Sorry about that.  But here I am to update you on everything that has happened.

School:
Is the place that I spend the most time awake during the week.  Getting up at 3:30 and being on a bus at 5:15 really makes you tired at the end of the day.  The time at school is basically always go go go.  Which is great because I can't stand being bored or having nothing to do.  My kids have settled in really nicely and some of them are coming out of their shell more and more each day which is both good and a needs improvement thing.  But its so much fun being in Grade 4 again.  Being able to joke around with them and teach them a little sarcasm is great.  I know as a teacher they tell you not to but my kids seem to get it.

Home:
Last week I printed out about 300 pictures and then hung them all up.  I have really embraced the whole not organizing them too much and just putting them where it feels right.  I also got some Ikea wall stickers (having Ikea in the mall is both an amazing thing but also a place to stay away from).  Here are some pictures of what my place looks like with pictures:

Other additions to my life:
I am now the proud owner for an I-Phone 4 which has been very exciting being able to be on the internet anywhere.  It is far bigger than my I-Pod touch but that little guy is not getting neglected not to worry.  I also finally got my bank card and rumor has it we will have our civil IDs by the end of the week. Holding my thumbs and crossing my fingers in hope that I won't have to wait an extra 2 weeks to get mine.

Later on in the week I promise I will update about prices of regular food items and about other exciting events going on.
