So two entries ago, when I talked about going on a desert safari, I mentioned that a lot happened that week which made it hard to update. I still am not sure how to go into everything, but some of it I need to address sooner rather than later.
I am ...
My new nickname needs to be "racoon" or bandit, or something along those lines. I went to the pool the other day to swim and read and just enjoy the wonderful Dubai weather. I remembered to put sunscreen on before I went, but I forgot to reapply. So I bu...
When too much happens in a week it is just as had to sit down to write as when nothing happens at all. ...

I went on a desert safari this past weekend. It was an amazing experience. It is something I would come back to Dubai for. The desert i...
I have been working out pretty much everyday. One day while I was in the gym I was looking in the mirror and realized how annoying my long hair was. So on Thursday after my Arabic class I cut it. I got it cut really short. It was a weird sensation watch...
i was bad today and only drank 1.5 Liters of water today and drank copious ammounts of pop instead. I am paying the price though. My lower back is killing me! It hasn't hurt this bad in awhile. I am not sure if there is any actual connection between lots...
I need to update this thing. I just don't really no what to say. I went home for a couple of days last week. It unfortunately was not as nice as I had imagined. I didn't have enough time to spend with everyone I wanted to see, and so managed to stress mys...
....I am no longer enjoying being sore. Today I had football practice, and it went pretty well, except for the fact that my leg cramped up really bad. I don't really know what happened. We did our warm up, and stretched. We were running around for awhile...
Yesterday was the last day of the shopping festival in Dubai. Luckily, my bank situation got worked out before that, because I was able to buy all my football equipment on sale. I got a pair of David Beckam cleats. I liked them because they looked neat,...
I was so sore this morning when I woke up. My arms were sore, and I can't figure out how that happened. I wasn't really using my arms in football (soccer). What I felt this morning is nothing to what I feel now though. I look like a really old person, e...
So anyway, after practice Gina and I decided to walk to 24/7 to get gatoraid. We could have gotten it at the Uni-mart on campus, but my muscles seemed to need a little walk to try and loosen up and cool-down. So we walked over and Gina said that she want...
I feel so great right now. I am a little worn out, and my calves are cramping, but it is such a
wonderful feeling. I went to football practice (soccer) today, and I am really glad I did. I was a little confused, because I thought it was try-outs, b...
So I went out again. It was a lot of fun. We went to the roof top above the club trilogy. I guess normally it is very busy, but it was a little bit empty tonight. I really liked it that way. There was room to move around. Wessal's friends got us a table...
Today was a good day. I was a bit lazy as I stayed in bed until noon (but I was up until 4:30am). When I woke up I took a few min to meditate and ground myself before beginning my day. It may sound kind of silly but it was really nice.
Then I finall...
I can't forget to record my lunchtime experiences today. But I need to back up first.
Gina and I tend to walk over to Dubai Internet City for lunch. It is close and we can get food that is at a decent price. Yesterday we were walking around outside ...
Tonight Gina's sort of boyfriend, ditched her at the last min. They were supposed to go out, but he was too tired. So she and I got to hang out a little bit more.
In an effort to kill time we watched Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Gina ha...
