What Im Gonna Miss About Jordan

I am reeeeaaally gonna miss the sheep and goats and camels all over Amman. They're soo cool! they come out and chill on empty lots that are spread out around Jordan.  Im gonna (surprisingly) miss the driving cuz in HK i wont be driving! I will miss my WACKY friends and Gerard the AWESOME ice cream place.  My lovely house and MY AMAZING SCHOOL! Im gonna miss ALL that bout Jordan..

update: i will also miss my family! whoops i probably should not have forgotten them..

Houses

The thing about moving is that you get a new "home" every couple years. A home is where you feel safe and sound, where you can paint your walls and come home to until you graduate.

I've never had that.
I always move RIGHT after i finally feel at home in my house. Until I am an adult, i will never have a real home.
that's sad.
really sad soo sad. I would kill for a REAL home.

My day

Today i said goodbye to the best group of friends ive ever had.
We had lunch together, which (luckily) was filled with laughter and random picture taking(i will be posting some pictures after my laptop is unpacked) Class was great because i did whatever i wanted to do since it was my last day n all. But when the bell rang to go get our report cards, the day slowly went downhill. I got my report card and me, camille and maddy made our way to the locker area to say our final goodbyes. We were greeted by: Hannnah, Farzona, Yazzi, Natalie, Talia and Sara along with some other people. We attacked eachother and i burst into tears. We clung to each other and slowly my other classmates joined us for a spontaneous group hug in wich Omar, Rami and Bassam ( my brothers) joined us in. I cried and cried along with some other people. I dragged myself and some other friends to the bus area and wailed goodbye mournfully. Hannah came onto my bus and we hugged and cried like crazy. I will MISS ALL OF MY CLASSMATES SOOO MUCH. you guys were awesome, and being like me, i have to do this every two years and the sadness never becomes duller.

My Class

I seriously love my class. we're a family, and leaving them is tearing at my heart. Rami, O, and B are my brothers. I love to tease them and give them noogies. (they secretly like it) Farzona is my Z-dog, shes my rock. Hannah (millimania across the globe) is my BFFL who gives me awesome advice. Y, C,M,and N are the rest of the gang. The three Y's are as different as can be, except for their names. YB is girly and ADORES Justin Bieber (blech, seriously) YJ takes control and is like a sledgehammer and YBL is full of hate for me, except for a little sliver of looove. My teachers are FAB and mother us way to much. but i love them! in all, im gonna cry BUCKETS tomorrow!

My Dog

I have a dog.
Yup, you heard me. Im Jordanian and have a dog. AND SHE LIVES IN MY HOUSE.
yessir, i touch her. i kiss her even, and it doesnt bother me. But my neighbours barely make eye contact with me when i take her for a walk. Dogs are "nigis" to muslims, and whoever touches them has a..illness? i don't know EXACTLY. But it's REALLYYY annoying sometimes. Even though i don't LOOK jordanian, i speak arabic and the shocked look on peoples faces when they see that im with Poppy (my dog) they have a heart attack. Heres some pics of my darling girl!

What to Do: Friends on the first day

Making friends is hard. harder than everyone (adults) think. As a kid, many factors affect who you make friends with. What you say and look like affect your future friends. (good and bad) but it's better that way. Walk into class sulking no one will talk to you no matter how bubbly you are AFTER the first day of school. Walk in happy and everyone will love you no matter how depressed you are afterward. It's all about the look of you. First impressions MATTER to a depressing level. Walk in like this:
 And you will not make ANY friends. Maybe Emo friends if youre into that.
walk in like THIS:

you will make MANY, MANY friends.
JUST SO YOU ALL KNOW.
