A lesson in Arabic.

So I finally got to look at the pictures of the Geneva Hotel that Karl posted earlier. They are pretty acurate but the hotel is a bit dirtier. In fact, all of Amman seems to have a thick coating of dust all over it. It may be that it has just been cloudy and raining the whole time I have been here but it seems very dingy.

So I had my best meal yet last night. It was rice with a fish on top and salsa on the side. It was the most flavorful, tasty meal I have had so far. I never knew how much I would appreciate salsa!

Have I mentioned that my family feeds me a lot of food? Yesterday I got home at 6pm and ate the above meal until 6:20. By 7pm we had also consumed a plate each of apples, oranges, and tangerines, followed by cups of mixed nuts. From 7-8pm we watched Oprah. Then, I started falling asleep on the couch so they had me take a short nap (they insisted!) and I awoke at 8:30pm. At that point they brought out the tea and sandwiches for dinner! Not only was I completely full, but the sandwiches were grilled feta cheese with tomatoes and cucumber. I know it sounds good, but the cheese here is really salty. It was like pouring salt down my throat. I started gagging halfway through my first sandwich and I gave up. Probably a good thing too or I would have been stuffed.

I had my first real arabic class today and still haven't decided which section to be in. I have to decide by wednesday though. I might just stay in the one I went to today (the second one) and hope to learn lots of arabic from my host family.

We also start our supplemental lectures today. This afternoon is about tribalsim. I think it will be interesting. And I will write more about it when I get a chance.
