Taxis

So yesterday was not my day for taxis. I went to visit my friend in Garden City and it was too late to take the metro. The taxi said he would take me right away, which suprised me. Then he scared me by putting on his seatbelt. I was like oh this must be a dangerous highway so I went to put mine on but I didn't have one! ahh!! Then he didn't know exactly where he was going so I had him take me to AUC and then he dropped me off in the road. talk about almost heart attack!! but my friend came and picked me up and it was a lot of fun just hanging out and he was nice enough to ride back in the taxi with me because it was 2:30 in the morning. Then that taxi got lost !! and I can't even find my way back to the metro so how the hell should I know where my street is? hahah well we finally got home. The good thing was that I could understand his arabic and he could understand me. lol the first thing he asked was my opinion about George Bush...and I was like uhh ...lol thats a touchy subject! And then he went on a rant about war and was asking why everyone is dying. lol good question. oh well. At least he didn't drop me off in a busy street!:)


oh and I just finished my oral exam today. I think it went a lot better than my written exam. And the testers ended up knowing my arabic teacher from UW. Such a small world! oh and there's 5 students here from UW also. crazy!!
