My Neighborhood and Stuff

This is a photoset of my neighborhood. Part of it anyway. This is the City Stars side. 

This is a mosque that is next to the buildings. 

That is City Stars (only a very small part of it)

These are stairs that lead to the buildings. 

This is from the top of the stairs. 

Then we walk a little bit more. 

This is a stand that sells stuff like fruits and veggies. It's just down the street. It reminds me of the stands at the beginning of the Burn Notice opening sequence. 

This is my "street". I don't know if it's a real street but that's what I call it. 

This is my building

This the thing that you push if the door is locked so that they can buzz you in. 

This is the ground floor. 

These are the elevators. 

The inside of the elevator. Hi. 👋 <-that's the hand waving emoji if it turns into a rectangle. 

Those are the buttons. The ground floor is 0 the top floor is 9

This is my floor. It's kind of hard to see. There are four apartments. 

The brown one with the doormat is mine. 

I will try to take more pictures when I can. 

Today I had orientation at the AFS office. A lady and I sat and talked. It was nice. I took a long taxi ride there and an even longer bus ride back. (Traffic sucks). 

Mockingjay comes out in the US this week which means it'll come out in Egypt in like a week and a half or two weeks or so. But I'm still really excited for that. When I went to see the Maze Runner. The trailer for Mockingjay came out and I flipped. I was fangirling so hard almost in tears (not really) and it was great because my fiend didn't judge me, in fact, she joined me. That's a real friendship right there. 

I hope you all had/have a fabulous weekend. I'm still not used to this whole split weekend thing. It's killing me. I hate it. I think it causes a lot of unwanted exhaustion. But at least tomorrow's a short day. 

I love Sundays because I talk to my family. And my mom sends me pictures of my dogs. 

OH! And it rained today. Well not rained... Drizzled. Okay not drizzled... More like misted ... Slightly... For like five minutes. BUT STILL. 

I'm gonna go drink my tea now. Stay beautiful. 

Byeeeeee
