Middle East and North Africa	Thursday	Afternoon everyone and happy Earth Day! Overcast and cool today!! Just might have some sprinkles! Amal, when Wael applied for his FAFSA it took a couple days for a response. Will tell you if you are eligible but won't say for how much. It is up to the college to determine how much you are eligible for. Good luck! Hope everyone is having a good day. Wael has his last Calculus exam today!!! I would be nuts if I had to take it. Take care all!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-04-22 15:32:00
Middle East and North Africa	Friday	Good morning everyone. Congrats on the financial aid, the new classes, and the shopping! Jeanne, enjoy the rain. It's been cooler up here but we haven't gotten wet yet...at least not in my area. Sara enjoy the park! I wish I could but I'm home sick again. Oh why do parents send their kids to school sick? Then they're coughing, sneezing, turning in papers with germs and then I get sick. Hopefully this will clear up soon...it's my second day home but this has been hanging on all week. Ok, I'm off to get some medicine and then some rest. Everyone have a great day! Vanessa, the rain is a big ole teaser here!! But love the clouds and dreary weather! Hope you feel better today. Wael is always loaded down with sanitizer, wipes and anything else we can find to keep him healthy. He's been so lucky since he's been here 2 1/2 yrs without getting ill. It's bad when Lysol is your BFF! Enjoy your weekend!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-04-23 11:59:00
Middle East and North Africa	Friday	Morning everyone and a very happy Friday! Amal, happy you heard from FAFSA!! When you register financial aid will let you know what you will receive. It's broken down for each semester, not all at once. Wish Wael would have been qualified for pell grants, but am so happy what he did get! Good luck sweetie! Aya, happy you will also be taking some courses! Meet with an advisor and they will tell you what your course of action will be. Be sure to have your transcripts and your course studies. Good luck to you and John!! Don't know if you guys know it or not, but if you are in an Honor Society you receive many discounts on everything from auto insurance, etc. Wael is a member of an International Honor Society. It really pays to maintain a high gpa! Have a great weekend everyone! Think it might rain again today!!! yipppeeeee	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-04-23 10:31:00
Middle East and North Africa	Sweet Saturday!	Good morning and happy Saturday! I admit I am "slightly" addicted to Farmville. It's a game I love to hate! You can also throw in Cafe and my ever so wonderful fish in Happy Aquarium. Unfortunately, I keep running back to see how the "strawberries" are! Hope your weekend is being good to you and your "strawberries" are in full bloom!! Have a great Saturday everyone.	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-04-24 10:08:00
Middle East and North Africa	Sunday	Thanks for the kind words I have to get the associates before I can do a bachelors.......??? right??? At least that's the way I thot it went. My plan was to get a phd in the subject eventually but I thot I had to follow the degrees up.. assoc, bachelors, masters, phd. If I'm wrong..PLEASE let me know NOW I play: Farmville Petville Restaurant City and if I get bored, I'll add" Mafia Wars Happy Habitat Pet Society Treasure Isle Social City Family Feud Country Life Kingdoms of Camelot and if I get REALLY bored, I'll add: Yoville My Town Super City Mahjong Farm Town Happy Pets Cafe World SPP Ranch SPP! My Farm and I'm sure there are more that I can't remember at the moment! I can LITERALLY spend the whole day on the computer and not think twice about it. It's bad! I hope everybody has a great day! Add me as a neighbor in any games you play LOL amal Yep you got it right Amal! If you might want to pursue a BS then make sure your Associates course study is for your continuing education at the University level. Many Universities now have a Master's/Phd program combined. Just check out your universities and see what they offer!! Really proud of you sweetie....best of luck!!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-04-25 12:37:00

Middle East and North Africa	Friday in MENA land	Happy friday everyone things are good here, gonna clean the house and do some cooking today. on Tuesday afternoon my son texted me on his way home from school and said he and his friends had found a starving dog under a bush. at first they thought it was dead but turns out he was just too weak to do anything but lift his head. my son picked him up and carried him home and frankly I cried whenI saw him. anyway, long story short, he's a boxer and has been fixed - VERY sweet. I've registered him with the pound as found, scoured craigslist for a missing boxer, and had him scanned for a microchip at the vet. in the meantime we are feeding him round the clock, soaking his infected feet in epsom salt 3 times a day ( you can see his toes in that first pic), and last night had to pull a bunch of embedded foxtails(thorns) out of his jowls and gums where they were festering. poor guy. I think we might have a new dog Ohh Sara you are just a lifesaver!! He looks soooo sweet. Bless you for taking care of him. Yes, you have found a friend for life!!!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-14 11:58:00
Middle East and North Africa	Friday in MENA land	Good morning everyone! Beautiful out this morning. Will be warm but HOT is around the corner! Ughhhhhhh Jenn, he is just a little doll! Can't believe how much he has grown! Amal, happy to see you posting again. Best of luck with your new job!! Sorry your commute is so long....just be careful! Charles, so good to see you back again! How's your little guy doing? Wael has 2 more finals. Excitement comes when it's time to sell the books!! We love excitement! Have a great Friday everyone!!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-14 09:33:00
Middle East and North Africa	Hey Its Saturday!	Morning everyone! Temps are back up. Back to bakin'!! Tammy, our prayers are with you and Adam. Wishing him the best on his job interview!! Amal, see a doctor as soon as you can. Don't take any chances sweetie. Wael is studying for ONE more final and finishing up his last research project. He's kinda in a fog!! He had another e-mail from Columbia!! He wanted to stay here to finish his last year, but this email sparked a REAL interest for him. I think he will apply and see what happens. Columbia has 6 different Economic programs and one was tailored perfectly for what he wants. We talked about the opportunities of having the best networking right at your front door (NYC). He is just in awe of what doors have opened. Bless his heart, he has worked so hard to maintain his honors and now he sees they love him!! Hope everyone has a great Saturday and a good weekend!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-15 09:14:00
Middle East and North Africa	Sunday	Morning everyone! Going to be hot here but lucky to have low humidity. Makes it liveable. I'm so not looking forward to the high power bill again, but, it's either roast or be comfortable. We keep the A/C at 78, run the ceiling fan and it stays very nice. Nights have been cool which is awesome!! Can at least open the windows. Have to pick up a few veggies today, so that's about the highlight of my day!! Love shopping in this particular store as they have coffee! Get my coffee and i'm ready for anything! Enjoy the day and take care!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-16 09:32:00

Charles, thanks for the DVD list! Have a wonderful day everyone.	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-18 09:03:00
Middle East and North Africa	T.G.I.FRIDAY!	Good morning! Today we will have our FIRST 100 degree this year!!!!! It's already 80 at 8:30. Summer is here. Wael is a happy camper now. Classes are finally over. He's looking forward to his final year. Will be his toughest one, but the man can do it!!! He has decided to complete his degree here. He's already getting together his plans for applying to the top 10 Universities for his post-graduate degree. I can't even think past this morning!!! I love a man with a mission!!! I think i'm living in the Twilight Zone here. Around 3 weeks ago I received a citation in the mail from the Tucson City Court. I read it and it was a "courtesy letter" (or so they call it) to inform me of a parking ticket 3/23/2010. Had my name, but the license plate wasn't mine. Of course this is on a Saturday, so had to call the court Monday morning. Finally spoke with a clerk and explained that I was not at that location nor was that my tag. I also told her that I did not receive a copy of the original ticket that was written as I wanted to see what type of make and model vehicle it was. She just asked me if I owned a Ford Ranger which I do not. So she stated "just write a letter to the court explaining that is not your vehicle." Yeah right. I wrote the letter, gave the court my registration and license plate number for MY vehicle. Received a notice from the court that my request for not having to pay this fine was DENIED! Called again and she told me I have to have MORE proof, so off I go to DMV. Had my citation and my denial and asked them what the heck do I do now as i'm NOT gonna pay a fine that isn't mine. She brought up on the computer my car, model and make with this tag. I nearly died and tried not to hyperventilate. I kept thinking how in the world does this tag go with my car. A supervisor came to speak with me (ever feel like a criminal), and I kept assuring him that it wasn't my tag and I don't own a Ford Ranger. He went into my registration and asked me if I had ever registered my car here in Arizona before 2008. I told him yes when I lived here for a few short months, but that was 4 yrs ago. I actually had forgotten about it. Was there at DMV for 2 hrs and we finally came up with what they think happened. Whomever wrote out the citation transposed the numbers....the supervisor kept putting in different numbers that was close to mine and sure enough there was the Ford Ranger. They gave me a paper to take to the court stating that tag hasn't been used in 3 yrs as I had left Arizona and lived in Nevada therefore registering my car there. Well one would think that would be proof. NO WAY! Went to the court yesterday and they said I have to have a hearing before the judge as the "citation" was in MY NAME and the judge is the one who can clear it. Never had anything like this happen. Have all my proof, (even found my old tag) and still wasn't enough. I just can't wait to go to court! Sure hope everyone has a wonderful, stress free, no citation day!!!!

Middle East and North Africa	Tuesday!	Tammy, have you considered contacting a teaching hospital? It's usually associated with a University and perhaps someone there could direct you to other sources or possibly have what you need for a fraction of the cost. Just a thought. I hope someone can help!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-25 21:52:00
Middle East and North Africa	Tuesday!	Woke up with a swollen arm and cramps this morning from yesterday's shot. I have to do the lanudry, the dishes, do some cleaning...ughhh!! Tamara, hope Adam's doc appointment goes well! Let us know how it went when you know. Have a good day everyone! Aya Aya, hope your arm feels better. How many immunizations did you receive?	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-25 15:21:00
Middle East and North Africa	Tuesday!	Morning! Sure has been beautiful here. Somethings wrong!!! Temps have been in the 80's. Hard to believe the A/C hasn't been on in 3 days! Lovin' it! Have to mail a package for Wael's parents this morning. Love to send them "goodies". Tammy, hoping everything will be alright with his tests. Best of luck! Talked with my twin in Nevada...they are still having snow! Aisha, have a wonderful time in Sharm! Wish we could go back, but just can't with his schedule. I need to get my fix seeing the pyramids and museum again. I could live in the Cairo museum! Always think of the movie "Night at the Museum", and how exciting it would be to go back thousands of years! Fantastic! Have a good day everyone!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-25 09:59:00
Middle East and North Africa	is this the right way to do it? - Egypt	Hi guys, i wanted to ask you if what i think is close to the real thing. - I am traveling to Egypt in September to get married. - When i return to the US i will file a CR1 petition for my wife so i can bring her to the US. - Once approved and case transferred to the Embassy in Cairo, she will receive a package in the mail requesting documents. - She will send those documents via mail and wait for the embassy to set an interview. My Questions are: 1- Is what i mentioned above correct? 2- Is a CR1 the fastest way i can bring her to the US? 3- Is it true that it can take from 6 to 9 month before she receives the visa on her passport? 4- Do i have to be there for her interview? 5- Will she have to pay for any more fees in Egypt? Thank you So much for your help Perhaps it would be better if your fiancee contacts the embassy in Cairo and they can give her exactly what you would need to do. I do believe, and I may be wrong, but i'm assuming you are a dual citizen now, that you would be able to marry without going thru the embassy for the free to marry affidavit. Still it would be to your best interest to have all the right information before your marriage. Best of luck and congratulations!!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-25 22:45:00

Middle East and North Africa	Friday... Nor a Good start	Good morning! Happy Friday everyone! Sorry Batta he missed his flight. Know it's an extra cost, but have fun if only for 1 day! Know what you mean about "time"! I used to tell Wael there was the "real" time and then "Egyptian time"! He learned very early about "time" after he arrived here. When someone said "10:00 it didn't mean hmmmm whenever you can come. Was funny but ohhhh they learn! Now he is early for everything. Hope everyone has a great Memorial Day weekend. Have fun and stay safe!	JeanneVictoria	Female	Egypt	2010-05-28 08:39:00
