..I am nodding off at work.

I have about an hour left before I get to head to my arabic class, and so I am going to try and kill atleast half of it writing this...riveting...piece. Did I even mention I was taking arabic class? No? Well, I am taking arabic class for the month of July..intensive accelerated arabic, 5 days a week 2 hours a day..Woo! Hopefully by the end of it I will be talking like a native (english-speaker-who-learned-arabic-in-a-month :D) !
In other very exciting news, my uncle and cousin are flying down to visit for a week and we get to take a mini vacation, skip work and be very very bad :D The weather is awful, the electricity troublesome but hey! We get to shop and wander aimlessly and eat out and binge on mangoes and talk all night :D Inshallah!!
I have also planned out different things to bake and indulge in..for ideas google Frost Confections and Cupcake Couture! If I had a store this is what it would be like :) Yummmmm!
