Last 24

A few of the events from the last day of my life:

Registered for a German language certification test.
Found out about German school for Stella.
Registered for Chinese classes.
Got my first employee evaluation since joining the UN (I'm decently happy with it).
Ate a nasty tasting but decent looking hamburger (I was very hungry).
Regretted eating the hamburger, as I now feel rather sick.

I'm making an oblique refrence to a TV show I've never watched. Back with the series 24 first came to Germany, the opening scenes claimed it was a depiction of "...the last 24 hours of my life...". I was rather surprised when the show kept going after the first season (didn't watch BTW).

One of my colleagues said it was actually a play on words and that by last, they meant the most recent. So, I figured I could abuse the phrase as well.

This is proof that I am easily manipulated by popular culture on television.

"24" is one of the most popular shows on TV right now in America. I've never watched it either. I think it's won a couple Emmys.

german school is nice, especially if you live around jounieh.
If you live around beirut IMO Lycee Francais is great because it is a very cosmopolitan school
If you live around hamra/AUB the International College is great. IC students have a very hight level in BOTH english and frensh which is amazing.

I gues Mr. B didn't go to IC then. I hear the German school sucks, not only in German but English as well.

Okay, your last post was four days ago saying you ate something that tasted nasty and then felt sick. Please post again soon. Hugs.
