busy.

School has been crazy here.
We have finals in a week, which means a bunch of my classes will be over and I'll have more time to blog.
In the meantime, read my bestie Tessa's blog. She's hilarious and sometimes features pictures of yours truely.

schwarma

Eating schwarma in a cave in the Old City. Cool atmosphere. Not the best one I've had here however.
I hope there's a schwarma place in Salt Lake. I'm addicted to it and will have a hard time living without it when I leave.

Sinai.

We hiked Mt. Sinai in the dark to be on the top at sunrise. Totally worth it.
ps Tessa-this pic is for you.

Thinking about life and stuff.

Egypt.

Me and Tessa at Hatshepsut's temple.
Muhammad Ali Mosque. My personal fave of Cairo. Totally beautitful inside, great view outside. Win win.

Night train from Luxor to Cairo with my roommate Alison. It was pretty good, minus the steward knocking on our door at 4 AM until I opened it. No joke, he knocked for 15 minutes straight.
Tom's and Sphinx go together great.

 Being Ramses in Memphis

Matching hates with Talia at the step pyramid. Our teachers made us wear them since it was so so hot.
Me and the Pyramids. No big.

Cardo. Yo.

At the Cardo under the Old City, Jewish Quarter.
Tessa, me, Steph, and Matt.

Garden Tomb.

Me and my roommate Tarah at the Garden Tomb.
Kind of blurry. Don't worry about it.

wishing.

I dropped a Canadian dime into a well in the West Bank for good luck.
I hope it works.

Glam.

At my fave pottery store in the Old City.

churches.

I went to the Church of the Ascension, which is pretty much next door to where I live in Jerusalem.
This is me and my girl Ann.
