Weekend
OK, it definitely isn’t the weekend, but I haven’t had enough time to post about it until now.
Monday was Labor Day here in the States, and provided me with a much-needed 3-day weekend, after my first week of university. After a strategic “family emergency”, I managed to get the latter part of the weekend off from work, and zipped up to Dearborn, MI – a city with (I believe) the highest concentration of Arabs.
Being of Lebanese descent, it was a very refreshing reminder of my home country. The streets are painfully cramped, lively, and loud; the food was bold and delicious, and the parties were amazing.
Unfortunately, it seems that the most exciting events go uncaptured (as I forgot my camera), but a friend of mine managed to grab a few pictures
My boss wasn’t terribly happy when I returned, because I forgot to mention how long I was going to be out, but she’ll get over it.
