"Les Miserable"

"Les Miserable" has been always my favorite novel.. no other novel could amaze me by the way reality and imagination melt togather like "Les Miserable"..

I learned from that splendor: the prestige of misery .. And that giving, no matter how humble it is, has fruit and shades ..

On 27/6/2012 I attended a theater performance that told the legend of "Les Miserables" professionally .. Londoners added to the "Les Miserable" tunes and rhythms .. Now, "Les Miserables" is the title of the most prestigious show I have ever attended. One that my imagination can not go beyond ..


Thank you Victor Hugo!

"The needs of speakers drive language change"

I wonder how much would my own language, Arabic, change throughout the100 years coming..
Why do many Arabs nowadays use English letters to write Arabic words?
100 years from now, would we find books written in Arabic without having Arabic letters?!
(( just thinking))

Bettersea Park

Yesterday, 8 students and I planned for a trip to a zoo. The zoo we visited is in Bettersea Park in the heart of south London. Although it is originally a children zoo, we had there a great fun! We had the chance to take a close look at different animals in a very nice setting. The park, of course, has many other sections beside the zoo. While some students chose to enjoy the green fascinating places, some students went boating in a lake there.

All in all, everyone had a real fun at the park. The students were very responsible, mature, and independent. They looked after each other, and they helped a lot in transportation, as we had to take two buses and a train to reach the destination.
