AHLAAN YAA YEMEN!!!!
So the president of al-kuleeyah al-yemeneya lidirasaat as-sharq al-owset (Yemen College of Middle Eastern Studies) came to my Arabic class today and told us about a 5 week intensive Arabic program in Sana'a. While I would not be able to afford to go this summer, after I get my full-time job, insha'allah, I can go next summer, in 08. I talked with Brandon, expecting him to kinda be against it, since it will be around a 3500 trip, but he told me to jump on it!
By that time hopefully the college itself will be open (the language center has been around for 18 years, the college facilities will be brand new) and I can investigate archaeology. I'd rather go over for archaeology for 5 weeks, with Arabic on the side, but I'd totally do an intensive program. By that time I'll have been out of Arabic for awhile (though I hope to be able to sit in next year, but it all depends on my job...it would only be an hour or so three times a week).
So, if I get into the program...I'M GOING TO YEMEN!!!!
So excited. So excited.
