Whatever you are, be a good one!

Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be. This is the interrelated structure of reality.

So, here I am again... my Arabic Exam was today early in the morning and in anticipation, all of us were there much earlier than usual. 
The exam went well and then we just stood around for a while exchanging emails and contact info. Our teacher told us that due to diversity in nationalities and the fact that all of us had not taken the beginner's course in Arabic, none of the other teachers in the Center had wanted to take our class and she had taken it as a challenge and she was very pleased with our progress.
Interestingly, our class is a lovely mixture of Asian, European and American students and we did learn a lot from each other while we were struggling with Arabic. Our teacher called us a bunch of boys with one lady [NOTE: Although we were all married women, we did differ from the rest of the classes as instead of sitting around meekly, we did laugh out loud, had our own private jokes and tricks and loved to learn the Egyptian Arabic anecdotes from our teacher]. It was only when our class took a few sessions with another class there, that our teacher noticed the glaring difference. 
One of us is leaving ... she will be moving to Oman, and she wanted to know if there is some center like this there where she can continue learning Arabic, so if you know of such a place do share. 
كل أمر جيد أن ينتهي بشكل جيد.
