A Recap of 2 Months

Well, it has been over 2 months now, and there is so much to say that it seems pointless to try and say it all. Here are just some of the main events:

May 19th - Official last day. It was a long day full of tears. But, thanks to several friends that encouraged me to go out for a drink and movie after work, I kept my sanity through it all.

June 4th - Flew out for Amsterdam. It was a long flight and we were all glad when it was over.

June 8th - Ran into an old co-worker, International Richard, in Amsterdam, and packed up for our flight to Amman the next day.

June 9th - Arrived in Amman and saw my dad's entire family for the first time in 6 years. Saw my cousin Abdula for the first time ever.

June 24th - Arrived back in Texas, and was not ready to be back home.

June 25th - Family travels from Amman to Lebanon to visit relatives.

July 8th - Ant Bully Premiere. The movie turned out beautifully, and it was bitter sweet seeing everyone again. I tried not to get too bummed at goodbyes yet again.

July 12th - Starting to see lots of Ant Bully trailers on TV, hurray.

July 21st - Despite my computers worst obstacles, I finally finished my reel.

July 24th - Family safely returns to Amman despite hostilities, rejoice!

And now we are happily anticipating our 1 year anniversary on July 30th, which we will celebrate in San Antonio.
