Work, work, work, and then some work!

I've been in Riyadh for about 9 months now, and all I've done here is WORK the whole time. I go to work at 7:30 - 2:00, then I get back there AGAIN at 5:00 - 9:00.

I am really sick of working all the time, and I only have one day as a weekend. It's not that I hate work but the city I'm living in is so damn boring! I mean after working alot a person needs to relax and do something different. But (walhamdollelah) here in Riyadh you can do nothing. I'm sick of resturants and malls, since they are the only kinds of places you can go to here! If it wasn't for my wife, who by the way works the same number of hours as I do, I would have gone insane here!!!

I just miss Amman and everything about it. I miss going out to whatever place and always seeing people around you in the street. My wife is akways asking me: why Riyadh seems to be empty? And I'm always telling here it's because you can't see anybody out in the street. Yes, Everybody who goes any place here uses a car. You can almost never see somebody walking down the street. So I think by now you've figured out that I'm about 10Kg more that I used to be!

I can't wait to be in Amman again (and that should be soon, yeeeeaaaaaaaa!), I wanna see down town, hashmi shamali, Jofeh, abdoun, marjalhamam, mekka Str., the seven circles one by one, jabal amman, alweebdeh, and most importantly the place I miss more than anywhere else Alwehdat camp and my dearest, dearst club there!

Oh God, how much I miss wondering in the streets of Alwehdat camp, how I miss having the best times ever with my friends in (sook elkhothra) there, how I miss the long hours depating and arguing within the walls of the club. I just can't wait to be there again with the best friends a man can ever have.
