There’s a puppy in my garden

Early in the morning I heard a puppy whining, so I assumed that one of the neighbors had just gotten a puppy. It wasn’t until the evening that I realized the puppy was actually in my backyard! I didn’t know what to do so I asked the neighbor’s kids for advice, and they tried to convince me to keep it. I talked to a friend and she told me to feed it until she found someone who would take it. Nobody seemed to want it, so I just kept feeding it. Luckily, two weeks later when my roommate came back from her vacation, she found a very good home for him!

My friend’s wedding

My second language teacher, Aroua, got married this summer! These are the pictures from the Henna night. In this part of Tunisia, on the Henna night the bride-to-be comes out wearing two to three traditional outfits, turns around in circles while the music plays, and then comes out with the groom-to-be while wearing a very fancy dress.
