Finally, a breather
It has been such a busy semester, I had the intention of adding to my blog every week, but school work has been very unkind to me. I ended up not having much to do since Arab GLBT other than researching about cancer and diabetes. Researching is not the difficult part, but actually learning the information from the primary source ( research article) and communicating/teaching it to other people in the group has been the challenge.
I thought I was in for an easy semester, full of researching and group work but hell I have been wrong. Inquiry as an educational method encompasses many processes and one of them emphasises knowledge communication within a group. This has been quite a challenge so far. But I am making improvements, my teaching methods were spot on the other day when I helped a member of the group understand some stuff about insulin receptor. The person I helped felt good and I had this weird sensation of satisfaction. I never thought teaching was that rewarding. Maybe that’s how you feel when you have truly learnt something. When you know your stuff, thoroughly understood it and can apply it, dissect it and explain it from A-Z.
We had a snow day yesterday, that means university was closed. I had a good day of shovelling, relaxing and relaxing. I needed the break after three busy weeks. I have a week off soon which is something I am really looking forward to. Skiing is one thing on my list of things to do; buying a car is a priority and hoping to get that done during that much-awaited break.
Oh by the way, happy valentine’s all. Hope you all had a good time. I spent it alone and without a special someone to send flower or chocolate to. It would have been nice to have that someone this time of the year. I am not utterly concerned but my friend told me that I need someone but I am in denial. Do I want to be in a relationship? Yes, I do, I won’t deny that and would never do. But do I need to be in a relationship? I don’t think so, I find myself relatively stable when it gets to emotions and probably not going to change in the near future. ‘ She will make you forget everything and leave your bubble of ‘ emotional stability ‘ ’ one friend told me once after hearing enough of my banter about how I am satisfied and how I currently classify as a ‘ not-looking single’. Did I say that but I am emotionally stable and don’t need someone in my life, at least for now.
Hopefully, I will get time to post some more stuff soon, the break will give me some spare time. Till then, enjoy the snow. :)

Hello,
I only just discovered that you have actually started writing in your blog. I've enjoyed all the posts I think they are well written.
Your school work sounds like it involves a lot of research. Good luck with this semester and enjoy your snow. We had one day of snow that didn't even make 2 inches deep :(
looking forward to the next posts.
teaching is the best way to learn, and the ability to communicate what you know is a real skill you can use everywhere. Pretty good stuff!
As for the chick question, this is the stage of your life where u can have fun with dating, but if you like ur freedom much, just enjoy your singlehood, you still young :)
take care for now :)
