i have moved into my apartment and its just what i need, a bed and a bathroom with a shower in it. The little snag is that the room doesnt have any internet in it so i dont think i'll be updating this blog as much as i wanted to. Hopefully i can find an internet source at my job where i can update on a break or something but for now dont expect a lot of updates :'(
other than that i have been spending a lot of quality time with myself and reading. So perhaps God is trying to tell me to stop putting so much distractions in my life and to try and do some soul searching or whatever...
anyway my room isnt amazing but also it isnt a complete dump so i'm not complaining. Actually i had a miniature adventure today. So i was trying to go out to lunch with my cousin Hala but i had to leave my room first, right? that sounds simple enough leave the room, however what soon occurred was an incident that took 45 minutes to fix. When i went to open the door it was stuck on lock and my key wouldnt turn inside of it. So i called the people downstairs and they came and then tried just about every key they had and none of them opened it, and each time they would try and give me one of the keys from under the door to see if it would work on my side; they didnt. So then they tried kicking the door down and that didnt work, then they had to eventually take the hinges off the door, to be honest though i would have tried doing that before trying to break the door...but thats just me. Anyway the door was finally opened and they apologized and were real nice about it and told me they would replace it by the time i get back. I am at my cousin's now which is how i am using the internet. The experience was annoying in that i had to wait so long that i told my cousins to go eat lunch without me but i was able to get a story out of it so over all its been a good day.
I also went into the office yesterday before moving in and i got to meet the people there. To be honest i dont remember everyone's name but they were all very nice and welcoming. I had a desk and a chair and a computer and its air conditioned. They gave me a lot of papers to read and i asked for extra reading because i want to do my job right so I may not have the internet but i have hours of reading to do and a place to do it so i am very happy and content :D.
Till next time my friends i hope to post soon enough and i'll see if i can get some pictures of my place.
I hope Joe got to read this

andrew, why are you in egypt for a year?
Hi Andrew,
Sorry for the door being stubborn, same time it gave you some interesting story and shows you that some times the easiest and simple steps in our day it may turn to a hazel, But only by God’s grace we go through the day. So it’s a good experience to say God allow it and He prepared the people to help you. He gives the way of escape.
God bless you Andrew and guide you in each step. I am so proud of you and glad that Jesus teaching you to spend more time with HIM and reading.
I thought about you, not having the internet available in your room, but you may consider type your update and your stories on WORD, save them as files. When you find the Internet available just open your files and PAST them into your side Blog.
Have a great time, I miss you and I Love you.
