Jessica The American!
Today we as a class skyped with Mr.Joe’s future sister in law, Jessica. Jessica lives in Greensboro N.C. We asked Jessica a lot of questions involving her trip to Egypt and Saif her fiance that we skyped with earlier in the year. I have realized that Jessica and Saif have a lot in common. They both give off a vibe like they don't care who you are they can talk to you without judging. I was happy to know they don't mind each other having different beliefs which I think is really cool. Jessica is currently waiting for Saif to be able to move here to America, but relocating takes a lot of time and patience. Saif is also currently trying to acquire a visa to be able to live in America with Jessica. Jessica and Saif both seem like very nice people and I think they will both live fun and loving lives. Good luck to the both of them.

Skyping with Jessica (a Christian) about Marrying a Muslim - RM
Skype with Jessica
Meeting Jessica was pretty cool. I thought it was interesting that her and Saif didn’t care that they had different religions and believed in different things. And that they were going to let their kids chose what they want, and they were just open to everything. It was cool to hear about how it would be to be an American going to a place like that, and the different things she experienced while she was there. And to hear about her struggles in Egypt, like the language barrier. And about some of the stuff she saw and did there. I think it would be really cool to get to visit a place like Tunisia or Egypt, and I liked learning about it from someone who has experienced it.

Talking with Jessica was a fun experience for me. I didn't really learn any thing I didn't know. I had a billion questions to ask but I didn't get to ask them. Yes I am stalling I am sorry but I cant write any more.

We had another web chat but with Saif's wife Jessica. She told us about Tunisia and Egypt and Israel. She told us about the differences between our countries and theirs. There wasn’t that big of a difference except that women have a lot less freedom than in the U.S. The religions are also different but its not that there aren't Christians, they just have different types of Christians mixed in with Muslims. There isn't fights between the two, they were just both there. She also told us how she got ripped off with her horseback ride. She also told us that its probably going to take a year for Saif to get to the U.S.

I had a good time saying what I had to say even though I could only ask three questions. I had about ten questions written down. But Mr.Joe wouldn’t let me say all of them. I thought other peoples questions were better then mine in many ways. I think Becky’s was the best because she always has good questions. I liked talking to her and I think we should do it again some time. I sort of embarrassed my self by messing up and asking the wrong questions. It made me look really stupid, but I’m cool with that because she didn’t seem to care. Which I liked which also meant that I had proof that she was nice. That’s all I have to say about that.

Meeting Jessica
Today we met Jessica, Mr. Joe’s future sister in law and Saif’s wife. She and Saif turned out to have a lot in common. It was very interesting to find out that they could compromise between their religions. She said it would be a lot easier once Saif gets here. First he would have to get a visa. If he couldn’t get here she said she would move to Tunisia to live with Saif. It would be harder but she said she could manage. Saif would have to teach her how to speak french so she would have a common language she could speak to the Tunisians. She was talking to us from Greensboro, North Carolina through Skype. She was really funny and nice to be around, just like Saif. Personally she made an awesome first impression and I would love to meet her in real life along with Saif. Some day, maybe.
