Steppin' Out Again

Last week our PF (peer facilitator) took us out. I can't remember if I've described PF's before, so here it goes again: in the afternoon we divide up into small groups of about 4 people with 1 student from the university. They're our PF and we go over grammar, vocabulary, homework, or just talk. Basically, whatever we feel like we need to be doing. My PF is a girl from Muscat named Kawthar, and she's working on a degree in English translation. [It was the female PFs who put on the hafla for us.] Well the 3 girls in Kawthar's 2 groups all got together and went out one night last week. Kawthar's friend Ruba went with us (she has the car ;). We went to a place called Cafe Italiano in the Istiqrar Hypermarket. Let me tell you, this cafe has the best mango juice ever! We all love aseer mango (mango juice) tremendously. In fact, when we were thinking up class names, our class wanted to be called Aseer Mango [our teacher didn't like that though, she said mango juice gives you gas]. Anyway, their mango juice is thick and creamy like a mango milkshake, and full of tiny mango pieces – like they actually blended an entire mango just for you. Mumtaz!!!!
