The Memories, or Part 3 of my Final Post


I really want to remember my address (FB 1-9) and my phone number (+974 783 7494), so I'll put them here for posterity.

But beyond that, here are a few of my favorite memories:



My best New Year's ever, in Istanbul.


The first night I hung out with the people that would become my closest friends. Also one of the first times I had karak. Also, the day that I got my nickname, Corniche.

My walk with some of the other exchange students along the Corniche
, and how uncomfortable we were bargaining. Not any more, my friend! Best price?



Constantly going to Bandar and getting karak. Or going out and getting shawarma.

My roadtrip around Qatar
.



Going to Maya's for the first time. (Also the day that Hillary Clinton came to CMU-Q!)

Those are the memories that stick out, but even as I was going through the posts and trying to find the links, I saw other days that I loved and am so glad I blogged about so I can remember them.

Because, while I love all of you, my dear readers... this blog was for me. I learned to say "yes!" to activities when I thought I didn't have enough time, just to get some fodder for this blog. I analysed and reflected more on my experiences when I went to write about them. Yes, this blog will be a time capsule of my time in and around Qatar.

I have become slightly addicted to blogging, and, while I doubt it will be daily, I'll start another one. Here is your link to continue checking me out: corinnewalters.blogspot.com.
