Been awhile since I've written. I've been away at the Model Arab League for a class that I'm in. One of the things I love about that MAL is that it makes you step outside of the bubble that we as Americans live in and see things outside of that perspective. It's good for me to realize that there are a lot of countries out there that don't see the USA as a pioneer of freedom but as a big bully who won't leave anyone else alone. I think that this realization is especially important in our current situation.
