Why did backstreet get banned? Was it to do with his posts in the mikel thread?

Backstreet banned? That's harsh!

I would like to point out that Thor had no part in this banning. I don't ban people without organising a fucking big public announcement

Enjoy your visit. your going to go see relatives?

Thanks. No we own a small house of our own in the village where my Dad is originally from. I do have relatives there but we sleep in our own house.

come back safely, Nour and yes, the place isn't the same without you hope you had a great time n the village

Thanks, Barbara. I just came back home. I had a good time, at least on Saturday before the battles started.

I went to a restaurant owned by some Lebanese family here the other day and it reminded me of you. Actually, now that I came to think about it I met some of them just today at the mall, they're my mom's friends You should come to Brazil someday.

I expect there are quite a few Lebanese restaurants in Brasil?

Thanks mate, maybe someday I will. I'll make sure to ring you up if I ever do

Been really busy these last couple of days.

But I got some great news last week -- I got accepted into this internship programme at one of the insurance companies here. The internship itself isn't that great but I'm just thankful to be accepted! Summer internships usually have an application deadline of November or December and at that time last year, I wasn't even thinking about what I'd want to be doing/should be doing this summer so I missed all of the deadlines! Hence I was just planning on getting a regular administrative desk job for 4-5 months. But I saw this online ad for current undergrad students to participate in a finance internship so I applied and got it the next day!

I start on Thursday! Hoping it goes well!

Congrats sweetie. Best of luck

Well, I had a test earlier today, and one question had that sentence and I had to choose between: should - have to - must - ought to

I went with 'should' (I thought it made more sense) but the teacher insisted that it was wrong and the correct answer was 'have to'. I'm pissed because if I had that one "right" I would have had a perfect score.

Neither is grammatically incorrect. You can use all four of them in that sentence and it won't be "wrong".

Logically, your teacher has a point that when someone 'superior' to someone else speaks to him/her (like a teacher addressing her students), "Have to" is used most often to convey a necessity. However, considering the sentence in this case, I'm not sure "Have to" is the best answer since you can't logically force someone to think. So the sentence here, even though it is from a teacher to students, is more of an advice than a command. So "Should" sounds most fitting, imo.

Will do Ma'am. Save some of the grape leaves for me, I have't had any in ages! (My mom can't make them anymore )

Well I'm sure whatever my mom does can't compare to the original thing in Lebanon so I could take you out to an Arabic restaurant instead or just cook my fave Brazilian/Italian dishes to you instead, what do you think?

yeah, I remember reading where you put your hands after touching them the other day. It was a funny picture in my mind

You're invited too. I don't have any fake modesty. I'm a great cook - I can't clean for my life, but I can cook very well.
