The year was 2029. Dubai, the city of extravagance, was known for its luxurious hotels, record-breaking skyscrapers, and artificial wonders. But beneath the glitz, a hidden crisis brewed – water scarcity.
Dubai's desert location made water a precious commodity, and desalination plants, the mainstay of water supply, were straining. Public anxieties grew as water restrictions tightened.
Then, a glimmer of hope emerged from an unlikely source – a young Emirati architect named Fatima. Fatima, known for her innovative designs, unveiled a revolutionary project at a global sustainability conference. It wasn't another desalination plant, but a network of "living buildings."
These bio-integrated structures were covered in specially engineered algae that thrived on wastewater and sunlight. The algae acted as a natural filtration system, purifying the wastewater while simultaneously producing clean water and biomass – a renewable energy source.
The world watched in awe as the first living building, a glistening green tower, rose in Dubai's heart. Skepticism soon turned to amazement as the building not only generated its own clean water but also excess energy for the surrounding neighborhood. The impact was immediate. Water restrictions eased, and Dubai's carbon footprint shrank.
Fatima's innovation sparked a global movement. Cities across the world began incorporating living architecture into their infrastructure. Dubai, once a symbol of excessive consumption, became a pioneer in sustainable development.
Fatima's story became an inspiration for a generation. A young Emirati woman, with a bold idea and unwavering determination, not only solved her city's water crisis but offered the world a path to a more sustainable future. Dubai, the city of extravagance, redefined its image, proving that progress and environmental responsibility could go hand in hand.
Do you think Fatima could do it?
Thank you

Imagine plotting your crazy husband’s death with your sister in a way where you make sure there’s a 50/50 chance he survives. You end up feeling so guilty and sad you hallucinate that he’s there to the point other people around you notice. Your sister finds a cult group that match her freak. You then fall for the cult’s sexy and crazy leader who dated your husband. You make the executive decision to break up with your dream husband. You think all is well but then your sister’s diary where she documents everything and we mean everything gets stolen by your boyfriend’s cult followers. Your boyfriend then lies to you, your sister and her girlfriend and has the three of you ambushed by his cult because guess what? They found your husband and he’s not too happy at what you and your sister did. But the cult, your boyfriend and your husband do not realize that you’re a lot crazier than you’ve let on.

Dubai in 2050. Real or Fake?
Dubai, the city of extravagant dreams built on desert sands, constantly pushes the boundaries of what's possible. As we approach 2050, imagining what this futuristic metropolis might hold is fascinating. Here's a glimpse into a potential Dubai of the future:
A Sustainable Oasis in the Desert:
Harnessing the Sun: Dubai's reliance on fossil fuels will be a distant memory. Vast solar farms blanketing the desert will generate clean energy, with cutting-edge technology making solar power even more efficient.
Vertical Greenery: Sustainable high-rises will be adorned with vertical farms, transforming buildings into self-sufficient ecosystems that produce fresh food and regulate temperature.
Eco-Friendly Transportation: Self-driving pods and electric hyperloops will whisk residents across the city at lightning speeds, leaving behind minimal environmental impact.
A Tech-Powered Metropolis:
Smart Homes and Cities: Homes will be seamlessly integrated with AI, anticipating your needs and optimizing energy consumption. Smart city infrastructure will manage traffic flow, optimize resource allocation, and personalize experiences for citizens.
Immersive Experiences: Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) will become commonplace, blurring the lines between the real and digital worlds. Imagine exploring historical landmarks or attending concerts virtually from the comfort of your home.
Innovation Hub: Dubai will solidify its position as a global innovation hub, attracting the brightest minds to develop cutting-edge solutions for sustainability, healthcare, and space exploration.
A Community Reaching for the Stars:
Space Tourism: Taking a weekend trip to space may become a reality, with Dubai potentially launching its space tourism ventures.
Underwater Wonders: Dubai's fascination with the ocean will continue, with the construction of underwater hotels and research facilities offering unparalleled aquatic experiences.
A Globalized Society: Dubai's multicultural population will continue to grow, fostering an environment of tolerance and collaboration.
Challenges and Considerations:
Climate Change Adaptation: Dubai will need to adapt to rising sea levels and extreme weather events due to climate change. Innovative coastal protection measures and resilient infrastructure will be crucial.
Social Inequality: The rapid pace of development needs to be accompanied by measures to ensure social equity and access to opportunities for all residents.
Dubai in 2050 promises to be a city unlike any other, a testament to human ingenuity and a beacon of hope for a sustainable future. While challenges remain, Dubai's relentless pursuit of innovation suggests it will continue to be a global leader in the decades to come.

So my first int'l teaching job came from a job fair in Iowa, of all places. The school I went with hadn't been among my list of choices, they reached out to me based on my profile, but it looked good. It also wasn't my only offer; a school in Honduras was interested in me as well, but the pay in the UAE was far better.
Did a bit of a graduation dinner yesterday with my parents, and my dad said he'd pay for me to go to that job fair again. Apparently he'd like to see me teaching again, especially abroad, and is willing to cover the flight and hotel to Iowa for it.
It's a surprisingly tempting offer. It's in February, so there isn't a list yet of which schools will show up, but I have been missing teaching, I just can't handle it here in the states anymore. And if I got multiple offers as a five-year teacher with no int'l experience, I'm confident I'd be able to get something if I went back.
It's a thought to consider. I'm going to go to job services to have my resume looked at this week and apply to more training specialist positions, but if nothing happens between now and February I might try going abroad as a teacher again, I guess.
