I'm really grateful that I had the chance to give help during my life. With my teachers and friends, we worked hard for many days to give the students of Dar Al Hanan a library which is a bridge that allows them to approach the other side of the world..
As teachers, we believe that today's readers are tomorrow's leaders and our job is to enhance their love for reading and encourage them to always keep a book by their side because a book is the best company one could ever have; and that's something that I truly believe in, and I always try to implement it within my students.
The first thing we did was that we started to put what we decided on into practice where we designed, with the help of our instructors, the library: We chose the colors, the desks and the lightning as well. We spent many days classifying and arranging the books that we collected according to the subject and the level. We felt really tired but we really enjoyed it.
We also had the chance during these hours we spent together, to get to know the people there who were amazing and treated us as a part of Dar Al Hanan's family. Even the principal, Ms. Ehsan, acted as if she was one of us and helped us in everything we did. She was really helpful.
After few weeks, we had the opening, and we displayed a video, prepared by one of our friends, that summarized all our work and the joy we had. We finally had "Joumana's Library"... We couldn't find anyone better than Joumana to dedicate this library to. She loved reading more than anything else and always tried to implement such love and passion in her students.
Even though she left us but she is never forgotten, she is always here with us and the library was added to many things that always remind us of her.
People always ask me: "How can you drink coffee everyday? Why do you even do that?" and I can't but say:"She the best friend you could ever have. Whenever you try it you become unable to live without it...." and I always see the same reaction: Laughing.
