Hello every1? I can't believe i see Texas ppl r talking in here.Anyways the first thing i thought about was when i saw this page wow! I can't beleive i bet they 'll be some interesting stuff. I live in Arlington and i don't usually see somalian ppl sometimes 4 an month i don't see ppl.Besides those one live with me may be not even them. Well all i want say is we should make this place a better place. It's really boring u don't even get to see ur own somalian follows especialy is good 4 the young ppl who were born in this country. If we atleast make a program 4them so they can meet once a week. It would even be better if we try to teach them their language. Please anybody who have agree with me or have any better idea. Let me hear ur opinion.

1luv to all of ya ur sis from Arliington

well sis I guess my fellow texas brother have told you a little bit about the Lone star state. So let me tell about the other things--Well like he said The houses are affordable unlike MN where a 2 bedroom apartment is almost $800 and the apartment is not worth it. Well for that kind of money you can live in a luxury apartments and also don't forget you get to use the pools because of our beautiful weather 4 months a years or may be more..
About the jobs if you are educated especially if you have a degree in the technology sectors as you have already heard Dallas is one of the only cities that's growing in that field. I f you are not a qualified person well there are many other jobs, but I have advice to give you wich is in Dallas you need to have a car to enjoy all of it's previleges as the transportation isn't as big as MN's transportation system but we're getting there in the next couple of years there are many route extensions that are being talked about now.
I guess that is all for today so plz feel free to ask more questions and I hope I gave you clear information.

Hi sis!

I'm glad that u understood all the information that I gave you. So let me answer you questions, I haven't been here that long and I'm originally from Another country I don't mean I was born there but before I came here I've lived there for a long time. Well about fun things this could be our only problem that not many somalians move here I mean we don't have many parties or weddings like the other states but you can always go out with a loved one or a friend and site see dallas's night live which is fantastic so I would advise you to come here and stay for a week and decide for yourself, And looking for me won't be that hard and we will be pleased to assist you in anyway.
Well like you already said tehre are alot of brothers here the only thing that's missing here is our beautiful sisters but there's also very nice girls so you won't be the first one..
well till next time peace...
