The Writing’s on the Wall
Well, kind of.
I purchased a large transparent poster-sticker from a stationary store near our house (end of Makram Ubaid) on the right. For 4.50 LE! After sticking it on my bedroom wall, I now use regular dry-erase markers to write on it. I highly recommend this because it has helped me tremendously while studying and it’s fun to use.
Note: If you can’t find the jumbo transparent sticker that I have, then there’s another option: plastic wrap taped to the wall. After all, “this is Africa.” Be creative. I let so much time go on.. just missing my white-board… it took my creativity 9 months to kick in so don’t let the same happen to you! I’ve been told you can use your fridge door as a white-board too. Before you do make sure you test it out on a small area first because believe me, you don’t want to feel the wrath of an Egyptian Landlord!
You can also use white-board markers on mirrors, windows, and filing cabinets, I’m thinking I can use the top of my Macbook too! On Lifehack.org there’s a list of 10+ Things to Do with Dry-Erase Markers
