Going.. going... gone!

In a coupla hours that is:)

Our awesome school gives us the last 10 days of Ramadan as a holiday (in addition to the eid break- aren't they sweet?), so I'm off to Boston for a long-awaited "sisterly reunion"!
sweeeet:D

I must admit though I'm dreading the actual travelling- 24 hours of travel! In includes a 10-hour stopover. Arghhhh...
Though my bro says Amsterdam airport is great, all I have to do is walk around the duty free shop and the 10 hours will fly! Let's hope that's true.

Today at school, the kids had a traditional "Girgai'an" festival! I must blog about that, it's really something! Maybe once I arrive, hopefully.

I know it's barely been a month since school started, and to many it may seem like it's way too early to be having a holiday- but trust me it isn't!!

The first month has been anything but easy, and I feel so drained. Desperately need to recharge! And what better way to do that than in the company of my sister?;)

Ta ta- for now at least!

I have to say, I'm becoming increasingly self-conscious of our sisterly conversations in the blogosphere (Hi Lina!) :)

That said. Who cares? I'm so excited you're coming, I can't breath. Really. You're coming tomorrow! You are? Min sidjjich?

I'm pinching myself here. Black and blue all over (you know, ameera 7aqeeqiyyeh and all that... says so on the pink slippers ;)

Okay, enough fadaye7 for one day now. Our ghaseel is masha3

Yella get offline and come here!
