Yesterday was a busy day for me. It was my dear friend Alea's annual 21st birthday. We hold a party every year at our school and it was lots of fun, and lots of hard work. We had the students and guests participating in the activites. Games, dancing, all kinds of music and songs to sing along to.
At one point they had me dressed up in a Libyan costume and dancing. It was great fun and we all had a good time and lots of laughs.
Some of the pictures of the event are posted on the school's blog - go have a look: http://alea-english.blogspot.com
By the way.... if anyone has any pictures of me wearing the Libyan costume please email them to me. My camera's batteries ran out and I didn't get a picture.

Annual 21st Birthday is when you are 21 for a day, then you go back to being 20 again for the rest of the year and get to be 21 again for a day. Personally I'm gonna be 18 till I die - just like the song!

Highlander - my birthday falls in the month of Ramadan this year so no birthday party for me. We always close the school for Ramadan, but the students asked if we could have a party before we break for Ramadan - so if we do that than you are welcome to join us.
ReplyDeleteThis party was interesting because I met two bloggers - Thea and A.Adam at the party as well as Youcef from ajdabiyaonline. It was a nice way to meet people!
