Lazy day after a long week

It has indeed been a long and busy week regarding work and this weekend was definitely needed. After facing intense parents for 4 hours spread over two evenings after the school days, energy levels were at a low when it came to teaching enthusiastic 6 year olds. I managed to squeeze in a visit to El Rehab (another city within Cairo about 45 minutes from my place) to see some guys from the crew for dinner, an evening of excellent guitar playing (not that I can strum or change chords quickly enough to save my life) and some challenging competition around the pool table. I managed to get to the black ball in 2 out of 3 of my games played with the third game just ending in disaster. Our tournament pool team, Cue Tips are made up of girls and even though we are the only female competing team, we still manage to bring some firey challenge to the other teams. However, Tuesday night was an epic fail...ouch!

The weekend was nice and relaxed in comparison with an early night on Thursday after some pool practice and an early morning rise on Friday for some long awaited netball games! It was just a practice session before the beginning of the tournament next Friday, but I definitely need to work on my defending skills! The day ended in a busy party for 2 couple's engagement celebrations where loads of people from school got together. As for today, I have attempted to run another 10km but failed at 2.5km and felt sick out of the blue. I felt fine after walking back that same stretch and now it is time for some epic movie and duvet banter. Chilling and getting ready for hopefully a more relaxed week ahead.

Hope all is well in the land of the English speakers :D
