Don't Forget to BREATHE!

It's been such a hectic week/weekend for me. I started classes on Thursday! I am taking a seminar political science class: Political Economy in Nasser's Era and an economics class: The Economic Setting for Development.
  • Thursday: Finished work, went home, napped, then iftar at 6:15. Left home at 7 to make it on time for my 8 pm class [ it's Ramadan and everything has funny hours- that class is usually at 5] then we went to pray tahajod (my sister, my cousin and I) and that was over at 3 am.
  • Friday: I woke up at 4 pm!! then I went and had iftar at my best friend's ...there were a lot of people and it was fun! Then tahajod again until 3:30 this time.
  • Today I went to Alexandria with my sister, got there just on time for iftar with my grandma and her best friend and came back home afterwards (mind you, the train to Alex. is a two hour train!) I am yet to pray :)
What has everyone been up to? I miss you. I miss my blog. I still have to check my reader. That was just me reminding myself (and everyone) to breathe. Please don't forget to breathe.

i take three weeks to get used to the crazy hours of ramazan every year, and just as i get used to it, it is time to revert back to normal schedules! LOL.

Ah Ramadan sounds fun. I miss your blog too, I enjoy reading your posts, because even though they're daily occurrences to you, they're quite new to me. Your blog makes me wish to see Egypt!
