A Night of Laughs....and Limbo

Last night was probably one of the most fun nights in the past three months. Most of the other ladies on my handball team are my age or older, but the youngest turned 18 this past week and invited us all to her 18th birthday party. Here 18 is the year, similar to 21 in the States. The party was at a bar here in Ahlem (my little part of the city) and only a 5-10 minute walk from my house.

There were some tables set up, lots to drink, and some food to eat as well. The party started around 9 and as more and more people from the handball team showed up our table kept getting longer until it was shaped like an L. It was really nice getting to know the girls (and their boyfriends) outside of practice. We talked and laughed all night long, danced a little, and around 2 some one decided it was necessary to play limbo (oh goodness).

A proud moment: I opened a beer bottle without using a bottle opener. The sad part: I cut my finger a little bit doing it and I don't think I could do it again. haha oh well.

Yes, I also thought you would've chipped a tooth. That's the common tale
