Egypt is the place to be.......

Egypt is seriously the place to be when you want to feel good!!! After weeks of down time, I put myself back on track, when shopping and bought some - what I call Egyptian clothing, i.e., bright, flowing, colorful etc etc. That is I bought bright colored tops and styles I never dreamt of wearing before.

The people at work were probably taken aback by the boldness of my change of style, but it was pretty nice to get compliments from everyone, even from the tuck shop guy. As soon as I walked in he looked at me and told me 'helwa helwa' which means nice or sweet, then went running to the administration office to tell the girls there, who came running out to see me!!!! So all throughout the day I got comments such as 'Wow' and 'Who is this pretty girl' and 'Gamila' (which also means nice).

It felt good and quite morale boosting getting compliments all day long, I think I should make it a habit once a week or fortnight at least!!!
