Grease!

Lil and I were at my sons' school this evening, watching 'Grease'! The hall was packed, and all three nights of the show were sold out. The audience was truly entertained; the singing and acting were not perfect but were entertaining. The castings were superb. The props were awesome, but I maybe biased since Haziq prepared the 'Car'. Remember the car, which Danny and Sandy used for the drive-in movie?

I was taken back to my first year in England, waking up to summer days and nurturing dreams throughout the summer nights. I was falling in and out of love on daily basis, admiring every single girls with pony tails who happened to smile at me. I was seventeen, awkward and too self conscious to make any positive impression on any girl, but I was in love...even if, I was only in love with love.

The memories of those first summer days were brought alive this evening, and of all places, amidst teen agers and their parents inside my sons' school hall, here in Jeddah.

Ahah, I enjoyed this evening! Well done boys and girls.
