I DID It! Shamadan!

[Azeeza]

Last night I did a shamadan duet with my teacher and I was complimented by four different Arab men!

I've NEVER been complimented by an Arab person before!

I'm thrilled to pieces!

[Shanazel]

Oh, good for you, Azeeza! And tell me- how did you finally decide to smuggle the shamadan in?

 

[Kharmine]

Good on you, girl!

[Azeeza]

Thank you everyone!

Zorba helped me tremendously.

I had a "wimple" to cover my hair, but incredibly, no wax fell on either my teacher or myself. And I carried the shamadan into the restaurant and put it in the "changing" room.

There were a lot of customers there and I was terrified. Not to mention, I had a virus of some sort and had vertigo for days.

The owner, the bar tender and two customers complimented me, surprisingly. I was a bit dull at the time, but later on, when I was feeling better, I realized what those compliments meant to me. They didn't come from my teacher, classmates, or friends, these were other customers and owners of the restaurant and they know a lot more about shamadan than I do.

I'm still on cloud nine! Can you tell?

Oh that's so exciting! I've only got to see a dancer dance with the shamadan 1.5 times but I really enjoyed it...
