All Geared Up

Last weekend we’ve decided that my friend and I are going to enroll ourselves into tennis lessons after some convincing from my friend’s friend and our husbands. The first scheduled meeting was Monday, although the formal lessons will only start this Thursday (August 17). So on Sunday, off we went to City Center to look for a tennis racket. We jumped from one sports store to another to find the “perfect” racket. By perfect, I mean a good quality yet affordable one. After going to and fro all the stores, we finally decided on what rackets to buy. I got a Head Titanium 4200 being sold for QR199 but got it for QR179. My friend got a Head Titanium 4100 being sold for QR208 but which she got for QR 160. She was supposed to get a 4200 but there was only 1 left in one store. Later on, we found out that the 4200 is for women, so she’s going to buy one after all. As for our outfits, we’ve decided to settle with our old pair of rubber shoes, shirts and ¾ pants. We’ll get into our “Sharapova” outfits when we learn to play like her.
