Oh Mother…You Are Cute!
» ‎ Shopaholic Q8eya

The other night, I walk to my mother and she asks:

Mum: وين على الله الليلة؟؟ (Where will you be heading tonight?)
Shopa: معزومة عرس (I am invited to a wedding)
Mum: عرس منو بعد؟؟ (whose wedding?)
And just when I was about to answer
Mum: كل يوم عرس كل يوم عرس..ومتى ننعزم على عرسك (Everyday a wedding, everyday a wedding; and when will we be invited to your wedding?)
Shopa: ماراح تنعزمين لأنج بتعزمين (You will not be invited because you will be inviting)
Mum: لا…لا…لا…ماني عازمة أبي أنعزم…. (No…No…No…I don’t want to invite..I want to be invited)
Shopa: إنزين (OK)

The next night & after I came back from another wedding, my mum asks again:
Mum: شلون العرس؟ (How was the wedding?)
Shopa: وناسة (fun)
Mum: كان يحبها؟؟ (He was in love with her?)
Shopa: منو؟؟ (Who was?)
Mum: هاو!!! المعرس (The groom!!)
Shopa: إي..يحبون بعض 3 سنين (Yes, they were in love for 3 years)
Mum: كل من يحب..كل من يحب..وإنتي ما تحبين؟؟ (Everyone is in love..everyone is in love…and you? You are not in love?)
Shopa: لأ (No)
Mum: روحي دارج نامي يالله (GO TO YOUR ROOM AND SLEEP)

She was sounded very frustrated. Poor Mother, she is very cute.

The reason why Nasri hasn't signed
» ‎ Arsenal-Mania.com | The Arsenal Website For Arsenal Fans

It's like a never-ending transfer deal - will he, or won't he? It was initially thought that Samir Nasri would have his future sorted before the end of the European Championships, but Marseilles apparently urged Arsenal not to complete the deal due to their accounts being submitted for that financial year (they would end up paying more tax).

Dear Blog
» ‎ eshda3wa

My little sister is about to take a very important step forward in her life.. and she needs her family's support. Mainly me. But apparently to her support means do my work for me!
Shes getting her university papers and applications in order, and i being the supportive older sister that I am told her to send me her stuff so that i do it for her.. Guess what blog.. did she send me all i asked for? No!!
She thinks that everything is a minor and fixable
even loosing your SAT scores which are a must for getting accepted at the university.
Then when i tell her off for her boroood and irresponsibility what does she so casually tell me?
Lets go somewhere we can shop!

SHOP really?!
you might not get accepted into uni and u want to discuss shopping options with me?!

so she might think im being a rotten ******
but im only looking out for her well being.

She still has a lot to learn, and i hope leaving the nest will teach her how to take on some responsibility.

So instead of taking it as a 3ibra not to ask me for advice my dear sister... how about you actually TAKE my advice and do as i tell you :**

love always
your older and wiser sister.

who is your favorite leader?
» ‎ God Help Us All...

"When Arabs were asked to identify the leader they admire most (in an open-ended question), the number one answer overall in a recent poll, (and especially in predominantly Sunni countries such as Egypt, Morocco, and Jordan) was Hasan Nasrallah, Hezbollah’s leader. The Palestinian problem continues to rank as "most important" problem among non-Palestinian Arabs."

IE6 Independence?
» ‎ Photo Matt
Hot off the news that 37signals is removing support for IE6 in their products I thought it would be interesting to look at the stats from WordPress.com as an update to my previous post just under a year ago. Is it reasonable to drop support for IE6 in a mainstream app?

These stats cover Jan 1 - Jun 30: 787 million “absolute unique” visitors, 1.6 billion visits, and 3.3 billion pageviews. I feel these numbers are large enough and WordPress.com-hosted blogs diverse enough to be fairly representative. All the numbers come from Google Analytics. In parentheses I’ve put the delta from the last time I blogged these stats.
1. 59.41% - Internet Explorer (down 3.05%), sub-breakdown:
  1. 53.42% - Version 7.0 (up 18.25%)
  2. 46.28% - Version 6.0 (down 17.82%)
  3. 0.14% - Version 5.5 (down 0.14%)
2. 32.82% - Firefox (up 2.08%)
3. 4.81% - Safari (up 0.98%)
4. 2.04% - Opera (up 0.26%)
5. 0.41% - Mozilla (down 0.11%)
The operating system breakdown:
1. 89.41% - Windows (down 0.95%)
2. 7.86% - Macintosh (up 1.13%)
3. 1.82% - Linux (down 0.37%)
4. 0.17% - iPhone (out of nowhere!)
5. 0.10% - PlayStation Portable (up 0.07%)
So as you can see, IE6 users account for about 27% of all the visits we saw. If I were building something for “the internet” IE6 compatibility would still very much be on my radar. Everyone’s users or customers are different, and if I saw IE6 falling below 10% on one of my sites I’d probably very seriously consider what 37signals is doing.

The good news is most trends are going in the right direction: strong growth of Firefox, IE7, and Macintosh, and the iPhone came out of nowhere to generate 2.6 million visits (and another 1.1 million from the iTouch).

Happy July 4th!

readings on mercenarism
» ‎ God Help Us All...

"The king of Congo, on Augst 2, 1526, in a letter addressed to king John III of Portugal complained that Edo mercenaries from Benin (now a city in Nigeria) were causing trouble in his country. In 1541, the King of Congo sent another complaint to the king of Portugal that Benin mercenaries were participants in disturbances provoked by Portuguese adventurers."

"Lourenco Pinto, the captain of the Portuguese ship that carried missionaries to WARRI, near Benin, in August 1691 sent the following report to SACRA CONGREGAZIONE at the instance of Father Montelcone: "According to the testimony of this captain, Great Benin, where the King resides, is larger than Lisbon, all the streets run straight and as far as the eye can see. The houses are large, especially that of the King which is richly decorated and had fine columns. The city is wealthy and industrious. It is so well governed that theft is unknown and the people live in such security that they have no doors to their houses.""

Pancho
» ‎ God Help Us All...

"No one can be said to be more synonymous with the wild side of Mexico than Pancho Villa - the rebel general of the Mexican Revolution who invaded US territory and led American soldiers on a wild goose chase all over the harsh Mexican countryside for months.

Along with Emiliano Zapata and Francisco I. Madero, Villa led peasant armies to a swift victory over the corrupt and repressive regime of the aging dictator, Porfirio Diaz, only to see Madero betrayed by reactionary plotters. Undaunted, the rebel generals led their armies in another uprising against the usurpers, routing them at every stage and ultimately driving them into exile. "

Internet safety
» ‎ ChiKapaPPi

I am haunted by this notion ever since I’ve let certain people into my “cyber life” and although I’ve contemplated the idea of blocking - removing - erasing some of them I thought, well they would still have access to me through other common friends and here I specifically mean Face Book. It’s weird when you have this sense of insecurity even though you are sure that you are not doing something out of the norm, I mean it’s only some pics that you upload or certain useless information but to others that like more than enough to ruin your life.. sick people! I will block you soon :) - I edited the profile so you can’t see shit anymore…

I couldn’t sleep in spite the fact that I slept from 1:30 AM yesterday till like 8 PM same day and I am feeling sleepy right now but it’s because of the “spiked” punch which is only Red Bull and Orange Juice plus the non stop dancing for hmm.. around 3 hours!! I totally gave my soul up on Wednesday and kept all my worries aside and by that I refer to the previous post.

Let’s get back to the topic, I accepted a comment today informing me that I was being bashed on a blog so I check it out and turns out some idiot is using my nickname and link writing stupid comments which are clearly not mine.. I mean, I won’t write stuff like that. It’s so stupid that a person would act like such a loser, stealing my identity to mess around.. I do not have anything to say to this person…. err.. I am helpless when it comes to dumb people, I do not have what is required to fight back anymore and anyways, HAPPY BLOGGING you idiot! :)

This is what I meant by online safety, how can one feel comfortable enough to express his - her self and share identities when the world is full of jerks! No sure who will do what and when to your pictures - name - email etc.. I watched this happen to a couple of bloggers before and again on Facebook! How does it feel when you open a blog or facebook to see your pictures and people forging your comments - facts to strangers who are dying for gossip material in this lousy world!?

Most importantly, why do some people deliberately hurt and offense others even when they do not know them in person?! What ever happened to freedom of expression in all its forms?!

فضيحة ؟
» ‎ Frankom

نص الكويت شافت حلقات المحامي اللي تزوج 3 مرات أو أكثر وكل زيجاتة فشلت فشل ذريع والله أعلم من هو السبب هل هو ام الزوجات ؟ ليس هذا هدفي بل أعتقد الجميع شاهد حلقات برنامج تو الليل الذي يبث على قناة الوطن والذي تحدث عن معاناة الاخوة المصريين في مصر وأظهر كيف أن بعض الكويتيين في فترة من الزمن (ولا زالت) يذهبون الى مصر (ليس مصر فقط) لقضاء صيف ممتع مع أحدى أبناء ذلك الشعب وقد يخطأ لتضع لاحقا طفل وهو ولا من شاف ولا من دري وبس يرد ديرتة وينسى

طبعا الله أعلم يمكن يكون اللي قاله خالد عبدالجليل في الحلقات يكون صحيح ويمكن غلط .. عاد هني يأتي دور المحامي الاخر على قناة العدالة ويتهم فيها قناة الوطن والمحامي بتزوير حقائق ونهب الاموال من التبرعات لصالح المحامي أو القناة !! أيضا الله وأعلم

طبعا على موقع يوتيوب هناك الحلقات التي تم بثها من قبل قناة العدالة واليكم جزء منها

طبعا ضحكت وقلت المواقف كاهي وايح المجمع البس الحزام علشان أدش المواقف ؟ طبعا بدأ الكذب وقلت (توني فاصخة لاني وصلت المواقف) رد علي الحبيب وقال مايخالف اصفط .. عاد حبي الشديد للشرطة الكويتية وحبي الشديد لمشاهدة اجسام الشرطة الكويتية وطريقة لبسهم للقبعة أو (الكاب) وحبي لمشاهدة واحد مستانس بالنجوم اللي على كتفه وكأنه محرر الكويت والعراق وأفغانستان والصومال وزيمباوي قررت وكالعادة أني أعلمهم (الشرطة) طريقة جميلة في التعامل معهم

توجهت يسارا (مو يمينا .. كل شرطي بالكويت لازم يقول اصفط على اليمين ليش؟) وكان هذا أول عناد مني .. بعدين انتظرت بالسيارة لدقائق قليلة وانا أتابع نظرات الضابط اللي راح يخالفني وكنت أعتقد أن الضابط يقول هذا شفيه ثقة قاعد بسيارته ليش ما ينزل مثل باقي الشباب .. المهم عناد مني وعناد منّه الا أن نزلت أنا من السيارة وتوجهت اليه

للوهلة الاولى أعتقد بأنني سأقول التالي

تكفة الله يخليك .. طويل العمر … آخر مرة … شدعوة طوفني … وغلاتك آخر مرة

بس كل هذه الاشياء لم يحصل منها أي شيئ يذكر على عكس الشباب اللي كانوا مجتمعين ويطرون من الشرطة عدم مخالفتهم لعدم لبس حزام الامان امام مجمع تجاري !!!

المهم

شافني وعيني يت في عينه وأهو كله ثقة أني بترجاه

بدون مقدمات وبدون حتى كلمة لو سمحت بادرته لاقول

ماروح المجمع يعني ؟ يتخالفنني ولا لأ ؟

من هول الصدمة الحبيب تلعثم … وقال شسمك ؟ قلتله صورتي جدامك بالرخصة (بالاشارة الى - انت عمي ماتشوف؟) .. طبعا راح يعبي المخالفة وبس خلص قالي أقوالك !!! تكفة أقوالي على شنو !!! انت مو شايفني مو لابس الحزام يعني تبيني أقولك مو مخالف ؟؟؟؟ تكفون الذكاء ينبع ينبع

قلتله بسرعة البرق .. يرحم أهلك مخالف خلصني

طبعا الذهول للحين على صاحبنا خلص وقالي وقع … طبعا بوريه اني مستعيل وماني فاضيله جان أوقع بمكان توقيع المسؤول رد علي وقالي هني يبه هني .. قلتله هني هناك بروح السيارة وبشقها شبي فيها يعني

الحبيب هني احسه وده يقطني بأي دورية بس مو قادر

***

سؤالي المهم … أكو شرطة بالعالم تخالف عند مواقف مجمع والمخالفة تكون عدم ربط حزام الامان ؟ يعني لو شارع حيوي أو طريق عام أو طريق سريع ممكن بس عند مجمع ؟ بالله سرعتي بتكون 100 ؟ ما أقول الا … ينبع ينبع

It Only has a Strip Club
» ‎ TAT THE DON

That’s what my brother said to my parents to allow him to get GTA4 back. I was lmao, If you just wanted the game back, that goes into the things you should not say.

So I took the game to test it out and the game sucks big time. Don’t get me wrong the only thing enjoyable about it is the radio and listening to talk shows. If it was the first installment of the game, I would understand it if it has major flaws but come on all you did was just make it bigger and improved the graphics. Sluggish movement and really slow, I’m not expecting Devil May Cry motion or even Ninja Gaiden just something faster and more fluid than what you got. A speedometer on the car would be a nice bonus as well. All I will do is search a torrent of all the audio files in the game and that’s it. It was a real disappointment. So most of you are like wtf is TAT talking about, since lets face it most my readers are women. So I’ll just show you the strip club scene my brother thought would be a valid excuse.

I Wonder Why….

I always spill coffee all over myself when I am wearing a white shirt!!

So I walk in the office this morning with a big confident smile. Wearing one my lovely perfectly cut black pants and my well pressed buttoned up white shirt. I am thinking I look professional. Good! It’s about time those idiots take me seriously. I have 4 very important meetings today. I get in the office an hour earlier. I stare at the monitor holding up my starbucks cup and BOOOOM. Coffee is all over me and my poor white shirt has no become yellow. Ekhhh!!! This is not the first time this happen to me. There is a pattern. Everytime I wear something white I have to stain it.

Stranger in My own Country
» ‎ SpiKeD Q80

Its sad that Kuwait is getting to this point...

These two incidents happened to me during the search for an apartment...maybe they are the same..but has different views....

1- The really good ones that I am trying to get are rented out for foreigners ONLY..

2- Some good flats are rented with higher prices for Kuwaitis than for foreigners....

For the first point...why is a flat made only for non-Kuwaitis? And I am Kuwaiti and I should be allowed to get any flat I want regardless of my nationality......And being from the SAME country..I should not be treated as an alien...Its just not fair

As for the Second point...the increase in salary that occurred lately for Kuwaitis (both the 120 KD and 50 KD) has given the owners a chance to increase flat prices "3ala kaif elly 5alefohom"....not caring that the increase was done for a purpose of INCREASED PRICES....but no....madam I am Kuwaiti...I get more Money...Suck it from Him....and because non-Kuwaitis don't have the curse of "Increased salary 3al fathy" they have the better prices..

So if your non-Kuwaiti...Be happy your not treated as a Kuwaiti...Coz unfortunately...I am an Alien Kuwaiti...Living in My own Country...

I keep on fallin’…..
» ‎ ChiKapaPPi

I seriously feel like crack opening my skull, sticking both my hands in and literally pulling out all those bad ideas and delusions that effect me on a nearly daily basis.. I am so sick of myself! It reached a level where I am doubting God with all the bad luck I am going through or my mishaps! It’s not real I swear!

My basic problem now is marriage, especially me being close to my third decade and that’s not helping at all… It’s not that I don’t get attention from guys or it’s not like no one proposed but I am lost or should I say confused when it comes to making a decision about a life partner - let’s call it a case of “cold feet” although when time comes “enshallah” I won’t be a runaway bride!

Too many red lines one has to be careful not to cross and it’s vital that both the guy and the gal are aware of what they are going into because I hate it when someone acts upon an impulse!! Marriage is eternal to me.. no divorce is allowed in my family so I expect the same for me..

It’s just hard for me to “go down” a bit - lower the bar for the guys who propose, I mean I waited that much and I deserve something good.. if not better than other at least! I am not being envious but life is not fair when it comes to certain women getting the “best” according to this life time and I know I am drifting away from religion especially lately but how people act with me doesn’t make it better!

- Do not control me… I would give in to you with just a simple smile on your face or a tender look into my eyes

- Do not take me away from things that I like, this is what makes me as a human being

- I love having friends and I’d REALLY love to be with my man amongst a group of friends and be proud of him

- Religion is about tolerance not forcing someone to do what YOU want and use the excuse: “Because I want the best for you”! it drives me crazyyyyy!!!

I am not happy at all… I am social… I will never stop being social… I need a man… I would love to have kids… I need to settle down.. No need to do it by suffocating and killing my soul.

I want to continue studying… I want to travel the world… I want to have fun… I want to love madly and go willlllllllld!

I am OUT!
