check this story out …

So this guy finds my portfolio website while he was googling for something. He adds me up on msn. We chat, he’s an indian designer working for an american company in kuwait. We meet, we talk … nice guy and everything. He asks me if I got any “cool music” something he can use in some interactive presentation he is making for the company. I give him with the most pure intentions a bunch of my “coolest” CDs (originals I must add … back then didn’t have a CD recorder).

He kinda told me that the whole company is relocating to dubai and he will be moving too. No problem, we will miss you man … stay in touch and all that crap.

I got busy and I kinda lost contact with him, basically I didn’t call. So after finishing whatever project I was working on back then and getting some free time. I decided to call on my indian friend and see what he’s up to. The phone was ringing but he wouldn’t pick up. I tried after a couple of days, the same.

I was thinking “oh he’s just too busy with some big ass presentation or something”. I don’t know what made me go and check out his website only to find that he mentioned that he already relocated to dubai. You can only imagine the anger, the rage, the complete dissatisfaction with what I just learned. I wasn’t really angry about him not saying goodbye or meeting up one more time before he finally leaves … fuck that, apparently this guy doesn’t care about our so called friendship. I fucking wanted my CDs back. I tried emailing him, smsing him. No luck.

Time passed by and I just forgot about the whole thing. Now out of the blue he’s sending me this email

Did you notice that? He’s replying to a two years old email I sent to him. After some thinking I remembered I visited his website a few weeks ago to see what he’s up to. Maybe he saw something in his stats, hits from kuwait, and figured out it was me.

Right now I’m puzzled and I have no idea how to react.

What would YOU do?

Anybody up for dinner with tata? No?
Well, I will wait for one hour …

If nothing then I will just go by my self.

Although these “MO Health” messages are getting quite annoying, I gotta admit I admire what they are doing to raise awareness for this cause.

“margoogah” is just another name for “ma7roog 9ub3ah”? right?

I been up for more than 24 hours.
I shall get some sleep.

Will tell you about it all later.
Night babes

I am right now.

I fucking hate working under crazy deadlines like these or picky collaborators like her.

Just felt like letting it out here.

Peace (yeah right)

Way to go shahad, really proud of you.

Rock on sister and you girls hang in there, it’s gonna be alright.

I dropped more t-shirts at mukan, mostly size M.

Guess who got picked to test the new blogging service from WordPress. I Will tell you all about it once I get to play around with it.
Just about time if you ask me, I was looking forward playing with wordpress before I do the actual move.

Just when I got hooked (pun intended) to his Love vs. Blog series.

Mabrook man, for some reason I don’t want to say “minnik el mal o minha el 3yal” I Just realized how discriminating it is for all the “independent women”

On behalf of all bloggers, I wish you a happy life with whomever you chose to spend the rest of your life with. Mabrook again.

Since he disabled the comments on his blog, feel free to leave your “tabreekat” and the happy life wishes here on this post. (yes man, I’m trying to pimp my blog in the process)

Daftar el 3aniya is with Playa Hater of Doggizle.

After few successful singles, James murphy released his first and his best album. He recentlly announced from the Bowery Balroom in newyork while they, LCD Soundsystem, were playing their last gig in their tour, “After this show, we’re done. We’ll go on and quitely make bad albums.”

I think that line will be a good starter for “Losing My Edge” Part 2.

His music is something like a rock band making dance music. So yeah check out the guy who played daft punk for the “rock kids” in CBGB.

Talking about CBGB, according to popbitch, They lost their house in Newyork but they were offered a new one in Las Vegas.

NOT AVAILBLE FOR DOWNLOAD ANYMORE

This is happenning in america, from a liberal comedian, over a fucking t-shirt. I wonder how long it will take before something like this happens to me.

BTW Yesterday I was invited to a birthday party and one of the guests brought one of my t-shirts as a gift. The smile on my face was THIS BIG.

P.S: Shoosh, That was the best time I had in a long long while. Love you.

Do you know the road to jahra looks like disneyfuckinland when you’re ass drunk. just make sure you’re listening to the cardigans’ “love fool” … Love me Love me, Fool me fool meeeeee

I miss you

so what? we are not gonna call each other no more?

I miss you

I saw somebody who looked exactly like paul from the video game, tekken.

I sweat, I was a bit sick I’m good now.

I amazw myself wen i’m dunk

P.S: She’s not into me … I know.

I found it near plaza complex (the hotel side) in salmyia. Obviously some smart fucker removed the dot under the “jeem”. Hilarious.

I can’t wait for the next episode of MadM’s “Love vs Blog”. The guy is delivering some of his finest work with each episode. His humor, his colors and his strokes have changed (a little). He’s telling the jokes from a very insider perspective, makes you wonder what the mad man has been up to lately.

I also like the fact he disabled commenting on his blog. You don’t really need more cheering now, do you?

On a more hilarious note, you guys have to read the unreal Salha & Saad (a la “Darb El Zalag”). Their posts are funny, cute and sometimes they’re sooo believable, you can’t help but wonder if they are for real or not.

Found the link somewhere on the web, downloading it right now.
I will post a review once I give it a listen. Hope it’s as good as the first one.

Right-click on the post title and “Save Link As” or “Save Target As”. You will have to uncompress the *.rar file with something like WinRAR If you’re on PC.

Enjoy

Hello there

I would like to sell my EPSON Stylus Photo 1290. I’ve been doing a lot of web and screen design recently and I don’t use it that much. I would like to get a laser printer for the contracts, sketches and those must-read-later articles.

Anybody interested?

See: Shemale moms

Apparently, some chinese asshole (calling him self “brunin”) hacked Safat, I tried accessing the aggregator pages but all of them were showing the same retarded logo. I don’t think it’s a simple index.html replacment thing.

Good luck Nibaq, I hope it isn’t that big of a problem.

but … WHY?

OK, I need to write something here.
Lots of things happened recently. I feel like rambling, here we go again.

First of all, thanks everybody for the beautiful suggestions for the advertising-related blog Q and I about to start. We picked a name that was inspired by one of the suggestions. We don’t really have a winner here. The final name, the inspirational suggestion shall remain a secret till further notice. Thanks everybody. Also, It would be extremely nice if some people could remove the sticks up their asses, This will save them and us the pain we are going thru everyday.

Recently, God or whoever is in charge here is playing a game with me and it’s really freaking me out . Whenever I check the time, it always has to be something like 4:44, 3:33, 5:55, or even worse 11:11. This happens to me almost ALL the time and I can do nothing but wonder, WTF?

I made a deal with Mukan Café to sell my t-shirts there. You totally need to pass by that spot at some point in your life. Not only for my t-shirts but for the amazing, cozy and cool atmosphere of the place and the nice people who frequent the place.
Here are the directions: ( and no, I’m not gonna draw a map for obvious reasons :p )

You are on the fourth ring road, salmiya behind you. You’re just passing over the bridge over fahaheel highway. Stay on the right lane until you see a “sub road”, it’s parallel to the fourth ring road. You drive till you reach the theatre where this big poster of “kuwaiti fee al faloojah” will be on your right side. You take a right after the theatre. you go ’seedah’ for a lil bit then take the first right, then a left. Drive for, like, 100 meters and it shall be on your right side. You can see the bamboo fence or if you come at night you will see the red neon sign (how classic) “Mukan”.

Don’t be afraid when you step in a small room suspecting you trespassed somebody’s house. Say hi, order your drink from john and somebody will guide you. It’s fun, unless you’re an antisocial.

Talking about social stuff, I’m sorry my fellow bloggers for not commenting or for my lack of chatting with you my msn buddies, or yahoo buddies for that matter. I’ve been juggling lots of random small projects and few big ones recently and the last thing I wanted to give a fuck about was blogging. I hope you understand. Also, I apologize for each an every person who ‘tagged’ me, I’m sorry.

Did I mention I’m really happy going back to my freelancer’s lifestyle?

Did I mention I might move to dubai? more on that later.

Shit, fuck that … I’m not gonna continue this … I have a meeting in two hours, better get my shit ready. See guys later.
