The Greatest Day of My Life

Today is the greatest day of my life. The protest when perfectly with over 500 people showing up in blue. I, far away in Bloomington, Indiana am also wearing blue and told all my friends to do the same. Thanks to all the people’s comments on my previous post, I am a happier person. And I say it again, this is the greatest day of my life. Kuwait heard us. The government heard us. And the whole world heard us. This day will be covered in all major news corporations around the world. Here are but a few articles already published about the, yes I can say it now, historic day of March 7, 2005.

I’ll be adding more as they come..

  12. Q Says:

    Btw, Happy Birthday! :)

  13. - snookie - Says:

    ULA! worldwide?? hehe.. nope no pressure at all when its for a good cause.. i dunno about being an instant star, most probablly thought my mom drew the cartoon! but to the people that came up to her, she said that it was her daughter..

    mom says, there will be another rally next monday, she will be taking copies of another cartoon of mine that i actually did a year ago.. since its not here with me, i’ll try my best to post it here before monday..

    p.s. apparently i forget to put the ‘hamzas’ in my cartoons but that will be corrected in the future.. lol

    thanks for the birthday coment ba3ad.. and YES u r the GREAT.. ur the most famous blogger form kuwait.. and everyone thinks so ;p

  14. Q Says:

    snookie, lol thx for making my head grow 5 times its size! ;P

    and about my bro, how many Kuwaiti seniors do u have as seniors at IUB? He is very active politically if that helps ;P

  15. - snookie - Says:

    hmm.. well i only know on senior and one sophomore.. the senior dude, my parents asked his parents to look after me.. hehe.. he’s politically active.. he encouraged me to go to the NUKS conference in DC.. sadly he resigned his position in the Wi7da party.. OH yeah! he’s very critical about movies! lazim ikoon il filim GOOD 3ashan we go to see it with people.. does that sound like ur bro?? thats the only kuwaiti senior i know.. he’s super cool, i talk to him everyday on msn and he’s my muse :D two of my cartoons (the first one, and another not posted) were from collaboration.. my last cartoon, with the men in 3abayas, came to me when he informed me on sunday that the opposition is planning to have women protest against their rights.. now thats a LONG description, is that him??

  16. Q Says:

    snookie, thats the one!! Now u know where he got the “super coolness” from ;P

    Anyway, tell him to call me if u talk to him, I cant reach him on the number I have, and tell him to check out my blog, I dont think he knows about it yet!
