ذبيحة العيد

Saturday, December 30th, 2006

لماذا في هذا اليوم المبارك؟ لماذا في هذا اليوم المفرح والسعيد ويوم تجمع الأهل والأحباب؟

بعض العرب سعداء من خبر إعدام الدكتاتور صدام حسين وبعض المسلمين يحسبونه من شهداء حرب العراق لأنه اعدم في يوم عيد الأضحى المبارك

أنا شخصيا لا اقبل بحكم الإعدام لهذا الطاغية والسبب ليس لانه يوم عيد مقدس لدى المسلمين جميعا، إنما [...]

New Movies

Thursday, December 28th, 2006

I’ve seen a couple of trailers a few days ago and I can’t wait to see the two movies I mention in this post.
Smokin’ Aces is the first one I saw. What I gather from the trailer and the website is that it’s an action movie about 7 assasins. Reminds me of Kill Bill but [...]

Newcastle vs. Tottenham Hotspurs

Wednesday, December 27th, 2006

3′ Kieran Dyer (NU)
7′ Obafemi Martins (NU)
15′ Danny Murphy (Spurs)
34′ Scott Parker (NU)
Could this have been a better game?
First of all, I would like to say that this has been an awesome week. I could not have had it be any better. I’m writing this draft in Heathrow airport and my brother is sitting next [...]

Old Trafford

Sunday, December 24th, 2006

My first day in Newcastle, my brother and I woke up early in the morning and set off on our road trip to Manchester to go see Old Trafford.

Carling Cup Quarterfinal: Newcastle vs. Chelsea

Friday, December 22nd, 2006

For those of you wondering why I’m posting about this game instead of the Real Madrid game last night, it’s because I wasn’t able to see the Real Madrid match since I was at the Newcastle game! (and because Real Madrid apparently weren’t that great :/ )
I’ve been in Newcastle since Monday night visitng my [...]

Washington > Kuwait

Sunday, December 17th, 2006

On my way back to Kuwait on Thursday, I used United Airlines because I got my ticket last minute and it was the cheapest one at $1500. British Airways, which I usually take, was around $2500 (buying an earlier ticket is around $1500 also).
I was kinda dreading it because my experience with airlines that were [...]

Surprise!

Saturday, December 16th, 2006

I’m back in Kuwait! And I surprised my parents and family exactly as I had planned.
It started about a two months ago when I thought it’s about time for a new surprise. The last one I had was after my first semester and was for my extended family at my grandma’s house.
So, I told my [...]
