its not just pizza, its art!

this weekend i finally got up and cooked my very first pizza! it was nothing special, i used the ma6a7in cook book for making the dough and i improvised the rest. it actualy came out good, apart from the dough being a bit soggy and the pizza breaking away to pieces when not handle carfeully, but hey it's still pretty good for a first timer ;p
my goal is to one day do it this way http://jvpizza.sliceny.com/, this guy claims he's found the recipe for the perfect pizza, its gonna need practice but am gonna try it...

bored kuwaities

a while ago a friend of mine was telling me how he hated life in kuwait and how boring it is and that there was nothing to do and he couldnt wait to find some chance to leave, i agreed to some extent that there is less to do in kuwait then most other places, but that it was still not as bad as it seemed. i told him that to survive in kuwait you need to find yourself an obsession, something that will occupy your time, energy, and thoughts.

anyways, after saying that, i began to think what we do to pass the time, what obsessions keep different people sane in this place, so i decided to list some of my addictions and the choices of what kind of person you could become in order not to be bored all the time, so here goes:

1) the dowaniya addict:

this is your average joe, this kinda guy seeks simple pleasures in his life. his days are long and mostly frustrating, so he chooses to wind down in a dowaniya, a place where he can simply relax, put his feet up, and be in the company of friends and like minded individuals. other traits of this individual is being completely and utterly addicted to winning eleven. for those of you who dont know, winning eleven is a soccer game played on the sony playstation. believe me when i tell you, some dowaniyas are built ONLY for playing winning eleven, and the patrons of these dowaniyas can go for up to 6 or 7 hours non-stop. variations to the dowaniya for the average joe is el-gahwa, a sheesha place. on some occasions he likes to leave the comforts of the dowaniya and go have a ras or rasain of m3asil 3anab or saloom, this is true especially when the weather is nice or when a soccer game is on.

2) the starbuckian:

this energized individual truly needs to get out and breath. he needs to stimulate his senses visually in order to feel satisfied. likes the hustle n bustle of the crowd and enjoys a bit of gossip. staying 3 or 4 hours in a starbucks is the norm for this guy, and has to go to both choc bars at least once a week. other traits of this individual include always finding a way to pass thru the second ring road "shari3 el 7ob" where ever his destination might be. other alternatives include being seen at starbucks solidair or the starbucks in leicester square.


3) the t.v. fanatic:

this guy is very imaginative and likes to be inspired by bigger then life things, hence watching the tele. he finds normal everyday life dull and doesnt believe there is much excitement around, so he turns to the creative minds of the writers and directors from a far for entertainment. complimentary items that are needed to feed this addiction are a couple of external hard disc's and a very high speed internet connection so he can download and store all the t.v shows and movies he can find. also a big screen plasma or projector adds to this experiance. (this character is very similar to the dowaniya addict and, in some cases i have observed, can be both at the same time)

4) google's baby:

if your reading this then you know what am talking about :P

well i guess these are the most common ones, let me know what u guys think

Lasek not Lazer!

i wore my glasses to gym today. they are very old and dont do much to help my vision cuz i got them so long ago that my eyes have gotten worse. i ran out of contacts and wasnt in the mood to go get new ones. anyways as i was walking upstairs when i saw 2 guys talking and thru my blurred vission thought i recognized one of them so i very happily and with a huge smile on my face went to say hello, only to be shocked in realising that this guy was not my friend, it wasnt someone i didnt know either but even worse, it was someone who knew i didnt like him and i knew he didnt like me! when i realised it it was too late, i was standing a few inches from them with a smile, they noticed me and stopped talking and just stared at me. Fuck! so regretfully i said hello, they said hello back....awkward silence...i turn around with my tail between my legs and walk away!

i gotta get the lasek surgery. i wanted to get it a long time ago but when i found out i had to pay 600kd from my own pocket i looked for alternatives. someone actually suggested that i go and get it from Iran for 100kd. anyways i opted to go to the military hospital and get it done over there. so i go and do all the test and they put my name down for surgery...that was more then 2 years ago! throughout those 2 years i went back to the hospital 5 times to ask when its gonna happen, and all 5 times i get the same reply " el sekertaira eb ejaza o gafla e maktab o makhtha el mifta7 ma3aha, manigdar enchayiklik, come back after 2 weeks". i'll let ur imagination figure out the kinda words i had for "el sekertaira". anyways i went back there a few days ago and guess what?? la ashwa she was there this time, but!..."esalam 3alaikom, ekhty ana makhith maw3id yimkin min sintain o abe a3arif ommita 3amaliyti?"..."asfeen ukhoy el kombutar 9arla shahrain kharban, ta3al raji3na 3ogob esboo3ain"..."okay mashkoora caugh-fuck u-caugh".
p.s. i think u know exactly what i said to her ;p

its not gay!

last week i attended the musical show The Lion King in london, and all i have to say is its simply amaaazing! from the first song you start to get chills and goosbumps and all that nostalgic feeling like your a kid all over again, its like all those times you wished u were actually in the movie finally came true, like a fantasy. getting carried away? maybe ;p bs mali shughol it was a wonderful show and i had a great time.

this is a picture i took outside the Lyceum theater in london

this is the only pic i took from inside cuz we werent allowed to photograph the shows, i got a pretty good seat, one of the actors grabed my hand as he was running from the back to the stage, i almost ruined my pants min el khar3a!

thats it, if you ever get the chance then go see it, its worth it. Adios and Hakuna Matata :D
