Happy Ramadan

It's this time of year again....30 days of fasting, and overloading our stomachs after futoor. I'm looking forward to all the Kuwaiti sweets! I hope I don't gain much weight by the end of the month.
Have a great one y'all!

Where There's a Will There's a Way!


I've been struggling for the past couple of weeks trying to figure out a way to purchase TV shows, music, and movies from iTunes online store. I recently found out that I could order iTunes Gift Cards and use them to purchase whatever I need from the store. Finally, I won't be worrying about downloading torrents with several glitches that ruin watching my favorite shows.
For all international customers with no valid US credit cards, you can use the iTunes gift cards instead. It's easy, and it's safe to use. You can order them from Amazon.com, or iTunes store online.

Enjoy your shows!

Bolandism

Bolandism is a social movement that appeared in Kuwait in the beginning of the 21st century. This movement is basically linked to the Kuwaiti "icon", Haleema Boland. Physical traits of this movement include light brown hair with streaks of blonde or the other way around, flashy make up, and huge sparkling accessories. Other traits include and extreme soft and high-toned voice with a special accent, which makes half the letters in a sentence hard to hear.

Followers of Bolandism are generally women and in specific young ladies. Bolandists use their special characteristics to attract guys and have them drooling all over them. Some married women have taken on Bolandism to keep their men to themselves, because research has shown that married men who watch TV a lot compare their wives to the young, plastic celebrities, and then leave their wives for ones who look similar to what they see on the various tv channels.

During the years, the definition of Bolandism has progressed, and nonetheless will continue to change every year according to spring/summer and fall/winter fashions.

Evolution




MTC is changing on Saturday! I expected the change to be better and bigger, but frankly the logo is not really good.

Summer Anthem!

Spending this awesome summer in the US of A, we decided our summer anthem was "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie AKA Fergalicious! But my playlist included other songs too. These are my summer jams for this year:

- Big Girls Don't Cry , Fergie

- Rehab , Amy Whinehouse

- What I've Done , Linkin Park

- Lovestoned , Justin Timberlake

-Like This , Kelly Rowland Ft. Eve

- Beautiful Girls , Sean Kingston

- Hey There Delilah , Plain White T's

- Thanks for the Mmrs , Fall Out Boy

- 4 in the Morning , Gwen Stefani

- Umbrella , Rihanna ft. Jay Z

- Say it Right , Nelly Furtado

- The Way I Are , Timbaland ft. Keri Hilson



I guess that's about it. Of course those songs will always be linked to the greatest memories I had with my friends!

What Goes Around Comes Around

Karma...I should be careful next time!

I'm pretty well known for being clumsy...so clumsy that even when I'm just standing still I could fall on my face. When I saw Beyonce's famous fall on TV from her Orlando concert i couldn't help but find it on YouTube and repeating the clip over and over again. I thought I would stop laughing at people falling because I know it's going to happen to me with my clumsy steps.
A few days earlier I was heading to my local NBK branch. As I was entering..I forgot that there was a step in front of me and fell flat on my face! I wasn't hurt, but oh my GOD! I was so embarrassed I didn't even want to get up. But Then I remembered what Beyonce did after her fall. She got up and continued the show. Being a fan of her and the former group of Destiny's Child, I'm respecting Beyonce's request not to upload the video of her fall, and hope that I don't fall in a public place again!

Goin' Wild!


What was I thinking when I was swinging on the Trapeze? This could be my career backup!

It was a really fun and thrilling experience! But the toughest part was going up the ladder. I hate heights, and going up an unstable ladder made me want to go down, but I stopped and thought, if Sarah Jessica Parker could do it then I sure can.

If you're ever in NY, don't miss it. It's really fun, and once you're swinging you'll love it.
