Beautiful Picture

No this is not a painting, or a photoshopped picture, this is a real picture!
A forest of leaves looks like a field of wildflowers. Mountain outcroppings mimic river rapids. A road curve creates a faint smile. The photo’s brushstroke appearance occurred because winds shook a camera held outside a plane flying over the Linn Cove […]

Why I Hate Winter

Don’t you hate it, when you wake up in the morning, take a shower, get ready to go to school, and when you open the front door, you realize that its raining like crazy, and you are not wearing appropriate clothing for the weather outside.
So I go back to my room, put on a sweater, […]

Potato Pizza?

Twice baked potato on homemade crust is smothered with cheddar, bacon, and green onions. Sour cream on the side.
It doesnt sound that good doesnt it? But its absolutely the best PIZZA I EVER HAD. I wish I would have taken a picture, cause it doesnt look that good too, my roommate recommended it and […]

Barrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrd (Cold)

Its freezing now, 3 degrees (Celsius), and its 8.30 in the morning. I am freezing right now. Allah yastir min il shita (winter). Tonight’s low is -1 degrees.

Found IT!

(not this IT :P)
Samboosa Jibin (ma3a vegetables)!!!
Finally after searching all over those ethnic grocery stores (Middle Eastern and Indian) I found a small pack of frozen sambosa jibin (last box), problem is its only 12 pieces
Reminds me of the “sponge” episode on Seinfeld hehehe

I Hate This…

Its cold and raining, and we are still in the fall. Allah yastir when winter comes along, especially that its going to be my first winter here. When I first arrived, January 7th 2006, it was one of the best winters they had in Charlotte in a while, everyone was saying that the winters are […]

Fu6oor Blues

Our “Shilla” decided to cook on our first fu6oor, it helped that its Saturday so we had some free time. We wanted it to be special cause its the first day of Ramadhan. The “shilla” is 5 people in total. We wanted some soup, samboosa, and some Kabsa. The group of five grew to a […]

El Jaw Galab…

Yesterday was probably one of the best days of the year weather-wise. Whenever I chat or talk with someone from back home, one of the first things they ask me is “hows the weather” ma3thooreen 9ara7a
Yesterday was perfect, as well as most of the three weeks I have been here (except for a […]

NFL Season Kicks Off

We went to lunch today in a nearby restaurant/bar to watch my Carolina Panthers, only to watch them loose 20-6 against the Atlanta Falcons. They pretty much sucked, played badly, similar to the 2nd half of the AFC Championship Final last season. They had no belief at all, I think they never converted a 3rd […]

Yazeez In Town

I arrived in Kuwait yesterday via Frankfurt.
I didnt mention it here cause I wanted to surprise my family (I dont even know if they read this thing anyways:P ). They knew I was coming, but I told them that I am coming on Thursday not today (yesterday). It was a long long flight back home. […]
