Well, this really old song just popped out and I figured out something. I have never had a cute neighbor my age, hehe. I really like the idea of having a cute neighbor, and you basically try to watch her moves and all that crap. Back in school days, you'd probably try to borrow her book or something.
I really missed that part in my life hehe!

Read the story on National Geographic.
I wonder if they will ever discover "elves". That would be really interesting. I believe I should have been an elf.

Today was one of the worste days ever, I have been working for two days on compiling 2.6 Kernel, I checked every website for the error msgs. Nothing worked out, I called my friend zu3bi, as he's more experienced with this compilation thing, we spent another two hours, same result.
Then I asked Yaman for some help, he's a professional Linux admin working for Xpress. it's 2 am, we've been working on it for almost 4 hours, also nothing good came out  .
I'm listening to a cheezy song right now, 'Wyclef Jean - Perfect Gentleman' You know how it sounds to me?
"Just cause she dances gogo it don't make 'er a hono"
I need to get some sleep, I got a lecture at 8, and an early business meeting tom

Thanks to Eman( Aqual Cool ) for writing While They?re Dying?
I started by writing a comment when it got really long I thought I might write here:
I'm happy that you're writing about something that we face everyday. You're talking about the mentalities of people. While I agree on the problem, and all the details. I don't agree on the last paragraph.
We have been talking about this for years, and I believe it's getting better most of the times, sometimes society is getting worse.
I believe the way to change all of this is by doing something, It's educated people who need to do the change. We can only change if we really work hard on it, educate our people. While that's pretty obvious, here's an explanation of my theory in order to form a better community.
Every person must specialize in at least one field( Computers, marketing, design, music..etc). They should try their best to acheive the highest levels of education and learning. Then they must form some sort of a community, e.g. I consider JoLUG to be a great example. I highly recommend that these communities have an "unofficial" nature for many reasons. Most important reason is the right to make a change. In unofficial communities, anybody could post their opinions and be taken seriously. Make these communities available for everyone, free and open.
We have faced many sick mentalities in JoLUG, but beleive me if you work really hard, the right way, they start to become very effictive and useful. Just love your people, this is what Ghandi did.

I just got back from Sheshet il Basha. A place that opened specially for the holy month of Ramadan. It's Basicly el "Hammam El Turkey" In Jabal Amman, behind CMS schools.
It's full of Hubbly bubblies of course. Most of the customers are my university collueges(Something i really hate). I hate seeing same people every where I go.
Anyway, there was a quiz night. The really cool thing is that we don't know 10% of the answers but thanks to Salam , she keeps SMSing her brother, and he googles for answers. hehe, not fair I know!
We tied for second place along with 3 groups, there was a knock out round, and we won Second place  Yippie! Each one of us got a CashU Card, not bad

I do have a dream, a vision. And it's getting clearer everyday.
Ok don't laugh, but I really feel that a day will come, when history will write about this day. I feelt it, I really do. I was never really motiviated by money. I kinda always had a better "Job" Offer. But I refused all jobs to follow my vision and my dream.
I'm really becoming obsessed with communication platforms. One day, I will build those huge communication platforms, for every sector out there. Because I know how to do that, and I know how to do it right.
I'm just not in a good mood right now, Whenever I remember my vision, my dream, I really become angry.

Today I had a really hard day at uni trying to do all the stupid registration stuff. I figured out something really relaxing.
try to say "Ya hani" 3 times, it's quite good. Today I think I said "Ya hani" over 300 times in a very loud voice. And everybody near the languages department, J.U. Starred at me.
Downloads:
"Ya Hani" (wav)

If you've seen me the past couple of weeks, you'd know why i'm writing this  I have been getting many requests lately to get a hair cut. Well, I got an Afro, and I kinda like it.
Here are some funny stories that happened lately.
- I was going to a meeting in Syntax, a really dear place to my heart, I worked there for 4 years. And as soon as I opened the door, I heard a laughter, not a normal one hehe, a VERY loud one! Lina, was there and she couldn't handle it hehe, and she actually went to look for scessors. then I walked into the room, I saw wa'el, and he kinda rolled on the floor laughing. Well, he's bald. I think he's just jelous hehe

I was wearing a funky shirt, with an Afro, I looked like a 70's Disco fan. The speakers turned on in the office, then I heard a really funny comment. "The 70's are back" hehe! It was Ahmad Humeid. Again the guy is bald

- Yesterday My sister left back to KSA. We were at her husband's parents house. And there was a 2 year old kid there. I was wearing a Redhat Fedora, I took it off. And the baby freaked out, she ran away, and cried for 10 minutes, haha.
Anyway, I'm gonna go cut my hair after 2 weeks probably. So no more funny stories

I found what I have been looking for! Some quality oriental music. Don't get me wrong, but most of the "arabic" Music is shitty. Absolutly crap. But there are many artists( not famous of course) who are trying to fight and write really good music.
The really good music is really hard to find, you can't buy it over amazon or any place. Oriental Tunes is what I have been looking for. They have a wide range of really good oriental stuff. Oriental Jazz, Rai influenced music and other stuff. The problem is that I only found one peice for naseer shamma!
You really need to check out these artists:
- Naseer Shamma
- Simoon Shaheen
- Anouar Brahem
