I Got Skills

If you could choose to be a master/mistress of any skill, which would you pick?

There are many skills that I would love to learn. Most of them are physical. I would love to learn how to paint or swim proffessionally, but the skill I want to master in does not require physical activity. Well, not exactly. What I’m talking about is social skills. I know them, except I don’t practice them. The problem is, I’m rarely in the mood to socialize, but whenever I do, I do great. I become spontaneous and I would have great presence, but that only happens when I want to. Some people are always like that without even thinking about it. Another problem is that being social requires being up to date with everything, so that it is easy to communicate with anyone. It’s weird to think that as a blogger, I should be updated with all the latest news, and I am, but I forget things easily. I only remember the information that matters to me. Maybe someday I will become the Mistress of Socializing.

Latest Music

I really need to update my songs! I love both Arabic and English songs. I don’t really listen to a specific genre. Okay, for Arabic songs I hate the old classics like Fayrooz, Um Kalthoom and Abdulhaleem. I admire their voices, but they’re not my type. I also don’t like Abdo’s songs, too long and boring. I love Rwaished, Majeed, Al Jassimi and Nabeel Shael. The new Arab singers are good, and some of their songs are amazing. English songs… I hate classics, heavy metal, and rock. I love mostly country, R&B and techno. I love Beyonce!!

ANY SUGGESTIONS?

New Beginning

This is the longest I’ve gone this year without posting on my blog. I’m really disappointed that I couldn’t make time to post. It’s been very busy and all my best friends birthdays are in the end of May, so I’m not home most of the time. The problem is, every time I turn on my laptop to post, I realize I’m too tired to even think. I hate posting from my phone, so I didn’t really have a choice. I miss using my laptop and checking out other blogs and watching episodes. I really hope this doesn’t happen again and I’m going to be back on track starting from tomorrow.

Learn a New Language

Why is it that in everyone’s wish list there’s a need to learn a new language? Rarely do people cross it off that list. Why is it even there? Maybe you’ll find out that you don’t even enjoy learning a new language. If you really want to do it, delaying it is not the answer. That is because the younger you are, the more your brain would absorb the words and understand them better. It maybe hard at first, but with practice you will get the hang of it. The easiest way to learn is to join a center where the language is taught, preferably with a friend. That way you can practice it together. Then one day you will be able to cross off your list. I personally know how to speak Arabic, English and French. My French, though, is a bit rough because I haven’t been practicing.
What’s one language that you have always wanted to learn?

Why are People Illogical?

20110626-023348.jpg

People think they can have whatever they want. Be who ever they want to be. But life isn’t like that. It’s better to work with what you have. Be yourself. Survive. Don’t have dreams that are not yours to reach. You need to find your own needs. Life is all about finding yourself, and when you do you don’t want to be disappointed with what you see.

Neighborhoodr

Neighborhoodr is a local neighborhood blog network where anyone can quickly and easily post about what’s happening in their neighborhood without having to log in or register.

I am so excited to be announcing that I am the official Kuwait Editor for Neighborhoodr. It’s so cool that I’ve reached that far. At first, I found this website by coincidence and now after a lot of hard work, the co-founders Richard and Anthony gave me a chance to be an editor for Kuwait. What’s so cool about it is that anyone can post. And it’s really easy too. There are also neighborhoods from all over the world. I’m the reason behind them adding Kuwait! It’s now called Surra, Kuwait. I told them to change it to only Kuwait, so that it includes the whole country. What I ask from you now is to visit that site and post something.           Neighborhoodr Homepage     Neighborhoodr Surra, Kuwait

Inspired By?

I can never answer this question without thinking about the most inspiring person I have ever known. Her name is Danderma (a Kuwaiti blogger). Even though she may not know this, but she is truly an inspiration.

I was asked that question a long time ago and I wasn’t able to answer it. It’s hard to explain who she is if someone doesn’t know what a blog is. It’s so weird that in the blogging world there are so many famous people, but at the same time people not into blogs don’t know them. The blogging world never collided with the real world. Even if a blogger was really famous, a person that doesn’t read blogs would not know him or her. So, when will our worlds collide? When will the time come when talking about blogs is a typical question to ask? “So, how’s your blog?” people would say instead of the usual “How are you?”

The next time someone asks me that question I hope my answer wouldn’t be weird to you. A person that inspires you doesn’t have to be famous or historic. They just have to matter to you and what you think.

The Only Reason I Blog..

..is to see your feedback.
now if I don’t see it then I find no reason for me to blog
I used to get tons of comments and emails every now and then
now all I see is emptiness
the people who used to be regular readers are not anymore
all I ask is why?
has my blog become boring?
am I not updating often enough?
or is it because no one has time to read blogs anymore?
