On a completly different topic, i wonder why your phone's closed, hmmmmm.

Re: My Blog’s First Anniversary

A few things came into my mind after reading that:

1)"Shit happens..." that's what you always say isn't it?

2)"life is a tear and a smile" (translate that into arabic)

3)"9ab7at allah min 9ab7atk"

And last but not least "Awain" (which is out of context, i know, but i dont give two damns about it!)

Oh yeah and congrats on the 1 year of blogging WOOHOO!

Re: People that can’t think.

MMK080 — Fri, 10 Mar 2006 06:26:00 -0000

My name in short form means dog with big mouth...Awain! where did he come up with these meanings!?

It seems to me whoever wrote this tried very hard to come up with something he can disguise his chain email with but couldn't come up with anything good so he just wrote this.

Don't get pissed off at stupid people, though. They can't help but be stupid. You can get pissed off at ignorant people though. They deserve it!

Anyway, good luck your your exams and I hope your plan to practice friendship with the "5alaat" again is working ;)

I'm right there with you my friend.

Re: Martin Lukes: Who Moved My Blackberryâ„¢ - By Lucy Kellaway

MMK080 — Tue, 18 Jul 2006 01:25:00 -0000

I don't really get it. Does it have a narrative or is it just a story told through emails that the high executive sent out to people?

and, dude, it is good to know you're remotely enjoying your time in Oman.

I am currently reading: The Lincoln Lawyer. It's a really engaging story about a criminal defense attorney who only defends client with money money money without really caring about innocence.

anyway, I will hopefully see you sooner than later.

A book about a contract analyst hmmmm. It could either be a big franchise, u know, first a novel then a big hollywood movie adaptation then the novel getting translated into 80 different languages OR it could be the biggest failure to ever grace the face of the earth as a novel.

I think a story about a contract analyst is going to be ... oops the phone is ringing, gotta go get that.

MMK080 — Mon, 23 Apr 2007 19:52:00 -0000

Bravo. I could not have said it any better myself. Good job and nice to see an update on your blog again. an update which actually allows commenting (referring to the previous post about the customer service horror story where no one can comment).

From a person who is experiencing the excruciating pain it is to study this huge subject (193 pages of A4 like paper to read in half a week for trademarks & passing off is just insane), I would like to say it is the least subject I am interested to compared to the modules I am doing right now possibly because it is the most difficult. However, it is still by far better than any of the modules I took last year.

I was thinking of writing a post about the iPhone trademark debacle... but I haven't got around to finding free time to actually decide whether i should do it or not.

Re: Oman3D Interview with Latifah Al Said

MMK080 — Mon, 30 Apr 2007 13:59:00 -0000

Her paintings are beautiful! It is so nice to see a talented Gulf-Arab person these days. One which makes me think maybe there is still hope for Gulf-Arabs after all.

Wonderful layout for the interview on your site by the way.

Sounds interesting... Are the endings of the 8 short stories as lame as the ending his other book (JPod) ?

Re: My First Flash Lite Game

MMK080 — Sun, 15 Jul 2007 22:36:00 -0000

Impressive dude. I've been playing the game on my nokia phone (E61i) and it does not fill the screen which is a bummer but to be expected since it is an above average mobile screen size. But anyway what do the black dots that fall with the dates represent? coconuts perhaps? but palm trees do not have coconuts.

Anyway, really glad you are spending your time productively.

MMK080 — Tue, 24 Jul 2007 09:09:00 -0000

I got a score of 96. Really proud of that. I was a bit bummed because I really wanted to get a 3 digit number but that damn grape-let (do they call it that?) fell so fast.

Re: Cereal Crave

MMK080 — Fri, 10 Aug 2007 19:16:00 -0000

I actually discovered an amazing cereal called Fruit, Nuts, and Flakes made by Marks and Spencers. It is absolutely delicious. Never sold out either.

I might write a blog post about it and post a pic of the box.

MMK080 — Fri, 07 Sep 2007 09:19:00 -0000

I thought Ramadhan was spelled Ramadan :S

Anyway, I am already excited about the site.

MMK080 — Thu, 27 Sep 2007 22:13:00 -0000

That was ana amazing post Blue. Bravo. I for one, am quite the opposite. i find the number of different paths I can lead as truly frightening. What if I end up doing something I hate for the rest of my life?

I enjoyed your post, and admire your zest for life. Good luck in your adventure.

Re: KOM’s Seminar

I am very glad u has fun there! I am sure there are many more speeches u will have to make in the future and wish u all the best!

Re: Oman3D Podcast

MMK080 — Sun, 03 Feb 2008 13:10:00 -0000

I like the concept. It will very likely bring in more unique visitors ...

Just one small note; I really think there should be a back and forth between you and someone else when giving out the podcast, it will just make the podcast more lively.

Anyway, good job, wish you all the best.

"I do not want to blend with the rest of the crowd, get a job at a stupid oil company and just forget about it."

It is funny you mentioned that because recently I've been thinking about my future and something came up that is still uncertain and is very much in the "brewing stages". I am excited about this option that arose out of nowhere and nervous about taking it at the same time. if it ever comes to fruition with all the obstacles lifted, it would be an amazing work experience that will surely be of benefit to me in the future.

Here is me hoping only good things come from this.

P.S. This is the most cryptic comment I have ever made. I will reveal more to u bluechi once things actually become more "solid".

P.S.S. good job on reaching 400K.

Congrats dude!

Re: Chemical Orange Press Release?

MMK080 — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 03:43:00 -0000

I agree with u! it is totally understandable why you are angry and why u r voicing your disapproval about things posted in the media which makes you or your group (Chemical Orange) seem like you guys are something which you are not (liars or terrorists, for example)... It seems like I keep reiterating that point these last few days with.

Anyway, I hope this gets sorted out and on the bright side, your company got media recognition which can only be good for a business right?

Re: Chemical Orange on Nawras!

MMK080 — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 12:36:00 -0000

This is really gr8, U have induced a company to offer free bandwidth to try your games out, that is no easy feat!

Well done.

That's amazing, I've been meaning to ask you about that. I am glad you were able to help arrange his visit to MOLA, and I can only imagine how it would feel to meet your most favourite author in person.

And those cupcakes are better than the cupcakes I thought government ministery employees in Arab countries get, cuz for one thing, they seem edible...

Re: Intilaaqah @ SQU

MMK080 — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 13:46:00 -0000

Ridha... Hilarious. Seriously though, I am really happy that they chose you to make public speeches or lectures like that. Of all the friends I know, I think you are the only one who I would seriously consider going to a public lecture to hear him speak.

Re: Intilaaqah @ SQU

MMK080 — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 16:46:00 -0000

To be honest, I would love to do this type of thing. We'll see if anyone asks when I work back home in Qatar.

The speeches u made were in English right?

Re: Intellectual Property Day

MMK080 — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 00:52:00 -0000

I totally agree with you. It is up to people like us (people in the law field), to work from within to help develop this sorely lacking area in our legal system.

I have no idea where to start in addressing this issue though since I didnt even start work yet bas u might know since u work in MOLA and possibly have connections?

Also, I agree with diablo, "west stole algebra from us excuse..." is hilarious!

OMG! No way!! You saw the one and only superstar, Fakhriya Khamis!? The thought that someone I personally know was in the same building as Fakhriya... I think I am going to faint.

P.S. Did she play the mother in the fantastic Ajmal perfume commercial?

If not, then I've honestly never seen (or heard of) her before in my entire life.
