I never ever witnessed such a storm in Kuwait! Watch until the end of the video and you’ll be shocked. It happened last Friday! Watch the video:

Me and my teammate are suppose go out that night and take some video shots of pollution in our environment for the Imagine Cup competition. Well, it came right on us like hell. Shit, I never imagine something like this can hit Kuwait! So I picked up the phone and called my teammate to take a video shot.

Mother nature is pissed! What have we done? What have we done! Climate change is affecting the whole world, even here in Kuwait.

This storm lasted for like 10min but lots of damage left behind. Next year, maybe a freaking tsunami hurricane or maybe volcano! Who knows! Shit happens when it is unexpected.

More videos of the storm can be found here.

Global warming is a danger issue we are facing on earth. All of us, including you, we are contributing in the destruction of earth with our daily life. We all feel the change in the climate but poor countries as in mid-Africa are mostly affected by the climate change. Hell, now its is spring and the temprature is about 40 Celius here in Kuwait.

I’m taking part in Earth Hour 2008 and I strongly recommend all of you to do the same.

Turn off your light at 8pm for an hour in March 29

For more information about the event, visit my personal web page of Earth Hour 2008. And here’s a video about Earth Hour 2008:

So you did something special for your mother? Bought a flower? Built a statue? Kidnapped the president?

Whatever you did I hope it pleased her

Okay, Wednesday (March 12, 2008) was hell of a day. I had to do 4 things in 1. As the picture explains either attend Microsoft 2008 Launch Day event, IT seminar by Eng Manar AlHashash, go in a meeting schedule with my “Super Coder” team mates in Kuwait Science Club, or read my feeds (It can be delayed though, it got delayed).

I finally decided not to go to the meeting since my team mates can do it without me. I also had to skip half of the Microsoft event because I HAD to attend a seminar that we organized it. So my Schedule went like this:

8:00am – 9:15am: Electronics lecture

9:15am – 9:45am: Wasted time waiting for my friend Hassan who forgotten to charge his cell phone! He called me 30min late telling me that he went home after lecture to recharge the phone and call me! So I told him to meet me and Mohammed Ghazall in the event area.

10:10am – 11:45am: Attended Developer Track seminar titled “Break Through Challenges with Visual Studio 2008″.

12:30pm – 2:45pm: I.T seminar in campus.

3:10pm – 3:30pm: McDonalds! Me and Mohammad.

3:45pm – 5:15pm: Attended the Microsoft event in seminar titled “IIS 7 for the Developer” and “Raffle Draw/ Closing”. Funny that my supervisor Dr. Thalaya Al-Fozan won a prize on the draw, but he wasn’t there so they canceled it.

5:45pm – 7pm: Arrived late to my CCNA-2 class.

7:30pm – 8:30pm: Finally at home, extremely exhausted and wasted. Catching my breath and getting ready for whatever comes next.

8:30pm – 2:30am: Done my homework and studies.

3:00am – 6:30am: Sleeping… sleeping… sleeping…

Wednesday… What a day eh?… truly hell of a day!

What’s the point of this post? None… just wanted to write something.

I have been busy lately with many projects and stuff I’m doing as you can see the number of post in my blog has been reduced in last couple of months. One of the things I’m working on is Imagine Cup competition which will be held soon. We have named our team “Super Coders” which was suggested by me . I always wanted name my team with that name since the ICPC competition which was named by our Coach… sadly. There are two teams from Kuwait University and the name of the other team is “Superlevelers”.

My team partners are Hassan and Amtar and we are all authunsiase toward the competition. We are working hard to get it done in short time period because we have started the real work 2 weeks ago and we got about 1.5 week to submit the written proposal. We have implicitly divided our work and it seem that our team is working good and coherently. Amtar has been visiting various institution and companies to collect information about the project we are working on. Hassan is reading and following up whatever information Amatar finds and helps her. And I have been trying to get done with learning SilverLight as our project will heavily depends on it. Not to mention that I have to read/learn every information they collect. Me and Hassan are also currently working in the written proposal.

I have decided to Twitter in my blog and I’ll keep updating it with what I’m doing. It is in the right sidebar of the blog and I hope you guys like it.

I can update what I’m doing by mobile phone sms, email, Google talk, or by Twitter.com which is really convenient. I think I’m going to use talk indoors mostly and sms if I’m outside somewhere.

This is a test post… I’m using Microsoft Live Writer.

In a nutshell: Israel bombard his home which collapsed over his family. His baby got killed… it is really hard even for me to keep my tears…

Nothing special. I just want to point out that there is 29th in February this year because it is a leap year dudes! So tomorrow will be 29th of February. If your birthday is on 29th, I really feel sorry for you, although celebrating birthday is not a big deal!

Do I make sense you ask?
Well, probably no!
