beautiful love....because i like the song, it always make me smile
after dubai.....this place is drab. but then it has always been.
went out on friday night with some friends. it was a long drive. a place called um-al-quaim(i think i got it spelt right, hm..who cares) anyways. its beautiful. we get our beers and then head to the pier/jetty. this is nice, cuz everytime a boat passes by it rocks and its cold out there. damn no sea monsters or the like. and i kept staring into the dark expanse hoping for something. there this tiny island some distance away. renting a room is affordable, considering the entire club is owned by a sheikh. after we leave my friends tell in me of the tallest building in uaq, known as the tower of uaq. we drivin and suddenly the guys scream"there it is!there it is!!" in the middle of the all that desolation and sand there stands in all its glory a five storey building -
the tower of uaq.
the trip back to kuwait was uneventful. no turbulence, no food and thankfully nobody sitting next to me. i didnt get any food cuz i fell asleep when the stewardess came round. damn. humph!! like i missed a 7 course meal. {yawn}.
at the passport counter, the doofus was like "you're rod?" in a surprised tone. {no im al pacino, who do i look like idiot?} but i said "yes". dont want to get on his bad side. they dont have any good sides anyways.
last night after work, i head straight to my usual weekend haunt. and theres police and large crowds. im thinking"RIOT!!"
dreams and hopes dashed! it was the first day of a festival called 'hala febriar'. blah. i was told this is kuwaits equivalent to the dubai shopping festival. it was just an excuse for people to litter the streets. and believe me when i say amchi mumbai looks a lot cleaner after these people ran amok on the streets.
ho-hum theres got to be more to life than all of this. and by all of this i mean nothing. just waiting for may. hmm, not much there either. and there aint much boob in my turkey boob sandwich. well at least the donuts are fine.
a dybiaist.... arhosa yn meddwl a ca bacia at gweithia!
If at first you do not succeed, then skydiving definitely is not for you.
