I can’t even open a single page without waiting forever for it to load up!

Is there something wrong with the internet? I’m writing this using my blackberry (yeah that’s how slow the net is!).

Anyway I hope this thing doesn’t persist.

Update: It seems the problem is fixed now.

We were in Al Somman a couple of weeks ago and one of my friends got his car stuck in the sand on top of a hill. We got bored up there, so Bo9ale7 went to the kitchen and brought this round thing and Skied. It went wrong every single time Read the rest of this entry »

Just found out that Coca cola just changed their cans to celebrate the Valentine! BTW it’s not released in Kuwait yet.

I was in Al Jabriya earlier today and happened to pass by the new Early Bird branch. I saw the owner, Bianca, outside and she told me the opening is on Monday and that it’ll have the same working hours as the one in Fahaheel; Monday to Saturday from 5am to 3pm and off on sundays.

It’s in Al Jabriyah near Champion’s Gym. Here is their location on map.

We just had club sandwiches for breakfast and it was very good. It had Sara lee turkey in it, along with eggs, mayo, cheese, and tomato slices. It makes for a great snack.

^ It tasted better than it looks 😛

Available at Sultan center. We had the honey roasted flavor.

Finally we found it, it’s  back in our co-op, they brought it back! if you dont know what is Mazza Mango then the answer will be… the best mango juice in Kuwait.

Thanks INM

Me and ½ cream milk were having dinner at Johnny Rockets in Salmiya. We were sitting on one of the tables next to the bar when we saw a lady coming in and start talking to a guy on the bar. We were pretty sure the guy did not know her, he was in a bit of an awkward position. We did not pay any attention and continued enjoying our rocket burgers… till we heard the word Blogger!

All of our senses came to life and we found ourselves trying so hard to eavesdrop you’d think somebody’s life depended on it!

Yeah turned out we were sitting next to Moey (Hi Moey)

This gotta be the most overzealously generous person to have ever existed. Or just plain crazy!

My friend was at harrods yesterday and he took the picture above. It is of apples with heart shaped birthmarks on them for Valentines.

Harrods have commissioned farmers in france to grow these specially customized apples to bear heart shaped imprints on them. The apples will be sold for ₤3 each, and all the proceeds will be donated to a children hospital.

Are you wondering how did they do it? Are you thinking genetic studies and huge amount of money spent? I was thinking the same thing, but I was way off, coz all they did was, the french farmers that is, they placed a heart shaped sticker on the apples during cultivation.

Thanks M7

Remember when I posted before about the Avocado juice in Kaifan Juice, well today Ali found out that they’ve opened a second branch, this time in Hawali, next to Alhomathi complex.

Thanks Ali

They’re custom made, and you can order 3 of them as a set. That is possible if you’re ready to wait for 3 weeks to get them, coz they’re custom made. I guess if you’re that in love with your iPhone, you’ll be willing to wait for 3 weeks to get em 😉

UPDATE: its working now.

Some cool guys from Al-iPhone came up with this really cool idea, They made some of best clips with some of the famous songs available on iTunes, Kuwait’s store only.

Yeah I don’t know why Somecontrast got hacked and what was behind the hacking but thank God the hacker did not delete our database and none of our files were damaged. And thanks to our good friends Nasser & Hamad from Blog37 we were able to get the site back and running.

We wanted to get Somecontrast up and running as soon as we can, but us being the illiterate bloggers that we are when it comes to programing and coding and the likes, we were helpless. But thats behind us now. We’ve recharged and we’re back with a vengeance!

Thanks to all who asked and emailed us. We appreciate each one of you. We missed you guys.

My friend and I wanted to buy good pillows for some time now but we didn’t know where to look, the best we could do was IKEA, all my pillows are from there and I wanted something different. She also needed a new mattress as she noticed signs of air mattress leak. We went to a couple of places before deciding to go to Tilal complex, and thats how we came across the ads for https://sleepify.co/ghostbed-mattress-review/ which took all our attention right until the point where we found The Bed Boutique.

It has a big collection of bed pillows and the best mattress for back pain, they’re so diverse. I use the word diverse because before going to The Bed Boutique, we were at The American Mattress, and their collection was disappointing. All of their pillows were kinda the same, the pillows doesn’t differ much and their prices were exaggerated.

Back to the Bed Boutique. They have a little room where you can try all of their pillows while having lots of privacy. The room is tiny and has one king size bed. The sales person actually encourages the customers to kick back and relax in that room and use it as long as they want, and take their time to decide which pillow to go for. I tried multiple pillows before deciding on their Tempur pillow.

The Tempur pillow I got is called Symphony, and it’s for KD44. It’s not cheap. You can get it online for KD30, but it’s heavy so I don’t know how much you’ll end up saving after paying the shipping costs.

It’s my 3rd night using the pillow and I’m enjoying it so far. It feels like a memory foam pillow at first, but it’s not, it’s different and much more comfier. You have to try it out if you’re looking for a pillow.

The Bed Boutique is at Tilal complex, Shuwaikh.

Sometimes I just want to take a knife and rip my tonsils out with my hands and slit them off.

I’ve been sick on and off for over a month. It started with my birthday, and I’ve been having throat pains for a month now. I think I had 7 days without pains throughout the past month. i’ve gone through many strepsils and Chloraseptics and the damned thing isn’t going away!

Since I was little this throat thing have been my thing. I wanted to get rid of the tonsils 2 years ago and I went to a prominent Kuwaiti doctor, forgot his name, and he gave me a bunch of meds, but nothing helped. I remember him saying:

1-you gotta keep your nasal passages clear by using a drop (contains cortisone), you can’t have them blocked, coz thats when you get sore throats, when you overuse your mouth for breathing.

2-You’ve got to know how to sneeze, and thats by avoiding harsh exhales (I don’t know how he said exactly, but it was something along “latishla3 bala3eemik wenta ta36is”)

He didn’t do much. He then told me that even if we decided to remove your tonsils, that won’t solve the problem, you’d still get sore throat if the cause wasn’t totally your tonsils. Whatever thats supposed to mean.

I didn’t use any antibiotics till yesterday, I had to.

I might go to another doctor and see what I can do with my tonsils.

For those who are newly married, if you’re a gadget geek and want a wedding ring, then I think you’re going to love this. The Gear Ring, designed by Kinekt Design, is made of stainless steel. The real geeky thing about these rings gottabe the rotating gears.

You can get those in HERE for KD 47.5

Thanks Ahmad

Aramex just sent me an email telling that they have changed their pricing structure and they began with the heavy packages which weight above 10kgs they will offer 30% discount on the total shipping charges, the question is what if I got lets say 3 packages and their total weight is above 10kgs? do I get a discount? or it has to be single package?
