Why are USWS trying their best to do a bad job?! today i found one more thing to add to their list of flaws. 9K2HN told me the other day that something was up with USWS’ exchange rates, so today when I was paying my bill I noticed my bill was $41 and when converted by them it was KD12.71.

I did the calculations and it turned out they’re using a rate of 0.31 for all of their exchanges!! Guys the exchange rate nowadays is 0.261! (check the pic above USD1 = KD0.261) waain ga3deeen?! mo chethy ashkara 3ad!

Finally my Blackberry 8320 arrived! I received it today from USWS (BTW They SUCK! from the time they moved to their new location everything got messed up!) Before i got it, I went to Zain and subscribed with them, It costs KD14 for local usage with 1 GB download, if you exceed it you’ll be charged 2 fils for each MegaByte, which means every GB will cost you KD2). The international package is 28kd a month.

Whats comes in the box:

• Blackberry 8320.
• USB cable.
• Charger.
• Hands free.
• CD & manuals.

I ordered a charging pod which looks so sexy! Its coated with chrome, I really love it!

Just for the record, I bought mine for only KD125 and ZAIN are selling the older model of this BB the one without wifi for KD238 and its out of stock now. What a rip off! I’ve also installed the arabic fonts and now I’m able to read Arabic messages and websites.

over all i’m giving it 4.5/5 (due to its perfect functions!). It keeps you busy all the time 😛

If you’re thinking of attending Mariah or Fergie’s concerts in Dubai on the 15th and 16th of May, respectively, then you should sign up for the tickets right now and get on that waitlist they’ve put up. I’m not sure why they’re offering a waitlist option for those events, usually waitlists are for unconfirmed events.. wait a minute.. *Gasps*

Anyway, Here is the LINK, go reserve your tickets and they’ll contact you as soon as they become available for sale.

buona fortuna Y’all 😛

Thanks to 9K2HN

Thanks INM.

A few months ago INM decided to add some flavor to his MB so he did some search and ended up in this site which specialized in laptop avatars, or laptop skins as some call it. They have many categories like nature, sports among others. He decided to go with the zebra and this is what he got.

Its a real nice sticker for the back of your laptop’s screen, printed in a real high quality material. esara7a i didnt expect it to look this good. it looked like it was fixed there by a professional.

Thanks INM.

Mariah is doing a concert in Dubai in around 2 weeks, on the 15th of May to be specific, followed by a concert by Fergie on the 16th.

“Music fans can enjoy a double helping of diva in Dubai with confirmed concert dates for the world’s number one-selling female artist Mariah Carey and former Black Eyed Peas Fergie.

Universal Music has this week confirmed the world-renowned artists will perform at Dubai Festival City with back-to-back concerts on May 15 and 16.

Promoting her new album, E=MC², which this week hit the top of the Billboard charts, Carey will perform first on Thursday, May 15, followed by Fergie the following evening.

Ticket prices have not yet been announced but are expected to go on sale online at either www.timeouttickets.com or www.showbizme.com from tomorrow.

Rebecca Brianceau, of Universal, Dubai, said the label was extremely excited to be bringing two such wonderful artists to Dubai back-to-back. “We are so excited about the concerts and cannot wait to welcome the ladies to the UAE. We are expecting great things on both nights.”

The venue holds a capacity crowd of 15,000 and tickets for both concerts are expected to sell out in a matter of days.”

As of now, if all went well and nothing serious stood in my way, I’ll be going o chinnnnnnaa il3eeeeeeed! 😀

My friend had this nice ice cream (above) in italy last summer and it looked really special mostly coz of the novelty factor imo.

Thank you loco for the 1st pic and Kuwait & FoOD for the 2nd pic.

Edit:

Its in Hawally near GUST and its called 3alam il ice cream (Ice cream world). “they say its not as good as it looks.”

Thank you Om FasoOoL for the information 🙂

This is the tracking section in my dashboard. Do you know whats the best part of ordering something online?  It’s when you track it to your mailbox and once it’s in there you start calling Aramex or USWS and start annoying them to ship it! amoooot 3al 7annaa ana ! 😛

The Crêpe Café will be opening soon in Kuwait. Its a crêperie that serve pancakes, waffles, crêpes as well as omelets. Their food and desserts revolve around crêpes.

Opening soon in 2 locations:

• Avenues Mall – May 2008 (Phase 2 i think).
• Raya Plaza – July 2008.

Esara7a I didn’t try them before but im going to give them a shot inshallah when they open.

Remember few months ago i posted the estimated price of our domain? our domain was worth a mere $100 just back then, guess how much it increased?! 😛 😛 ITS $2,010! we doubled.. ay doubled! multiply by 20!

Thank you Fahad.

Its the port number! Change the port number!

I called Zain many times even went to their branches and talked to lots of sales agents and their technical support department.. All with no luck of finding a solution to the not being able to receive emails through email clients (Outlook, Mail…etc) problem.

This weekend when we were talking about this problem, Hamad told me something about changing the port, then Khalid told me that he’s been using Ego with no such problem, He also said something about the port number. Finally he gave me the port number he’s been using and.. just like that.. it worked!

My Gmail, Mac and personal domain all worked with outgoing server port #587. 😀

Thanks a lot Khalid!

I came back from the shalaih around 6pm and was exhausted from racing and avoiding cars on Fhaiheel highway. I went directly to my room to find this bag on the ground near the door, I looked at it and didn’t know what it is, I assumed it belonged to Mom so I went to bed and lied down. As I was lying there I kept looking at the bag near the door, it looked familiar, I can read Kodak and I see Ashraf is written there too.. “what a coincidence! I was there just 2 days ago” I thought. Then suddenly my eyes 😯 as it sunk in, and in less than a second I found myself standing over the bag looking down, trying to take a peek at whats inside.

It was gift-wrapped and backpack-shaped! This means that someone read my post and in less than 48 hours bought the bag for me, wrapped it and sent it??? 😀 I wanna know who did this! I took it out and placed it on the bed, there was a little note there, I read it and suddenly felt very ill, then hot, then plain embarrassed.

Someone at Ashraf read my post (I wonder who that might be? 😛 ) and was nice enough to go out of their way and send me this amazing gift.

I love it. And I really really appreciate it 🙂 Thank you so much!!
