Well.. as some of you know I was in Geneva home alone and posting about 3 times a day.. and all of a sudden I stopped, the reason was that my friends arrived in Geneva and we started actually doing stuff. we went to Italy for a day to watch a soccer game between Juventus and Livorno  “not sure about the spelling”. here are pictures from the trip.
On the way to Italy:

Before I left Kuwait I managed to finish the 5 seasons of MONK! the show is amazing and i can’t get enough of it! i’m currently downloading the released episodes of season 6 from iTunes…. OH YEAH !! I finally started using iTunes which means the Apple TV will soon be purchased … Another toy

I loved the changed of assistant it gave the show a chance to play around more with the characters and I still think that a new assistant will be on the way … MONK’s neighbor maybe??

Update about the i’m watching now. I Finished watching The Office seasons 1 and 2 in Kuwait and i’m watching season 3 here in Geneva. will post something about it when i’m done watching the 3 seasons. (but I definitely think it’s an amazing show!)

Here is how it started.. at the airport while my friend and I were trying to check in we found out that his visa isn’t valid before the 23rd of august. so I had to leave alone. I get to Geneva around 8 or 8:30pm.. by the time I got home it was around 9.. So i take a shower and ran to the kitchen to find that we have nothing to eat because my family threw everything before they left and of course the damn French people close every thing at 9 so no chance of going to the super market.

the one thing I found was a dozen of escargots that can be prepared in 9 minutes! those things are damn good, take a look for your self….

Now I kill sometime by going to Geneva for a bit and then back to the house to watch The Office and chat with friends until I finally slept at 4 am I think.

Today I wake up at 1pm and I saw this.. this is Geneva from the terrace at out house.. beautiful view!

The view really made my day.. so I jumped in the shower and headed out to the supermarket to buy alot of stuff and then walked around the mall for a bit before I went back home to enjoy the view with some real food. And thats about the 1st day so far.. I will update it if I do anything later on

Yesterday a journalist and blogger Bashar Alsayegh was arrested by the Kuwaiti Secret Police in front of their work and escorted using unwanted force to one of their facilities blindfolded. Along with Bashar; Jassin Alqames was arrested and released after a day (7imdila 3ala el-salama).

Bashar as far as I know is still imprisoned and I hope he’s ok and wish to see him back with his family ASAP.

THIS IS BAD! REALLY REALLY BAD!

For more information follow up on the updates either on Al-Jarida’s Website or Q8SWS

I guess my blog will be censored sometime in the future, they seem to be going toward that direction.

Today at 11:30am I start my trip! here is the plan…

We are going to start the trip in Geneva for a little more than a week, it’s going to be one hell of a start for the trip.. we are planning to drive around between Geneva (swiss), France, and Italy until the 28th of August. on the 28th we will head to Amsterdam for about 4 nights or until the 1st of September. Then we head to out Rotterdam for our internship at Robeco which will last until the 23rd of November.

I’m excited about the trip. the vacation part should be amazing and lots of fun with the guys… and i’m even happier because of the experience i’m going to be getting at the internship.

Wish me the best people! and I hope the best for my colleagues at the training program in their internships in London, Frankfurt, and Boston.

Updates about the trip and the internship will be posted hopefully as much as I hope for

A new traffic speeding camera has been installed on Damascus street. the camera is not yet functional and that is proved by my radar detector (Passport 8500) and by testing with my car doing about 140kmph.

I would love to update on the functionality of the camera but I’m leaving on Monday so if the camera isn’t activated by tomorrow I Apologize that I won’t be able to make this update.

Locations of the camera:

Damascus street, between Alrawdha (on your right) and Alodailiya (on your left) if you are heading towards 3rd ring road.

I received an email from a friend at work and it’s pretty interesting. the website is called the world clock, what it does basically is provide some live information such as the world’s population, births, deaths, internet users, and so forth. just some chaning number about the world.

There are some rumors and it sure can be true some people felt some sort of earthquake activities.  Please someone confirm that. and I’m sure it’s nothing serious because I didn’t even feel it.
