the rescue of the spoilt brats

My school is filled with rich kids, spoilt brats that like to rebel every now and then and break the law. Snowboarding, and skiing daily is a part of the winter term at my school, and yesterday was a day these 3 kids will never forget. They decided to go (off piste) on a black slope, which is the most difficult. 30 minutes late for check-in with their teacher, they call him crying for help. the evening was planned like so, (ski, dinner, prize giving for races last week, night ski). They got lost at the first block, around 4 pm, and were found through a chopper rescue at 9. Can you imagine how scared these 15 year olds were :P? well, they are all alive and well, but will be punished severely because going off slope is a serious offense to the school rules. I shared this with you because i shot a video of the chopper landing 15 meters away from us after they had been found, very dramatic, yes. People were clapping and cheering though, my hat goes of to the rescue workers who did this in very little visibility because of the fog, during the night. 

funny thing however, chopper rescues start at 10,000 francs= 2,500Kd 

Update: the bill will be 21,000 CHF distributed equally amongst the three students. thats around 1,765 Kd per student ... damn

The Oscars (opening)

I did not get to watch the oscars, but the opening was created by a genius

new blog (kuwaiti style)

i have a new project in the making. Basically, three years ago, i had very little sense of style, moda, interest in appearance, health, and very out of date. Over the duration of the last sumer, and most of the last 3 months in 2008, i spent time reading, exploring what i like, who i really am, and most important of all, i made a promise to myself. CHANGE, was the main thing on my mind, the first project was to loose weight, and i did. I now adopt a more healthy lifestyle of absolutely no drinking, and VERY little smoking (one shisha a month). With a lot of trial and error, and after living in europe for 3 years, i have become more interested in what is around me as well. 

this new project vows to help out the average kuwaiti guy learn what's in for casual wear, formal clothing, what's new in technology, what look is back in (retro and whatnot), the newest accessories, health tips, investment tips, where to buy in kuwait, some items for sale, and a lot of giveaways. changing the way i am has made me happier, healthier, more self confident, and (luckier). 

I don't expect to be the next GQ or the kuwaiti version of it, however, something of the likes. 

the first post which i will write up as soon as i have the time, is about the ideal diet for the healthy teen to midage young man. one diet will be for the average man, and the other will be for the muscle builders. 

stick around for more. 

Emailing while asleep

 The mails themselves were perhaps not up to the woman’s waking standard; each was in a random mix of upper and lower case characters, badly formatted and containing odd expressions. One read: “Come tomorrow and sort this hell hole out. Dinner and drinks, 4.pm. Bring wine and caviar only.” Another said simply: “What the…” 

The writers of the report have dubbed this new variation of sleepwalking ‘zzz-mailing’. They say: “We believe writing an email after turning the computer on, connecting to the Internet and remembering the password displayed by our patient is novel. To our knowledge this type of complex behaviour requiring coordinated movements has not been reported before in sleepwalking. She was shocked when she saw these emails, as she did not recall writing them. She did not have any history of night terr ors or sleepwalking as a child.”

Benny Benassi

I'm in love with Bennasi's new hits. they are not that new, but somehow i haven't heard of them. Here is one of my favorites

2009 E class coupe

Ok so the E class was released not so long ago, but wait? what is that? they have a coupe edition? yes, a whole new concept. I must say, they have done a good job with the car. I like the C class quite a lot, and hit has some of that in it. The headlamps are for some reason uncorrelated, which makes it seem like mercedes tried to hard to come up with a new style. the contours along the side are very attractive, whether they were put there for aerodynamics or not. The car will get the same engine treatment as the rest of the mercedes' out there, 4, 6, and 8 cylinders.
Here is the question though, why a coupe of the E class, when you have one for the C, the CL, SL, SLK, and CLK? would you make a coupe out of the equivalent 5 series BMW? Thats where things start looking clearer. You see what i think is that MB realized that BMW is making a hell-ova profit from the 3 series coupe, which is why this looks quite similar.
all in all however, i see it as a better looker than the beamer 335i (still, M3 all the way)

New phone

I do admit that i have a mild-serious case of technology addiction. I got the E71 in during the summer, but i was reassured that Nokia still don't have the user friendliness of other phones out there. Every time i pick my phone up, i'm like oh biggie!
The iphone is a lot of phone with its thousands if not hundreds of thousands of apps. The camera is not amazing, but other than that, the web browser, wifi, 3g, and music is all excellent. However i had purchased a 16gb touch 2nd generation.
The blackberry bold was the second on my list, which would be the ideal substitute to my e71. The bbm service is what attracted me the most. It's kind of like messaging 24/7 with a fixed cost. I do need that since I'm rarely in kuwait. It has most of the good stuff in e71, if not all, but i will be getting the bbm.

this is where i am stuck, should i stick to my phone, get the blackberry, or just get a NORMAL phone to act to the purpose it was fit for ?

this is where i live and im bored of it
