Souls are Worthless to Some People!



Street Terrorism, Done by Alaa Almaktoom, outstanding work! he wrote:
"إهداءً لروح عماد ابن خالي رحمه الله وغفر له، الذي توفي بسبب حادث مروري.
"الغاية من الفيلم توعوية. وقد تم الحرص على عرض المشكلة بطرق مبتكرة تسعى للفت الانتباه والتأثير في النفوس
وكل الأمل في أن تلتقي رسالة الفيلم مع مصلحة بلدنا الذي نتمنى له الأفضل، وأن تشجعنا على إيقاف هذه المجزرة.

"علاء المكتوم

May Allah rest his cousins soul, all our loved ones souls inshallah :(
Please... post it, write about it, email it, let your family and friends watch it.
if this doesnt convince people to be more careful i dont know what will!!
its utter insanity what were going through..


please people please, drive safely, responsibly and stop being selfish.

Update - Cincscape Replied!!

"Dear Cinescape-ER,

We thank you for your email.

We have recently applied the Bachelor nights which has been a great success in allowing the Bachelors to sit in any seat in the theatre instead of having the bottom half of the screen as it use to be.

Moms Day will need to be studied and analyzed and we promise we will do our best to implement it in Kuwait Theatres.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us again if you have any further suggestions or comments.

Cinescape Team"

Big Thank you goes to Mr.Ali Al-Oqab and the entire team of Cinescape :)

Worth a try.. Dear Cinescape..


Dear Cinescape,
Alsalam,

Hope your all well, i'm sending you this email as a young mother that enjoys going to the movies. ever since i had my child, i no longer have the time to see movies anymore, because it is difficult for me, and many other moms i know, to leave their kids just to go see a movie. it requires lots of energy and time.

i moved to the United States 2 years ago, and i have discovered many great things about this country concerning facilities. one of them is how much they appreciate and respect mothers (parents). they always give them privileges and means to show their appreciation. one of the things.. which is VERY simple .. is having a special "MOMMY MORNING DAY" @ the theater. the theater i go to have Mommy days on every Monday at 11 am. i go there with my son and enjoy a movie with out worrying about people; whether they get upset or not, because of his crying or because of his running around .. everyone enjoys the movie just like they are at home with their kids. all the families feel happy with their kids instead of anxious or worried over disturbing other viewers. or feeling guilty for leaving them behind.

because of "Mommy Day" I made sure I go once a week to see a movie with my son, i get to meet soo many other mothers there and my son got to meet other kids as well .. some parents sitting on blankets with their kids crawling around, my son would stand on his chair to jump and dance when ever there was a song! they also provide a changing table inside the theater for a quick convenient diaper change. its a great experience for everyone!

i kept thinking how much I will miss this once I move back to Kuwait because there isn't such a thing. I then realized how simple and great the idea is .. anyone can apply it. all you need is one day! At a certain time to dedicate for mothers and their children .. don't they deserve the care and attention? don't they deserve 2 hours in a day or week? and it will also be great for the company's image .. it will show how you appreciate mothers, parenting and kids.

one thing i may add if you ever consider doing this .. to make only one condition.. that only family's are allowed in, no nannies or maids .. because that will ruin the concept and ppl will not want to go anymore. if it was just families who can bring kids .. it will be amazing fun for all (bonding) should be the goal of this day.

I'm very sorry for my long email but I really wish you get the idea that I am trying to convey.. I will be leaving you with a few links to show you how it works here .. a great role model a kuwaiti mother named Jumana Alawadi just published something about this on her blog .. i'm sure this will be a great hit in Kuwait if its ever applied in the right way!

thank you for your time.

this is Jumanas post: http://organickuwait.blogspot.com/2010/05/movies-for-moms-and-dads-too.html

thanks again
will be looking forward to your reply

I sent them this email yesterday .. inshallah! u never know, im a hopeful person :)

Finales Crazy Week!

-safe to read, no spoilers-

why all in one week!!
this is too much .. not just finales .. two of the shows i watch got canceled!! i think finales week is simply depressing .. they always try to depress/shock us with cliffhangers, its just too stressful!

Gossip Girls finale.. i have to admit that the show got really bad, sometimes i feel guilty for still watching it! the only reason for that is i think most ppl would agree on this is the chuck/blair story .. and blairs wardrobe!! ;p the finale was heart breaking :( but Serena is getting on my nerves with her skanky too tight outfits! and wish she could wear a bra for a change lol! and jenny always always irritated the hell out of me! everything about her is simply revolting!! her skinny legs! the way she walks and talks ... and whats with her hair and makeup!!! :/ "etsaba7aaaay!!!"


Greys anatomys finale.... i still get jitters by just remembering it .. was one of the most intense finales i have ever watched .. i literally wasnt able to move, or breathe!! they killed me.. i couldnt even cry i just wanted it over. it was waaay OVER the top! but hands down the acting was sublime! they all did an amazing job! i see Emmys!! ;)
and like the writer said after what happened to them next season is going to be a blank slate to all of them! so we can expect anything now!


LOST! the master of all tv shows .. the show ive been watching since 2004! is coming to a real end, many complained that this season wasnt as strong and dramatic as the rest, what they seem to forget is this is a wrap up season where questions get answered, and where plots come to an end.. thats why it seems more calm and less insane! i love how all the seasons are connecting in this one, theyre answering to things, small things, that happened in season one! and making sense out of it in this one, which only proves the genius of the writers!!! out standing imagination
i have noticed that the actors in general seemed worn off , they look older and simply tired in this season and i dont blame them its really difficult keeping up with everything theyve been doing. they all stated theyre soo happy its coming to and end and they can move on now. i just cant imagine no more jack on tv lol ill sure miss this show. cant wait for the finale but at the same time i dont it to end :(


the show tha got canceled "Mercy" its about nurses and their lives in hospital. a nurse once said "doctors diagnose patients and we treat them" which is true .. and they dont get enough credit for it. the show was really really good .. but didnt get enough ratings, the killed it from season one! they didnt even bother air the finale! how rude is that. im still upset :/ they really didnt give the show a chance to create a base of fans .. atleast two seasons wouldve been fair. anyways id still recommend watching it, it was a really good show!

let me end with the most adorable video ever! where u combine total hotness/hunkness with cuteness!! ;)




enough tv .. just felt like venting and sharing my opinions :p
so what are u watching?

ps. i finally got rid off the GREEN! template it took me 4 years but i did it ;)

things they leave behind


i still remember her phone number by heart,
its not one of those easey numbers to remember! i once asked her:
"esh,hal raqam! makintoosh!!? :p " and she said .. "who cares ppl save ur nomber no one will know it by heart"
little did she know that 6 years later i still remember it.. digit by digit ..
i have dialed the numbers a few times.. to have some stranger pick up.. everytime i feel like crying over the phone, but i simply apologize and hangup.

when will any of this get easier on my heart and memory. her face and voice arent as vivid as they used to be .. but theyre still there. sub7an allah the thing that i remember the strongest is the way she smelled. which ill never find anywhere else.. i got her perfumes and body lotions but its not that, its her warmth.

why writing about her alone makes me smile and happy :)
maybe because i feel like were connecting .. 7abeebty..
again "yumma" i miss you o i need u right now more than ever .. so please ..
be kind enough o give me a visit.. i really really need to see you its been very long since u last did.

love u :*
