If Only I Were a Spider Monday, Jul 14 2008 

Spiders, they just eat, mate, nest, and occasionally they fight for surviving.

You see, they eat whatever there is to eat, and they build homes out of their bodies. They do not need money to do so, nor a way to get that money. Spiders do not know the wicked nor the evil, they do not feel happy nor they grieve. If another spider dies, they go on with their lives. Spiders mate randomly for they do not know love, nor they know what a heartbreak is.

Spiders live their lives by the day, they are living, they have eaten, and so they call it a day. And they sleep actually well, because they do not have nightmares, hell they do not even know what a nightmare is.

After all that, they die peacefully, unremembered. But it suits them well, because they lived their lives unremembered and so on they die unremembered. For them life is fair enough.

We, we strive and kill for money, and when we get it, still is not enough. We work hard knowing life is not fair, yet we work harder. When someones dies, we grieve and feel sad, we love and we are loved. Sometimes we are sad, others we are not. We build and we construct, we demolish and we corrupt, we love and we hate, we kill and we create. We make mistakes and we learn, we teach and we guide. We give less than what we take, and still is not enough.

We live and we die. As spiders, we die unremembered.

What Color Are You? Friday, Jul 11 2008 

I did three ones, and they all gave me the same answer:


Take the Magic: The Gathering ‘What Color Are You?’ Quiz.

Blue? Seriously, BLUE?! They are bloody wrong, my colour is Black, BLACK I AM BLACK, not blue! :mad:

Anyway, how is the new look? It is cool right?!

YES YES, I am bored out of my mind and have nothing to do!

The 6 secrets Tag Monday, Jul 7 2008 

So I was tagged by Diana on this secret tag, here.

I guess I am supposed to tell you, strange people, 6 things about me that you do not know, and would not know in case we met. (Fat chance for the meeting part :P)

1) I notice everything. I might look that I am a bit careless about my surrounding, but believe me when I say I do notice every single thing around me.

2) I tend to analyze people. Like if we met for example, I would start analyzing every word you say, every move, everything you do. But wait, that is not the creepy part yet. The creepy part is that I am 99.9% right most of the time. :D

3) I am not really optimistic, I am the anti-positive attitude guy. If something goes wrong, yes it WILL be the end of the world for me.

4) I play guitar. Electric guitar that is. But now I am running on an acoustic one because I sold the electric a while ago! Hey, I do play guitar but I am not a master in it. :P

5) I am an Arabic poetry fan. I even have my own collection of paper scrapes from newspapers and from my copybooks back in school.

6) I tend to think A LOT, and the result of that is a nervous me.

So that is all about it folks, I will not tag anyone, and this time do not tag yourself if you feel like it.

Diablo III Tuesday, Jul 1 2008 

I cannot, no no let me rephrase that. I CAN-NOT believe my eyes, is it real? Is what I see real? DIABLO III before my eyes… GOOD GOD! They have announced it for real. PEOPLE, Diablo III is on the way.

The teaser is just amazing, check it out:

.

The gates of hell are opened once again…

AND THE HEAVENS SHALL TREMBLE.

I could not be more happier. :twisted:

Still, My Champions Monday, Jun 30 2008 

On Patience Saturday, Jun 28 2008 

I want that star,
I want it now,
I want it all
and I do not care how.

That was from a song by Metallica called King Nothing; and that how I was.

You see, ever since I was a little kid, and when I wanted something, it meant I WANT it. And of course I used to have it. Maybe because I am a Scorpio? I do not believe in such things, but they say when a Scorpio wants something, he/she gets it no matter what.

So we know now that patience was not a virtue of mine—as if I have another thousand! But during the course of the last year, that has changed, and I have learnt how to be patient. Not that it was a decision of my own, but I had to. I had to wait for months and months, and still waiting actually.

I guess waiting becomes easier with time, you know, you become more blatant for the whole matter, and you just learn how to shut your mind!

Anyway, that was just a thought for the time being, nothing to do… boredom is killing me!

By the way, Germany is going home with the cup, believe me on that one.

So… have a nice day people.

Those Crack Me Up Wednesday, Jun 25 2008 

Here are a couple of pictures that I consider the best of the two sites I have previously mentioned here. I swear every time I see them, I laugh my guts out. Enjoy. :D

On Jealousy Tuesday, Jun 24 2008 

The other day an old friend of mine came back to Jordan for a visit; she has been living in the US for almost 5 years now. So I picked her up and we went for some place to talk and catch up, you know how things go.

Anyway, she was telling me about her boyfriend and how things are with them; here is a bit:

Her: “So it’s like he’s everything on the check list.”
Me: (What the hell is a Check List?! Is this a new term that I’m supposed to be aware of?! I mean I went through hell knowing what’s an EMO! Now another thing! The only check list I’d like to know about is how am I going to pay the bill—JD 10 cover charge for a table of 4 = JD 40, excluding our orders and the service. Oh she’s talking!)
Her: “So he’s everything on the check list: great, handsome, has a god job, and he’s not jealous.”
Me: “He’s what?”
Her: “Not jealous. I mean he’s okay with me hanging out with other guys, clubbing, and all.”
Me: “Oh…!!!”

So yeah, she is happy because her boyfriend is okay with her going out with other guys… Am I the only one who sees something wrong with this?

For me jealousy is a good thing, no? I mean you get in a relationship because you want this guy/gal to be yours forever, and only yours. And that is your right, whether you are a male or a female. But being okay with your boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife/fiance going out with the opposite sex freely clubbing or drinking or anything related to that, is a bit to much I say!

And she was telling me he is the best of both worlds! Well he is the best of another world… You can guess that one! :D

Dis-guise(s) Monday, Jun 23 2008 

Mirror, mirror upon the wall, who in the land is fairest of all?

I cannot collect the scraps of my thoughts on this one, but I will write what I write and see to where it goes.

Lately, I have been noticing some of the people around their acts, and if I may describe one word upon them, it would be Vanity.

Looks, Looks, Looks, that all what they care about! Latest fashion, expensive cars, cool gadgets, luxurious hang-outs and so on and so forth. It really is not worth it, it is not worth all the suffering. I mean people would kill to have the perfect look, deep inside they want others to be envious, to die from inside as soon as they lay an eye on them!

I do not know if you get me, but I would like to know, no, I demand to know what happened to modesty. Humbleness?! I guess they are long gone…

What do those shapes reflect anyway? Am I supposed to be impressed? Intimidated maybe? I do not know and I do not want to know. However, I have never been impressed by money, the only thing that impresses me is knowledge.

I swear some people live in their air-castles, in their own worlds and dreams… Those people make me sick.
