hey hope ur all ... well u may be wondering why am writing a lot these days but it s just that i dont have much things to do plus i feel like writing and sharing my news with u .. in fact as u may know my job now isnt stable what i know is that i will stay with them till june 2010..
but after that i donno it depends if they renew their project in ksa..
anyway for me i made my plan already ..
well i have a few options but above all i really need a long vacation .. since i traveled to qatar in july 2006 i never had a long vacation and i was working heavily beside other things that give a lot of headaches like lookfing for a car to rent/buy and a place to rent .. follow ur iqama status look for better jobs, try n make new frds, adapt to ur life away from ur home .. so that s tiring and isnt easy.. for those who ve been living away from home will know for sure what am talking about .. anyway i need a rest from all that really .. so after june am planning to spend some tine in lebanon with my family and to travel so a calm place and prefrably alone or with a close friend.. i just want to be in peace and forget work and work and work .. to be honest with u .. my current company has made me disgust work .. i dont feel like working anymore even with the best company in the world .. it s like they threw us here and didnt care about us since we are resourses for the saudi telecom (STC) n working with STC isnt easy at all it s so complicated , lucky me my saudi manager is very nice n supportive.. but the work isnt easy they are always demanding n also life in saudi isnt easy at all .. it s me who s saying that .. even that i dont do clubbing, drinking etc .. but really like they show u the false face of religion ( i will be writing about that in details later) so u get annoyed with their actions and somehow they make u the opposite which means less religious all bcoz of their unethical actions :S .. anyway i will keep that to a later stage ... iA soon. :)
so after the vacation .. i think i would like to do my MBA .. finally :) but since i dont feel like working n i have to do my masters so i think that it wud be the rite time .. i dont wanna stay with my company even if they renew my contract n i would like to experience again the student life especially that MBA has become essential in our days .. i will just try to go to a good university :) .. hopefully iA ..
so that s it .. vacation and then MBA .. i dont feel like working anymore ,.. but maybe after my MBA things will change..
i do also like to meet in my MBA my other half .. as some of u may know but i wudnt be interested to marry a lebanese girl .. for many reasons but in summary reasons are:
1- they like to show off a lot .. n i hate that .. well not all of them but most of them ..
2- i wudnt like living in lebanon .. too many problems n conflicts btw lebanese n i wont like to live in this atmosphere..
3- her family will like to interfere a lot in our life .. wihch is normal for a lebanese family
so if i marry a non lebanese girl .. i think it wud solve all the above problems .. though i will have a problem with my mom :) but i think that i cud convince her in the end especially if the girl is good and muslim ..
well here many of u may ask what girl i wud go for .. i really wudnt mind an arab girl like syrian or egyptian or ... and western girls are okay for me as well .. many of u may think that i wud be after the passport now but really .. if the girl will think like that i will tell her to keep her passport for herslelf n that i dont want it .. it will really not take me to heaven her passport .. n i am really able to travel everywhere i want with my lebanese passport .. as for work .. ssince some companies pay the western more than any other natioanlity .well that s true but it is not with all the companies and not even most of them .. especially after the crisis .. and anyway .. i really dont want to stay employee for whole my life .. i want to have my own business .. even if it is small ..
well that s alll hope i was clear ... will write again soon ..

qatar or ksa or ???
hmm in a few more days it will be one year for me in saudi.. and to be honest with u i feel that it like few weeks i donno .. but the time isnt important anymore all what u do is passing in a fast way .. we r not feeling the time anymore! .. anyway let's talk now a bit how this year was and compare it to my life in doha:
- money wise it s much better than doha - what i have done here it is like 3 times better than doha .. so this is a big plus
- life in doha is much better , really , and even what is hard is that i am sure that i will never find frds like my frds n brothers in doha .. i miss them a lot and it s hard without them .. so sometimes i think that i wud do anything to go back to doha ..
- to be honest my job in doha wasnt really good well for my age maybe but as a career path NO! so am happy that i changed domain , am still in IT but now in sales and pre-sales in telecom .. which is amazing..
- hmm here i am traveling a lot .. for example in doha i used to travel maximum 3 times per year .. well here am more free sometime i can travel without telling any1 :) .. my passport is with me n my multiple exit permit . plus tickets are much much cheaper from here .. sometimes 1 direct ticket from doha to beirut equals 5 tickets from ksa to beirut .. yea big difference..
- so this year i went 9 times to beirut .. 10th time will be in a few days :P .. 3 times to doha .. 1 time to paris.. 1 time to london .. 1 time to abha (near yemen) .. 1 time to Jeddah .. 1 time to bahrain .. so in total 17 trips in 1 year!! that s amazing really .. hope i can break that next year
- the bad thing here is that my job isnt stable .. there are some problems btw my company and the compnay we r workig for since we are resources with them.. my manager likes me but sometimes it s more than that that counts .. anyway .. i think this is a good advantage .. well i can turn it in a good advantage ... coz i really dont want to spend a lot of time here .. i just donno where i wanna go :( or live :( ... well u may say doha but the thing is that i remember well that in my last days in doha i used to be depressed (that s before getting my current offer) so i donno why but i think that ksa wont be good for family especially for my wife .. so let live here now n gain some money n then i will leave for good to another place .. maybe less money but better social life .. n anyway i already saved the money from ksa to get married ..
yalla am leaving u now .. let s finish some work..

euro family trip!
hey was absent for a while now but i donno just too many things in mind!
well we planned to go europe my family n me n we went to paris n then london! all this was just after ramadan .. i spent the last 10 days of ramadan in beirut and hA was really nice .. well we headed to paris n to be honest with u i didnt expect to like that much since i went london the year before n i didnt like it that much .. well london is a beautiful city but it s tooooo crowded n i cant live like that to see so many ppl walking around me n all ppl in a rush n generally i dont think they r too friendly .. anyway paris is different :) i liked it a lot .. it so modern n nice society there n it s not that crowded .. walking in paris was really nice .. so much history in this city .. i loved the Louvres though am not into museams at all! n versailles WAW .. n0 words to describe how amazing it is ... i also met my bst frd riad there .. i know him since i was 3! lol! he showed us the city - also my 2 frds from lebanon nai and iris .. was nice to meet up with them ... i havent seen nai for like 3 years so was good to reconnect with her .. the Eiffel tower was brilliant :) .. so many nice things in paris .. before heading to london i had the chance to meet my best frd from qatar, Marwan :) .. i love tjhis guy we spent so much time together in doha ... breakfast, at work, after work, playstation, football .. oh i used to have so much fun with him .. n i missed him a lot when he left qatar .. i went to his flat n we remembered our old days together .. the difficult moments we were facing in doha and the good ones :) was really happy that i saw him ..
and it s london!
i wnet london for the 2nd time .. n i only went coz as i told u it s a family trip .. coz i dont feel good in london .. it s a nice place but i just cant stand this crowded busy city .. i like more quiet places.. anyway i decided to stay only 3 nites in london unlike my family who stayed 5 .. i was supposed to see close frds .. but i cant understand british ppl ... i like them but they far far far away frm our hospitality .. like they dont show much care when u visit them ,. however we wud do anything to make them happy .. anyway they r nice but not welcoming like us :) ..
but in general 3 nites were enough there .. i had fun with the guys .. like bilal n asif etc ... i was also happy that my family met my close frds there ..
well nothing myuch to say about london coz i ve been there bfore n i wanted to see my frds more than visiting places.. however was good that i went to chelsea stadium .. it s a small one but nice .. took some photos .. but i ccan remember that it was a mission to reach the stadioum area.. i made some mistakes by taking the wrong tube lol ..
anyway i head back to beirut n spent a few days before going back to work in saudi.. i wanted my vacation to finish as i wanted to go back to work .,. i dpont like long vacations so i felt that i had nothing to do anymore for fun .,. like i did have fun n it s time to go back..
yalla i better folllow barca game now!
