I’m really trying!

I know I know, its like why I made a blog while I take ages to make a new post.

Well I’m not saying I’m extremely busy, in fact I got free time and I could post and look after my blog better.

It’s just I lose the mood for blogging.. before I couldn’t wait for my blog to be created.

Any ways many things came up many things changed.. I wont be promising anything but I will do my best.


Guess whos back!

I know its been a while since my last post, I don’t know how to explain my reasons.. but how ever I’m back again!.

Thanks to my cousin who cheered me to keep blogging, and that hes the reason of making this :)

I had many activities that last few weeks, since the summer and vacation.. staying out late, going out with my mates, you know guys stuffs.

Oh, I bought a new car.. I was very confused which car should I buy, I was looking around about 2 months to see what car suits me

So after making my mind I bought FJ Cruiser; I like it and its a great car. but since its 4.0 and has a small fuel tank, its a bit pricey on the fuel

So I found that there is some group for FJ Cruiser owners, a group of guys made a small group here in UAE, meeting and going out every 2 weeks..

I went with them and they’re so nice people, was great to meet such a guys who love to go around and off road and explore.

We went to some locantion in Oman called “Khasap” It’s an amazing place, Soon I will post a few pics of the trip we had.

Etisalat and Du

Du is growing up now and many people were talking about their Internet Service.

Some said they wont add filter, cause we suffer allot from Etisalat, true that we thank them for blocking the Pron/Adult websites, But sadly Etisalat blocks many other websites as well.. Such as torrent sites, Some of P2P Software’s such as Lime Wire, Kazaa , Morpheus.. any some others, Skype and even they don’t allow us to use VoIP modems, Flicker, Myspace, Facebook. etc some of those websites were unlocked cause many people were complaining about the blocking.

Many people use’s the VoIP modems. which allows you to call from internet which is pretty cheap comparing with the local  providers (Etisalat and Du), so Etisalat blocked it too. but Du didn’t. And heard many saying that Du won’t be blocking sites like Etisalat does, Still not sure about this.. cause its getting annoying every few week a new website blocked or a program blocked. Asked few people and told me that Du still don’t provide even whole Dubai for Internet service yet. only few areas in Dubai. I’m hopping that Du breaks Etisalat price’s in Internet service; cause its pretty expensive comparing with the European countries.

And I kind of bored using Etisalat due the bad support, you have to wait more than 10~30 mints on the phone to get answered if you had a problem which is pretty much, okay we know that maybe they are “Busy solving other costumers problems” then hair more employers? I’m not being a nagtive person. I do like the service you are giving us and i’m thankful, just few things I don’t like about your services.

  1. Price, High price comparing with European countries.
  2. Support team, Slow respond time

I will get the prices of Du Internet service and will compare speed and cost between Du and Etisalat, Hopefully Du will be Internet service will be available around the UAE soon.

edit: The prices of the Internet package’s is the same as Etisalat also, and they provide 64Kbit’s/sec 128, 512, 1Mbps and 2Mbps.

Trip to Bahrain

Been a long time from my last post.

But as they say every one has his reason of Absent

So I had some days off, and suddenly my bigger brother wanted to go to Bahrain by the car.

So I thought it would be fun, going by the car is more enjoyment that going by airplane.
its like you made and achievement. i mean driving all that way and finding the correct roads and the team spirit.

So yeah we went from Dubai to KSA passing by Qatar and heading to Bahrain.
I can’t say the we didn’t get lost some times, we did, but we kept asking people every time we get lost or not sure about the road
When we went out of U.A.E and passing by to KSA,the roads were so scary, I mean they are scary, No lights and the road not very good like there is wholes some times and the road has two side roads some times.
But we were aware of that. so we went in day time. and we got stopped by the police like 7 times total. 4 times in the U.A.E and 2 times in the KSA and once in Bahrain
Cause of the raybon, we installed 2 layers. in front of the window we installed the mirror type. heres a

picture
But thanks god they let us pass without any problems ( thanks police men for understanding ).

The second layer was the black one.

When we got into some town in KSA, we got completely lost, cause the roads are so complicated. not like U.A.E
And I noticed a strange thing in KSA, when we were passing that town I saw no people outside walking. no offense to the KSA people. I do know many friends from their and they are very fun and cool people ;)
It just was a creepy seen, like a ghost town, we asked some guy and he lead us to the way. we followed him till the main road. ( Thanks to him )

Also an strange price difference between UAE and KSA in patrol. we used to fill the half tanker with like 70Dhs about 19$ USD and when we reached KSA we were filling the half tanker for 25Dhs/7$ USD Only!
When we asked for the price he told us the price and laughed on him, he reply ” yeah I know its cheap ” haha seems not only us who laughed on the guy.
The roads was almost empty, The whole trip was like 11 Hours. we were driving like 180/220 KM.
We got really tired, also that we were drive shifting but still tried. we been stopping at every gas station. to take a walk and rest for few mins.
After we got into  Bahrain we were so happy that we reached our destanation, and our body’s were like not tired any more from the joy! :)

We planed to stay like 2 or 3 days. But we had more fun that we expected so we stay longer for a week.
The roads was so nice I mean there is no traffic jams as Dubai and shariah that drives any one to gone MAD, Like getting stuck in the road for hours.
In Bahrain there were traffic but the traffic moves fast. so its was all cool. we didn’t get out so much in Dubai cause of the silly traffic jams that destroys every one spirit to get out -_-
But we never stayed, we kept going out visiting places in Bahrain, Malls, Shopping centers, etc etc etc.

When its time go back to UAE we didn’t get lost. But only that we went 15KM to Kuwait not to UAE haha, but after it we went straight to UAE.
Took us like 11 hours also. even thought we didn’t get lost. but we got late cause of the crazy traffic jam in dubai…….

It was difficult but it was fun and worth it after all.
