Rightful Thoughts
Posted by Bloggylife in thoughts on February 21st, 2010
Everyone has the right to form their own opinion.
Everyone has the right to change their opinion without being judged.
But NO one has the right to change their opinion and expect everyone to change theirs too!

نصيحة متفائل
لماذا تدمن التفكير و الله و لي التدبير
و لماذا القلق من المجهول و كل شئ عند الله معلوم
اطمأن فأنت في عين الله الحفيظ
كفالته بلا حدود
و عطاياه لا تمنعها سدود
قل بقلبك الله معي
االله ناظر الي
شاهد علي
تعش مرتاحا عند الله محفوظ
I got this via sms and every now and then, I read it over and just breathe in.

Girlfriends Thoughts
Posted by Bloggylife in thoughts on February 17th, 2010
Girls make the best friends.
Friendship that can last forever.
A relationship that isn’t sealed by religious commitment or legal vows. A bond that is not grounded by blood nor governed by kinship.
It is a choice.
It can survive differences. It can survive distances.
It is a relationship that is continuously tested. Surviving impossible challenges.
Yet surprisingly easily broken, an unknown, faceless, nameless cause!
It’s the most ironic cause, a strong deeply rooted tree, that survived rigorous conditions gets blown away!!!
Girls can make the best friends!
But one curse breaks everything apart.
A relationship that makes you feel like …
or like …

eReaders:
Nope I still don’t have one
I may have one by the end of this year.
With old traditional way books, you own a copy, it’s physical, you sense it, but imagine if you wanted to carry around multiple books, if you were travelling or just about to finish a book and need another one for the ride, eReaders come in handy.
If you think of eReaders and their impact on the environment, we do save trees by saving papers on books but don’t we contribute to global warming with electricity needed to charge it, heat emitted from it and electronic waste. Even if it small, but it is accumulative, isn’t it?
Anyway another thing popped into my sleepless head, what if I wanted an author to sign a copy of his/her book, how is that possible on an electronic copy! Till this moment, I am not aware of any eReader with an input device that one can scribble down something on a digital page. It’d would be awesome if eReaders, had cameras and I then can take a photo with the author and make it a page within the book and make him/her sign it, if it were possible. How about the iPad what does it offer, let’s not go there
I take that back, cameras in eReaders, I don’t like it when too much unrelated functionality is shoved down products.
On a different note:
Don’t you agree that sometimes IT people exaggerate to the extend of ending the world at every IT hiccup.
“Well if this goes wrong, it is going to have disastrous consequences, the world will end”
“What ?? Will it make the sun and earth collide, will the earth stop rotating and swallow itself!!!”
“ahhh, no but the system will slow down, you won’t be able to play for a couple of minutes”
“!!!! Pick up and the phone, LIFE is calling you .. GO and get it”
This is not “The Matrix”, we do no live in a simulated reality, sometimes I’d rather we do, we’d solve all our problems by simply restarting the world, that is if it were built on windows infrastructure

Sports Day
Posted by Bloggylife in Kuwait, UK, thoughts on February 14th, 2010
On Wednesday lectures end early. In the morning you’d see most students in sports uniforms and equipment heading to the university. After lectures end, all the grass fields are filled up with students practising some kind of sport. Even schools as I walk by, children are out in the playground in groups, each playing a sport.
This is a day in UK, Wednesday is sports day.
Why don’t we have this in Kuwait ?
I’m not sure how was it for you, but for me back in the days, P.E. had the lowest priority. Most of the times we never actually got around to having that class, I’m not sure how we were graded! The slot was always taken by other subjects and when we managed to get around to having P.E., we just changed into our sports clothes and sit idly for 45 minutes, chatting and walking around. Most of the P.E. teachers were overweight with not physical fitness at all!!! School did not encourage sports at all.
Why don’t we have day like that? GOD knows we desperately need physical activities with all the obesity rate in our country. And it is important both to boys and girls.
We’ll have it on a Tuesday, middle of the week. Schools have their own covered gym. Some sports can be taken to other places, like sports club arena. In winter sports can be taken outside. If they don’t have enough P.E. teachers to cover a school or a district, outsource and not to single contract. I think it is better to contract on individual basis, that way assessing the individual’s qualification is more accurate and less troublesome with all the hassle of dealing with strikes because the contracted empolyer didn’t pay the employees.
School sports doesn’t have to be only about competitions and only the competed sports and students get all the attention, it should be about ensuring that individuals have a sport that they enjoy and will continue to practice throughout their lives and who knows maybe make a career out of it. “يمكن اتعدل الأوضاع الرياضية عندنا”
