Yucky Yucky!


This weekend I met up with my cousins and my sister in Chocolate & Macaroon in Alraya Mall---and I did NOT like it!

Oy! Where should I begin?? First off their menu is completely non-negotiable, I ordered the 3 Junior bugers, and I wanted them to put an onion on one of my burgers and they said "NO" !! Who the hell says no??? So I asked for it on the side (thinking I'll just put it myself) and they said "NO"!! Then I asked, instead of ordering a side of cheese fries, could they just put cheese on the fries that come with my meal---and you guessed it they said "NO"!!


We literally spent 10 minutes arguing with them that this is a ridiculous rule that we can't change any order to what we want! They apologized but basically told us tough sh*t!




By the time the food came only half of the orders came out! The rest followed 20 minutes later (including my burgers). At first site the dish looked really artifical but I was hungry and I dug in. THEN the unthinkable!! My meal which came 20 minutes later than half my table was COLD! I immediately sent it back with one eyebrow raised and thinking I'm NEVER coming back here! Ten minutes later my burgers come back (out of a microwave I can only assume) and I gave it another shot.

Cutting to the chase I hated the food! The burger tasted and looked like plastic, the mushroom sauce was disgusting, the flavors were all out of wack! I couldn't finish my meal--it was just BAD!


Afterwards everyone wanted dessert, so we ordered chocolate fondant and mini brownies with coffee---and this is the only good thing I can say---they have good desserts! I don't know if I found it so mouthwatering cause I was already starving but I'm pretty sure it was reeeeaally good.

So in conclusion: their food sucked, their service sucked, the desserts are good!


Soooo this is what I recommend---ONLY ONLY ONLY eat their desserts--if that!

New BB Application!


Sooo recently I've been feeling bad about my blackberry...I really want the new iphone! BUT instead of complaining I've taken the initiative to make my bb the best bb EVER! :P So I got on my BB application world application and downloaded this new app, "Empower SMS Viewer and Composer".

I'm still using the trial but I think I'm sold already! It really allows me to personalize my phone and it threads all your messages like the iphone....You can choose either to put in a background pattern or color, a header pattern or color, font colors, incoming and outgoing msg icons, you can also pull up a page of icons really quickly (see picture below) and bunch of other cool things... you can personalize every detail of your txt messaging! ooo and you can choose the option to send your txt by clicking enter (like in BBM)



The only thing I dont like about it, is your inbox still looks the same, and unlike the iphone where each convo is in one folder, new threads are started to the same person anytime you message first. So it's basically the same blackberry txt messaging concept but you can add your own personal touches.

The application cost $9.99 and I think it's definitely worth it! Try out the trial to see how you like it!

Here's the link to the application.

In the News: Teen 800-meter winner asked to prove gender



South African teenager Caster Semenya won the women's 800 meters gold medal at the World Athletics Championships in Berlin, just hours after the sport's governing body asked for the 18-year-old's gender to be verified.

hoooooooow embarrassing :s where do they come up with this?? Athletes typically have a more masculine build--but requesting her to prove her gender?! Apparently this has happened before:

There have been precedents in such cases, the most famous being that of Polish athletics great Stella Walsh, who won Olympic gold in the 100 yards at the 1932 Olympics and silver in the same event in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin. However, after she was shot dead during an armed robbery in 1980, the subsequent autopsy revealed she possessed male genitalia, although she also had female characteristics as well.

Hmmmmm I mean she does look a bit manly...buuuut cmooon seriously? I guess we will all know soon when they announce to the world if its a he or she!

My friend "L" just sent me this forward...


We hope all unemployed, poverty stricken Americans turn a deaf ear, because this could be painful!!

Paris Hilton had a 300 sq. ft, $325,000 dog house built for her pups Tinkerbell, Marilyn Monroe, Prince Baby Bear, Harajuku, Dolce and Prada.

The pooch mansion sits behind her Beverly Hills home and is furnished with faux designer doggie products from Jimmy Chew, Pawda, Sniffany & Co. and Chewy Vuitton.

“It’s a miniature version of my house,” said the heiress to Life & Style. “I designed it with the help of my interior decorator, Faye Resnick. I wanted it to be fun, cute, comfortable and beautiful. My friends just love it and think it’s so adorable and cool.”

The two floor dog house has a clay-tile roof with copper gutters, intricate ceiling molding and a crystal chandelier hanging in the bedroom complete with central air. The dogs even have a closet and a downstairs living room!

“They love lying on the balcony, playing in their backyard and hanging out on their living room furniture. They appreciate the house that Mommy built for them,” she continued. "The dogs love to dress up. My friends say they have a better wardrobe than most people.”

We have no doubt!!!

See no babies! And wasn't that entertaining as hell??----I wanna make one for my baby kitty :)

Question...



How come when you're cleaning your ears you cough?? I was thinking that last night.....This can't just be me, right??

yuuummmmm I went to Noodle House the other night with my sister and her husband and it was taaaaaaaasty! My sisters husband kept saying that the one in Dubai was better--but we were all satisfied. Go check it out! I recommend the crab cakes for appetizer and the black pepper prawns or blackened prawns (something like that) yuuuuuuummmmyyyy!!!!

Once again I ate the food before taking pictures soooorry....maybe if I go back I'll remember to take pics

Babies Babies.....and you got it-- MORE Babies!!


Every morning I come into the office, open my email and shuffle through my daily friendly forwards and what I have noticed is that people in Kuwait (especially certain people at KNPC and NBK) are OBSESSED with baby forwards!! Pictures of babies sleeping, eating, smiling, crying, standing, falling, with a cat, with a dog, with their shadow, in a bucket, on grass, in an oversized hat, or soooometimes the occasional forward with "inspirational" or "enlightening" words of wisdom written across the pic (like the one featured above). I want jokes! I want crazy stories! I want something more interesting than a chubby fat baby drooling on my screen!
(The one above is cute tho right :P)

Freedom of Speech anyone??



I was just thinking the other day with my friend H (aka covert penguin), about starting a new blog or remodeling this one into more of a 'sex and the city' type of topics and social issues. Buuuuuut I heard a rumor once that Mark from 248am was actually arrested for 3 days for something he said on his blog! I'm not sure if thats true buuuuut now I'm freaking out that as my blog readership jumps from 4 to 5 people that the government will catch on and notice I wrote s-e-x on the sentence above and slap the cuffs on me!!
What do you think? Can I talk about boys and relationships or will I get shut down?


You know if I had my way I'd twitter instead of blog. I just feel like too much effort goes into my blog posts--topics, image searching, etc... but if I twit away then i can do it from my bb and only right like a few sentences!!

Will you guys follow me to twitter???


To be honest I have no idea how it works but I'm going to find out---I want to twitty twit twit on twitter!
