I can’t contain myself. You see, I’ve been with many cars in the past. Saloons, coupes, super sports and whatnot but now I’ve decided I needed a daily car.

Since

graduating, my father offered to buy me any car I wanted. I don’t like using his money, so I asked for an ES350 and told him to keep the rest and invest it.

It’s a very nice car, super silent, and has good speed. The main thing for me is the comfort inside.

Now if you ask me what car I want to own one day, it’s the DBS Aston Martin Jame’s Bond edition. That’s my dream car. For now, I’ll live with this one while I invest what I have in my businesses.

The funny thing is, while I was driving one, I felt like my balls were freezing. I couldn’t understand why, I then realized I had the built in chair air condition on, so it was blowing air up my ass

Woke up at 4 pm today! I was so tired from waking up early everyday. I’m going to go out and go to the tailor. I’m so tired. I need to go to the gym more, but I’m in Bahrain at the moment. *Cries*

My mother wanted to go have an early lunch in the Country Club. So we went and had a seat at the table. I thought it would be a good change to just chat. I ordered some chili prawns and some stir-fry with rice. When the food arrived, it looked great.

What do you think?

In Bahrain and Qatar, the sun begins to set at around 5 and it’s dark by 6:30.

I called up Hamed and we went to the mall to do some shopping. I decided that I needed some shirts. We walked around and I finally stepped into Zara where I bought these two nice shirts. One was white with light brown and blue stripes, the other was purple. I need to take them to the tailor though to make the sleeves a bit shorter. The rest fits perfectly.

Bu3ali then came to the mall and we decided to go to the cinema to watch a Jet Li movie. It was very nice, with alot of twists.

After finishing, Hamed went home and I went with Bu3ali to a Thai restuarant. It was very nice. It was like a bar/restaurant. I ordered some green curry, prawn cakes, and other snacks. We devoured the food and then had a seat on the comfy sofas. The waitresses there were these Thai girls with super short skirts. After a few minutes rest, we left and I went off home.

I did a bit of exercise, washed up and went to sleep.

So I get up in the morning and go to the Driving Authority in Bahrain since I’ve sent my license off to get renewed. I’ve been waiting for a while now and I’m stuck in Bahrain until my license arrives. I want to go back to Qatar to do some odd jobs and also get used to driving around. While I’m in Bahrain, I’m a bit limited since I have nothing to do but relax and go out for a while.

Once I arrived there, I jumped the que and spoke to a guy that I was referred to. He said he’d check out what’s going on. A few moments later he says, can I see your ID card. I show it to him. He then says, “the post office wrote your number down wrong so that’s why we can’t find it”. I’m like wtf?
So he goes again to check and tells me that it was sent to my house two days ago. I told him I didn’t get anything but he tells me to wait. Let’s see what happens. I know I’ll end up waiting forever for this damn thing.

So let’s get back into the old routine.
Today was a simple day, went to my friend Hakam’s house, sat a bit, then went to Nandos to eat.

Later on I drove to Zain to pick up two sim cards that Jalal left me. I met up with my uncle and we went to a cafe called Chaise. I gave him one of the sim cards because it was a nice telephone number.

His friend’s also came along and we chatted about many subjects. They were very friendly.

I finally drove home and decided to speak to my darling before going to bed. Simple day.

I’ve received tons of emails from friends and readers of my blog. I’m sorry for not updating as much. I’m just really busy setting everything up at the moment since I’m now in Qatar.

I’ll get back to my old schedule soon enough

It’s been a very busy couple of days for me, I spent most of my time thinking about business opportunities and meeting people.
The most important thing was going out with my father and my uncle. We went to a cafe and met a group of men. Each man had a different background, one was a school teacher, he looked smart, was reading a book about Tolstoy, and he gave each person the feeling that he was seriously paying attention. One for a professor at Carengie Mellon, he gave me the feeling that he was intelligent and eager to learn; another man was with his son, I was unsure what his background was, however he seemed to have strong opinions; finally there was a friend of my fathers, he was called ‘the encyclopedia’.

With such a smart group of people, would I just be silent? Of course not! I found myself whipping out the iPhone and getting a ton of questions, I explained everything to the best of my knowledge and saw that questions soon shifter to personal things. I smiled of course and explained my goals, my vision, and my hopes. They all shared one common opinion, they said that they were sure that I would go places and that I was a smart man.

One of them even said that I was a genius and had great potential because of my ability to keep a positive attitude.

I felt strange. I was answering questions and being torn apart. I found myself telling these smarter and older men “please, I’m sorry if I am not able to give you attention, I’ll finish answering his question and come back to you. I’m sorry”

I left feeling great!

A younger man there also seemed to know a great deal, he was friendly, he laughed and what’s more, he said he was going to Qatar and wanted to meet up. It’s nice to have made some friends already!

The next day I got a text message from a girl from my high school; Munira. She said she got my number from that guy. I was surprised. She called me and we started to chat a bit. She had such kind words to say about me. I felt good inside. We knew each other since we were very young. We both used to be in Bahrain School and both moved to Bayan School.

I hope that I can always be as confident and share my knowledge.

I was at a cafe with a man named Jalal Baluch. He works for Mena Telecom and I brought a couple of iPhones. I found myself meeting him quite a couple of times. Although in his Mid-40’s, he acts surprisingly young and he is such a smart man. I requested a portfolio relating to his company in order to consider opening a branch in Doha. Let’s see how that goes. It’s very nice to have such a friend who works in a Telcom business but also has a passion for the field he’s in.

Oh I ate Shawarma today… mmm… tasty. I went to ‘The Lebanese Restaurant’ in Manama. I love that place!

Today was quite good, Hamed came over, we went to Chilis to eat. I took a few pictures and we chatted alot. As I showed him the iPhone, a huge crowd gathered around me. All asking questions, all asking about my business. I really was excited to be able to get so much interest because it meant my business would be successfull.
Chilis in Bahrain is so much tastier than in England. It was nice because usually in Ramadan we eat some dates before eating properly (to let our stomach know it’s food time), but we also drink Vimto traditionally, and Chilis gave us a glass of Vimto for free. It was such a nice touch. Combining our traditions in a modern restaurant.

There wasn’t so much to do. Bahrain has changed a bit, but not so much. It’s quite a poor country in comparison to others, but it’s doing well.

I’m staying until Friday before I go to Doha so I have to relax while I can.

I met a guy named Jalal. He’s a person who bought some iPhones from me. Such a friendly guy. He was a large man with a friendly face. Probably around his mid 40’s. Hamed was with me at the time I met him, so they got to chatting. Basically Hamed was able to get a job out of the small meeting. I’m meeting him tomorrow after I break my fast so we can have a little chat about business and MENA Telecom.

I also met Omar today. He was friendly to me, but then again, he’s always friendly after I don’t see him for a long time. He’s finally thinking about his future. I hope he keeps this good attitude.

It’s late now so I think I’ll head to bed. Oh, the weather is so humid -_-;

I saw that my girl really cares about me. Her tears flooded my shirt. I pinched my leg as her head was on my chest. I didn’t want to show any sadness. If I’m brave and I look fine, then I will not make her sadder. In my heart I felt guilt and pleasure.

I was guilty to be leaving her alone. I promised I’d take care of her everyday. I will still do that but still…. I know I’ll be seeing her in a few weeks time, but I felt selfish to be leaving her.

I felt pleasure though in the fact that those were tears by someone who cared about me. Her tears were not of simple sadness, they were from the heart. When something is torn away from you, your heart feels the pain as if something was removed by force, the pain causes tears to flow.

However at the end of the day, those tears and the distance can act as a great trigger. It causes the brain to panic and to begin thinking carefully. The relationship can only get stronger. Otherwise, it’s a test that shows how strong the bond between two people is.

Yesterday was a rough day. Alot happened. As usual, it seems nothing could be on time. England decided to make things hard for me even when it was time for me to leave.
My bags were not picked up (it would be Monday), there was furniture that wasn’t picked up, and finally I had some small things being sent to me. I’m so lucky to have people who are kind to me that can help.

I had finally packed everything amazingly! It all fit in my cases so well. I felt a small sadness in my heart. I wasn’t sad to be leaving England. My darling was who I was going to miss. I feel nothing for England except for discontent. Everyone tries to cheat you. I left with an almost empty wallet! It’s too expensive. The companies all act friendly but don’t care about you. The worst part is that if you want to make any money, the taxes and government find a way to take it all away from you.

As I sat in the taxi which was driven by a chinese girl. She was 23 and married. She started talking to me and we discovered that we met before! Her husband was actually a friend of mine! What a coincidence. She seemed to want to chat about her problems to me, and I listened and shared my advice

When I got to the airport, my experience was varied. I felt happy to be leaving, but also sad. I’ll explain my sadness later. I was holding my suitcase, walking cane for my grandfather, laptop, and bag. It was alot for me to carry, so I had my wallet in my jacket pocket. When I got to security, I told the woman, can you please take my wallet out. She looked at me with an ugly face. She was a fat Indian woman with cold eyes. “No! I will not put my hands in your pocket”.

What the hell does she think I have inside? Guns? I already passed security three times! So I put everything down and took out my passport. What a rude woman! They’re always rude. They ask flyers to be kind, but they’re not kind at all.

Anyway, I headed through and went to the plane. I love Qatar Airways because it’s such a great airline. Great service and great comfort. It’s one of five airlines to be 5 stars. Asiana, Singapore, Cathay Pacific and Lufthansa are the others. (NO Emirates is NOT, it fluctuates between 3 and 4 stars).

When I arrived in Bahrain after a transit through Doha, I had to leave through the security, I guess it was because I have an english face, but the security said “what’s in your bag”. I looked at him and replied in Arabic “Clothes”. He seemed surprised. He said, “where did you come from?” I said “England, I just finished university”. He said “did you study arabic?” I said “No! I’m from Qatar!”. He said, “are you Bahraini?” I said “no! I’m Qatari! What does my nationality and my education have to do with my bags?” He looked a bit scared because I was angry and it seemed he just wanted to find something to complain about. He grabbed my walking cane and said “does this open?”.
In my heart I wanted to say “Yes it opens, inside this stick I’ve got guns, drugs, bombs, oh and a samurai sword”, but instead I smiled “no, now move out of my way or I’ll get you fired”. He moved. I walked out.

When I got home, I was tired but I chatted with my mother. I then had to sort out a stupid issue with paypal. I run a mobile business and people pay me through it, but damn paypal said I’m receiving too much and it’s suspicious. I’m running a BUSINESS! They blocked my account and my partners. I feel so stressed. I hate Paypal.
