Axis of Evil - Dubai
The Axis of Evil Comedy Tour will be in Dubai Nov 27 - 29. I got really excited as I should be in Dubai around that time. I checked online and the tickets were to go on sale in Dubai on Nov 20th and online starting Nov 21st.
As of 11 pm Bahrain time last night (midnight Dubai time) I sat myself in front of the net and started clicking and refreshing, waiting for the tickets to go on sale. Eventually around 2 am, I gave up and went to sleep. Throughout the night, I kept waking up and checking, nothing.. nada!
This morning, I checked a few more times until I got a bad feeling about it. Called Dubai, and lo’ and behold, SOLD OUT! They all sold out last night! I’m so upset that I never even had a chance! I was sooo looking forward to this.
Update: They’ve added 3 more shows in Dubai and all 3 Comedians, Maz Jobrani, Aron Kader and Ahmed Ahmed, have been wonderful about responding to their fans! This just makes me want to make their show even more! Stay tuned for updates, and hopefully, a recap of the show if I get tickets!

Pre-Mobile
How did we ever function pre-”mobile phone era”? I know how we functioned pre-internet.. slowly! Mail used to take 2-4 weeks to get half way across the world and we had to go to the library to research information. Encyclopedia’s played a big part of our life and we weren’t as knowledgeable about the rest of the world and its events.
But without mobile phones, how did we ever manage to meet up somewhere? Now-a-days, we constantly use our mobile to figure out where the other person is, when they’re arriving, and where we’re meeting up. “Wainkom?” “3ind el food court.. yala ta3alay!”
Imagine your mobile taken away from you for a few days. Will you be able to function?

The New 30
When I was younger, I looked at people in their 30’s as “old”.. of course, now that I’m one of ‘those people’, I think 30 is still young! 
Granted, whatever age we’re at, we usually think those younger than us are babies and those older than us are dinosaurs. But, is it just me, or is “30″ in this day and age younger than the “30″ in the past?

Randomness

- “Dating is like driving a cab; you’ve got to have your lights on so guys know you’re available.” (* Glamour)
- “Life’s too short to worry about things you can’t change!”
- “Smile.. make them wonder what you’re up to!”
- “Every once in a while, just take a leap!”
