100 things to know about me !! (updated in March 2008)
This post started last Wednesday, and gone through all the weekend, and to Saturday, I just finished it.. Try it your self.. it's fun ( & That’s been said ) This is a post that is been inspired from another blog.. it was really cool to read someone making a list with things about them selves.. While I was on the cardio machine at the gym last Tuesday, I kept on thinking.. could I do it?? It’s very weird to talk about your self.. but things started to pop up in my head.. of course I didn’t have a PC or pen and paper with me, so I lost them all.. but they were very interesting.. I mean some of them are realllllly too much to share.. for they are too extreme and I know many of you would probably judge me.. Although I never judge people.. but I know the society over here makes you judge people.. I think it’ll take me few days to write it down.. I’ll have a pen and a paper with me most of the time, and as soon as one thought pops up again about me I’ll write it down.. until I get the 100 things about me post ready.. I think this is the longest post I’ll ever have here without pictures or anything.. let’s see how it goes… This is a list of 100 things about me, it is not in this particular order: 1- I love my family more than my self 2- I loved my mom more than anything on this earth, before she passed away 3- I’m good at friendships more than relationships (I think I got better at relationships) 4- I never hated anybody in this whole wide world before I moved back to Kuwait. 5- Now I hate extremists and religious people (who push their beliefs on me). 6- I don’t feel uncomfortable around gay guys, unless they hit on me. 7- I never know what I am going to do next 8- I live my life on a day to day bases, with no planning what so ever. (4 years later, and I have started planning it now) 9- I made more money investing for the company I work for than making money investing for my self.

post a commentI've learned so much about you from this one post then all of your other posts combined :)
I'm really sorry about your mother...
I admire you for quitting smoking, and I'm jealous of you 'cuz I think the Meringue is the sexiest dance of all time. Apparently we share a high tolerance to alcohol haha
Okay take care :) (I might do this in one of my upcoming posts, hope you don't mind)
D&G, I just edited my post, for some reason the numbers came all next to each other, I guess it was hell for you to read it like that.. now it’s all corrected..
I know what you mean about you knowing me better.. that’s one of the reasons for doing this.. but the main reason is you discovering things about yourself, or actually, write something that no one knows about, or few people know.. that felt like things lifting off my chest.. I actually talked about things about me that only me knows about, and never thought I would tell anyone.. that felt really good. And the best part.. I didn’t care if people will judge me or not.. this is who I am.. like it or not.. you know what I mean ??
Actually the sexiest dance ever was Tango.. I mean it’s soooo sensual, if you see me dancing with a girl you would think me and her have something going on behind closed doors.. although it is only a dance.. I once danced it with a girl at a party after couple of friends pressured me in to dancing it.. of course it was only me who knows how to dance, and a girl in my Tango class.. so every one else were just as audience.. after I finished the dance.. mouths were dropping.. everyone was all silent.. a friend came up to me and told me “ Every guy in this room wanted to be you, and every girl wanted to be the one dancing with you” LOL that made me feel really good.. but embarrassed a little bit..
And yes, you should do it.. you’ll feel something lifted off your chest believe me.. and make people know you just little bit more.. but you have to know.. clear you mind, and don’t go over my post when you do that so you won’t get influenced. It’s easy to get distracted this way.. I’m telling you it’s not as easy as it seems.. I encourage everyone to do that.. good luck :)
I admire your ability to maintain one task and see it through.. you see if I started this list without any basis to have you know I woulda quit after the first 10 or 20 hehe :P I like mostly to answer questions that are already there.. but oh well..
I'm also sorry about the passing of your mother.. It made me sad reading that..
Life is like a cheese sandwich.. you have to figure it out :P
Hmmm...
*raises an eyebrow*
PSS :)
Just Jackie,
You and your cheese sandwiches.. LOL… no really.. I hear ya girl.. but what questions you say you would like to answer ?
Pink,
*TheDon pushes her eyebrow back down to its place with his finger*.. :)
TheDon well not really a specific kind of questions.. I just do it better that way.. I have answered ALOT OF surveys sent by friends you know those questionarre things :P still got most of them in my mailbox :P probably put one of those hehe edited of course :P to remain unknown :P
TheDon, if there were more people like you in Kuwait, or the world for that matter, it would be such a better place. Kudos for posting the list and letting the world learn that much more about you.
P.S. i dont fast either...
I've been riding for over 40 years now. Built my first chopper in 1970. It was a '50 panhead with an 8 inch over front end, a king and queen "custom hump" seat. No chrome, couldn't afford it. The tank was salvaged from an old BSA. No front brake. Ugly as hell, but I thought it was the greatest ride in the world.
Keep it in the wind!
Very informative and touching indeed
I've decided to disqualify points 84 and 100 hehe (they're about the list, and not that personal).
So you owe us two more personal points ;)
Gigi, punctiliously
P.S. I enjoyed reading and knowing about you.
Your list is impressive and moving, any sequels?
I'm wondering whether your next point would be:
101 - I am really sick of making lists.
Ok,
I have a question and you may choose not to answer it because the answer might be too personal... But I am Curious.
You said you used to believe in God, but Not Anymore. Why ? It seems like you've lost hope in something ?
Pink Thinks :)
Wow.. I think that’s a lot of comments..
Let’s see…
Just Jackie, the trick is doing the list from your head, not try and copy and past something done before, and that’s why I said to D&G not to read my list then do it, it will influence you.. Give your self a break from my list then try with your first point.. it will come to you.. and it will come without order.. that’s fine !!
Mishu, thanks bro.. that’s very kind of you..
Buffallo, I love old school bikes, my favorite old school bikes are Indian Larry style may he rest in peace.. Many of my friends went to his memorial on the 19th of Sep. in Brooklyn..
Rabab, I never wanted to tell you about this place, to see if it get popular enough for you to discover it on your own, and you did.. LOL welcome dear..
Gigi, Damn it!! I thought no one would notice.. LOL
Shosho, no more 101.. although things kept coming out when I was writing, and I had to stop my self…
Pink, dear, I think just saying that in public is enough for now.. The point wasn’t to get in to religious debate believe me.. I just had to say the truth, and I did.. but I have total respect for all religions and all people… never try to offend anyone.. well !! except extremists that try to pressure me and influence me “ghusob”.. and like I said.. there are some people that will judge me, and I’m ok with that.. I hope you would understand :)
Thank you guys for your input..
Very nice of you to open up like this, saying the truth is very good :} you definetlly feel better every time you do it and most of all I like it that ur not worried what people think..
sorry about ur mother allah y'3md ro7ha eljnnah ..
What I liked most about ur post is a thing I an intrested in which is knowing people as persons & their personalities, belifes and way of life not who they are in real life (as u mentioned) because it simply doesnt matter when we are talking about persons :).. from that intrest I have I liked ur 100 things list, no I didnt judge u :} bec. I learned some things (personality is one) are not like what they seem, liked ur honesty & that u were spontanious.
Oh my god u r great and u love N.Y. i love u i never thought i would read such a touching blog
FWS, I don’t know what to say really.. you made me get embarrassed.. but what’s with the total anonymity like that ??
Dear Don
1- very sorry abt your mom I know how you feel, I lost a father it is a life altering experience.
2- that is really brave of you doing the list- I’ll stick to my white elephant until I muster the courage to do a list.
3- I practiced Aikido too, I miss it. It changed my life to the better. Unfortunately I forget it, cuz when I came back there was no aikido in q8. Are still practicing ?
Dear Don, you sound like a very well-adjusted guy and all-round nice person. I don't know what instigated you to compile this list but you practically bared your soul.
NYC... boo hoo!
Before you doze off to your daily FRIENDS fix, here's a little something
http://www.nationalenquirer.com/stories/feature.cfm?instanceid=62496
Aaaaahhh... dude, I don't know what to say.. nothing against gays really.. But Joe Tribiani can never be gay.. damn.. Nothing is impossible these days...
Mosan, unfortunately I don’t practice it anymore.. There is this one place I know of that gives Aikido classes, but the whole atmosphere was not to my likings.. So I didn’t sign up…
After doing the list it changed somethings inside me.. I’m still who I am,( I feel like I'm sounding like MNM here) but I guess more centered.. and the best part is make you and the others just jump in my shoes and experience my world.. Who knows we might have so much in common.. thanks for your kind comment..
i wish i could do my own list but i'm so confused i don't know where to begin where to end my life is a mess
acctually it's a mixture between two contradicted lives for example i love Cairo and i love N.Y,i love Mr.Big and i love Jamal 3abd Alnaser..
Dear Funky W.S.
those extreme contradictions makes people more worldly and fascinating . I believe it is a positive trait.
Yeah.. for example I love Samri and Rock, Foie Gras and Hamburgers, Wine and Vimto
Don, Joey Tribiani is straight all the way. Matt LeBlanc could swing either way, but then judging from the source of this story...
hi :) i loved the idea can i do it myself ? @@
happy eid .
MyDream, or Yourdream in this case, of course you can.. I encourage you to do so.. It’s not that easy, and you’ll see how hard it is to spill out the good, the bad, and the ugly about your self.. and I can see that you will have more hard time, because you are saying that you don’t like to talk about your self...
So good luck, and keep me posted...
Aaaaw you big sweetie... I liked the list.
man u are a sick person ..
sij sij sij u need to rethink the whole way u live ..
its so sad i really dont know where to start ..
seriously, i was laughing the whole way through ur list .. u dont believe in god .. u drink and ur proud of it .. and all the stupid remarks about u saying ur a charming person? u went out with alot of girls but u never fell in love with anyone .. yet u mention that u love so jenifer or who ever or what ever ther fuck u were babbling .. u love jewelry shopping for ur girlfriend
u love shopping for girlfriends what the fuck! are u saying .. this list is so lame, i dont even want to imagine a person like even exists .. u are a sad .. sad .. sad .. sad .. sad .. sad .. sad .. person
Dear Zorath 3000,
It’s ok bro, I don’t expect to make friends with the whole world.. I totally understand that you judge people, and I respect your kind.. I don’t care for your kind, but always treat them with respect, unlike your last comment. I may have one things to say to you though.. or to the people like you.. the ones that always see the glass half empty.. “To each his/her own” :)
Have a wonderful life, and a great new year..
so i would tell you my instant feeling about you.. like the image that came out after reading this post:
you are a religiously-distant, friendless/yet very very friendly/ adventourous if the chance exists/yet to find out where the hell are you pointing out.
and + not a cheater.
Vintage, welcome..
I don’t believe in religions, I believe in people.. Friendless !! sorry dear.. I have more friends than ever.. not all of them live in Kuwait though, but still in contact with them from all over.. Friendly !! I try to be.. and yes most of the time.. I hope.. but unlike you read from comments.. no I am no angle.. Adventurous !! you betcha.. Adrenaline junky as well.. Not a cheater !! on the money with that one.. :)
Interesting list, but I’m not sure whether to envy you on #39 or not :)
Insperation hits ;) this is nice .. I think I might do something similar soon .. not sure if it would be postable though!
but allow me to say, I will be looking at your list while making mine .. I feel obliged to share with you some of the things we criss cross at. would u like that?
Peache, It doesn’t have to be postable.. I can assure you that it would be an experience like no other.. to actually get things about your self out.. You’ll know what I mean when you do it.. And be careful, don’t read mine while making the list, it will have some kind of influence on what you write, specially when you feel you got out of ideas.. and you feel blank.. it’ll happen.. and you’ll get over it and keep on writing don’t worry..
One more thing, some people after reading this tried it out, and they ended up talking about their sisters and brothers and their lives.. don’t get side tracked as you could be .. focus on your self..
I would love it if you can share with me what ever you want.. no pressure though, I can see how this would be very hard to share with strangers.. but it is a feeling like no other.. :)
We could be friends :P
another thing...
Are you Satanic?
MNPD, no dear, I am not satanic.. I don’t believe in that either, I’m not angry with god, I don’t hate god, on the contrary, I respect all people believing in him/her.. I am not seeking attention by saying that I don’t believe in god.. I just wanted everyone to know that, so the judgmental people will definitely show their fangs, and I get to know them.. I wanted to come clean from the start, and like few, they just can’t take the fact that someone doesn’t believe with what they believe.. it’s sad really.. I'm in peace with my self
My dear, atleast you're no hypocrite going around pretending that you believe in something and not practice it !
I do believe that we are not here to judge one another, this is a personal thing as long as you don't harm yourself or anyone else, and you are at peace with yourself.
then my friend you trully know true happiness.
I hate religion, too, but I believe in God. I think that religion was just meant to separate people from God. If you think about it religion completely goes against the Bible. If I may be so bold, I know why you have never been in love. The Bible says that God is love, ipso facto, you will never know love without knowing God first. I'll completely ignore the fact that you claim to be atheist because I understand you are confusing God with religion becuse that's all religion does, confuses people. Just to let you know I know where you're coming from, I myself had a similar disposition concerning God and love. The difference is, I didn't believe love could exist between individuals I believed love could only exist between God and the individual. But it was just a defense mechanism because I knew that God couldn't hurt me, and people could. You see what I'm saying? Maybe I'll blog about it. What do you think? By the way, I appreciate the way you dealt with Zorath 3000, I'm such a coward I would have just deleted the comment.
Hi Sarah Katherine,
No you’re not being bold at all.. I totally repect your openion.. don’t agree, because there are lots of things behind the fact that I didn’t fall in love that you are not aware of, but that’s ok.. I enjoyed you comment..
On the other hand, it’s a long complicated subject, that I would rather take to e-mail rather than discussing it here.. and that’s what I will do..
And as far as Zorath 3000, it’s ok.. I checked his profile.. he’s young, and need allot more of life experience.. and believe me, I really wish him good luck in this world.. I have nothing to be paranoid about, to delete his comment… we have to see the good, the bad, and the ugly.. It’s part of our learning curve :)
Oh.. and welcome to my blog.. :))
Thanks, well feel free to check out mine, too. You have a great disposition and as hard as that is to obtain, it's even harder to maintain so I am impressed.
The Don,
Excuse me, but this is the first time I read any of your posts.. I just discovered u ;)..
I enjoyed your post greatly, and your courage.
Cheers
مبتدئ Welcome, maybe you just got to know of me, but I knew of you long time from the lands of sands.. ;)
I'm one of the silent peepers shshshsh !! LOL
Don,
I am new to Blogging and feel a little shy talking to ppl I don't know but I will spill my thoughts any ways. I am sitting here at work just munching on a carrot(trying to watch the weight thing too)and saw your blogs name off of Kuwait Unplugged's fav listings and decided to check out your site.I saw your list of 100 things and decided to read it to pass the time till I make a break for freedom. I thought your list would be idle and random thoughts put together to offer your readers some humor. But I actually found your 100 thoughts freighting and sentimental all at once. I think that putting what you feel in words makes you truly deal with thoughts and feelings instead of pushing them away to the dusty parts of your mind. I like that you were able to bare your thoughts to us your audience, no matter how personal or private they were. I hope it dosent sound trivial but I am sorry about your mother passing. No matter if they are cruel or caring the love you have for your mom is always constant and steady with no replacement. Don, keep up the dancing it's great exercise and good for the soul! Save me a dance, so that when I find my dancing shoes we can dance till the sun comes up, if I can last that long!
Corazon Dividido, although you might be uncomfortable talking to complete stranger, yet your words were so comforting.. thank you for stopping by, and I’ll definitely save you a dance, it’ll be my pleasure really, just tell me your shoe size, and I’ll get you one from the net LoOoL
Please keep on passing by.. :)
Hey :) Well I've been reading a bunch of blogs lately (yeah I'm a lurker or leecher or whatever it's called) but I have to say that your '100 things' is the most heartfelt article I've read. I mean, although you're a psuedo-anonymous person, it takes a lot of guts to 'bare all' especially if you're in Kuwait, where baring all is usually shunned upon. Oh and by the way, I'm starting tango lessons next tuesday ;)
Erzulie, how are your Tango lessons going??
What do I get for sitting reading this entire blog in a day.
And don't say get a life :)
Diamon, if I say get a life, I will include my self in that, but I should say welcome to my blog instead. :)
So I guess it's Nada.
Thanks for the welcome :)
I so agree with that whole 'gorgeous Jennifer thing!
i'm sory i know its ur life but i hope someday you'll understand the true meaning of God,islam and Faith becouse once u know God there is no way that u"ll stop believe in him i hope i reached u in some way and i'm truly sorry about ur mom i know how u feel i just lost my brother before 2 weeks!he's 18 years old so you got to think that someday at anytime ur gonna die no matter what so what are u going 2 do then and what are u going to say to ur creator!?thnx:p
fair blog dude, what made u not believe in God?
Dear hayhatta, I'd rather keep that to my self.. I never discuss politics nor religion on blogs.. :)
:)
متاكد انك كويتي ؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟؟
lolo, aha
Just surfing the internet...and came across your blog...wish there were more people like you in kuwait.. I haven't been to kuwait for 7 years now....studying in nova scotia....sorry about your mother....HAVE A GREAT DAY...ENJOY THE SUMMER HEAT...WERE EVER YOU ARE :-)
Wow.. I can’t believe people still check this post.. it’s most popular post I have ever written.. hehe.. and I didn’t even get to be creative in it.. I just listed facts..
Altameer, welcome to my blog, although I wrote my last post on new year’s day 2007, I am still around to welcome you guys.. thanks for your kind words, but I am about to leave Kuwait for good. The next few months will be my last in Kuwait. :)
Please, don’t be a stranger, hang around and read other posts if you’d like..
i think ur a great guy by heart,,, bs ur choosing the wrong path in life....
Dear hassawi,
Humans are all brought up to judge people and compare them to their surroundings.. other people would think that I have finally freed myself and I am on the right path.. it’s judgment.. we should learn not to judge. And just live and let live in peace.. :)
thanks for passing by.. this entry is still the hottest entry..lol
hey don... this is hassawi..
im not being judgmental,,, i just feel that the choices u make in life are making you feel lonely,, eventhough u r surrounded by frnds... cuz i went through that phase in my life (not that extreme though)... oo il7imdila im over it... i just feel tht ur lonely... thts all... alla ewafgek....
and it is a very hot post.... its kinda interesting.... ligafa
Hassawi,
Now who has a kind heart? Me or you? You’re so sweet.. btw, this list was written in 2004 (3 years ago), since then, many things changed.. I just want to assure you that I am not alone.. and neither lonely.. I have peace all over me.. and I have companions with me in my life.
Oh and lol @ ligafa..
Salute
im so glad ur settled in life... and that u have a companion! thts great.. and u should know, if ppl commented so harshly its only becuz they r concerned... oo il7imdila u found ur path in life oo ur satisfied... oo i think dayman everything works out fine in the end... u just have to work a little hard to get there:D
امبيه حرام عليك
لو صج اتحب امك
كنت اتصوم وتخاف ربك
والله كاسره خاطري امك
ترا ةوالله اتعذب لانها ماعرفت اتربيك عدل
الله يرحمها يارب
بليز..كنت بقول اخوي بس منت اخوي
بليز يافلان
اذا انت تكره الدينين والناس المتديينه وماخذ منهم موقف
اعرف انهم مايمثلون الدين
ولاتاخذ موقف منهم وتقفل مخك
تبي تشرب اشرب
اسكر عربد
بس لاتنكر ربك
كلنا نخطي
كلنا نسوي اشيا غلط
بس ترا فوقنا الله
والله قهر انك عاييش بينا
بيلز روح رد امريكا
ولايكون لك هالتاثير علينا..
لاحول الله ولاقوة الا بالله
المشكله لما اتيي من شخص غبي جاهل انقول هذا مايفهم
بس انت ياخي متعلم
تعرف بالعلم
تبي اثبت لك معجزات ربك
منو الي خلقك وخلاك اتنفس
ادري انه البوست احتمال شوي قديم
بس شسوي اخنقتني العبره
ولازم اتكلم او اكتب شي
مادري شنو حالك الحين بس الله يهديك ويهديني!
Dear Kla_AnSa, first and far most, welcome to my humble blog.
Guilt trips don’t affect me dear. Guilt trips is a method made to inflict a methodology on weak people.. you don’t have to like me as a person, you can judge me all you want, but you should know that I exist, and there are people who love me nevertheless. Please read my first comment to Hassawi. Have a great life.
Your brother in humanity and love which you might have forgotten when you said you are not my brother..
The Don ®
:) this post still affecting ppl...and they still judging u...agolek shy
aby some one like u, but not in the religious issues :P
in ur humanity ;)
Sweet al 3anan, I can't believe you are still sticking around here.. after all this time.. lol
believe me, I don't get bothered by the ones that judge me, cos when I read the rest of the comments, I see how there are so much more people that let go of the differences, and grabbed on to what makes us humans..
and as for your last request, hehehe,, sorry hun, it comes in a package.. :P
hehehe well am sticking around some blogs I like and u r one of them ;)
usually I disappear & come back to check..even if i didnt comment its enough for me 2 read and smile after..
as for my request mmmm its difficult but why not maybe I can change some of his thoughts (KERMAL EL HUMANITY) :Pp
Since u won't blog anymore so can we discuss some points from ur list?? If u dont mind akeed :)
22- I don’t think I’ll ever meet the right one for me in Kuwait, “lack of not going out and meeting new people, not trying offend Kuwaiti girls” (Is she Kuwaiti???) ;)
walla, i was hectic doin my coursework assignment and how on earth i end up reading your 100 things about your self. anway, i would say that i liked many of what you believe except -Now I hate extremists and religious people. and the most i hate really is you don't beleive in god anymore. well, i feel sorry about you. and this is a really one of the problem you have to solve in your life, please, don't take my word in offensive way just think about why you need to that. i dont want to tell you that you are wrong but think of your grand people and the old days how they use to be. and the most important thing, for a fact the parents will be question in the doomday for thier children and you dont want any harm to occur to your loved mother. bro. we are never perfect but i think you have met the wrong people over the course of your life that's why you became wicked in some of your point of view. all the best and take care.
ya. bytheway if you have any comments am happy to hear from you my mbl.00447833746298
Tally, thanks for passing by :)

1 thing kick on the work out

turra

proude to be a drinkr..wow immpresive..
gay and an alcoholic..
why dont we add a non muslim to ur resume..
bullshit..
be a man and stand for ur religon..
dot let other cultures infulunce ur heritag..
typical arab..
Dear PinkTacoQ8,
I have mentioned in the beginning that not all will like what they will read, I know that some will judge, and get bothered, I am at peace with that really.. I don't need to have the feeling of being loved by everyone, I have people in my life that love me unconditionally even with what you read about me.
as for what you mentioned, let me assure you, that if I were gay, I would have said it here, but sorry I am not, I am happily in a long term heterosexual relationship, Although I am sure you read that I have no problems with homo sexuality, I think it's a personal thing for the ones that they choose it, and it doesn't bother me at all.. I wish I can make you feel better, but unfortunately I can't..
Alcoholic!! hmm, I don't know where on the post it says that I am an excessive drinker, or have any signs of alcoholism, I only mentioned that I do enjoy the occasional drink when I am around a good crowd.. why you thought this was a sign of being an alcoholic, I have no clue really..
I love how I provoked you by saying Bull $h!t, (that explains how you were really try to say what you thought is hurtful when accused me of homosexuality and alcoholism, it makes sense, you are angry hahaha), although I never said a bad word towards you nor your religion, nor any insinuation in any way that is disrespectful to you, weird how people get offended when they know about a life of a different human being that is even anonymous on the net..
last but not least sweetie, believe me, having to say be a man, means nothing, cos having a penis is not what makes me a better person, I have many treats that makes me a good person, having a penis is not what makes me a better person, that doesn't make me anything..
I might be a typical arab to you for some reason, but for the hundreds of thousands that enjoyed my blog in the past years, I am a friendly charming guy, that is trying to live his live in the hardships, where everyone wants to change his life to the way they live theirs, and thankfully, this just makes me stronger.
Hey this is jiji..
For all of the people that didnt like u or ur blog and kept judging u and thought it was bullshit..i mean if they thought that then why did they waste their time reading and commenting ?
like come on people..when u say oh i don like this guy cuz he was that and he means this and he said that..it doesnt mean u dont like him..means he got u talkin basically caught ur interest..who are we kiddin?
i mean i know nothin more than u people know about this guy ..whether he is real or fake who are u to judge..and if u do believe in god then stop judgin people for god..let GOD do it..
heart and soul people..
cheers..
he's human and obviously he's free..
let him be..
jiji, :)
lovely words.. from a lovely person..
Don't worry, this doesn't effect me really.. I love my life, and I am more free today than I have ever been back in 2004 when I wrote this..
thanks for passing by :)
