معرض الكتاب الدولي 2014 - الكويت

انا من الناس اللي أحب اقرأ وايد ان كان كدراسة او كترفيه

بالأول ما كنت أحب الا انواع معينة من الكتب مثلا :

كنت أحب الروايات بس ما اقرأها بأنواعها لازم بنمط معين 

و الشعر نفس الشي و كذلك كتب علم النفس

لكن الحين اقرأ كل شي تقريبا حتى لو ما احبه بس كتغيير

و أجرب شي جديد ، أفكار جديدة، لغة و أساليب متنوعة

و معلومات مختلفة أكيد و وجهات نظر 

تعودت كل عام لازم اروح معرض الكتاب أشوف شنو الجديد

أقابل كتاب و أتناقش معاهم و أسولف 

مهما اروح مكتبات بس عندي معرض الكتاب شي غير 

و من الضروري أني اروح له كل عام

للأسف السنة اللي فاتت ما قدرت احضر 

ليش ان كان عندي دراسة و ما خلصت الكؤوس عشان أرد الكويت 

هال سنة لحسن حظي أنهيت اختباراتي مبجر و لحقت على المعرض

و على ما وصلت و خلصت اشغالي كان باقي بس يوم واحد اللي أهوا اليوم الأخير

فما قدرت افتر وايد و أشوف وايد كتب و أتناقش مع كتاب كثار

ولا قدرت احضر حفل تواقيع زملائي اللي كنت متشوقة أني اقابلهم 

بس الحمدلله قدرت أخذ جم كتاب جديد وحضرت معرض مرتب

لاحظت هالسنة بعد ما شاء الله الإقبال كبير و قاعد يزداد سنة عن سنة

لكن في كتب كثيرة احسها تجارية أكثر من انها تكون ادبية ثقافية

و هالشي احتمال اناقشه بعدين معاكم 

بهالبوست حبيت اكتب لكم أسامي الكتب و الروايات اللي حصلتها و اخذتها.

حصيلتي من معرض الكتاب الدولي في الكويت لعام 2014 :

و بس هذه حصيلة الكتب اللي قدرت اخذها بظرف ساعة و نص 
في كتب ما حصلتها كانوا خالصين ما شاء الله و في منهم نسيتهم 
و ما ذكرت الا لما رجعت البيت أني ما أخذتهم 
عالعموم الكمية تعتبر نسبيا كبيرة و حلوة 
و كالعادة بكتب رأيي فيهم بالمدونة بعد 

و اذا قارين شي حلو كتبوا لي اسم الكتاب تحت بالتعليقات 
و هم اذا قارين شي من الكتب كتبوا لي آراءكم عنها 

Opps

Apparently I've changed the blog's theme

I was thinking of changing it long time ago

I felt that it's time to have a brighter one a theme that isn't so dark anymore

But yet it was never meant to choose this theme.

I only wanted to inlarge it to see it clearly and ended up with this by mistake.

I'm not having much time to check on the blog everyday nor to write something new as I wish to do.

So I thought to just leave the theme as it is for now and use the time I get free to write something as I'm supposed to do.

So this will be the new theme till the unknown and since it's a basic theme from blogger I might mix it up from time to time xD just so I won't get bored with it.

Yup and that's it for now.

My next post - hopefully gonna post it this week- will be about the books I bought from the book fair this year.

Rants / Suggestions

Hi again, 

its been a while since i last posted something 

especially personal posts, rants, some of my writings, etc... 

I have been busy lately and every time I decide to write something new

something new comes up. 

So apparently I've been postponing posts for a year or so, 

since i started university basically.

This post is all about ranting ;p

I thought to share some of my ideas as well of what I'm hoping to start writing again since I really do miss blogging.

These are my thoughts of future posts:

1. Life as an abroad student in Australia 

    - Tips , do's and don'ts

2. How my university is , the study of Pharmacy basically.

3. Easy recipes maybe that every lazy student could do.

4. Im sharing what I write in Insatagram and Twitter ( favorite)  but not posting them here - the new ones- so I thought to post those here as well, as a reference to me so all my writings could be in one place as well to all of you readers - if I have any now - :/ xD

5. Im still happy to post advertisements for anyone who would want / like me to put up an add for them but the project should be in Kuwait or in Gulf Countries. 

You could reach me here in the comments below 

or click on the contact button on the upper Left.

As well as direct message me on Instagram / Twitter 

6. I want to post a list of the books I bought this year.

7. My reviews of the books that I have already read.

Thats about it. This is whats on my mind right now.

If you have any suggestions write them bellow 

Thank you ;$

ps: Im thinking to change the theme .. Im starting to dislike the dark background wanting something more light, bright and cheerful.

Tell me what you think

Off to Australia p4

Off to Australia p3

So here we are again. 

Heading to Australia, Melbourne Tullamarine Airport to be precice. 

In this flight I didn't get any sleep 

Instead I watched couple of movies

First movie was : 

Pitch Perfect

That was ok Not a must to see -.-

And the second movie was :

The Odd Life of Timothy Green

Now that movie I liked 

It had a nice story

And interesting to watch.

Of course they brought us meals that I don't remember now :p

But they were all delicious.

Including the snacks.

When the movies were over 

Not much time was left to see another movie.

So I just watched some TV series like : 

Friends 

2 Broke Girls

The big bang theory

And some disney series as well

We arrived earlier than expected to Melbourne

I think the flight was meant to be there at 8:35 AM

And we landed at 8:05 AM

If I wasn't mistaken.

Any ways before we land they gave us this yellow slip of paper.

An English one .. but this is an arabic one for the arabic readers :p

And the future Scholarists ;p

We finally got off the plane.

We went and took our luggage.

Guides and Help are all over.

And also there are some people who come and ask you if you have any food

or anything from the list that you checked in.

And after that they stamp on your yellow card.

Long line to wait until our turn is up.

After the Australians were in they opened another path for us 

Now any citizen could go to national or the Australian row.

They ask you couple of questions like the one  

written in the card.

Compare your passport pic to you :p

And let you in.

If you had an online passport that didn't show.

They take you to a counter next by them just to check and then let you in.

On your way out of the luggage and passport area they take the yellow card from you.

If you need any help you could ask the counter with the volunteers 

They are actually for universities but they come and ask you 

If you need any help or assistance even though your not a student.

After that we bought a sim card and went for breakfast at Nando's 

until the bus came since I need to go to 

Bendigo Airport Station

After we finished eating breakfast.

We went just out the airport to where the bus is going to come and waited there.

The Bendigo Airport Station Bus arrived

We bought a ticket and off we went.

It was a 2 hour trip till the station.

The bus driver called a taxi so we could go home.

Yaay finally arrived.

Took a shower to freshen up.

Then went out to open an account and enroll at Tafe.

Then home to sleep !! 

That's all folks ;p

Off to Australia p3

Off to Australia p2

So Here we are again 

The plane landed at Dubai 

We have 3 and a half hours to spend in the airport

It looked different to me since I haven't been to Dubai airport since summer 2009-2010 

After 9th grade I mean

We had to check in to get our seat numbers at first 

After that we had a look around.

Went to duty free and bought a magazine and a book I'll be writing my feed back about after I finish reading it.

Almost an hour or so left for the gate to open.

So we went to sit near the gate.

Chatted a little with friends and family.

Then time to go in ;p 

Went in .. sat a little until the crew started to call us by the order of the seats.

We're in :P 

EK - 404 -

Dubai to Singapore/Melbourne (Australia)

About 17 hours

I don't remember what meals they gave us exactly but they were all good ;p

And the snack I don't know about because I fell a sleep after the first meal xD 

First I finished watching :

Here comes the boom 

It was good I guess.

After that I watched Hotel Transylvania

I liked it .. It was pretty funny !

I woke up couple of times because of the annoying kid who wouldn't stop crying !!

Then after 5 hours - I think-  I was really up

Ate lunch I guess and rewinded the rest of the film that I slept while it was running xD

The flight was about 10 hours 

I got a gift in that flight as well ;p

I was still dizzy when a cute girl from the crew came to wish me luck in my studies.

Apparently she was talking with my mom when I was  a sleep.

She said goodbye as we were going out.

As well as the young man from the crew

After that we had to stop at Singapore airport.

They let us down to clean the airplane and change the crew

So we went out into the airport 

Got into the rest rooms to freshen up.

I've noticed they had recycle bins that looked amazingly interesting.

Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of them.

But I found the pic in google :P

I liked the idea of it.

After maybe 30 min the gate opened again

They asked us to show our visa with the passports 

And Off we went ;p

Next Post 

The rest of the Flight 

And 

Hello Australia ;p
