Gran Torino - Review





What need I say about this film? It is definitely one of the best since The Dark Knight. It is amazing. I liked how it was humorous but never got out of the line of the story's plot. Make no mistake this is a drama, but you will enjoy a couple of laughs here and there throughout the movie. To sum it all up: Clint Eastwood is stellar. GO SEE THE MOVIE!

Traffic Laws



We keep hearing everywhere we go how America is civilized, and have laws that everyone abides by. We also hear that they have the best well-thought rules and regulations. Let me tell you now that their traffic regulations and laws are utterly stupid. Anyone who has ever come to the states knows that we in Kuwait have better traffic laws (although we don't follow them). I just wanted to point this out since everyone keeps comparing Kuwait to other countries and it always comes out to be on the negative side.

Apple Customer Service Revised



So I had more problems on my Beats Headphones. I went back to the Apple store with a smile on my face because I knew I was dealing with the best customer service (considering what they did last time I had problems with the headphones). Apparently I was mistaken. Apple told me that I should contact Monster (the company that made the headphones) and tell them that I have problems with my headphones. WTF?? I mean it's an agreement between Apple and Monster, why should I be the one who contacts Monster? Now I'm stuck with a pair of headphones that don't work! Apple should've kept the headphones with them and they contact Monster and work out whatever they have to do, and then Apple would call me when I have a pair of working headphones. This is crap.

A couple of Things



First of all: How the hell do people use Zain e-go?? It SUCKS!! I've been using it for two weeks here in Kuwait, and it is so bad. I know that there has been a problem with the internet lately, but that's not the only problem. The device (e-go) is very sensitive and you have to keep on disconnecting it and reconnecting it to your laptop (that's if it didn't disconnect by itself. Anyways, bottom line: it sucks.

Second: I'm being delivered back to Ohio to continue my University journey. Expecting a lot now that I have been accustomed to the place. And yes, I can't wait for the snow there!

Lastly, I am in serious need of a digital camera. I'm pretty much looking at all sorts of cameras right now (I must admit: I don't exactly know what I want). I want to dive into the SLR stuff and become a photographing enthusiast, but then again, I'm not sure if I'm going to give it a lot of time. I also don't know if I need a digital camera or video cam. Yup, that's how much I'm lost!
