The Demon Drive...

highwaystreaking.jpg

When going to and from the Red Bull event I think K and I turned the highways into a race track. We were cutting back and forth like demons and I think the adrenaline got us going. At one point we were skidding around an empty round about as if it was a scene from too fast too furious.

After the meet was done we took the airport road down to the 5th ring road, flying around cars as if they were stationary! I was completely concentrating on the drive, and when we got onto the Malik Fahad Highway we were driving fast but not too crazy. Then K split to the right and I was on the left and I saw a cop creep up behind me, and within a split second I decided to take-off. There was no way he could catch up with me, I flew and we had a few very close calls. K already took the first exit and I was flying, when he switched on his lights I was already 400 meters away, he couldn’t catch up no matter what he did, too much traffic. When we exited he wasn’t even in view, and too many cars between us! One hell of a drive!

Two things could happen:

  • If he got my plates then he can have my license suspended, and I would deny that I was driving!
  • If he didn’t get my plates then I’m free flying!
The Red Bull Meet Kuwait...

We went for the meet at the Kuwait Scientific area off the Sixth Ring Road around 6:45pm. We were there early to check out the scene. We know that Imperial 27 is unbeatable and we were there to destroy the moral of the competition. The Red Bull marketing team was there to meet us and they were very nice, we had a few technical questions which they answered for us and it was pretty cool. Out of 151 teams only 41 teams get to participate, and we have 25 meters of runway to jump off of. Now our work out session will be starting to get things going.

There were a lot of the little Red Bull vehicles parked outside, and it took us a little while to get out because of the traffic.

Surprise Plan...

Sometimes its always good on a weekend to do something different, and myself and a few guys are going to do something different for sure.

We want to watch Transformers so we have decided to fly to Dubai and go for a movie marathon for the hell of it. Everything is being done on the fly, and we are just going to wing it until there, trying to figure out which hotel to stay at and when we are coming back. We found a good deal so Emirates, cheaper then Jazeera so we are going for it, going on Thursday and coming back on Friday.

I will probably go to the Borders and check it out as well. This is going to be funny.

Risk Night...

It was a long day and I was feeling drained but I was looking forward to hanging out with some of the guys from work. Before starting Risk we were playing Pro Evolution Soccer for the first few hours, laughing at the mishaps and how bad some of us are. Then we all ate dinner as everyone arrived even a little late, but as soon as we were done people were getting ready.

We opened up the deck and all the colors given out, people were looking at each other thinking who is going to be the others enemy. From the moment I put things on the map I knew that I had to take North America, and I had a few pieces of land in the middle. I was fighting to take North America and keeping myself within that boundry so that I only face people on three fronts, but I had some gentlemens agreement with some people. I didn’t hit them and they didn’t hit me so we concentrated on other fronts. By playing my cards right and having the right amounts I managed to amass a huge army on all three fronts and was a force to reckon with. I struck fear in the eyes of all those who faced me with my endless amounts of military men, and people were still battling it out in Europe and Africa!

It was fantastic, there was one guy that I kept hitting because when he gets mad I just keep laughing ridiculously. I love Risk because of the mix of strategy, luck, tactics and pure entertainment. I don’t mind just watching because of the way some people get worked up and the crazy strategies. It was a nice night for sure!

The Day-In...

After going to the doctor and taking the medication I knew that I was feeling really tired so I was going to take a bit of a nap before going over to my cousin’s to watch a few shows. I slept from 5:00pm until 6:45pm and I really did feel better after taking that nap, at least I felt a bit recharged and gave the medication some time to work on my stomach. I spoke to my cousin and told him the only way I’m coming is if he has the shrimp chow mien ready for me tonight or else heads will be falling off!

I was still feeling tired but a lot better, at least I didn’t feel nauseated and my head wasn’t spinning. My cousin and I just finished Jericho so we had a couple of options as to what series to watch:

  • Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip
  • Day Break

We started Studio 60 and I knew it was going to be good, but I didn’t expect to be this damn good. Its one hell of a show with a great cast, at that point my cousin was thinking about skipping work and having a Studio 60 marathon to watch all 22 episodes in one go. So now we are watching this, and it is one hell of a show. Then came the shrimp chow mien, and I was a happy camper, I was eating and everything felt steady so I was happy about that. When we finished later at night I was taking my time on the drive home since I didn’t feel like I was up to driving like a F1 driver.

Saturday Dewaneya!...

As usual I was passing by my cousins dewaneya on saturday night, and it was something I was looking forward to even though I didn’t feel like putting anything in my stomach at that point. As we were sitting down a lot of discussion on different subjects came up, and things were going on as usual with banter going back and forth. At one point some of the guys were badgering my cousin regarding something he promised them, I was intrigued since it was getting entertaining. Then he pulled out one bag, then the other guy asked where was his, then he pulled out a second bag, then the third person asked where was his, and he pulled a third bag. All of that just like he was Santa Claus, I wanted him to pull out another bag just for the hell of it.

I didn’t know what was in the bags but as we were passing them to their recipients I took a look inside the bag and it turned out to be the Philips Bodygroom. I was laughing my head off, they were all getting that machine. I didn’t think that is what they wanted, but it was a funny turn of events. After that they hid it from everyone’s view to make sure if any unknown person walked in they wouldn’t see a bunch of bags with these items inside!

My Day...

I was having a long day and wasn’t sure if I could head over to my cousin’s place so I asked him if he could come by to my place to grub and watch some Jericho, this was early in the afternoon. I told him the day before that I might have a few things come up, and as it happened everything came up.

Since he is a lazy bum he refused to come over to watch Jericho, and I had no plans for later in the evening but I wasn’t sure what was going to happen. After going through the day I had meetings until 6:50 pm, I called my cousin then to tell him I would come over if he had Shrimp Chow Mein ready for me when I arrive at 9:00pm. After that conversation I headed to over to pick up my suit, and I have to say I look good in the suit overall I just need to shave and every thing will be good. I felt like one of those guys from the Sopranos with their pinstripe suits, and closing only the top button.

Then I went home and I had a few things to finish up, I managed to leave the house at 9:00pm I called to ask him to delay dinner 15 mins. I flew like demon because I was so hungry, my last meal was the day before at 6:20 pm, so all I could think about was the Chow Mein. When I arrived both my cousins were sitting in the basement watching lost, and they were giggling about something. Then they told me the cook was on holiday and there was no food, at that moment I felt like killing both of them. They said they ordered persian food from 6alabat.com, I didn’t care I wanted the Shrimp Chow Mein. The food wasn’t there I was walking out and my cousin was chasing after me not believing that I was leaving. At that point I would have settled for McDonalds and headed home, to watch Jericho another day. He ran up after me and he sat in my car and wouldn’t leave. As we were arguing the food arrived and I decided to be stubborn and got down, throughout this whole process I did find my predicament funny but I also wanted to beat them to a pulp. The food wasn’t good at all but I was too hungry to care, and during the second episode of Jericho I passed out but I watched it again at home when I got back. This time they won’t the battle, but they are now going to deal with war!

Constant Movement...

This weekend was one of those time where I just kept going from point to point doing something. Wednesday I came back after work and went right to the basement for some gaming before the arrival of the guys.

We started watching a movie after dinner but nobody really cared about it as much as the desert later in the evening. I don’t think anyone left without being full of ice cream.

There was a variety of ice cream this time but a few favorites by ranking:

  1. Strawberry Cheese Cake
  2. Pralines ‘n Cream
  3. Gold Medal Ribbon
  4. Orange Sherbert

I was feeling tired but it was nice hanging out with the guys, and I stayed up late again watching anime.

Thursday was a short workday since I finished most of everything during the week, they were supposed to deliver Pyro later in the day so that was something to look forward to. I decided to go out for drive and pick up the movie tickets to Die Hard 4.0 since we were going to go and I didn’t mind getting them. I got in my car and just switched on the music and enjoy the A/C and nice drive, the roads were somewhat empty so that was something to enjoy.

Then I passed out by 10pm, I couldn’t even keep my eye open past that, I woke up early in the morning for the ride with the book next to me and the laptop with a dead battery. So then I got up to get ready for the early morning ride.
