I got a BlackBerry! Hooorrray!!!

This is being sent through its email system which is also great! Because I have many email accounts, personal, for friends, professional, and for my travel blogging too along with my subscriptions. I have been thinking always that most likely I was always going to get an iPhone since I am such a big fan of all apple products. But when my Mac broke down and I waited till I was traveling to the USA to fix it, I gave in to the PC because I was able to get a computer for a cheaper price because of the budget at the time. Anyways now - can't live without both of my computers the PC and my fixed Mac. Now in KSA everyone or let's say most people are carrying the BB (short for BlackBerry) especially with the special offer from STC of SR99/month. Its the never ending battle between the PC and the Mac and now between the BB and the iPhone. For now in my house the BB is on the lead. What's on the lead in your house? Or in your work? If ever that is a fair question since most companies want their workers to be carrying the BB. Write to you soon...

Leona Lewis "I See You" video أغنية الفيلم أفاتار ليونا لويس

Looking for a movie...watch "AVATAR" تبحث عن فيلم ... اءتفرج "على أفاتار



What to do on a weekend in Jeddah... hmmm..
Well, my family and I have a tradition. A movie night. Its a trend really since I was a teenager. We used to rent a movie every weekend, gather all together and watch. Remember the VHS. That trend continued even with marriges, kids and all. I, as you are probably aware by now is a movie fanatic. In montreal I didnt even care if I ever found someone to go with me to the movies or not. Most of the time I went alone on intended. I love movies so much I didnt want to be destracted, wispered to, or pay attention to anyone. I just wanted to watch the movie. Now any one who ever lived in Jeddah or is living in Jeddah have creative ways to get the new movies. Let me just say thank god for the internet or we would have been watching movies only if they came out on DVD or excuse me now I have to start saying Blue ray.. wich could mean months and months. I am sorry I just cant wait all that time.
This weekend the choosen movie was AVATARand it was such an exciting choice because everyone was waiting to see it. It had needed preperations.. the right dinner.. the right drinks.. and the right snacks... It was a great hit! cant wait for the original DVD.. opps Blue Ray to come out to add it to my collection of movies in my liberary.. yes its a keeper for sure...

Up in the Air performed live by Kevin Renick أغنية الفيلم تؤدى بمؤلف الأغنية كيفين رينيك

One of the main songs of the film "Up In The Air" performed live by the writer of the song and performed by him.

The lonely film "UP IN THE AIR" George Clooney amazing! فيلم مؤثر عن حياة وحيدة فوق السحاب مع جورج كلوني وأداء مؤثر


I just finished watching this movie Up In The Air
and I have really enjoyed it. Anyone who is on the move sometimes we feel like we are actually living in airports and I used to say it "Riding the plane to me is like taking a bus at a bus stop" I don't see the lines anymore and the procedures and the lines seem so natural to go through. I am automatic.. heck most of the times my bag was unpacked because I am flying again soon. Is it a lonely life.. yes just like the film portrayed. Anyone who is looking for a new good story in a film. I think will get it by watching this movie. I thought that the pace of the film would be slow but it wasn't.
It really hit my interest when you listen to all the stories of the people that are being laid off... the stories are real the fears were real... the need of hope was real...
All in all a superb movie worth all the good reviews and nominations that it had received.
