Who wants to guess what's on fire? |
On this blog, we (my ego and I) preach about love and acceptance. Today is the first day of February, so that being that, I OFFICIALLY declare February to be the 'Month Of Love'. What does this mean, you wonder? Well, it means a lot. It includes, but is not limited to, the following:
- Posts discussing the reality of dating (and things of that nature) in the Middle East, Kuwait specifically.
- My favorite
lovesongs and why I like them (Yes, feminists have feeling too) (Sometimes). - Love songs I find to be ridiculous and just straight up stupid (Bruno Mars, I'm looking at you).
- Patriotism, and what it means (It's a form of love, and Kuwait's national holidays are in February, so I'm still with the theme).
Why it is my dream todie alone and husband-less- All and any other random philosophical bullshit that I come up with.
Yes folks, I've decided to inject my blog with a healthy dose of tear-inducing estrogen because February is, if nothing else, a month of bullshit and promises. Oh, and love (I always forget that last one). So, I'll do my best to post daily and keep it relevant to Kuwait all while being fun. By fun, I mean ridiculously inappropriate... Or clever... Or both.
Moving onto today's post: The Implications of A Glance
In honor of of all the crazy shit I see on Gulf road and Valentine's day, and being the deluded blogger with a God complex creative genius that I am, I've decided to score the stereotypical Kuwaiti fling using lyrics from various songs I have on my iPod. The themes are love, exchanging numbers, phones, money, driving, highways, stolen glances etc.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you a Kuwaiti love affair from start to finish.
I apologize in advance Enjoy.

PS - How did you interpret the story? You know where the comments go.
Never seen someone with that much time in their hands.
ReplyDeleteInterpretation: Starts with a stare, ends with a broken heart. Need to continue the story with some 'y u cheat on meh' lyrics.
The first part of your comment is lacking in manners. Did you ever consider it's something I've been working on over the course of a few days?
ReplyDeleteWhat does take time? Reading blogs and then leaving inconsiderate comments.
Gulf Road No BBQ Sign? First i thought it's something anti-valentine..with that bbq stand appearing as bed (boy and girl already burnt to ashes..) oh and i wanna add one more song..if i may(don't sue me) 50cents, Candy Shop !
ReplyDeleteWell it starts with love at first sight, talking, talking, more talking, stop, marriage proposal, less talking, even less talking, more nagging, break up. Rinse and repeat.
ReplyDeleteThat's how i saw it! and BTW: you overreacted :p
My apologies, lacking manners were never part of my intentions, it's no shock this took days of unproductive hours to make. But it turned out entertaining!
ReplyDeleteReading blogs and leaving inconsiderate comments is actually the least time consuming process. Sorry you saw it that way.
Wahab - You completely captured the demise of their romance. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteKuwaitiful - "...days of unproductive hours..."?
I'm just going to go ahead and assume this has less to do with how I spend my time and more to do with your general way of phrasing things.
However, your apology is accepted because it is, after all, the 'Month of Love'. You're always welcome to stop by this blog.
Peace
Fahad - So sorry, I just saw this comment.
ReplyDelete'Candy Shop'...? I'll admit to liking that song in grade 6. Come on man, Gulf Road needs CLASSICS. Think, 'I like Big Butts' by Sir Mix-A-Lot. :p
