Longest phone call ever.
Today, me and my respected friend talked for a total of 1 hour and 50 seconds. We were just talking about everything in our lives and we realized that we were talking for 50 minutes. We were astonished on how the heck we talked for that long. So, we decided to talk even more. We finally hit the marker of 1 hour and 50 seconds. Sadly, I was disappointed. the phone was like 59:59 and instead of hitting 60 reset to zero. Whatever happened, Batelco is on my ass now. They're probably going to make me pay trillions of dinars.
Metal Gear Solid 4 review
How should I start this? I am just too filled with awe to start reviewing this game. I think MGS1 is the best, MGS3 was near the best, and MGS2 was ridiculously messed up, but was still good. MGS4 is not mentioned. I believe it is in a league of its own. A certain league of awesome. Where should I start?
GAMU PLAYUZAR:
Haha! Totally got you, I won't write in wannabe Japanese writing. But seriously,
Gameplay:
I think gameplay is a very great awesome aspect of this game. To be frank, it is just awesome. From the heated stress of a stray mortar explosion missing you by inches to slowly stalking a building infested with mines to avoiding contact with a very heavy ring of patrolling troops to a Stryker chase to running away from Gekkos destroying a marketplace to following a resistance member secretly to a bike chase to- you get the idea about the thrilling moments.
But what also made this game are the choices. You could sneak to the destination like nobody's business, ala the previous MGS games. You could take a hiding place and make your trusty Mk.II stun everyone silently. You could open your heart to the rebels and take out the PMC troopers. Or, you could completely join the battle with the rebels. If you're a real ass, you could just kill everyone, but beware, no man has done this alive on the harder difficulties. But, pussies who play on Liquid Easy do this all the time.
Graphics:
The graphics for this game are truly phenomenal. Infact, I wasn't really viewing MGS4 as a game, I was viewing it as a blu-ray HD movie because the graphics are so fucking premium. No other game has given me as much visual pleasure as this one.
You must see to believe. This is one of those games that just speak for themselves. The graphics are too hard to describe. Shall I say, too awesome.
Story:
Spoilers!!
The story is what makes this game come alive. It is basically one of the best stories in the whole history of gaming. At first when I played this game I was excited. I was extremely hyped at the "War has changed" new theme. However I was disappointed. It was like this game has turned into an FPS. However, as you got your gear and Mk. II, the game went uphill. The rebel friendliness thing made the game even more uphill. The Drebin Points system was awesome. With the Meryl/Johnny reunion and FROGS fight, the developers just reached the limit of awesome. It just kept getting better. The Beauty and the Beast debut was just awesome.

Fecking House of Uniform.
House of Uniform. The only damn place in all of Bahrain where you can actually get school uniforms. We went in mid-July. That is considered very early. We escaped from the late August rush(Dozens of people cramped in the store, waiting to get their uniforms) to get our uniforms. Guess friggin what? "Uniforms will be ready at 2- September." I don't mean second of September. I mean in the 20th days. Apparently, it gets more and more late each time you check on the timing. The latest timing, I believe, is 28th of September. School starts at 13th of September.
Problem number one: our schools are MERCILESSLY strict about these uniform regulations. There is not one bit of mercy in their hearts. If any uniform enforcer of the school saw me writing about this, they would probably get me suspended(AGAIN) rather than use the magical solution: MERCY. Mercy comes in 120mg tablets, however, it has been cut off from Bahrain's schools. That is why the "Enforcers" of our schools call our parents to take us home when we wear the wrong uniform. Even if it has the school logo on it, forgetting to wear the wrong uniform can get you in serious trouble. And if your parents don't pick you up, you could be sitting on your ass for hours until school time finishes, or, you could actually be sent back to class if you're lucky.
I don't know who to blame. House of (fecking) Uniform for being so late or our schools for being ultra strict. I choose not to blame my school, thanks to an earlier happening, but, I kid you not, if I was never punished, I would probably be unleashing the flames of anger from my heart now. What you see now is limited opinion. The Enforcers are watching me.

Blogging has changed.
Modern innovation of blogging tactics has brought it upon our new generation to secure blogging in its rightful place of...
In all seriousness, welcome to the blog. I've been meaning to make a blog for generations. But I'm not that interested in the internet after the great crash of April '09. I did something dumb. A direct insult to the school. Don't worry, though, I won't do any of that crap again, BUT, I WILL post blog entries of problems in the school. I would like to give out a final sorry to Hawar International School. I was subjected to in-school suspension for 1 whole week. But I survived by reading the first editions of the Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter, and Artemis Fowl. I also made it halfway through The Chamber of Secrets. But nevermind that, this blog is about MY life, not some school, which I dare not even MENTION in this blog, whether it is about its goodness, badness, or stupidness, because the moment scarred me.
