"Had the worst sandstorm in Kuwait. *Possibly*
I got stuck in the cafe I was at with my friend for 3 hours. Managed to take some photos for the buildings outside and because I only had my 50mm with me, couldn't take wide photos but you can tell what was really going on by the photos on my Flickr page [scroll down]
It was coming inside a closed place and taking a deep breath was impossible. Lungs shut down and stop you from inhaling!
People coming in out of nowhere knocking on the door of the cafe... the whole "refugee" feel in the place and the windspeed of around 100mph". Taken by Socceraholic

"...they might not be permanent. but they were beautiful. and they were there, for some time. they might not be there after 2 or 3 hours. but when i passed they were there. just like human emotions. they might exist at one point of time. but not other moments after or before. we're like walls. some people come and paint or carve on us. and it's up to us if we decide to remove these markings on the wall or repaint it again with different color, or keep those markings on our hearts and people will see them every time they look at us. :)
so, do you repair your walls every now and then?
- late night/early morning upload. these kind of stuff always reflect the mood i'm in. i know this is not the most perfect of shots, but it's not based on math. it's based on art. and the idea of 'art' or the definition of it is different to different perspectives, just like everything else in life".

"Mr.Fish: Seriously? What is this thing you pointing out at me? What? You gonna kill me?
Me: No Mr.Fish. I just love your colours and thank God that your handsomeness is this easy to be seen.
Mr.Fish: So yeah, you happy now? You wanna paparazzi me? *not sure how he knew Paparazzi without knowing the camera*
Me: No Mr. I just love that you're a beautiful creature. :)
Mr. Fish: HELL YEAHH I am! Now, go home and go to sleep boi or i'm gonna call my bodyguards!
Me: Ok man, Ok. just take it easy! Life is easy if you keep your cool attitude. Be a little laid back and put a smile man. Smile for your life and you'll be happy. Cry about it and nothing will ever make you happy, unless you decide to be!".
