Missed Me?

317803-twin-towers-kuwait-0.jpgDon't ask where I've been for the past two months.. cuz I wouldn't know where to begin to be honest. Am I back again? Probably not. Just wanted to pop by to say hi and that I'll try my best to start writing again. No promises though :)

I'm currently in Kuwait & enjoying my time catching up with some friends. To those girls I've seen, it's been WONDERFUL seeing you! You're simply amazing.

Axis of Evil - Dubai (Part II)

soldout.jpgI am so disappointed! I can't believe how impossible Showtime Arabia and the Organizers have made it for people outside of Dubai to get tickets to the Axis of Evil Comedy Tour.

As explained in my previous post, tickets sold out on the first night. After many calls and inquiries, we were told that more shows will be added. Great.

So I sit and monitor their site (must've hit refresh a billion times!) and they finally announced that tickets will go on sale Monday 26/11 at 10 am in the MOE. I called and the lady told me that they're not placing the tickets on sale online. I have to get someone to personally go get the tickets and it's 2 tickets maximum per person!

After chasing down everyone I know in Dubai, one of my friends said she'll find a way to get the tickets today. Just got a call from her now saying that tickets are ONLY on sale for those who were wait-listed and who'd gotten an sms from Showtime. Whatever is left, will then go on sale tomorrow for the general public.

Seriously?! Why didn't anyone say there's a waiting list and why advertise it if it only concerns those who got the sms? I'm so annoyed by this, I've totally lost interest in going to see the show.

Axis of Evil - Dubai

The Axis of Evil Comedy Tour will be in Dubai Nov 27 - 29. I got really excited as I should be in Dubai around that time. I checked online and the tickets were to go on sale in Dubai on Nov 20th and online starting Nov 21st.


As of 11 pm Bahrain time last night (midnight Dubai time) I sat myself in front of the net and started clicking and refreshing, waiting for the tickets to go on sale. Eventually around 2 am, I gave up and went to sleep. Throughout the night, I kept waking up up and checking, nothing.. nada!



This morning, I checked a few more times until I got a bad feeling about it. Called Dubai, and lo' and behold, SOLD OUT! They all sold out last night! I'm so upset that I never even had a chance! I was sooo looking forward to this.

Home Sweet Home

I've been lazy since I got back from Dubai. Looks like I got bit by the tse tse bug again! Can't get enough sleep.

The business trip was a success overall. But enough about work..

Stayed at the Emirates Towers and it was nice. The never ending supply of Toblerone they offer was a nice bonus! I got upgraded to the "Chopard Floor", which is an all female floor made to 'pamper' women. I took some pics but too lazy to upload them now. Perhaps later.

Had dinner at Marina Walk Saturday night. The weather was gorgeous, view amazing, and atmosphere relaxing. Oh, and food was pretty good too. I also got to watch "The Kingdom". I really enjoyed the movie.. thought it was very well done!

All in all, a great trip. Planning on a repeat by month's end inshAllah.

So, anyone got a cure for this constant tired state I'm in these days?
