New town!
This year for Ashara, i came to mombasa, Kenya. Today being the first day of the new islamic year, there was majlis held at burhani masjid's mawaid. The official crowd was supposed to be 500, but more than a 1000 came. After the pehli tarikh majlis some mumineen were blessed with qadambosi. After about an hour and half of that moula ended the majlis and blessed mumineen who were waiting outside for his dedar. Nawu saal mubarak ane khaas dua ni iltimaas.

United Networks is down
Since yesterday my internet (United Networks) was kind of slow so I thought there might be some thing wrong with my computer, then I went to my laptop for checking and, well, it was slow there too. Since it was after late in the night the help center was closed. I called the help center today and they said they were linking with their parent company overseas.
Upon asking them how much time will this take, they had no idea (lame), and it apparently will take a week'ish to fix this. Does it take this long to do this job? Can't they route all their lines to some other location which is fast and when the job is done they can re-route the lines to their main systems?

Forza Motorsport 2
Things did not exactly go as I said in the last post, that I will buy the game that day but I did the next day. Now about the game, well what can I say; It was Editor's pick on Gamespot and that speaks for itself. I didn't want to waste any time to create a career so I jumped in in the Arcade mode which allows you to play exhibition matches. Everything is just better than any other car racing game I have ever tried. My Forza Motorsport 2 game was a Special Collector's edition which had a Bonus Disc containing all the updates of the game after its initial release.
Tip: I found out that games should not be bought from major stores like Alghanim or Eureka but should be bought from Rihab complex itself. I was offered this game for KD 25 in Alghanim Electronics and I got the same game in KD 18 in Rihab!

All New XBOX 360 Pro
So Thursday 4th Dec was the last working day at university and I couldn't wait for my XBOX 360 to come to me. I had a friend who told me he would help me get a good deal but since he was busy, I took up the challenge and headed out to Rihab complex in Hawalli, also known as the gaming center. After scouting around for a good 2 hours, I got a good deal at a shop, so I went ahead and bought the XBOX 360 Pro console, the one with new chips and a 60 gig HDD, a voltage converter, 1 extra controller, and the game i always wanted to play, PES 2009.
I plan on getting 2 more games today, I am thinking Gears of War 2, and Forza Motorsport 2. I saw the reviews on Gamespot and both were Editors picks. Since they are top on gamespot, I believe I won't be dissapointed.
