Dido Update: Info On Her Child But What About The Album?

Dido Updates her Facebook account and explains to us about the name of her child. Unfortunately there is no news about her new album :( but there is some info about her new-born child :)

She says:
"... Happy 2012 everyone! I hope it's amazing for you. Thanks so much for all your lovely messages and birthday wishes too. And for all those asking where stanley got his name - we chose stanley because it's been my absolute favourite name from back when I was a teenager and then coincidentally it was my husband's too! And his middle name william is after my dad. See you all very soon. Love, didoxxx..."

Dido Update: She Gave Birth

I had recently just signed in on Facebook and I got an update from Dido's Facebook page. This is what she said:

"...I wanted to wish you all a very happy christmas. I'm ridiculously excited about stanley's first christmas this year! :) Hope you all have a brilliant one and I'm looking forward to seeing everyone in 2012... Love, didoxx..."

 So also in case any of you didn't know, it's also Dido's Birthday :) :) :)
Also judging by the comment, I think she has already given birth to a baby boy named Stanley as well, since their going to be celebrating his first Christmas together. And I think she's also going to be releasing the album extremely soon in 2012 *Fingers Crossed* :)

Update:

 Wikipedia has actually updated their website and this is what they wrote:
"...In February 2011, Dido posted a message on her official website, explaining to fans that she would not perform at the 83rd Academy Awards because she was pregnant and was expecting a baby with her husband Rohan Gavin. Dido gave birth to her son Stanley on July, 2011..."


So it's official that she gave birth :) :) :)

If Two Can Keep A Secret:

Here is an interesting show to watch, it's called "Pretty Little Liars". The story is based on 4 girls: Hanna, Emily, Spencer and Aria (it starts from left to right - look at the picture above). This is about 4 friends that join together after many years to face an unknown person by the name of "A", Who threatens to reveal every single one of their deepest and most darkest secrets. So these girls are trying to unravel the mystery between "A", who also murdered their best friend.
It's a very good show to watch. In my opinion, this show has a twist to it, you need to use your logic to find out who is "A" and what his or her's plans are.

Next Update Coming Shortly :)

So Many Things To Do, But Where Is The Time?

I have so many things to do nowadays. First, the semester is finally coming to an end, this is the final week of classes and then we get Christmas day and New Years off, followed by 3 straight days of final exams (Which I've been studying like crazy for). It's just so over-whelming to be finishing the semester, especially during the cold days in the U.A.E. and then go celebrate once the finals are over.
Now moving on, also this autumn I found that there are so many interesting TV shows out there to watch. Some of them include: "Pretty Little Liars", "2 Broke Girls", "The Walking Dead", "Ringer" and much more. Also I found so many interesting movies to watch such as "Insidious", "Paranormal Activity 3", "Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol", "Tower Heist", "Hostel 3" and the list goes on and on.
There is just no time to watch all of these. It's as if this semester is too long and complicated, with quizzes and an increase in assignments. And where is the time to blog?  Don't worry it's not like I'm quitting blogging. I will continue blogging on a monthly basis and probably from January 15- January 25, I'll be adding a couple of updates as well for all 10 days :)

Now I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Have a Happy New Year

I will be adding another update on December 24th :)

December Post:

Hey everyone, how are you doing? I hope all of you are doing alright. Now I know I haven't been posting a lot on my blog. It's just that I have been really busy at the university. The next couple of semesters are going to be extremely hectic, so I won't be able to go and blog until they give us some days off.
Speaking of days off, it's UAE"s 40th National Day today :D :D :D :D

Happy National Day UAE :D :D :D

Here is a picture that I had photoshopped a couple of years ago....lol, now since it's national day, I posted this picture as my Facebook profile and a bunch of my friends commented on it....they did say some good things about it but they were also shocked, I might add.

Anyways I'll be posting another update in the middle of December, probably on a Thursday or Friday. I would also be posting a couple of music videos as well. Please check it out down below:

Here is a Chilled out remix of Dido's "Thank You" and a Soothing Dubstep of Dido and A.R Rahman's song "If I Rise". You might be required to go on Youtube to watch these videos, watch it. It's worth it :)

Just Hold On:

It has been quite sometime since I last blogged but I recently became really busy. First my university has started giving us a lot of work, so I barely have time to blog, in addition to my work overload, I have also mentioned that my brother recently got engaged. Other than that I also started watching The O.C and also Pretty Little Liars. So far so good, I seem to be quite addicted to these shows.
I will be posting from a monthly basis. So every month expect 1 or 2 updates until the Winter Vacation -January 10, 2012 :)

This post is not considered to be my post of the month....there is another one coming up soon :)

Etisalat's New Logo:

This is the new Logo by Etislut. Yet it's just saying the pure, bitter truth!

Most Disturbing Song Heard:

Today, as I was driving back home from the university, I was listening to Virgin Radio Dubai (104.4) and I was  listening to one of their latest songs or as what Virgin Radio calls it "Fresh Hits 104.4" and at first when I heard it, I was quite surprised to hear a song that had a 70's beat to it (Disco like, think of the Beatles, our parents used to listen to them back in their times).
I was also trying to figure out the name of the song until about a couple of minutes ago. At first I had decided to Google up the lyrics that I heard on the radio and it goes like this "...You Better Run Baby Run...". I spent about a couple of minutes trying to figure out the name of the song and also so that I could understand what the lyrics were, I only heard the last minute of that song and I was curious to find out the name of the song.
So after a couple of minutes I found out the name of the song along with the name of the Artist/Band. The name of the song is "Pumped Up Kicks" and it's by "Foster The People" and this song is all about killing and death. What is wrong with Virgin Radio Dubai playing songs like that? I find that Dubai should at least ban this song on the radio and TV, at least then you know there are a lot of people listening to the radio, especially young children.
Are they trying to get the children to start using guns and probably go shoot someone? Well excuse me, I think they should have the decency to just block this away from all the young viewers and crazy people out there. Who knows this song might even give someone an idea to go nuts and take a gun and go on a shooting spree like that incident in America a long time ago.


WARNING! DISTURBING LYRICS ARE BEING DISPLAYED BELOW HERE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED ABOUT THIS. IT'S 18 & ABOVE. YOUNG VIEWERS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SEE THIS!!!!!

Here are the lyrics of the song:
Robert's got a quick hand.
He'll look around the room, he won't tell you his plan.
He's got a rolled cigarette, hanging out his mouth he's a cowboy kid.
Yeah he found a six shooter gun.
In his dads closet hidden in a box of fun things, and I don't even know what.
But he's coming for you, yeah he's coming for you.

[Chorus x2:]
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

Daddy works a long day.
He be coming home late, yeah he's coming home late.
And he's bringing me a surprise.
'Cause dinner's in the kitchen and it's packed in ice.
I've waited for a long time.
Yeah the slight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger,
I reason with my cigarette,
And say your hair's on fire, you must have lost your wits, yeah.

[Chorus x2:]
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

[Whistling]

[Chorus x3:]
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet.
Well who am I to judge what type of filth the radio stations want to display. I don't really care anymore. Let them get the sins and burn in Hell along with Etislut!

Holidays Are Over:

I know it has been quite sometime since I last updated my blog (almost a month), well I have been quite busy for the past following weeks. As soon as the Eid Holidays ended, I had decided to travel the world again. This time it was just to go to Europe.

Why Europe?

I have my reasons to go to Europe, Also because it's my best friend's 21st Birthday -Happy Birthday Mario-

And also I just wanted to get away for a bit from all the issues that have been going on in my life (many personal issues and family issues). So I just decided to take the next flight out of town for 9 days. More like the best 9 days ever :D :D :D

Now the holidays are literally over. It's time to resume back to the university life and just carry on the burden of  intense work loads (quizzes, midterms, final exams ~Wishes for summer to come back again, extremely soon~).

Back In Town:

I just came back to Dubai from my vacation about a couple of days ago and I have to admit, I had such a great vacation. I had spent my summer travelling across the U.S (not everywhere, just to about 4 states). I had gone to Washington DC, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Miami, Florida. There were so many things to see around these places.
In Washington DC, there were so many historical landmarks to see such as the Washington Monument, The Whitehouse, The U.S Capital, The Lincoln Memorial and much much more. Then I saw the fireworks for the 4th of July. To tell you the truth it was pretty spectacular, the weather was great, the fireworks were so beautiful, the scenery was AWESOME :D :D :D :D :D


Then when I went to Las Vegas, I was pretty disappointed. There were so many buildings, big massive buildings but they were filled with people gambling, smoking and eating. I swear it was like a nightmare, I think those gamblers need to go and get lives because they kept smoking and drinking, it was smelling so bad as if someone had cremated a dead body (literally speaking).

Some good things that they had in Las Vegas were some of the shows (many of them consisted of people just stripping their brains out of each other. I think those strippers need to watch the movie "Penance" to shut them up ). Anyways, what I really liked was the David Copperfield show and the "Marriage Can Be Murder" Dinner and Show. Also I loved the helicopter ride to the Grand Canyon :D :D :D

The Charmed Manor

Is that Piper's room?

Look they even left the same curtains from the show :)

beautiful :)

1329 Prescott Street

Dan's House (from Season 2)

The rundown house next door to the Charmed Ones

The best view of the Charmed Manor

After that I went to Los Angeles and spent a few days there and went looking around. I saw the Kodak Theater, some celebrity homes, also managed to walk along Hollywood Blvd and then walked along Rodeo Drive. I also went and visited the Charmed Manor :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
The Charmed Manor was so beautiful, too bad I wasn't allowed to go inside the house because people were already living in it (No, not the Charmed Ones). I was only allowed to take pictures of the Houses around the neighborhood with the other fans. It was pretty crowded with a bunch of fans from around the world when it came to visiting the Charmed Manor (Hint: Go on Google and look up The Charmed Manor Location LA and it would be given to you).
The rundown house next to the manor is an actual house, I had always thought that it was a prop but it turns out to be a real thing. I met the owner of the rundown house and believe it or not, he has put up the rundown house for sale. Now as for the people living in the Charmed Manor, they were nice enough to leave a bunch of things from the show such as the  curtains, the flowers in the garden (not most of the shrubs or the hanging ivy). I also saw Dan's house as well (see pictures 2 paragraphs up)

Finally I went to Miami, Fort Lauder dale which was exciting because I had gone to see one of Rihanna's concerts. I'll post them after Ramadan due to the fact Rihanna was wearing inappropriate clothing.
I saw Both Rihanna and J.Cole performing. It was really nice. Rihanna was playing a bunch of songs from her new album "Loud" along with some various songs from previous albums including the song "Unfaithful".
