    I hate My Internet Connection

    It's been a long since i blogged something here in gamespot,anyway,i hate my internet Connection here in palestine,its a growing country and we still have a long way before we're being recognized as a an advanced country like Israel,except we have nearly everything Israel has in the electronics area(and other areas too like cars,schoolling systems,etc),like here in palestine i can buy the most advanced pc ever created because israel is our neighbor and have this technology and so we are too because most of our stuff we get from them,but what makes me mad is they have a very cheap and high internet connection speed(compared to us), like they have their speed up to 8 or 10 mp while we have 1mp and that just frustrating (and they don't have download limits,while for me i have a download limit of 14 GB per month!!thats insane!!),like for instance when i want to download a movie of 4 GB i spend 2-3 days downloading it because the maximum speed i get is 60 kb/s(beacause i have 512=0.5 mp) but they have the minumum speed of any download 480 kb/s(see the diffirence),and if i want to have the 1 mp speed i have to pay double the price i have for 512 which is the same amount they pay for there 4 mbs speed,i don't know how long we'll wait to have that sort of speed and price here in palestine but i know it's not anytime soon,my speed doesn't allow to play most games online because my internet speed is slow and the servers most of the times are in europe or in the US,i just hope this thing get fixed soon or otherwise i'll emigrate to a place where they have a decent internet service(and nearby game servers).

    Summer Training Program

    Hey people,yeah it's been a long time since i posted,nearly a decade,just joking,so am in the university and am taking only one subject in the summer which screwed nearly all my plans for the summer,i haven't even swim once during this summer and that's huge for me,and of course as you know the summer where all the S*** happens,like this last weekend,my PS2 lenses are burnt because i gave it to a friend of mine and he appused the PS2 until he burnt it,and my TV is broken,and tommorow or after tommorow my aunt and her husbund(they live in the US) are coming to stay here with my other aunt and her husbend and kids and of course my grandmother,so you're talking about 16 people people together living for about a week,and don't get me started at my cousin,if they were my age that won't be a problem..but all of them are kids and i HATE THESE KIDS!!! they are like little demons keep respawing in your room even if you told them to get away from you....they go through my stuff....even my personal ones,they use my cell phone,my pc,and even one time they broke my PSP!!! arggh!!! but if say anything about it my father would kick my butt...because they are guests,when am a guest i don't do these stuff.

    Anyway,about the topic,yeah i have three summer camps,one as the topic says is a summer training program about palestine and its culture with field trips and such,but i have a conflict in my schedual,you see,i have my subject from 2 to 3 oclock and the program is from 10-12 pm,and from 1-4 pm.....if i skip i will fail in my subject and if leave this one hour and seen it i will be disqualafied from the summer program,my life is complicated....what should i do people,i'd love to have advice about this whole thing.

    My usual summer break

    Hello people.....yeah its nearly 6 am in the morning.....and the funny thing is i dont feel like going to sleep,i recently finished exams,with high grades in 2 subjects,moderate in 3 ,and i failed in one,the nastiest of all subjects in engineering... Dynamics .

    Now am gonna tell you how i spend my day in summer break(which is 3 months long,unless ofcourse you've subjects to take in the summer semester like me),i usually wake up at 1 or 2 pm,i go to kitchen,drink milk,go to my PC,see my mail,and start playing video-games,at 6 or 7 oclock,my friends call me to hang out till midnight,then play video-games and surf the net to 5 or 6 am.i go to the gym 3 times a week,i like to swim a lot,so there's days that i will actually wake up early .anyway,the summer is where i do second and third playthroughs to the games i have,because i get so BORED of not doing anything so i began to replay games(old and new).my TV used to be my best friend during exams because my dad has a habbit of removing my PC during exams :S,but now not very much.When i get sick of my rotine i drive the car and go to a high area and see the view,smoke a couple of cigarettes,i know am an athelete,but smoking a couple of cegarettes once a week wont hurt my lungs that much,my city is 30 or so kilometers away from the mediterranean sea,but i go to place high enough to see the sea,even if its a small part of it,with all the lights of my local city and the nearby cities and villages,the view is unbelievable,and thats why i smoke my couple of cigarettes,to get me in the mood,so my imagination can fly as i gaze into that view,thinking about it make me wanna go now but now the light is out...

    I think now am gonna stop writing and crash,because i think my dad just woke up and if he sees me up so late(or so early so to speak),am gonna get in much trouble so goodnight for now,or shall i say goodmorning?!? either way works for me
