Busy Busy Busy Summer!

Hey all,
Its been a month since I`ve posted anything and feel really terrible about it!
But anyway, I have really good news for all of you (El7mdellah) everything is going great for me!

First of all, I appreciate all your comments on my last post and would like to remind you all that its just an opinion and as Michael Slackman of the New York Times replied on the email I sent him of my blog "I'm glad the piece has prompted some discussion and public dialogue." :)

Second of all, I was chosen for this offscreen which is going to be A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
and I have told to write a blog so, I`m basically going to link it Here
Hope you guys check it out and leave positive feedback and also advise if you want,
I am also open to any type of criticism just be easy on me :P ( not that I can't take you down) LOL!

Anyhoww; MOVING ONNN...

Third of all, I'M SICK AND I'M HATING THIS =(
I`m gonna update this post soon because I really really really have many comments on the FIFA world cup 2010 after what I've seen on Aljazeera English last night.
So stay tuned for that!

Regards,
S.A. Al-Derham

Update: Tuesday, 15 June , 10.15 AM


Good morning all from Qatar with a cup of hot milk with honey, how's everyone doing?
Now I did say that I would speak about the FIFA World Cup 2010! and I`m on especially for that and with a surprise at the end of my blog which will blow your minds away.

So basically even though I don't anything about soccer the reason why I wanna speak about about the FIFA world cup was about something I saw on Aljazeera, they brought South Africans who were with and against it IN S.AFRICA.
The guy speaking against was an author and what he said was he did not support it for many reasons and got me totally convinced, his argument were that South Africa is a protest country which have protests about electricity, water even toilet!
So why build fancy stadiums which won't be filled again after the 30 days?
another argument of his was the profit in the end won't go to south africans but to FIFA and even though it did, it won't cover up what they lost!

Really sad! but what can we do whats done is done. Anyhow on the other hand we have the guy speaking for it who said that its a great chance for South Africa to be known globally and bring more tourists to the country.
Even though he has a pretty good point there, the author speaking against had stronger arguments, I don't mean to be a party-popper but I just had to share this!

In my opinion even if I don't watch the world cup, I think its a really fun event which is one of the few that brings the world together and connects them in many positive ways :)
so, THIS TIME FOR AFRICA :P
Now MY SURPRISE!


Today, I bring you one of the most talented boys in Qatar.

so yeah, im writting again after reading the update ,
i have to say that im really shocked 'cause i didnt know about the SouthAfricans struggle over there and you made good points !
im not a HUGE FAN of soccer and the world cup but i have to say that this year it got SO OVER RATED, people who have NOTHING to do with soccer are watching the matchs , just so they could say that they watched and blah blah blah .
very .. sad ...

about mohammad, he is such a talented young boy ! i have never seen so such creativity in a person before !! wallah im so proud of him :)
about the film, hahaha i wont lie and say everything was easy , infact it was the hardest thing we ever done ! shooting a 1 minute film took us 8 hours it was very tiring but we had the support of our friends, i have to say it was a good feeling .. we actually made a film !
oh and yeah, hopfully next month i'll be working on my own short film ! thanks alot for helping me that day .

oh yeah, are you changing the layyout ??? please, dont ! its really cool !

so yeah, thats it and keep writting !

YEAH! I know,
Actually the points were more from the aljazeera spokesmen. Anyway, I know, People don't even know the rules of soccer but keep broadcasting and writing on their names like they know everything kinda pisses me off, but i hate to kill the fun :P

And If your gonna say your proud of m7md, I`m gonna say im proud of BOTH of you,
all of this wouldnt have happened without your support and it shows :P
I love the part where you pushed him away ha! so funny =*

I might, I`m not sure, If i find a better one I will

Thanks sal, you're one of my favorite supporters :P lets hope no one read that :P ily

Savannah <3
