Well this turned out to be a New Year i definitely wont forget. To start things off, i have to admit i was not looking forward to 2010, in a way i was kind of depressed, mainly because i had a weekend shift and all that crap. Luckily my family had booked a chalet at the Hilton Mangaf Resort for the new year and our neighbors were our long time friends whom we have known for more than 20 years, and my parents for 30, so it was planned out to be relaxing.
It turned out to be a great new year weekend at the Hilton and we had a good laugh, and i really enjoyed myself (albeit the arrival of "Kuwait's Worst" group on new years eve). At the end of Saturday, knowing that tomorrow morning was check out time, i was in high spirits and ready for 2010. But 2010 had a big reality shocker for me.
Today i had a football game at one of the Bnied Al Gar football pitches ( as always on Sundays), as i left the pitch after the game i found that my car had a broken window, and i think i had my first feeling of "shit why now" of 2010.
My car had been robbed, my new 3GS i-phone and my wallet with the cash inside, and i cursed and shouted for the first time in 2010.
But i learned a valuable lesson, never take things for granted like saying we're in Kuwait nothings wrong with leaving the car working while you head inside or something that makes you leave the car alone running. And always keep an eye out for your personal belongings.
You always here the stories of theft or such out of the ordinary cases, and you always think that it might happen to someone, but not you. What you do not realize is that you're a "someone" to someone else, so stay safe fellow camels and happy 2010.
