It’s almost 5AM in the morning, and I am in the office already. My aunt is visiting and she snores like I have never heard snoring before.. I swear I couldn’t sleep because of her snoring like a pro and so I decided an hour ago to make a move and hit the roads to the office, I thought even if I got a 30minute sleep in the car or in the office would be better than keeping on trying back home. Now I must admit that driving in Dubai at 4:30AM is awesome! Those who suffer from Dubai traffic jam nightmare know what I am talking about, you all should try it out at 4AM
The best part was driving non-stop! Like no fck’d up drivers blocking the left most lane on 60kmph or the like… until I got someone flashing me from behind, that was odd, like I barely would have 5 cars around me at a time, so why this dude is flashing me, specially that I am not on the left most lane..? before I give the way, some lights in blue and red started to blink on the top of that car, cops! And they gave me the signal to pull over .. eek!
It was a regular random check, they asked for my license and registration papers, and then they let me go – it must’ve been my T-shirt that scared them



I just took this shot now, *slim-mer can confirm that I am wearing this tee today.

Now this cops’ situation seems normal, regardless of the fact that it’s my first time to get stopped by cops whilst driving ever, except that I would’ve probably got screwed if it was like 24 hours ago:

=ryye asked me a couple of days ago “anything funny happened to u lately?” and this is what I told her:

<sub>funny. yes, i am just trying to remember.. i smoked mauie wowie last night and i freaked out when i realized that i will be in the airport in one hour time! i started spraying my self with deodorant all the way like it will actually help, after 3minutes, i noticed that i even sprayed my mouth!! I looked miserable, i took eye drops to hide any potentially red eyes and once i got on the plane past 3AM i crashed on the seat, then i remembered how annoying them airhostesses when they wake u up to ask you if you want to eat, so i pulled the sticker that says "Do not Wake me Up" which is the best thing Emirates airlines have, and sticked it on the armrest side of the chair, i wanted to stick it on the back of seat infront of me, but i was afraid the hostess might approach from front so she would not notice it, so i put it on the side, and made sure i dont put my arm on it hiding it.. and zzzZZZZ... only to wake up on someone touching my shoulder asking me "sir, would you like to have a light meal?"!!!! unbelievable!! I was in the state where you are sooooo sleepy, and sooo tired, and you feel your eyes are sooo heavy to open and your tongue is even heavier to talk.. i cldn't figure out why she woke me up.. i looked at her with half open eyes, and then pointed at the sticker.. "ohhh!! i am so sorry sir" she reacted. Whatever.. next time i will put the sticker on my forehead.. i will do it.

we landed, i can tell you that i didnt feel the take off or the landing of the plane in that flight, i was wasted.. then the best part came.. passing through dubai airport customs.. like when i am clean, i get stopped, how about me in this situation, kinda tripping.

i was awake, and as i got into the last check point before leaving the airport, i was expecting the worst... only to find that the officer in duty is a familiar face.. HE WAS MY CLASSMATE FROM PRIMARY SCHOOL DAYS hahahahaahahaa... how awesome! i almost wanted to kiss him, my guardian angel, but i was afraid he would notice any smell of MJ.. but it was really great to see him, had a bit of chit chat and he let me to my way.. i could bet that my chances where very high to get stopped if someone else was there</sub>



I spent most of the following hours asleep, and then I woke up to find a reminder of a friend’s birthday party.. maaan, I don’t want to turn it down, yet I am not so sure I am clean enough to drive.. I went back to bed and woke up at 23:00hrs, took a shower, dressed up, grabbed my camera and made my move at midnight.. it was at 400 club, Fairmont. I felt kinda sleepy by the time I got there, but I woke up when the bouncer did not want to let me in.. specially with the camera.. I got in eventually when O.B [link] / [link] , the birthday boy, came out.. Abbas, the bouncer, is a jackass.
I ended up with a stupid Canon G7 to snap lame party shots, and then went home to continue sleeping.. on the way back home I thought so much of running into cops at that late hour (or early morning hour), but it just happened the next day.. hehe, I don’t want to picture myself being randomly stopped.. yesterday..

Don’t get me wrong.. I am not a junkie or whatsoever, but YouOnlyLiveOnce

Heh, I hope I will be travelling today because the last thing I want is another fucking night with my aunt’s music.

And on a side note, last evening I got an sms with wonderful news.. which I hope is going to change someone’s life for good – the best news I have heard in a long time.. I hope you’re reading these lines so that you know I am really happy for you.

And this is my new phone’s ring tone [link] (*slim-mer will hate me once he know that )

_{p.s. typed early, posted late.. a blackout in between}

I have been on planes for nearly 40 times since Feb 25th 2007, and today for the first time I was not allowed to get on the plane! Reason: improper documents!
It took me less than 10 minutes to be slacking in the lounge as I don’t have baggage to check-in and I used the self-check in kiosk which take no time at all.. and then at the boarding gate I was stopped
They said my residency visa expires in less than a month, and I need at least three months valid residency so that I travel to Oman where I was supposed to be flying to… bloody buggers, I am going there for no more than two days and they come up with sucks lousy rules.

eh, shit happens.

Update:
maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! =nawras bought be a subscription yesterday! Woah! I owe you one dude.. no, you won't get to see my underwear tho
Thanks dude.. truly.



hello kids.. so this is how it works:

1- Extract the confidential PIN ALU from the Card Personalization Request flowing from CMS to CPS.

2- Break it down into segments and break your nerves down whilst doing so.

3- Locate KTU' and The Encrypted Data segment.

4- Decrypt KTU' using 3DES-CBC algorithm and plain KEK (you all should know that I am talking about test KEK, hence you should all know its value: FEFEFEFEFEFE0101FEFEFEFEFEFE0202)

5- After you do so, you get the plain KTU and you then break it down, along with your nerves, to locate the Data Key (16 byte hex key)

6- Now comes the fun part, you need to use the above mentioned key and 3DEC-MULTOS algorithm to decipher the encrypted Data Segment. And the result should give you and indication of the Data Preparation scripts are gay on not, meaning if they’re doing their job correctly on not.

Want more? I don’t think so…

So.. it’s been a while since I wrote a “devious” journal – but I thought it might be “fun” to share some of what’s keeping me busy lately.. fun!
Why did I choose to study something like this? When I first joined uni, I didn’t know what I want to study, I didn’t have a real career objective (and still don't).. just because some jackass whom I knew through family friends was studying computer crap, I followed him blindly. And then he changed his major a year later because he couldn’t keep it up.. women cloud the mind, and it wasn't easy on him to be a geek and follow chicks at the same time. So I changed my major too.. but to another more complicated computer related field where I had to take more stupid math courses. I don’t like math, and the only thing I like about math is Beautiful Mind the movie.

On another note, I want to renew my dA subscription but dA doesn’t accept my Credit Card transaction – why? Because it’s being used outside the country from where it was issued! Woah!
And until I renew my subs I won’t do much on dA except posting more of the photos from my trips which I haven’t posted yet. I believe I arrived to Mallorca on dA, in real life I got on the plane exactly 11 times after that (it took me like a minute to count them flights, and I moved my head left and right with each roundtrip). So, I no longer understand the process because I am unable to keep track.

I am now in some hotel room, I don’t have much light turned on and there is a quite interesting movie playing on ShowMovies 1 which I would put it on my list if I manage to know its title.. good soundtrack, and some homo boy who breaks up with his so-called gf who has a crush on his dad and eventually she bangs the dad - The American Beauty, but with no roses flowing out of her apples..

I like this song [link] – yesterday I kept it on for few hours in loop… Thank you out there who indirectly pointed me to this song

After I post few more photos of lands and still, I will stop. I don’t feel much bond with the photos I am taking, they are not alive. I want to shoot more people, humans... beautiful people. People who like to make beautiful photos.

Damn this movie is getting better…

Well..

yet another mindless entry.. I am sleepy now, time to get some work done.
