Yasmin 2007 Shaklak Ha Tohshni

Many albums released recently but I didn't had a chance to review all of them, one of the albums is Yasmin's.

My favorite song of the album is "Bi Amanah" (To be honest) بأمانة NO wonder it's written by Hani Abdulkareem and composed by Walid Sa'ad :)

Songs I like of the album:

1- Bi Amanah (To be honest) بأمانة
2- Hott Nafsak Fi Makani (Be in my shoe) حط نفسك في مكاني
3- Hashofak Etha (I will see you if) ح اشوفك إذا
4- Ma De'eftish Osado (I didn't reveal my weakness to him) ما ضعفتش قصاده
5- Mish Momkin Tekon Insan (You are not human) مش ممكن تكون إنسان

Yeeeei finally I bought a printer :D
I was going to buy all in one EPSON printer but when I saw this one I fall in love at first sight :D
Now I can cross EPSON printer from my wish list

OK, I been a loyal fan of EPSON since 1992, when my father bought a black and white laser jet, followed by ink jet few years later and 3rd printer in 1998, this is the 4th one the only difference that I had to pay for it this time :(
Yeah I am sad but it totally worth every single Dinar and Fils I paid for it :D

I never seen any of my photos printed on a paper until today when I printed some photos of my sister from a previous photo session, I wasn't amazed at all, simply because I expected the result from EPSON again :)

I had "test drives" with other brands but they are nothing compared to EPSON specifically when you print a photo.

أخيراً شريت طابعة هيااااااااااااااااه :D
كنت ناوي أشتري طابعة ابسون الكل في واحد بس لما طاحت عيني على عين هالطابعة صار بينا حب من أول نظرة :>
الحين أقدر أمسح طابعة إبسون من قائمة أمنياتي :Pp~

شعار إبسون هو
EXCEED YOUR VISION
يعني تفوق على حاسة بصرك

أنا كنت و ما زلت معجب مخلص لطابعات إبسون من سنة 1992، من لما الوالد شرى أول طابعة و كانت ليزر جت أبيض و أسود بس، بعدها بجم سنة طابعة نافثة للحبر و وراها بسنة 1998 برنتر ثالث و هذا بالصورة رابع طابعة و الفرق بين الرابعة و اللي سبقوها إن هالمرة أنا اللي دفعت فلوسها مو الوالد :(
صج حرقت فلوس بس تسوى كل فلس دقعته :D

أنا لغاية ما شريت هالطابعة ما عمري شفت صورة من اللي صورتهم مطبوعة على ورق, و كانت أول صور طبعتها هي صورة لجلسة تصوير سويتها حق اختي ...و أنا ما ذهلتني النتيجة لسبب بسيط و هو إني توقعتها من إبسون هالمرة بعد :)

أنا جربت طابعات غير إبسون من قبل بس النتيجة ما في مجال للمقارنة بينها و بين نتائج طباعة إبسون خصوصاً عند طباعة الصور.
لمعلومات عن بنتي اليديدة شوفوا هاللنك.

Al-Qurain Martyrs Museum [Read]

Al-Qurain Martyrs Museum [Read]
Originally uploaded by radiant guy

I had to take some photos of "Al-Qurain Martyrs Museum" (keep reading to know what it is)...
I didn't know where they are exactly although I passed by them few times, so I asked who lived in the exact area where the Museum is...

The Museum consists of three houses located in residential area in Kuwait called "Al-Qurain", many Kuwaiti men of the Kuwaiti resistance group of "Messila" where killed by the Iraqi army on 25th of February 1991 (only one day before the liberation of Kuwait on 26th of February 1991), one of the houses was attacked intensively while the other two houses weren't really effected compared to the first house.

Back to my friend who I asked for direction to the Museum, only this week I found out that the father of my friend was killed in that house too, I already knew that he was killed by the Iraqi army but I didn't know that he was one of the men in "the Qurain Houses" I only found out this week...When I was talking to the phone with him, he told me to say Hi for his father then we both laughed...

I was thinking, well it will be very fast just snap some photos of the houses from the outside then go back home, but one of the guards saw me and asked me if I wanted to take photos from the inside I should do it now because they were closing the museum in less than ten minutes and I said OK.

Until today, I never seen "Al-Qurain Martyrs Museum" in real life, so when I got in I saw all the Iron bars surrounding the walls to prevent the house from collapsing, I kept taking photos and then I reached a room where I found photos of the martyrs with all spot lights and some information written about them such as where they actually work, how many children they had, photos of the children, what they were wearing at the time...Etc

While I was walking from room to other, floor to roof I was looking at the walls and reading all the writings on the wall (some of them were written by them), I has flash backs of the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and I begun to imagine what those guys been through that day and how each one felt linking that to the holes caused by the bullets and tanks on the walls with all the writing and stuff it made me cry.

So I decided to share that story with the whole world because I do want people to know what happened there once upon the time...

Photo and description dedicated to the souls of the courageous resistance men in heaven.

Friendship braceleT

I've made many friends online, some of them been my friends for 7 years - and counting - we never met though but that doesn't mean that we are not close friends.

Photo above shows me wearing a friendship bracelet, it was made specifically for me, I picked up the colors my self using the dropper tool of Corel Paint Shop Pro (it blends perfectly with my blanket and my praying carpet).

The girl who made that for me have a hobby of making bracelets and she is good in it...Thanks "S", I love it :)

Flugtag

Today, I went to Redbull flugtag to experience sport photography for the first time, I thought it was easy but it wasn't, specially since my maximum zoom is 200 mm. And the was frustrating, but since I am not a quitter, I decided to get back home with some photos anyway, so I've taken some random shots of the audience...Most of them were flickr members, I recognized some of them through their photos such as Nawwaf, Abdulrahman, Najwa, Khaleel and Ammar :D

Autumn leafs

I know, it's been months since the last time I wrote a thing about my latest favorite songs which I keep listening to them all the time.
Many albums released for well known singers and for some new ones, I loved many of them but I've been really crowded lately working on my personal site but now I am kinda free so I can do it again.

It's hard to talk about this song, I love the lyrics more than the arrangement it self but the over all song is superb, at least for me.
Hasna (the singer) usually perform fast tempo songs with fun lyrics but she kinda changed her style in her last album which was released recently.
Until now I loved 3 songs of 7 and that's a good thing :)
I have no idea what people will think about this song but I love it anyway :Pp~


Song name: Waraq Al Khareef (Autumn leafs) ورق الخريف
Album: Qalbi Eb Khatar قلبي بخطر 2007
Song genre: Lebanese, Oriental, Sharqi, Pop Music
Singer: Hasna - حسنا
Lyrics by: N/A
Composed by: N/A

Translated by: RADIANT GUY (ME)


There is a thing which is decreasing constantly...A thing which never reached perfection...
There is a thing which is going to end...A hopeless case...
The autumn leafs are falling...
Tell me, how come this love was murdered?

You are still remaining silent, you rarely talk...
Where did your longing to me gone?
My dream was burned just like a piece of paper, and the night light was extinguished!

You've stolen the sleepiness of my eyes...Don't you realize it?
Where is the lover I used to know?
Where did all the faithfulness gone?
Where did all the love you used to have for me go?

في شئ عم ينقص بعده ما إكتمل
في شئ راح يخلص ما منه أمل
بلش ورق الخريف...ينزل على الرصيف
قولي ليش و كيف هالحب إنقتل؟

ساكتك بعدك ساكت...ما بتحكي قليل
وين اللهفة غابت و الحلم الطويل؟
!مثل الورق حلمي إحترق و انطفئ القنديل

نوم عيوني سارق...ما بتشعر أكيد
وينه هاك العاشق
وين إختفى كل الوفا و الحب الوحيد؟

Finally RADIANTGUY.COM launched!

It's true :D
It took me 8 months after the day I registered my domain name RADIANGUY.COM and 3 months of web and graphics design to get it out.

OK...I published it on 27th of October 2007 and it was available for few seconds until I found out about some bugs and I had to fix them all.

- The first bug was the server didn't support Arabic script and it doesn't show the copyright symbol in the English section so I had to add a script forcing the browser to show them correctly (I didn't test it with Internet explorer yet).

- Some photos didn't appear in the portfolio section and I totally freaked out because I had no idea what was wrong exactly!, I knew nothing was wrong with the files names but still didn't get it!...Eventually I realised that the extensions were written in upper case so I had to change 90% of them and re upload them.

- Then I had a problem with the favicon but that was fixed too :D

- Last thing was a problem with the domain name it self, so I had to contact the support team to tell me what to do...I'll make sure to let them regret the day I became their customer LOL

I know no body noticed it at the time, but now the website is finally OUT for public.

NOW YOU CAN SEE THE UNLIT PART ;)

I would like to know how do you all think about it, do you like it or not (consider that I am not a web designer)?

I don't like some parts of it such as contact and links section, I guess I wasn't in the mood that day so I might redesign them later.

Currently I am doing the final touches before uploading the index page and allow people to get into my world, I will make a video file of the launching for my personal archive.

I did create a website years in 1999 and it was hosted on free hosting servers, but I never published a site on a paid server...I thought it's hard to do it...But it wasn't at all, If I can do it everybody can.

PAINT SHOP PRO X2 is OUT!

I can't wait until I get back home to install it on my PC, the new grey user inteface looks amazing :D

COMING SOON!

Soon!
Radiant will shine and everybody will see the unlit part...
Come back soon!
قريباً!
سيلمع شعاع النور و سترون الجزء المظلم...
عودوا للزيارة قريباً!


One more thing, I just had a hair cut...I wanted to get a hair cut for the Eid but it was crowded so I didn't do it until today.
I always wanted to do a photo with water droops and I guess I succeeded :D

ليش الحلاليق كله زحمه بالعيد؟
جنه بس بالعيد الناس لازم يقصون شعرهم غير جذي مو لازم...
المهم انا من زمان كان ودي بصور اللي يكون فيهم نقط ماي, هالشي ما بقدر اسوي بكاميرا عاديه, بس بعد ما شريت نيكون سويتها و نص :D

Funny story

She left and took my heart with her....Keep reading....
Few hours ago, our house keeper packed her bag to go back home...So my mother was with her all the time when she found out that she stolen some stuff from us including my favorite Guess pants which I was missing for so long LOL
It's true I didn't take it back because I kinda felt sorry for her, plus If i took back I won't be able to post anything about that story on my blog...Well I could do it anyway but at least now she deserve it :Pp~
I doubt that she will fit in my pants even in her wildest dreams because I am waay thinner than her, she probably saw me wearing it and thought that she would lose some weight for it :+

P.S. Dear Mr. Bush, the thing on the right suppose to be an air plane not a nuclear weapon so please I beg you don't invade me too :+
