blogging from dhahran ... yeah i came down for the weekend ... it's been like a month since the last time i was here ... i wanted to come by car but dad started freaking out when i told him on the phone ... so i succumbed ... and took the bus ...
bus trips are now six hours long by the way ... they used to be five ... plus the air conditioner wasn't working so well for some reason ... and then at the end of the trip ... like literally at the end ... just a few minutes before we got to the bus station ... one of the passengers got into a fight with the driver ... it was a verbal exchange ... no punches were thrown ... but still ... a pretty heated exchange ... mind you this is not the first time i witness a bus fight ... but anyway ... so that was like the cherry on the sundae ... or the icing on the cake ... or the ... you get the idea ...
all in all it was a wonderful trip ...
not ...
i'm buying guitar hero once i get back to riyadh ...

Glad that you listened to your Dad..
I took a trip once from Beirut to Damscus in a bus and oh boy it was hell, the A/C wasn't working, it felt like we were barbecued inside..Mama forced me to take the bus,she thought that it would be safer for me to be with a lot of passengers rather than alone in a taxi :)
I saw people at a store "Game spot" at the mall trying out guitar hero, it looks like fun :)
hehe so you too have felt the wrath of the bus ride :D
