Twitter is more useful being used on the move, that way the updates you post are more relevant. For all you Blackberry freaks roaming around Kuwait, to download TwitterBerry go to http://orangatame.com/ota/twitterberry/ directly from your Bolds, Curves, Storms and whatnot.

My summer has officially begun and now I can relax.
Down to the post…I started watching this show called Breaking Bad where this high school chemistry teacher’s, Walt (Bryan Cranston, the dad from Malcolm in the Middle) life is in ruins financially and and physically. He finds out that he has cancer and all his friends have made it through life successfully but he’s stuck in debt in a low paying job.

He then discovers the wonderful (not so much) world of meth making; he finds out theres more money to be made through it and he has the knowledge and expertise to make the highest grade crystal meth (if you’re a tweeker you’ll most likely love this stuff).

And the story goes on from there. Watch it. I have season 1 on DVD but I think its with my cousin in Kuwait and a friend of mine got dibs on it.

210 candidates. 50 have been choose. 4 are women. Women will occupy 8% of the parliament when they were only 7% of the total number of candidates (16 women candidates).

The sun’s rays have finally broke the horizon to evaporate the heavy dew of uncertainty that rested on the heart of Kuwait for several years. With a new parliament that has many changes, people can finally hope for a different path away from the destructive and unproductive agenda the parliament was previously in. Even though it took long for this moment to happen, Kuwait finally lifted its head up towards the future of democracy. Dr. Aseel Al-Awadhi, Dr. Rola Dashti, Dr. Maasoma Al-Mubarak and Dr. Salwa Al-Jassar are the names that are now carved in our history and our future. Not only did these candidates work years to achieve their advanced academic degrees (PhDs), but they also broke the heavy wall built by the individuals and parties that stand against women’s rights. Women deserve a voice in the government and the four women chosen are worthy of having the honor of such representation. 

The Puddle would like to congratulate all the candidates that won seats in the parliament and hopes this one lasts longer than the previous ones. Here’s a list from Wikipedia.org displaying the most democratic countries in the Middle East in order. Kuwait was ranked number one.

(CNN) – Kuwait elected its first female lawmakers in the conservative Gulf state where men have dominated parliament for nearly five decades. Rola Dashti is one of four women who won parliamentary seats in the recent elections in Kuwait. Four women won parliamentary seats in the general elections Saturday, the official Kuwait News Agency said. Women were first granted the right to vote and run four years ago, but they failed to make inroads in the country’s parliament in the past two elections. Preliminary results released Sunday show that university instructor Aseel al-Awadhi and economist Rola Dashti were among four women who won seats. The U.S.-educated Al-Awadhi has a doctorate and has been a member of Amnesty International, Kuwait News Agency said. Dashti has worked as a consultant for several companies and chairs the Kuwait Economists Society, according to the news agency. Two hundred and ten candidates ran for 50 seats in the general election, and 16 of the candidates were women. The elections were called after the emir, Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah, dissolved parliament, which is made up mostly of opposition politicians. The parliament had been locked in a feud with the government, which it accuses of corruption and abuse of power. It has been pressuring the government for the right to question ministers on deals. The parliament is made up of elected lawmakers, but ministers are appointed. The emir said he was dissolving parliament to put an end to a crisis that had paralyzed decision-making. The al-Sabah family has run Kuwait since it came into existence more than two centuries ago.

Summer time is almost here and people will be hitting the water soon, now comes that time of the year for beachwear and wetsuit shopping. I was in the market for a decent wetsuit last summer during my surf phase, I looked at Rip Curl, O’Neill and Body Glove but didn’t find anything I liked. All the wetsuits looked the same and were well, boring. I came across a unique line of wetsuits designed by Diddo, I love the themes incorporated onto the wetsuits they definitely made my summer wish list.

Directed and produced by Roland Emmerich, 2012 will be released in Kuwait on November 12, his other films include, Independence Day, Godzilla, The Day After Tomorrow, and 10,000 BC. The film is inspired by theories revolving around the predicted doomsday event that is said to occur in the winter solstice of 2012. We mentioned this hypothesis in our previous post.
