My Jack Bauer bag is here, the color turned out cooler then I expected.

I just ordered two Jack Bauer bags from Amazon. The Jack Bauer bag is the military messenger bag Jack Bauer uses on the show. I was looking for a nice sized bag in which I could dump all my stuff in and was aiming for a Freitag but every time I try to order one from them I can never decide on which color or design. In the end I decided to go for the Jack Bauer bag since it costs just KD7 and figured it would be fun to have. [Link]

bonus: here is a really cool 24 photo [Picture]

Threadless are having a discount, tons of t-shirts for only $10 each. The offer ends Tomorrow. [Link]

The end result is really horrifying! [Video]

H&M does not stand for Her Majesty. It stands for Hennes & Mauritz. I have heard and read numerous people saying it stands for Her Majesty, I don’t know where they got that from. [Link]

Today I finally have my first biking lesson. It really sucks having a bike and not being able to ride it and now I can’t wait till I finally get my license. Since I am going to the lesson right after work I have my helmet, gloves and jacket in the car. I am also wearing my biking boots which are the Alpinestars Stroke shoes. They are pretty cool and they don’t look half bad either. They also make me feel like a biker even though I still don’t know how to ride a bike which is pretty lame.

The weather is getting really better really quickly. I can’t wait till Ramadan starts since the roads would get deserted at around 5:30pm which would be perfect for a newbie biker since I can fuck up and not have to worry about getting run over.

I ordered a pair of CAMPER shoes from Amazon.com but they shipped me the wrong model. I was going to send it back to them but figured maybe someone here would be interested in purchasing it. Its brand new and never worn. Only 1 shoe was taken out of the box when I first got the package so I could check the model and then it was put back in again. Its black with a bit of beige like in the picture above. The shoe size is 12.

I paid KD43 for the shoe with shipping on Amazon plus another KD9 to have it shipped to Kuwait so in total I paid KD52. Price I am asking for is KD40.

If you don’t know what CAMPER is go here.
They are basically extremely extremely comfortable shoes.

If anyone is interested email me.

I got the Crest White Strips Premium earlier in the month so I could try them out and post my experience. Thing is I never took a before picture so I could compare the color of my teeth before I used the strips. I should have done it because I really can’t see a difference in the color of my teeth although Nat thinks they are whiter now. Maybe they are whiter but not as white as I expected them to be.

Since I don’t have a picture of how my teeth was before I really can’t make a fair review of the product. But if I was to use my memory I would have to say the Crest White Strips didn’t do as much as I expected them to do. Maybe my expectations too high since I was expecting my teeth to be a brilliant movie star white after just 7 days but the result turned out a lot less glamorous.

Putting on the strips was a bit of a pain and once you do get them on you need to leave them on for 30 minutes. I can imagine people with small mouths might have a hard time trying to fit their fingers and the strips into their mouth. Once you put both the upper and lower strip on you suddenly start building up saliva in your mouth. You can’t swallow because the swallowing action might move the strips off your teeth. You can’t spit out the saliva for the same reason. You can’t talk at all and after 30 minutes your lips get really really dry because you can’t moisten them. I spent most of the time lying down on the couch with my head tilted back watching 30 minute sitcoms. Once the 30 minutes are up removing the strips are really easy and you just wash out your mouth with water.

Would I recommend the strips? Yes I would because they are only KD12.5 which is a small fraction of the cost if you wanted to do it professionally at the dentist. You can either pay 100KD or something of the sort and whiten your teeth at the evil dentist or, pay KD12.5 and test your luck out with these Crest strips on the comfort of your couch while watching a rerun of Seinfeld. And hey, if it doesn’t get as white as you were expecting them to get you can always buy another pack and go through the whole process again. Final score is a 4 out of 5, anything beats going to the dentist.

Lacoste has a 40% sale starting from today up till the 29th of September.

I was tidying up my room today when I found my helmet box and decided to try it on with my bike jacket. When I first tried a helmet on when I was still buying the bike I felt really claustrophobic. Now though I think I have gotten used to it a bit but it still feels a bit strange and awkward.

I found these Tron Adidas sneakers at Atheletes Foot in Marina Mall.

The Apple Store, Mac & More located at Marina Mall just got a new supply of Crumpler bags.

I really want this tshirt but my size is sold out! [Link]

I have been looking for a new bag for my MacBook for what seems like forever. I am currently using my original ibook bag which I got back in 2001, its the Vertigo bag by Waterfield Designs. Its a nice practical bag but not funky at all. But after a long search I think I found the coolest bag and its a FREITAG.

FREITAG bags are made from original, used truck tarpaulins, bicycle innertubes, car seat belts and used airbags. Each bag is one of a kind and they have a whole range of sizes, colors and models. I am currently leaning towards the F21 NIGHTCLUB model since my MacBook would fit snuggly inside it. The problem is there are soo many choices to choose from and each bag is very different. I am having a hard time choosing a bag plus the pictures on the site aren’t that good.

Anyway check the site out by clicking on the link. Below this I have a bunch of pictures I found online that show how grungy and cool the bags are. I think the concept is really smart. [Link]
