Back when I was in high school I used to write in the entertainment section of my school’s paper, The Voice of AIS. A reader randomly found an old copy of an issue dating back to December 1995 at her parent’s house and sent me pictures of it.
It’s obviously very bizarre reading my own articles 25 years later but what’s weirder is my writing seems to have gotten worse? I’m looking at the paper credits and it says @nazmraz was the editor of the entertainment section which could explain why I sounded like a better writer back then. I should just have her edit my blog from now on.
If you want to flip through the paper I’ve uploaded all the photos and you can check it out here.
Thanks Anfal!

Hollywood : sabotaging your favorite video games in the cinema since 1995.
Isn’t the Street Fighter II movie one of the rare good video game movies?
This was actually the manga which was great. Ken had a sexy red Porsche Turbo convertible in it but that’s all I remember from the film though.

Can’t believe they had Alice in Chains in the soundtrack, need to rewatch the film!
How could you NOT remember that epic fight scene with Chun Li and Vega in her apartment?
It’s one of the best fight scenes in cinematic history.
The Alice In Chains song (Them Bones) is actually the song playing when Ken is driving around in his convertible with Eliza.
I still remember this scene bc of the AIC song. It also reminds me of the american version intro to the Road Avenger Sega CD game.That kinda uncredited song in the game sounds kick ass too even if you can barely what hes saying due to his ultra grizzly voice lol

Under Siege 2 movie of the month? WTF?
lol I was a sucker for Steven Seagal movies plus it might have been the only movie playing that month at Cinema Salmiya. I’m more upset at the fact I gave Waterworld 3 out of 5 stars. I would easily give it a 4 and maybe even a 4.5 today. It’s one of my favorite after the world has ended style movies.
A very underrated movie indeed.
So who are Rady and Rita?
They’re both still in Kuwait.
Hi Mark, I was at Murouj today and found that phase 4 coming soon with what seems to be pick opening there. Any idea what else will be developed there?
Nope
Would be happy to do do!
lol, complete with typo. never mind.
Sorry for all the comments, but could you please upload/send me the AIS catwalk article?
Very nice. You’ve been a writer forever! I don’t think ppl get worse with time but only evolve. Nice that you had someone who tracked this and got it to you.
