That’s fantastic. The whole thing is great: the way the video is shot, the music, the interview. Look forward to following future episodes.
there is a tiny amount of kuwait bashing going on in this video. no..yes?
Probably.
just a bit, but her saying that we’re a consumerist society is very true, Kuwaitis are pretty consumerist. (kuwaiti ba6n o thahar oo weld alFai7a fa la7ad yg3ad weygool gtfo).
Why was it bashing?
I came to Kuwait for a short visit on Sept after almost 5 years of absence. I’ve noticed three main things:
1- People still drive like maniacs, probably worse.
2- teens and young adults with an upgrade in terms of the clothing that they wear, and manners, but not to the best unfortunately; and what’s up with the muscular physique all of a sudden?
3- More towers and skyscrapers, which is actually a good thing.
oh i had a crush on him < LOL
She looks like the lead singer from Rush. Same hair style.
cool interview…Bianca looked amazing!
This is pretty interesting. Art and especially drawing has always been my favorite activity since I was, I don’t know… 7 – 8 years old maybe?
I do remember some of drawings/coloring and how proud I was when I finished each one of them! I drew almost anything from cartoons, animals, human faces including myself! Nobody taught me, it was what I would truly call a gift. Now my parents would say good work and all that, but that’s about it; and unfortunately, I didn’t keep it up, after PCs became popular a couple of years later, I started giving up my interest in art, and I really do regret doing that till today….
My advice is, when you have a kid, observe them very carefully for any “natural” talent that they may have and continue to encourage them to develop those talents. If I ever notice that my kid starts developing the same interest that I had years ago, I would make sure he/she doesn’t lose the chance that I lost myself, and that was to become next van Gogh, Davinci or Picasso, no dream is too big…
