Uni is the best place to fail at public speaking safely until you get better. It's low stakes & professors have seen it all 100s of times. Seen many freeze and quit but they always come back better. You don't get the same chane anywhere else. Use it.
احنا مجموعة طلاب #نطالب بألغاء البرزنتيشن
بطني تعورني واطرافي بارده وصوتي يتغير وكل شوي اشرق بكلامي و هذي العلبه الثانيه من العصفر تكفون خلاص والله ما اتحمل
A Shawarma House branch, a capitalist success story, is causing great offence to rich upper-class neighbourhood dwellers. The irony is very delicious.
I would've given this book 5 stars based on the cover art alone (the dame, the car, the manor, the wind; It's all there) But turns out the story too is an absolute banger. A contender for my favourite read this year.

Venus on the Waves (detail) by François Boucher - 1769 - J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles
Saw #Digger and it's just a mix of Dr. Strangelove and Birdman. What's not to like? I enjoyed it.
Professor Saad al-Sowayan would slap you in face for spewing ignorant shit like that
اتفق مع مقولة الباحث بالتاريخ الاستاذ رضا الشملاني العنزي أن السعوديون جميعهم بدو ولا يوجد بيننا حضر الفارق فقط إن هناك من استوطن بالقرى والمدن قبل خمسين سنه وهم اخر البدو الرحل عندما اسست الدوله حباها الله الهجر والقرى لتوطين الباديه وهناك من سبقوهم بالنزول بالقرى والمدن بعشرات السنين فموروثهم وعاداتهم واحده وإن كان هناك خلاف فهو بسيط حسب طبيعة المنطقه التي يقطنون بها #السعودية #الرياض #الدرعيه #مكه #القصيم #جازان #الشرقيه #عسير #الجوف #تبوك #المدينه_المنورة #عرعر #حائل #الباحه
One could debate, but I liked this tweet without hesitation. I watched Mad Men when I was very young and it's the only show that I can rewatch without feeling I outgrew aspects of it.
MAD MEN is the #1 show of the century, probably all-time. Unparalleled depth, performances, themes, emotions; the best drama that is also somehow the best comedy. I know this; you know this; your mom knows this. We don't have to be babies who pretend otherwise.
A hallmark adolescent experience used to be the constant effort to appear "not like anybody else" and to join a niech community or circle. But now it flipped. They want to appear like everybody else lest they be social media cringe.
تعامل الطلاب مع الأمن بالجامعة مؤسف. يومياً أشوفهم يتجادلون معهم ويرفعون الصوت عند مواقف الكليات والرجل واقف بالشموس وبعضهم بأعمار أباء الطلاب. ماهي مشكلته أنك متأخر على محاضرتك ولا هو اللي صمم المواقف وخصصها تقوم تنافخ عليه غصب تدخل يا محور الكون.
I LOVE the absolute gems that are those very old Goodreads reviews. The Internet was pure back then.
Being sociable is great. I hailed a taxi and he was sure the trip will cost me 80ish or more. By the time we were at my front door, the meter did indeed say 80 yet he refused to take anything more than 30, despite my best efforts to pay him more. We're friends now.
