Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

I've arrived in Doha, the capital looked good from the plane (despite my aerophobia) but I knew from the start the first thing I felt was the heat, but this heat is like no other, EVERYTHING BURNS!
The air burns,
the floor burns,
the cars burn,
the persian gulf burns,
the air conditioner burns,
the bottled water burns,
the food burns and now my heart burns. I guess you can say the wind doesn't blow in Qatar, IT BURNS!

Day Two

Nothing much to say here, I woke up and went to open the window and it was hot already. I went down to the coast and spotted an artificial island (not finished) called the pearl, I don't know what's in it but according to the pictures in the marhaba, it's going to be good.

Day Three

I didn't get much sleep because the cats kept on annoying me in the night, howling like air raid sirens and climbing all over the place and to make things even worse, one of them was on heat. In the morning there wasn't much to do that day so I just visited a european club, had a steak and left, but something fun should happen tommorow.

Day Four

It's only been four days and I finally burnt my shoulders from standing in the sun for too long, the strange thing is that only my shoulders were burnt and everywhere else was OK. Remember stay tuned for pictures.

Day Five

I went out to cool down in the sea, came back to the apartment with a sunburnt face. My face is already bad enough without the boiling weather making it worse, but apart from that I had a pretty good lunch, I've never tried macroni cheese before and now that's another I can add to my favorite food list. Hopefully my face will be better tommorow.

Day Six

Sorry about the hold back, I've had my hands full recently. Now that I have the time I'm going to try and speed type what I can remember from the last couple of days.

Day Seven

I didn't do anything all day. But that's a good thing being able to spend an entire day doing nothing, unless there is nothing to do inside the apartment or it's too hot to go outside, good thing I brought my laptop.

Day Eight

I spent a good time jet-skiing around the bay and afterwards I went to the highest bar I've ever seen and had an encounter with a drunk local. but there was only one problem, I FORGOT TO BRING THE F***ING CAMERA!

Day Nine

LOL. If you type anything in the NG search it automatically gets blocked by In-turd-net Qatar. (pic 1)

Day Ten

Pictures are coming! But unfortunately you'll have to wait until tommorow because my olympus takes time to upload them on my PC.

Day Eleven

The first picture is here. In this photo is the pearl, it is an artificial island and by looking at the cranes you can already tell it isn't finished yet but they say it will look just like venice when it is finished. More photos will be up tommorow.

Day Twelve

Well that is one plan backfired, I can't put more pictures into one post. I'll probably post the full set when I get back.

Day Thirteen

Another item has been added to my list of things that burn in Qatar, MY THROAT!!! I should have waited an hour before going into the sea after I had that spicy bowl of chilli, I could not resist such good chilli like that. Oh yeah I forgot to tell you I like chilli, but I tried to wash away the pain with Coke but it didn't work, I'm going to lie in my sheets for the rest of the day and hope that the back of my throat will have cooled over night.

Day Fourteen

I Didn't do much on thursday, apart from going to a shopping mall so big it has a canal runnig through it. Basically the interior looks Venice, Italy and the exterior looks like another normal shopping mall. Also my throat is better after yesterday.

Day Fifthteen

The best day I've had in Qatar so far, I got the chance to drive the jetski and man it was more fun than any computer game I've ever played, I would've taken pictures but I'm not sure if my Olympus is waterproof.

Day Sixteen

[I'll update this spot later as I've been having fun and I can't remember what happened]

Day Seventeen

[I'll update this in a few hours today.

Day Eighteen

Not much to say, only that I've been up all night watchinganimated films from the 1940s and then I fell asleep with the sound of bombshells exploding in my head.
