Exams are boring

Exam Exam Exam , sometimes i regret i went back to study
Somtimes i know i made the right thing

and since everyone is doing it , i’ll just join in

هالايام تارس وقتى دراسه و تحضير للإمتحانات
حاشنى برد ما ادرى من الدراسه او الدفايات
عسى الله يوفقنى و نشوف خوش علامات
يالله ما بقى شى و ننتهى و تخلص الدوامات
شهرين عطله بهالبرد مالى خلق ازهب الجوازات
و الربع اذيه اقول حق واحد نسافر يقول خلص رصيد الاجازات
و الثانى اقوله يالله البر يقول خاطب و لازم ارضع بالتلفونات
و الثالث اقول له شاليه يقول متزوج اتأخر احصل استجوابات
شكلى بأفعد بالبيت و اشغل الثعلب النارى و اقرأ المدونات

So i said what the hell and tried it
i uploaded the picture of Talal Al Fahad ( Qadsiya club president ) just look at what i got

The public housing comission has a website

I saw the Link while shopping at my Local Co-OP , they had these big ad for the Dream Flat , explaining how its going to look like and what good stuff about it

public housing comission

First of all , the site is Fast , i’m assuming its hosted on Qualitynet ( too lazy to check ) anyway , the site is simple and all the site language is in Arabic

In general the site is fine , the only problem is the pictures , what kind of ugly pictures are they using !!
Most of the pictures are scaned , and with bad colors
check for example this picture
bad picture

or this

bad scanner ?

And to realy see some bad scanning and photo editing in action check this page
click on any building pictures , see the the line between the ground and first floor ?

If you were wondering , this is the Dream Flat

for you non Arabic Readers here is a translation
1- dinning room
2- Dewaniya
3- living room
4- Main bedroom
5- Bedroom
6- Bedroom
7- Bedroom
8- Bedroom
