Ali's Blog

On Saturday, I got my Nokia N900… Simply this phone rocks! I love this phone!

I just installed the plug-in Add to Any on my blog. It allows visitors to be able to share my posts using it rather than copying and pasting the links!

Once upon a time, there was the most beautiful part of my life, when:

When my Dad was the only hero,
When Love was my Mom’s hug,
When my Dad’s shoulder was the highest place on earth,
When my worst enemies were my siblings and cousins,
When the only thing that could hurt was a skinned knee,
When the only things broken were my toys,
And when goodbyes only meant till tomorrow.

Yesterday was one of the best days in my life… Many good things happened yesterday!

I am just back to Bahrain!! Home sweet home!!

Well, I am leaving to Cyprus Turkey for one week!! Leaving tomorrow morning night.. I am so excited!

Hmm, Its has been a really long time since I have last blogged, I just have been really busy with tons of other stuff. I am currently developing a system using Kohana PHP Framework. I really love using Kohana, it makes things easier, its more flexible than CodeIgniter.

A friend of Mine sent me a link to an online quiz “Which programming language are you?” So here is my result:

The quiz is accessible via this link: http://www.bbspot.com/News/2006/08/language_quiz.php

I had two nick names that I always loved to be called with, I didn’t invent them but they just got attached to me and I loved them. I remember the first day I was called Compiler… I was in the Computer Science Lab, Building 15, University of Bahrain — Location Isa Town.
We were doing the computer science 102 (C++ Programming) assignment. I completed mine faster than everyone. So I started helping others… Many of my colleagues didn’t have good knowledge or let’s say interest in programming, so they had lots of structural and logical mistakes… So, one of my colleagues had an error when compiling the C++ Code. So, I took a look at the code and I found the error and fixed it.. And I heard people around me saying: Aah, Compiler!! Since that day, many people know me as Ali Compiler!

The other name Ahmed Alghawas (Friend of mine) called me it and I loved it… I think I will start using it too.. He had an issue with a Linux server, and he have been told that I am a Linux Expert, so he spoke to me and I helped.. He called me Ali the savior.. And we became friends since that day!

I was telling Jassim BuHayal about the new nickname since he only knew Compiler since UOB Days… And he said, its nice.. Use it as:
The Savior, Ali The Savior… Just like, Bond, James Bond!
