That's the new type of Staff, "Content Staff". You'll learn more about that tomorrow (August 15th).
Me too. What's the point of giving them back? I might have 7 pairs laying around my house. |

I can't imagine a zoo without lions D:
I once stayed in a hotel that had a lion exhibit (MGM Grand in Las Vegas). |
I haven't gone to the zoo for a long time, but they had a good amount of animals.
Two years ago, the government of Dubai decided to start building what is called Dubai Land. It is in the process of getting built, and when it is done, it is going to be one of the best places in the world! Simply, it is a land full of everything. To what I know, the largest zoo which has all kind of animals is there! Of course it has a lot of other stuff, but I don't really know much about them. I also know there will be Mall of Arabia, the largest mall in the world, and other resorts.
A mini-scale of Dubai Land is open, but not everything.

That sounds impressive, Spirit! Dubai really is trying to outdo the world isn't it x3? I'd really like some pictures of this so called, mini Dubai Land.
Also, the mod reform was hectic and fun! For those who missed it, shame on you (kidding, but you still missed the fun). |
Man Spirit, Dubai land sounds like one heck of a place. Almost makes me want to go there.
I know right? It's pouring here! We've gotten over 1 foot of rain in the last 3 days. We are going to the mall now though.|
I wish it wasn't raining here because I really want to go to the zoo

Technically I just got a color change, I'm still the same old Assistant Mod.

That's really sad spirit, before I went to my school one of the girls in culinary died in a car accident and they keep her chef coat hung up in the resturant.
It's beileved that at my school there's a curse where every year a senior (final year person) dies but I don't think anyone has since I came there.
Last november there were 4 kids in my school who drove a car on drugs and get in a car accident. Two of them died. But honestly I have no pity. If you're stupid enough to get in a car with a teenager on drugs, you probably deserve it.
And before any of you guys retaliate with all that sympathetic stuff, I've had plenty of friends and family die. I know how it feels, but I don't see the point in crying over people who brought it on themselves.

I'm finally back from vacation - now I can return to my old self again. Also, this is hopefully the last huge post you'll see in this thread by me 
|
Actually, we had a gerneal debate last year in school, and Shadow and I presented a very good debate topic that ours got sent to the Parliament, which was searching for good ideas from the young students of school.
|
| We also had a very powerful debate once, 10 students overall, and we were presented as the best debaters for the last 5 years! That time, I was against Shadow. |

To elaborate more on the project, Dubai Land will have six 'worlds': Attractions and Experience World (which will include the first Marvel Superheroes Theme Park), Sports and Outdoor World, Eco-Tourism World, Themed Leisure and Vacation World, Retail and Entertainment World, and Downtown. It will be the biggest collection of theme parks in the world. Not only that, but it will also contain a city called "The Falconcity of Wonders", which is shaped like a falcon and will contain replicas of the seven wonders of the world. Unfortunately, Dubai Land is very far away from completion, especially considering how many of its projects stopped due to the crisis. |

We can now change the topic off of Dubai Land.
I'm still waiting to be promoted to Forum Bot you know. 
Ya I read about Dubailand a couple years ago at first I thought it might have been insane to have one of the biggest parks in the planet in the middle of the dessert.
I don't care how hot it might get there now I want to go very badly if it's larger then Walt Disney World resort.

I have an AC, but my parent's yell at me when I turn it on lol, I don't know why XD
|
In UAE, you basically cannot live without ACs, especially in summer. We have our 2 ACs on almost the whole day, and so our monthly electricity bill has to be high. Not only that, but because of the heat, the water in the bath becomes so freakin hot your skin turns red for a short time. What worsens matters is that the cold tap doesn't work properly in most houses during the summer :S
Oh my gosh Shadow, I feel so bad for you. I've never heard of a house needing 2 A/Cs. I don't really need an A/C much here, except on those really hot days where it reaches around 30C+ (86F+). To me, that's too hot :3. I personally like the temperature to be under 20C (68F) or under.
|
So about 0 or under, but still clear and full of snow? Yea, best day possible, especially for having snowball fights, lots of 'em. >: )
|
One thing I hate about using the AC is that I am sensitive to the air and I sneeze often when the air temperature changes dramatic. So when I turn on the AC on a hot day, my nose gets irritated and eventually start sneezing from time to time. Even when the AC is on during the hot summer nights, I STILL sleep with the blackets or my nose will get irritated in the morning with a cold. If I turn off the AC, my family won't be able to sleep well with the heat.

I was playing Half Life 2 for the past few hours... and I have to say...
Those textures are terrible. There's also the problem with everything looking bleached and dull.
And for those of you who weren't on chat when I told this: I got a blood test today. Good thing I played enough Far Cry 2 to desensitize myself to needles. I used to be terrified, but cured myself with that game.
As of now, there is a limit of 100 posts per page.
