Dear reader, I hope you are here because you are into entrepreneurship / business readings. I am not promising that this series will change your life, but I humbly hope that it can shed some lights on major mistakes I have personally done during the most exciting journey in my life and it could help one or two entrepreneurs out there avoid these mistakes and reach success faster. My plan is to share a brief of 40 mistakes in 40…
When you feel so stupid that it makes you pause and stand still for few minutes. When you realize how much of a fool you were in certain situations that you wish you never existed When you face people who act or pretend to be nice just to win your trust, yet they plan to crush it with their actions. It’s about caring, it’s about making sure you put yourself in someone else’s shoes, it’s about paying attention to the…
I write today, With memories of yesterday good mixed with bad, awesome mixed with sad But I lived through, praising the red and the blue Took the good in, and let the bad away, I write today. With my eyes on the green, that has some grey but it’s okay, for to enjoy the green, grey should be seen, For life to be built, a discomfort must be felt For a medicine to be forced, a pain must be…
Dear Mr. Blamer Haven’t you had enough already? I mean come on, why do you keep on blaming everything that’s around you? (yes even the small little ant) Here’s my problem with a person who blames a lot: You are annoying :@ We all do stupid things, and people should point out problems for each other because that’s the way we learn, but having too much blame in the air is not healthy for anyone. Has any of this happened…

So I graduated but KAUST is still not there…. What to do? Well KAUST offered us several exciting options like studying abroad for a year, working for some time as interns, or taking courses. I chose to get some real world technical experience by working as an intern. The big question to me was WHERE? Based on some reasons, the most appropriate option was Saudi Aramco. I got a 6-month internship. At first, I thought it will be a boring…
People might be asking: what is KAUST? Why are you writing about your “journey”? Isn’t it just another student having master’s degree from a university? Well first, KAUST is King Abduallah University of Science and Technology. If you want to know all the details about this school, just check the website www.kaust.edu.sa Now, my journey might seem like a normal one for an outsider. Nevertheless, it’s anything but normal to me. When I was an undergraduate student at King Fahd…
Have you been to the States? I know I have First, before talking about the different states I visited, I will mention here some signs telling you that you are in the States. If Soft drinks are refillable (bottomless as said in UK) EVERYWHERE .. you know you are in the States. If the food serving is HUGE … you know you are in the States. If you get so confused because it’s the world cup and you call it…
Alright, so I just made it back from the US. How was it? It was great. As part of my degree, I was to do a summer internship during the past summer. Among options around the world, I got accepted in Texas A&M university in College Station, Texas. Now that might not be the best location to spend your summer given the hot weather there, but it was a good university to do a useful research. After getting done with…
First day of school was very exciting. Regardless of me getting lost in the city and not knowing where I should go, I was amazed by the style of the academic buildings. Some of them are very traditional old buildings and some of them are new and modern. In both cases, they were all clean, well furnitured, and taken care of. We had a nice day of orientation where we got introduced to the different logistics and regulations. During that day, I met a…
