Man, what a day! I swear, Al-Ahmadi really knows how to throw a curveball. So, I roll outta bed, right? It’s like 6 AM, and I’m already feelin’ the heat. I mean, it’s Kuwait, so duh, it’s hot. I grab my coffee from that little spot on Al-Mansour Street. Best brew in town, no cap.
I’m sippin’ my coffee, and boom! My phone buzzes. Work calls. I’m an operator, so I gotta be on my A-game. I hop in my car, and let me tell ya, the traffic on the 30 Highway is a nightmare. Like, why do people forget how to drive? I’m stuck behind this dude who’s just chillin’ in the left lane. C’mon, man! Move it or lose it!
Finally, I get to the site on Al-Ahmadi Street. It’s a construction zone, and it’s chaos. I’m talkin’ hard hats, drills, and a whole lotta noise. I’m tryin’ to coordinate everything, but my brain’s like scrambled eggs. I’m runnin’ around, makin’ sure everyone’s doin’ their job. And then, outta nowhere, this guy trips over a cable. I mean, seriously? It’s like a scene from a bad comedy.
But then, something cool happens. I meet this old dude, Mr. Khalid. He’s been around forever, knows all the ins and outs of Al-Ahmadi. He starts tellin’ me stories about the old days. Like, did you know Al-Ahmadi used to be just a small oil town? Now it’s this bustling hub. I’m all ears, man. His stories are gold.
But then, back to reality. My phone rings again. It’s my boss. Ugh. He’s like, “Where’s the report?” I’m like, “Dude, I’m literally in the middle of a circus here!” But I can’t say that, so I just nod and promise to get it done.
After a long day, I finally wrap things up. I’m exhausted, but I’m feelin’ good. I head over to the Al-Ahmadi Mall. Gotta treat myself, right? I grab some shawarma from this spot on the corner. Best shawarma ever! I’m munchin’ away, and life’s good.
But then, I see this kid drop his ice cream. My heart breaks a little. I mean, who hasn’t been there? So, I buy him another one. His face lights up, and I’m like, “Yeah, that’s what it’s all about.”
As I’m walkin’ back to my car, I can’t help but think about how crazy today was. Al-Ahmadi, man. It’s wild. From the traffic to the stories, to the little moments that make it all worth it. I love this place, even when it drives me nuts.
So, I hop in my car, crank up the tunes, and head home. Tomorrow’s another day, and I’m ready for whatever Al-Ahmadi throws at me next. Bring it on!
