Dubai AirShow 2009




Dubai Air show is one of three most important air exhibitions in the world. Dubai Air show first started at 1989 with 200 exhibits and 25 aircraft.

On 18th of November 2009, me and my class visited the Air show with Mr. Tridib. OMG!!

It was amazing o0o0of really thrilling :D

When it first started around 2:00 pm I started jumping on my toes and never stopped screaming!!

Whenever the sound of the aircraft was too loud, my screaming kept increasing and increasing I felt so excited. hehehe!!

emmm, during the show time I kept taking photos ofthe aircrafts performing amazing show.

First, we went to see the private jets from inside. This was one of them but I can't remember its name but I do remember its price which was only $31 million ;p

Let the photos talk .. they speak better than I do :D



Thank you Dubai, my class mates, and for sure Mr. Tridib for the wonderful time I had :D
I will never forget this day

Google docs


Right now I feel really sleepy and not feeling well :(

But what to do .. this is life :(

I would like to show how I'm using Google docs in group work.



I have created 2 word documents until now. The first document was to write the interview questions for the interview we went to AMAN company. The second documents was to write the reflection for a marketing project.

I shared the files with my group members. I think it is a very good idea to save your work online If your computer gets stuck or dameged and you have a very important thing.

AMAN - Dubai Islamic Insurance & Reinsurance Company visit



Yesterday, 5th of November 2009 me and my group visited one of most well known insurance companies in UAE.

We arranged for this interview because we had a project in Marketing Financial Services course. We met their with Mr. Rashid Al Meeza, Deputy Chief Operating Officer and Ali El Ostah, Manager-Commercial Dept. During the interview every student should focus on a particular aspect of the 8P's of the marketing mix.

I was responsible to prepare and ask the questions related to the product. AMAN has many insurance products, but we chose one product, fire insurance.
The reason was recently many warehouses, factories and stores were burned so this had a big effect on the insurance companies due to large compensates. For individuals in UAE many of them aren't aware of the benefit if purchasing a fire insurance so we decided to take this product.

The two men were so kind and helping us too much. They answered our questions with long answers. what's more, they had many discussions with us to enhance the understanding of the answers.

What was most interesting, when I asked about the brand name AMAN and how does it influenced people's reliability and loyalty and the logo and it's colors here stopped me Mr. Rashid and asked me and the other group members
about the logo what should they change to make it better. We all had a silent moment and then start discussing and coming up with the ideas.

Fortunately, our answers were close the his ideas and then he told us that the company all ready went through the process of changing the logo with the same ideas which meant that thanks god we were good enough to impress the D.C.P.O !!

All in all, this was a very useful experience and I enjoyed it very much :)

Google Calendar



Yesterday I opened up my Google Calendar and started adding my staff. Even when I was creating the calendar I learned few new things.

I changed my calendar name to Salha Al Dosary.
I enabled one of Google Labs facilities (Background image) and changed the background.
I enabled another facility of Google Labs (temperature).
I changed the labels colors and shared my calendar with my group members.

It is a very useful tool to manage our work and time in the college :)

This is how my calendar looks


Thank u Google & Mr. Tridib :p
