Story of My Life

Story of My Life

I have chance to see her!! This is my first chance that comes to me since we left each other…

Well, tomorrow she will be in her company’s event as I knew form the shit Facebook, (I don’t stalk her, and she is not on my FB friends list) they have announced about their event on their FB page.

I will not lie to you or even hide it, directly I opened the event on Facebook to check out the date, time and the venue, to know if they will be suitable to me and to know if it will be during my residence in Amman or Riyadh, the best thing that the event is scheduled to be from 4^th to 5^th of Aug., wow the chance is not ready yet as I will be in Riyadh during this period, but after few hours they have extended it to 6^th of Aug … (on my the first day in Jordan).

As usual and without any introduction, my heart starts to affect my mind and push on it to go.

To be honest I do want to go there to see her, talk to her, enjoying her smile and her curly hair, she knows that I do like her curly hair, for the moment I thought to go there and catch her from her hand and kidnap her from the event just like movies, put her in my car drive and drive while listening to her favorite band (Skillet) performing Comatose the first song from her to me, playing with her amazing hair and enjoying her smile, but if she sees me after the whole long time what her reaction is going to be ?

With all of my hopes to see her again and exactly at this time that I need her again in my life, I don’t want to make her gloomy if I went there and did any uncontrollable thing that makes her feel embarrassed at any moment of her life because of me and to not break her lovely image in front of her colleagues.

But at the other hand, she could be proud to have such a great surprise in this time, and to show her friends how much I miss her and ready to do anything for her.

Seriously, I don’t know what shall I do in this, shall I go, or let this chance go away? But if I left this chance no one knows when the second chance could be and then we will meet like we have never met before or we will see each other like somebody that I used to know.

To not make it long, I'm going to stop here, and in my next post you will know if I met her or not.

Thank You.

Google+ forces Facebook to tweak sharing settings

1:54 PM

Mohammad Herzallah

Want evidence that Facebook is feeling the heat of Google+’s success? The company is announcing changes that give users more control over how content is shared. Facebook’s efforts seem to be a response to the most popular features of Google’s social network, praised for its tighter privacy controls.
Tagging has become a popular feature on Facebook, but many of us find ourselves tagged in posts, checkins, or photos that we’d rather not have been. The site now will give users the option to approve all tags before they appear on a user’s profile.
Facebook has made a curious change here, though: a user will be able to tag users that they are not friends with, however, in that case all tags would need to be approved by that person before appearing.

It was not immediately clear if the changes in how tags are process extended to Facebook’s much-maligned facial recognition feature.

Sharing settings have been moved "in-line", meaning they now appear in the entry box to the left of the "Post" button. Each group that it can be shared to will be labled, but of course you’ll have to set up those groups in your privacy settings in order to get the maximum benefit out of the feature.
Facebook is also making it easier to take appropriate action on content that a user is tagged in if he or she finds it objectionable. When removing a tag, users will be presented with a dialog screen presenting three options -- removal of the tag, messaging the user to remove the content altogether, or blocking the individual who tagged you.
"Taken together, we hope these new tools make it easier to share with exactly who you want, and that the resulting experience is a lot clearer and a lot more fun", product vice president Chris Cox said in a blog post describing the new features.

The Bright Side Of The Social Networks

6:10 PM

Mohammad Herzallah

   One day my friends came to my home, we had lots of fun, we played, ate food and more. one of my friends gone to my laptop, he opened his Facebook account and the Facebook asked him to enter the computer name that he just logged in from, and he entered “ C “ -I think-, the main point is the name of the computer has been sent to his cell-phone... I was surprised from that, I asked him about it. He told me that he had done through Facebook website and when they left, I tried this service from my mobile as we all knew all the services that are provided by Facebook are free and I also read that “Facebook does not charge for this service. Standard messaging rates apply.” (1)
   we all knew that each sms cost “0.04 $” + or – , but in this range. OK, I sent F to 98010, as I'm Umniah Jordan client, without any confirmation message they took “1.00 JD” that equal 1.45$ from my account.

   I saw that and the problem began …

   I called the customer service at 11:00 pm, I waited more than 15 minutes until someone picked up, I told them about my problem and he easily told me u should call the Internet customer care at a number that I don't remember, when I heard that, I flipped and I started shouting on him and I told him I wont call anyone else and my problem is with my mobile service not with my Internet subscription, so you have to help me, he didn't try to calm me down and he told me what is the number that you sent the message to , I gave him the number (98010) and he told me no not this number that you sent the message for , he continued you sent your message to 98066 – my angry was increasing – .I told him no I sent to 98010 and the message in my sent items box,and if what did you say right now was right I'll open a case against Umniah...
after that he told me you must visit one of Umniah's shops where that we can help you more.
  I didn't go to their shops and I forgotten my money too.

One month later...

   I was talking to one of my friends about my tweets and he told me you are tweeting every thing in your life, we discussed this and I told him my opinion about my tweets and about why I'm tweeting every thing, after that he told a story happened with his cusion's friend and the Royal Jordanain via twitter. The summary of her story that she was booking on Royal Jordanain and she went to the airport on time to find that her trip was delayed, and the Royal Jordanain didn't call her and also they didn't apologize to her, she started tweeting about her problem while she was waiting to her trip. On less than an hour her tweets arrived to Royal Jordanain and they called her and apologized to her too and they gave her a first class ticket for free as an apology

Well, that was cool, right ? I decided to to try my luck with Umniah on Twitter and I contacted them on their account on Twitter and I told them
“ @Umniahbelong takes from #FB users 1JD to give them sms services that already free,after that my mobile doesn't support this service RT plz “ and
“@Umniahbelong and they also didn't give me back my money daaaaamn on u #Umniah , u r the baaad company ever :( RT plz” .
Between us I didn't have any hope that they will answer me.
after one day they answered me

“ @MohamdHerzallah Good morning Mohammad, sorry for the inconvenience can you please send me your mobile number? “ .

less than 2 minutes my mobile number was with them. And after 3-4 hours they called me and I told her (the girl on the phone) about my problem and she gave me 2 suggestions to solve this problem,

1- activate the service on my mobile and resend the activation code .
2- refund the money to my account, and this is not sure to be performed.
I chose number 2 and she told me I'll open a case about it and we'll get back to you soon, I thanked her , and every thing like a dream but it wasn't a dream.

2 days later...

At 12 : 45 pm they called me and told me we refunded the money to your account and we are sorry about this mistake and have a nice day !! Thank you. Thank you.

This is the power of Social Media and Social Networks, you can take your rights in a perfect, easy, and good way, what are you waiting for. If you still don't have any account on Twitter or Facebook ? don't let all the useful things get out of your hands and don't be afraid and share all your problems with anyone (Individual,companies, or what ever it was ) and, I promise you that if you have evidence about your problem you'll take your rights.

I don't need this song ;)
