Good evening, I am Abdallah and I study programming, but my hobby is playing football , exercising in the gym and watching films . I also like to try different foods. In this blog, I will talk about my daily life and creative ideas that will be with me for 45 days starting from today. I went to university today, but the road took a long time because I go using public transportation. I came up with the idea of ​​subscribing to a private bus company, as it saves effort, time and money as well, because private buses take a shortcut to the university and do not have to stop from time to time as public transportation does. These buses also have a fixed schedule, so they are always available, unlike public transportation, which is not available due to crowding most of the time. Private buses are also more comfortable and air-conditioned.

  Good evening, I am Abdallah and this is the blog of 45 days of creativity. I am a very good follower of football, especially European football, but I face a big problem in following European football, which is the usufruct rights and copyrights. These rights are despised by a channel called (bein sports). These property rights prevent any channel in the Middle East from broadcasting European matches except the channel that has obtained the rights. This brings them a lot of money, in addition to the fact that their subscriptions are very expensive. Therefore, I found that it is possible to watch these matches on free Latin channels, but one of the negatives of this idea is that you will not enjoy the unique Arabic commentary, but in return you will save a lot of money.

  Good evening, I am Abdallah, and this is the third day of the 45 Days of Creativity blog. The creative idea for today is that I programmed an application to facilitate transactions between customers and the pharmacy staff owned by my brother. This application includes the available goods and their quantities. It also includes the availability dates of unavailable goods. It also has the ability to reserve goods that are difficult to find. It also has a conversation between customers and the staff in order to order products and deliver them to homes. This application also has an icon for customer complaints, whether these complaints are about the quality of the products or the staff. This application is also financially profitable, as every time a customer uses the application, ads appear for him. These ads are profitable and continuous with every use by any customer. This was the idea of the third day of his 45 Days of Creativity blog.
