I've got nothing much to blog about. In fact I never have anything to blog about. Well there are some things that have been going on but yeah I'm gonna be secretive and all censored and shit. Isn't that just frustrating? HAH

With the qualifyings just around the corner, a student like me should be studying and worrying about the exams. I've got half of that done as I'm constantly doing the latter but not the former. Instead, I'm dwindling away updating this sorry excuse for a blog. Well whatever makes me happy right?

The past week has been kinda 'different' because although its still the same old same old but with a touch of new. Nothing much happened on Monday or Tuesday, but Wednesday you might say was the bomb for me. We played futsal and I got plenty of scoring chances. If I'm not mistaken I had about ten or more chances on goal and the majority of those attempts on goal were with my head. This was mainly because my other teammates kept crossing the ball conveniently to my head. However scoring a goal from open play was never meant to be for me. I got a goal under my belt though through a penalty kick. I was pretty relieved after scoring the penalty because I missed a lot of chances before that and I didn't want to disappoint. The game ended in everyone having fun. I don't remember who won but I think it was the other team. Later after the game, I learnt that the reason why I was given so many chances was that Jimmy told the others that I wanted to score a goal with a header. So I'm really grateful because of that.

Team 1: Jimmy, Kahar, Zai, Adeq, Vovie, Faris, Azim (Tom), Azim (Mami), Piring (saucer), Wafri and Bahri.
Team 2: Hanis, Hadi, Zimin, Azmi, Semiun, Ali, Wafi Z, Sim, Dao, Hazwan and I think I forgot the others hahahah.

Well my day wasn't actually a day, it was more of an afternoon/evening cos i only did stuff during that time.

The plan for the afternoon and evening was to go to Charcoal as Michelle had invited me the day before. The plan was simple for me as transport was Krandhell and permission was given just as long as I returned back home after.

Kran picked me up at 4 o'clock right after she picked up c Meips (who is very very cool!) and we went to the airport to fetch some money. But with the place being packed, there was no room for me or fadhil to move so we decided to go to the Soon Lee Department Store at Lambak. I nearly had a heart attack when I was withdrawing money because I nearly withdrew $200 instead of $20. Crazy ah. Kran had a problem when he used the ATM so we decided to go to another ATM just to waste time.

We went to the ATM just above the hill near Soon Lee and as Fadhil left the car to fetch some money, I was left alone in the car with Meips. I wanted to ask her about the FHM mag me and zimin pestered her to buy for almost a week, but I assumed she didnt get it since she didnt mention anything about it. So we chatted for awhile about how fun her trip to Singapore. As Kran came back into the car, he told us the ATM wasn't working for im there either so we went to Kiulap to get his money and there we did.

After that it was straight on to Batu Satu where Charcoal was. Since we were there pretty early, at around 5, we decided to check out the new arcade in the area. In my honest opinion it was very dull and had quite a hostile feeling about it. But we tried out some games and yes, it was a load of crap!

After that we went to Best Eastern where we spent almost 20 mins there until the arrival of a certain someone namely c Zimin. Ia jalan dari Yayasan all the way to the place. Gila. Then we went straight to Charcoal and waited for the others to come. It was well about half an hour before Michelle and Dao came. Then soon after Hanis came and after that Sue too. It was tons of fun. Too bad not many came. Guess others were not informed about it and I sincerely apologise for being BEEKAY!

Here are some pics:

Me and Soulja Boy! I was halfway through my meal while Soulja Boy had already finished his.
Funny thing is we ordered the same thing.

DLF said that he could finish this and guess what? HE DID!!!!
But before he finished he said, "I can't swallow anymore meat!".
Guess he's just modest... and a bit perverted and bicurious.

The predator pounced with sheer malice on it's well done prey!

Everyone full and satisfied except for Soulja Boy who was still hungry.
Tu si DLF kan muntah ah.

Highlight of the night! You rock Meips! woowoowoowoowoo FHM!!!

Yup Megan Fox! and the yellow label says:
"Unsuitable for the young"
Why? We were just reading the articles about eco-friendly cars!

MEIPS SURPRISED ME AND ZIMIN WITH THE FHM MAG. I WAS SPEECHLESS WHEN SHE DID THAT!

AGAIN MEIPS YOU ROCK!!!!

SERIOUSLY THANK YOU!

oh yeah after that we sent zimin and sue home. at around 10 o'clock I arrived home and I stealthily sneaked in. Funny thing was that nearly an hour after I came back, I got a call from my dad asking me where I was. Haha.

PS: oh yeah to the suckers who want to borrow the mag... DREAM ON!!!! aku sama zimin ganya dapat HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

Charcoal

(SPOILER: LAME/BORING POST!)

Ok today was cool. During history we decided to have a revolution against science subjects but this should be a secret so if you wanna know just ask me. We're planning to break the trend and set a new one. One which will be seen as our legacy. Our road to glory. The rise of humanity subjects. And the public realization of the overrated nature of science subjects.

HAHAHA.......

Gila hyper ku eh.... I've been like this since morning. This is maybe because of the fact that I was too tired to actually feel what i was supposed to or maybe because this was just a fun day. Why not ask zimin or carrr, surely they'll agree that it was a fun day. In the morning during free period, I worked on the msyouth video and I had my first screening. It wasn't big though. Only a few watched it but mostly came with satisfactory comments. Some mentioned there were a few parts that needed to be worked on and for that I thank you for making me not look like a fool. It was rather satisfying to receive such positive response. Now I know it was all not for waste. Even the teacher-in-charge of the Msyouth complimented it. But I don't want to be too excited cause I'm not sure whether it would appeal to others as someone said that the video was quite boring and would make people fall asleep. I'm not gonna name names *cough*amal*cough*. ahem....

Well apart from that, in the afternoon we were busy preparing for the Environmental Week. Some of us were transplanting the plants up for adoption into pots. We had lots of fun as not only did we do it with loads of company but also we did it without a care in the world of getting our hands dirty. We also helped out in preparing articles for the exhibition and also some went to fix the sculptures from the sculpture competition.

In the afternoon, a graduation meeting for heads and asst heads of committees was held. It was quite productive as we learned about the progress of other committees. However, we could all be more productive. During the meeting, my idea of having the graduation near the school i.e. the banquet hall at hua ho manggis was finally acknowledged by Wan. I was happy when I heard this because people rarely listen to me and take me seriously (This confuses me cause I can always be seen so how come I am rarely heard?). But the drawback of this is that the desire of many might not be fulfilled as most preferred to have the graduation night somewhere else i.e. Empire Hotel. Dont get me wrong, even though i proposed to have the graduation night at Hua Ho, I wanted to go to Empire also. But it seems that its out of our price range. Apart from hua ho, polo club jerudong is also an alternative. I dont know about the place though but i hope its good. Also during the meeting I was talking to Carrr about the awards I'd be able to win: biggest, best white-hair, best jugger bitch!, best bahri and fattest. The 2nd and last one I've got competition though especially the last one as I have to compete with Fadhil, Waqi and Adeq. Damn!

Ok now off to a more important issue.... ADA ORANG BIRTHDAY INDA LAMA LAGI (08/06/2008)!!!! wait let me rephrase that:

ADA LEPRECHAUN BIRTHDAY INDA LAMA LAGI (08/06/2008)!!! MMMMM... AMBUYAT!!!!!

haha atu plg ganya.

PS: history rocks!

Well for about a week now me and the msyouth group have been working on the msyouth video which would be shown next week. I learned two things from making the video: first, its very stressful and second, my computer sucks.

Despite so, i find it rather fun. I dont know why though.... seriously haha.

Ok today was rather fun. In the morning I didnt have to do much since it is a thursday and we had cca today. Maths was ok, history was better than usual and physics was just bearable. Something happened during history time though. The Deputy Principal 1 (i dont want to mention names) came to our history class and told me that she had just picked me to go to the Sunburst Youth Camp held in Singapore at the end of the year. I was rather surprised in hearing this though because I seriously think there are others more deserving to go. Also I dont think I have a chance since the government only allows representation for the country once in every four years. The last time i represented the country was in 2005 when i was part of the delegation going to Jogjakarta, Indonesia for the International Junior Science Olympiad. I guess another person would be given the opportunity as i was already given one not long ago.

However I stil have to go to the interview next week on the 11th of June. I heard that in the interview itself I'd be asked to dance/sing or do both. I dont know if i have the guts or integrity to do so. Maybe I'd just end up spill my guts.... haha.

Now enough about that. After break-time we had MS Youth. I was asked to take the group photos of the Form 5 and Form 3 groups since they didnt bring any camera and that I clearly had one.

After all that was done with, we started our session. The pra-U2s were divided into 4 groups and jobs were delegated among us. The first group (adeq, wan, hayaah, adib, sim and zudin and khaliq sometimes) took the responsibility of judging the posters submitted by form 1 and 2 students for the poster competition in collaboration with the environmental week which would be held next week. The second group was the adopta plant group. Michelle, Azim, Hanis, Mei Ping and a few others whom i regrettably forgot took this task. They were supposed to come up with names and personalties of the plants that would be up for adoption next wee. The third group (zimin, afiq and i forgot again haha) were to help Cikgu Yani to arrange things in the audi for next week and also bring out and repair the sculptures (especially the pahlawan one).

The final group was the video editing group. The group comprised of Mal, Zudin, Ainul, me, zimin at first and i think that was it. Khaliq and Sim were also there but they didnt stay static as he involved himself in other groups also. Mal, Zudin and Ainul went around school to interview some teachers while i was left to edit the videos. It was great. I worked on 3 computers (mine, Mal's and zimin's). On Mal's computer was used for music selection, my computer was used for browsing the web and transferring data while Zimin's was used to edit the videos (pictures of me working will be posted depending on whether i get a hold of them or not). It was rather cool doing these things and I could say others seemed envious by just looking at me (HAHAHA). Sim provided me with some awesome music. After that we had lunch and i continued on editing in the library with Khaliq, Sim and Adeq.

Yup 3 laptops... c meips ucap aku setaie ah
(thanks for the pic meips!)

Well the highlight of the day would be the environmental talk we had in the afternoon. A presenter from the Canadian High Commission came to talk to us about the environment. We talked about how and what we can do to save the world from the crisis it is facing now. He also gave us a brief account of Canada. After a few minutes of talking, he showed us a DVD. The Dvd was a collection of animated stories by Frederic Back. He showed us the story, The Man Who Planted Trees. It tells the story of one shepherd's long and successful singlehanded effort to re-forest a desolate valley in the foothills of the Alps near Provenance in the first half of the 20th century.

The story to me was rather touching and I wasnt alone on this one as I saw Michelle weep at the end of the video. The shepherd, Elzeard Bouffier, lived in solitude and his everyday routine was to plant trees. It was magnificent. It was to me a perfect picture of an ideal life as although he was alone, he had done what he had loved. I thought that this was a true story however when I wikied the movie, Elzeard Bouffier was just a fictional character and the story was made to make trees likeable or planting trees likeable. However even with its fictional origin, i cant deny that it was inspirational.

Next was discussion time and it was rather productive. As an end note, the speaker gave us his life principle which was the Tree Principle. He said that we are made of three things, our roots, trunk and branches and leaves. The roots symbolizes he people you are with who support you. The trunk is the part of yourself which you can never change which is your personality and attitude. Lastly the branches and leaves symbolizes our skills and specialties.

There was this one thing he said which hit me the hardest. When he talked about the branches and leaves of our life, he mentioned that none of those will ever grow without knowledge. He said that "knowledge is like sunlight and its up to you whether you want to absorb it or not". Nothing else can be said about it. Thats more than enough motivation for me to strive for the best. But im still pessimistic as i constantly fear that i may disappoint myself one day.

End of rambling... back to work!

PS: to the economists (zimin, munji.... uhhh forgot haha) sitting for their econs paper tomorrow good luck!

ok today was kind of eventful...

the morning sucked though. maybe because of the three days holiday we just had so probly im a bit jet lagged. haha. first i had physics and still after learning about op-amps for the past 2-3 weeks, i dont understand anything. so it seems like i muddled my way through class saying yes, ummm and reacting to any action (newtons 3rd law haha).

then came history. gila boring banar. macam seriously... we had to do this thing about the jacobins and directory shit and at the end of the lesson i only wrote a page. tapi at least waqi was there to entertain me with his silly questions, arguments and utter nonsensical randomness.

break-time i ate rice. i like rice especially when theres other condiments to eat it with. rice is white and i ate chicken too. haha i know. well at least during break time i got a few shots of the dirty canteen.

ok after that i just dont remember what i did in maths. something about complex numbers and stuff. kinda boring but thank god ada the guys (zudin, hanis, adeq, azim, zimin). Next was gp and we were supposed to write a poem except no one took interest. the only one i saw engulfed in writing was munji. others tried to write poems in groups and near to the end of the lesson me and khaliq decided to write one together as well. The rules stated that one or more of the 5 senses (sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch) should be included. we decided to include all of them and here im proud to publish our poem:

If your sight is right,
your hearing will be boring,
your taste will be a waste,
your smell will be like hell,
and your touch will be as such.

not bad right? we did it in under 3 minutes (no i was not timing it). hahahaha

during lunchtime we had physics and like in the morning the whole class just muddled through it. after that i went to the canteen to meet up with the guys and then went to the audi with DLF. there we met the other guys and eventually fadhil and zimin came (or was it the other way around?).

then kami jalan lah macam biasa. it was me, DLF (dear little friend), cjeng (zimin) and krandhell (fadhil) in the InitialDil (car...). me and zimin were, can be said, dropped off at hsbc and there we we got our atm cards and headstart cards. however zimin was a little distraught after that because one of the workers there, lets call her amal, gave zimin the cold shoulder who he hoped would recognise us (ia plg ganya... pasal masa ia buka account was with the girl). ok after that kami makan and balik ke skulah.

at school i am proud to say we finally caught rempit iblis who has been plaguing our school with his annoying sprints around the school. i went back at 5.20 baie wah. also masa balik nada lagi electricity. now that sucked.

tapi the good thing about today was that my dad has told me that hes planning to buy a new car (secondhand plg). so after kami dinner tadi we went out for awhile, just me and my dad. we went to this place near pulaie and we looked at a prado and my dad cakap he liked it and contemplated whether to buy it or not and replace the goddamn previa with it. i was in total agreement as i'd prefer anything than the previa. he's still thinking lol tapi with the pricetag of $25,000, he might settle for another car.

on my way back i learned something new from my dad. he told me that if you obey the rules/law you can never go wrong. however i did not agree fully but as i was just about to say what i felt, i stopped. i thought i should give him some slack and also i realised what he said was true. following the general order of things can bring you no harm. even if others dont like it. however i believe to achieve progress, some rules should be bent but not broken.

ps: actually i wanted to post something about what we did on saturday (31st May 2008) but im just too lazy to do so. so here are a few pics:

the whole crew haha

haha nice...


kanyang.....

aku ganya yg inda masuk haha


DLF and zimin both wrote their accounts of that oh so wonderful day. so better read theirs lah and eksen saja aku yg tulis. whats the use of friends if you can't exploit them, right?
