oho... i think this is the greatest acheivementy in my life, for now

Today.. one of my leisure day. First, I woke up at 7.40+. Saw Kevin in the messenger, hasn't log out. Actually, we are scheduled to be at school because we had some works to do. Messaged him. He didn't reply. At last, he reply back at 8.40+. He just bangun tidur!!. We siap and head to school by taxi. Actually, they have the gamelan practice today. I found that the UBK teacher is there, along with the girl EAKs. Nothing to do, I had to surrender to the teacher. After been burden with works, the finished-gamelan group saved me from the teacher. Thank god. There were Esther and Lee Kee too!. We head straight to KFC for some quality food. After KFC, we head to the Lady Templer Hospital, or the Klinik Perubatan Cheras, to begin our supernatural research. Whoo... The place is reealy old and reealy creepy. Abandoned building, made in 1952 by the Britishes and opened by the Duchess of someone. Whoa.. the building's first look was, reealy old. Lee Kee and Esther were too afraid, so they wait at the bus-stop. I'm surprised that some of the blocks have been used by some buggers and preferably, drug addicts. And we heard voices of kids too. And then we arrive at the ACTUAL Kinik Perubatan Cheras. It looks like abandoned Universiti Malaya in the 90's. Veery creepy. IF there were no Pusat Perubatan there, I'm sure the place is supreme creepy. There even had a playground there!. Build in March 2005!. The building were really old. We even can see the medical katils there. The place is really have been ransacked by peoples. There were even unused drugs and bottles in the pharmacy!. Kev looks very worried. We head back to the bus stand after finding that we had been overscheduled for the Star Wars Movie. After that we head to the Leisure Mall to watch the Star Wars movie. Too bad Kev left us. The movie was great!. It is my first experience watching movie in theather. We head home after all the fun, leaving Esther alone waiting for her someone to pick her up.

The mood to update my blog comes. Hmm.. lemme start with Thursday. Thursday, I come early to roll-call with the school's Apple. Apple seems to be an interesting OS. But simplicity isn't enough. Installed Sigma Chess on it. Hope teacher don't get mad. And then Lorac came behind me and sergah me. Har har har.. Soo funny. Roll-Call was ok. And then DBS. After DBS we had a spot-check. Everything was unorganized. Maany students get away with their valuables. All kumpulan managed to check properly, except Tegas. With the non-exsistance of the Atika (following Helme to Arif) and some stupid order from Teacher, it was a true messy check. After then we sat in the Bilik Pengawas, playing the Apple's Sigma Chess. He managed to checkmate us (Caleb and me) once. HOW STUPID!. We didn't know that was there. Usually, the computer will think for about 2-3 minutes before making a move. It was instant, and, checkmate. Caleb was.. like.. terpegun.. and we started to laugh like hell, thinking of what stupidness are we. Jiabot and the Guitar members is practising, so they didn't go to duty. Canteen duty, only me and Esther duty. And then came Atika. Simon, GayGuy and YC ponteng duty, again. And then I had to continue my EAK project at the UBK. Sounds of the operation keep dizzing on the UBK. And then I borrow Kevin's camera. I took a few shots of the school. And I manage to take a shot of Lorac!. Everyone was rushing to go out because of the boringness. The concert, was boring. Who want to donate RM3 to school and sit on the dewan like a jobless person. Jiabot came out with an idea to send the poor kitten to the Veterinar Hospital, just ahead from our school. I managed to fetch the teacher to send us to the hospital because she plans to go to the hospital to fetch some information for the Veterinarian Projects. Jiabot then ask me to write my name on the card because I have been on this place before. Aha.. the cat is very energetic. They clean up the cat's feet, bring in some cacing killers and so on. I didn't care about that. It costs RM10 only. I had to pay for that, because I am the so-called cat owner. I came across an idea, since the teacher's vehicle was here, wait for the teacher to finish her work and rob RM10 from her. And then, Mission Accomplished. We head to school back, I was very sleepy, sleep beside the cat (!!). When I woke up, everyone was gone. Had to head home walking. And then came projects projects projects.

Friday was interesting. I came to school super late that day. First thing I notice is, Lorac didn't come that day. We had a Hari Guru day. There were performances on the stage. Wierdly, I was interested in the performances. Selalunya, I didn't like performances on stage. Maybe I was holding Kevin's camera, forcing me to watch the performance. Whoa.. rugi siapa tak datang. Stupid Lorac didn't come. We had a jamuan Hari guru on our class after that. There were spaghetties!. Yum Yum. I took pics of us. The camera was overloaded with pictures and videos. Even Jiabotron come to eat the Spaghetti. Then I head to the Bilik Pengawas, and, sleep. I woke up when Kev and Jiabotron were finished going to the Music class. It was 3.pm+. After that we ronda the school, checking classes that are overloaded with trashes and suing them. And then Kevin was met with his best friend, the firehose. He played with it, like a moron. Then I joined the act. Managed to shoot LeeKee. har har har. After that we head home.

Today?. woke up. After that, I begin some computer beautifying, installing some great programs. Whoa.. My computer is now full of effects. Skinned the computer, with the upcoming Blackcomb skin.

I got the SMM version 3.02 from the emoe servers today (Sistem Maklumat Pelajar). Now I have the key to all the students in Malaysia. nahh... Just deleted it. Too risky.

Today we got nothing to do. Except play play play. But I got the EAK to solve. I even borrow the teacher's Apple. I'll bring it tomorrow, for sure.

Yeah, finally, the exam is over. Finally, I got some room for relaxation. My projects, at this period, is at the "relax zone". Wooho~. Relax babe!. Today's paper is Agama, which I find, more easier than I tought. Still, my marks can be super variable, ranging from 0 to 100, E9 to A1. The agama's paper is okay, LOADS of question appears, which I find, easy. The paper two finished quicker than the Pendidikan Morals, about 1 hour. Never mind then. It's actually my target, to stupidise myself so I can't be the next year's Prefects AJK.

We got a first Prefects Breifing by Mr. Nomad (Mat Noor = Madnor = Nomad). As usual, toughts toughts and toughts, and even ideas. Lorac seems to be easily bored by nonsenses. What does she know?, the brain of Arts students is usually not developed enough.

As usual, after meeting, send Lorac to bus stop, say farewell to her, and head back to school. It was raining man!. HEAVY REINFORCEMENTS FROM THE SKY. I have to use my blazer to protect myself from the continuous attack. Lepak, lepak and lepak. I head home at 5.00 p.m, walking. Arrive home at 5.45 something. As usual, the kids like to call me, "mr handsome". What the heck. I must unbeautify myself to ged rid of the title.

Yeah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~. Time to rest!!!

TechFlasher's website is almost complete. Expect a better site than the rest of my friends because I'm not a noob in designing ;). Ask yourself, what's a CSS?. They'll broke into silence instantly. LOL. In my site, I'll put lots of tutorials inside, so don't worry.

Tomorrow's the Agama paper, one of my enemy. Agama is damn hard, for me. I'm different then the others, they'll say agama is easy, but for me, it's prickinly hard. But indeed, the Amali I scored the highest. Agama used to betray me in the exams, including the PMR exam, which returnes a B. At the day of recieving our result, I'm sweaating because worry about the Agama result. In form 3, the two papers that betrayed me is Seni and Agama.

The streamyx connection keeps disconnecting, or in Asynchorous-DSL modem's word, blinks. It keeps bugging me in games and other online projects. The only way to solve this mystery is to ping a host for unlimited time. My solution is to ping my site, www.mysiddiq.tk and set it to the subcommand -t. And it pings pings pings. It will decrease the streamyx downtime by 75% (roughly, but it's true).

Just came back from Makro Cheras. Hmm.. it turns to be the non-strategic supermarket in Malaysia. The surroundings.. eew.. like a haunted house.

I had a veery strange dream half an hour ago. It must be one of Jiabot's charm, spraying some bad dream charm into the minds of his innocent friends. Hmm.. I will write the sinopsys here, because of some disorganized time today (super sleepy boi). I remembered the climax only, because I'm not a perfect person. In my dream, I saw a very cute girl in a very reasonable dress (since I love cute and cool girls). It turns to be Lorac. She didn't remember me at all. And then came trouble to both of us. Arghh.. I didn't remember. And I'm not wasting time thinking again what happen. If I recall the things happened, I'll write it here. It is a very scary dream, which turns me to be frustrated when I woke (wierd huh?). I once dreamed about Lorac in trouble, and it turns to be true. Lorac at that time is having a semi-bad fever. At that time I am scheduled to be at the stadium for the MSSKL thingy, but it turns to be schooling.

The bilik pengawas is different now, thanks for the help of Jiabot, Kevin and Caleb (and me). We washed the carpet, mopped the floor, re-organize all things and sweep all the microorganism out. I even bring my 2.1 speaker!. Kaboom Kaboom! the bass sounds. I think I should stop kabooming the bass because I'm eating my school's electricity. I leave my 2.1 speaker there, and I hope no one should take that.

Hmm.. I'm still thinking of the bad dream...

Hmm.. in the past few days I had a veery few strange things.

The Physics paper arh?. Damn.. my lack if initiatives is paid at last!. Padan Muka kau apasal tak baca buku!. Owh.. I scored 9 out of 20 questions, not bad for a C. And today,s IT is havoc. The teacher say that "read till word processing". Actually, tyhe topic covered is till the spreadsheet thingy. Majority of us opens our wide mouth and do nothing whilst thinking of our terrile marks that we will receive when the exam starts. Two papers at once!. How disorganized!. WTF!. I remember a question that asks for the formula for the spreadsheet and the macro. WTH. We havent learn it yet la Kementerian!.

OO well.. worst thing happens this week that makes me moodless.

p/s: best jugak main kejar kejar dengan junior

Haha.. at last. At the right time. Now I target 15 A's for my SPM. I take 15 subjects, which is:

Bahasa Melayu
Bahasa Inggeris
Matematik
Sejarah
Agama
Add Math
Fizik
Kimia
Biologi
Perdagangan
Ekonomi Asas
Sains
English in Science and Technology
Geography
Information Technology

hmm.. maybe I should be in for Fundumentals of Programming. And that makes 16 subjects.

Whoa.. boring man!. Today's sejarah was OK. My target is the reasonable C or if I'm lucky, a B. Sejarah paper one was reaaly OK. I managed to sleep after 20 minutes. And then came paper two, the trickier paper. That was OK.

The SMK Cheras's CyberlinQ website is located at HERE. The website is 85% complete. Expect the website will be completed in 3 days from now.

And tomorrow is the scheduled penukaran junior and senior. Lorac is scheduled to change with Helme. eewwwwww. I hate helme. Other is reasonable but not HELME. I hate HIM!. Damn.. Yes master... And I got a new junior. Great great man!.

Hmm.. tomorrow is Fizik, one of three hell papers. And yeah, we is scheduled to have a round of "Fizik revision" today. Gunbound seems to be the ideal Fizik program, the wind, the accleration, deceleraion, the F=ma thingy, the formulae, everything.

Today is Saturday. I'm scheduled to have another trip to LowYat wif Zikri, but it turns to be a trip to Bilik Pengawas. I have to fix the lock thingy. I found that the mechanism inside is broken and the tombol cannot be put in the door. The smartest way is to buy a new lock for the door. Then me and Jiabot sails off to Taman Tenaga, accompanied by two of our long-lasting morons, Chester and Daryl, to buy the new lock. I also gets to buy a new RJ cables to straightens up my connection. Then it's my work to install the new lock. More work I used to, more experience that I gain.

Hmm... EST is ****ingly easy. Easier than I tought.

Wooo~~~~~ super!. In my life, this was the first moment that I target a paper with a grade of E!. AddMath was a fairly easy, but my lack of initiatives makes the paper hardly harder!. E!. E!. haha.. and I am not likely be the next year's pengawas administration team because of my results. Hoho.. one of my missions accomplished!. Tomorrow is the EST paper!. EST is super easy, easier than English paper. Haha.. we have 2 hours of revision time after the damn AddMath paper. Instead of revising, we play chess in the class. Zikri lost to me 3-2 in chess!. Chess professionalism emerges within my body when I'm in form 1. Don't want to write that leengthy story. Kevin lost again with that moron!. How embaressing. We scheduled to have a Gunbound "EST revision" later this day. Lololol.

p/s: Kevin is veery stupid with his BOING emoticon

woo... examination has started!. yesterday was the english paper. it was so... donno. my possiblitiy is C. ahh.. at the first and thesecond paper, i accidently sleep and leaving me with some 30-25 minutes to solve the questions!. craaap. Damn.. it was my mistake. OVERSLEPT!!. Damn.. Why zik didn't woke me up, I wander... Today Jiabot comes to school with his wierd chin. I wander why.. Turns that Jiabot fell when he was in the school, about after I left (7p.m). Haha.. he had a surgery in his chin. Today, the prefect that once had surgery in face is me and Jiabot only. Today was the Math paper, which is, rather easy for me. Why the morons can't answer these simple questions.. It's rather easy, but I didn't strike for an A, because I left some unanswered questions, which are my stupidness. Work harder damnass!. Today, the EAK is paused again because of some lack of lackiness. The camcoder needs FireWire to work. Cikgu Haiza asks me to buy the FireWire thingy, this Saturday.

Whoa.. exams starts!. Today is Bahasa Melayu's paper. Majority says paper 1 is hard. But I say it's eaasy. All you have to do is have a great quantity of imagination and supreme quantity of word banks. But kertas 2 is real tough for me, or should I say, I'm dizzing at that time (sleep, tired, sleep, tired). Donno what will I get. Maybe A, B, C, D, E, F, infinity or even negativeinifinty! (damn lame name). I discovered Apple has uncovered his QuickTime 7 and Adobe has released the Photoshop CS2. QuickTime.. I remember those ol' days. My first QuickTime is the ol' faithful QuickTime 3. Hoho.. Those days..

Tomorrow is English paper. English.. supreme easy. many tought that I'm just a standard Malay who are weak in English. Hmm... I wander what language is my computer is using.. Kadazan?. Aaaanyway, Good Luck to all students who will estimate exam's paper beginning of this week.

however, my adobe photoshop CS2, after effects and premiere 6.5 is finally inside my HD. booo the lame CS!!! CS2 rawks!!!!

exam exam exam exam exam...

Just back from school because of some errands. My home journey reminds me of my ol' stupid times. I picked Intrakota-122 and stop at the Restoran Al-Amal with Malarvilly. Then I straight away to my home. While continuing my journey, I met my ol' school, Sekolah Kebangsaan Bandar Tun Razak (2). Every step reminds me of past history in the school. I was one of the pelajar harapan sekolah and the calon tokoh murid at that time, with a dozen of my friends. It was a fully-Malay school, which is, for me, is good at communication. Chineese students picked Bandar Tun Razak (1) and the Taman Midah archipelagos. At that time, I say, my camouflage is succesful. I sat at the smartest class. All my friends call me super dumb because of my super camouflage, except few. While at the end of standard six, one of the teacher (forgot the names, Mrs. Salina, I think) accidently "saw" my real personality. I remember once she said "Siddiq, you have the most IQ and knowledge in the school, you should not "act" like this". Despite being super-dumb, I have disadvantages. One of that is my rejection in application of prefect and dozens of other pros works. Because of that, I reject all request of representative in all competitions I recieved from the teachers. I stopped at the ol' canteen where I eat everyday for the past days. The food is almost the same. The food is far more cheaper than my schools canteen. The environment is changed and the school is beautified. Synchronizes with that, dozens of old occasions, stupid works and memories suddenly appears in my mind. Never mind.

Ahh... the prefects gathering.. I'm in charge of the booklet and the backdrop. Duh~. Everyone thinks that I'm pro in designing.. and that's gonna be changed in just a matter of few weeks. I saw Lorac's ex-boyfriend, there's a pic of him in his wallet. Duh~. Lorac is playing fire with fire. I know Lorac got a boyfriend earlier then everyone from her action. And, notably, she doesn't know anything about me, a super researcher. May the stupid sign sticks with me, at least this year.

Huh, I've finally done my first task of the year, installing network on my house. I've finally got some crossover cables and Cat.5e cables. Heh, my second DSL-2 future-ready hacked DSL modem is going to be run in matter of few weeks. Full control of internet connectivity in my house is finally emerges!. I had some problem with DHCP and IP address and also installing printer, whereas the stupid slow-like-shit front computer doesn't broadcast signal for the printer. Small matter, every problem has its way of solving them.

Today, the girls in class gives some problem when the prefects meeting. Pui Shan sparked the problem first, followed by Azian. Then came war, where the Soviet surrenders (Pui Shan). Donno le. Oh yea, tommorow is Mrs. Norliza's birthday and Adelynn's birthday's also!.

Just back from school. We had a very simple but coostly dinner. But it was worth because that was the last day with Mr. Moose. He acted so strange lately. But never mind that, as long it didn't affect me. The meeting was soooo lengthly, because of the pengetua's mouth is full of nonsense blabbering. She takes away the microphone and talk talk and talk like shit. Newander the majority hates her. One thing to note, Malarvilly opened the tembok case. Yeah, the tembok case of a veery humiliating problem for the school. I, as the frequent user of the tembok from form one to first semester of form three, is amazed with the long-lasting problem of the tembok. The administration doesn't think far enough. Even morons can think that repairing the tembok will definitely benifit the tembokians. I say, we should do some frequent visit to the tembok, or, use technology, like CCTV, record it at the bilik pengawas or something similar. I think Mr. Jiabot have a gallery of bright ideas to present.

Lorac seems to be getting nicer to me, or maybe it is the effect of the lost thumbdrive.

Today is, my BAD LUCK DAY!!!. This morning, I've done 2 continuous mistakes (not be taken lightly), but for sure, no one knows what I've done except few unlucky peoples in Malaysia. CRAAAAAP. I don't want to talk about that again!. This morning, Lorac told me that she lost my thumbdrive. If other people lost it, I will KILL him and BURN his house, but for Lorac, it's okay. She did her best job to secure my thumbdrive but her "anak buah" played with it and lost. Damn.. how could she lose a simple thing that affects my performance in my IT world?. This morning the juniors was asked to shout, shout and shout, rises their angerness (LOL) and improving their lack of strictiness. After that Jiabot asks the form fourians seniors to stay because of something. Before that, he asks us ideas to change the current training system. Majority of us (us, seniors, but that don't includes me) support the idea that to continue our lame tradition, ragging. But in my opinion combination of ragging (in my definition, ragging is a way to hukum them for their lack of something, but not much) and tests will deserve junior the best. And then sparked some inconsistencies with Jiabot. After the usual fight, Jiabot asks all the form fourians senior to organize a prefects gathering for a purpose.

Today Loke didn't ask the Math II works. Thank god!. If she asks, expect that my name will be first on tomorrow's last-day-with-Mr.-Moose prefects meeting. Life goes on, but today is the most complicated day in the entire week. today, I plan to finish off the EAKs work and start screwing up with the video, but it turns to "alamak, sorry la siddiq, driver hilang la". I tried to find the drivers on the DriverGuide's website. hope that this driver is the right driver.

Today, Lorac asks me to teman her to the Taman Maluri's archipelago, the Jaya Jusco. Heh, it turns out that the thing that she want to buy is sold out. Hopeless and tired, we continue our journey to Mcdonalds, where we spent 2 1/2 hours talking to her. I hope that she brings my asset, thumbdrivey.

p/s: Jiabot: Form Fourians, your team has done well in last week, I shall reward you. Mosaic, I see you back in the boardroom where someone will be fired.

Today I woke up late, between 6.40 - 6.55 a.m something.. And I arrived at school at 7.40 a.m. Haha.. seems to be I'm not the only one who are late. Zalyna also late. And, she cross the road like no one will saw her crossing. Prefects are prihobited to cross the super devastating road. After I finished making business with the pagarians, I notice that the assembly had finished. I didn't notice that there's a prefects gathering at the sudut pidato, till Jiabot notice me and tell that blablablabla (robotic language). Hmm... Mr. Moose is finally stepping to a new school. And, this is his last week. So Mr. Moose wants to organize a prefects meeting at the dewan A.S.A.P. because he wants to elect the new prefects AJK of next year. Hmm.... Thursday... I think I have some works to do. I'll be at the dewan later. One of the reason is I don't want any jawatan, let me be me, a stupid moron. Then after he left after bringing some semi-final speech, Jiabot seeks an idea what to do upon his farewell. The stupid Boo wants to go to the Zoo Negara. How embaressing. After discussing and discussing, we finally picked Pusat Sains Negara as our destination.

Haha.. at the Physics and Chemical lesson, I didn't concentrate because I was busy remembering my speech (orale~ orale!). Haha.. my oral is the worst among the worse. It's like, a 9 hours oral (creating text and remembering), the fastest oral I have ever done, including 5 hours of sleep.

My website initiative is coming.. I've saw Zik's website. Altough his website is veery STUUPUID and LAAME with a "KNIFE", I feel irritated because he has a website!. Because of that, I think, my website is supposed to be completed in this month.

Due to my lack of initiatives, I nearly forgots that I have an oral tomorrow, and I'm still typing this blog entry without thinking about my oral. It's about 13 hours left (at the time I writes) to oralie. I'm sure that Ms. Dodampe~ will bring upon her old lightsaber and slashes me with her super cool moves. Anyway, tomorrow's oral is entitled "What really happened at last night's arguement (Where Did Kak Su Go, English Form 4 textbook), describe in first person or third person". Ahh... it's 11 p.m..

Zik has overclocked his computer, from a mere 550 MHz to 605 MHz (with an increment of 10%). And, the CPU's temp. was 100+ celcius!. It is a serious problem for a lame ol' around-the-corner-till-death-comes motherboard. And, it is capable to boil a jug of water too ;). The CPU reealy needs a better heatsink. Zik lost 7-0 on me (chess you morons!). How shame. Is this a school representative's performance?. Never mind, our last game, I saw his skills are improving. But not better then mine, of course. Dumdadadumdadadum.. who else wants to fight wif me? Anyone?.

Superb!. My three day of holiday plan is ruined!. Whatever~.

p/s: I hope that Ms. Dodampe will bring some reinforcement, or maybe Obi-Wan-Kenobi, Anyone?

Haha.. I have 50 invites left. Google mail is a 1 GIGABYTE monster mail server that currently in beta service. Anyone wishes to have a Gmail account please contact me, or contact me

MSN = ahmad_siddiq[bertempat di]hotmail.com

Now the war has begun!!. Chess club is trying to defend itself with its "chess" trademark and Computer Club is trying to penetrate the Chess Club's holes of weakness. Lucky Chess club has a very defendive and excellent co-leader, Jiabot. He seems to be ignoring us after the intense argument.

This is the whole argument file : Debate
And this is Jiabot and his pengerusi's conversation : Debate number 2

Seems to be here that the Chess Club's pengerusi is absolutely useless. I reeally respect Jiabot, trying to defend a blown up club. But all the desicion is in my hands. I know Simon and y@m~y@m will absolutely says "ntah, sukahati awak lah. awak kan administrator of the event". I came across the idea because LAST YEAR I hope that chess Club organises competition universally, but THEY DIDN'T. I'm stuck beetween these decision: yes or no.
