The Best Birthday Present Ever

Tuesday, July 7, 2009 at 9:57 PM

In my last post I told you guys that I didn't come on my birthday and the day after,correct. Well this is one of the reasons why. The guys giving me the 'present' which makes me officially 19. Well a very sticky and smelly one to be exact. It was exciting but at the same time nerve-racking. I came to school today,prepared and ready for the worst to come. Brought my goggles,extra t-shirts,towel,pants,and a one clean underwear. Though I forgot to bring a lot of shampoo,soap and a toothbrush. To be honest,I was kinda scared of what they will do to me. After what happened to Zaid,mine should be meaner,bigger and a lot grosser. In school,the guys kept smiling and telling me Happy Birthday!Happy Birthday! I know they were up to no good. I was very alert in school today because I know they can strike at any moment. After recess,I know it was time to change. As expected,the event was held exactly after the bell rang. I could see the guys from Fatan running up to class excited and all. Bear gave me the first hit. He came up to me smiling and said,"Rizz,Happy Birthday!!" PooooOOP!!! his gigantic hand full of flour,smacked down my head. I was soon lead to the toilet and the real action was about to start. It was started by Harish. He put some really smelly, a few weeks old compressed tahu mixed with god knows what,on my head. Damn him wey!! I felt like puking at the time. When he opened the plastic bag,I could already smelled it from far. It was one of the smelliest shit I've ever smelled in my life and to make things worst,I was on my head!! I wanted to puke!! Luckily I was still cool enough to control it.LOL. After that,more flour came,then some sticky water or something. It was really colourful.LOL. There were some many colours. I was already blinded by all the flour and water and couldn't see what else hit me. I think there was also glue because after the event,my hair was so sticky and hard. Ooh,natural wax.LOL. Well checkout the videos for yourself. Overall,it was kinda fun.

PS to Harish: I can't wait for your birthday. I better start shaving my balls now.LOL. Oh by the way,do you like Soya Bean? Mixed with some special seasoning.LOL.

Thank You A'a

I'm writing this post specially for A'a AKA ... LOL. Okay,I'm not gonna reveal your real name. I would like to thank you very much for specially singing,play the guitar and take the time and trouble to make a video specially for me. Eventhough,you know that you suck,your voice was off tune,your guitar skills was crappy and your editing sucks. You still did it. Thank you. Eh kidding only la,it was the best!! Usually if I talk bad about someone,it means the other way round. Thank you again. You are truly a great and wonderful friend. Though you can be doink and crazy sometimes. Kidding. Oh by the way,when is your birthday again? I keep forgetting. Oh don't expect your video to come on anytime soon because it will probably take a while.LOL. To anyone else,if you don't know what I'm taking about,watch this video. Thank you again!!

Happy Birthday to Me!!

Friday, July 3, 2009 at 11:21 PM
Woohoo!! I'm 19 already!! I just turned 19 yesterday. Damn,I'm so old already. Thanks to everyone that remembered my birthday. I'm quite touched that a lot of my friends remembered my birthday. Thank you again. To those who texted me at 12am,too bad to tell you that I was in Singapore at that time. So that is the reason why it cost more than usual.LOL. Sam and I wanted to watch Transformer since it came out but it seems that everyone does too. The tickets were always sold out! So I finally decided to book the tickets and found out that Wednesday got a few empty seats. I was already so excited and told Sam that we were gonna watch it on Wednesday. Suddenly I just remembered that on Wednesday I got Swimming course in Singapore!! So I told Sam if he wanted to follow me to Singapore and watch the movie in Singapore since I already promised him. By the way,Arjun you suck and you know why. So on Wednesday the day before my birthday,we went to Singapore accompanied by some other idiots. Went to Northpoint since it was near the swimming pool to book the tickets first. Guess what? In Singapore it was like empty!! Singaporeans don't like to watch movies? Then we went to eat at Burger King and went window shopping for a while. When it was time for my training,I went to the swimming pool while the rest went to town I think. They managed to see the ending part of my training when I had to do CPR on someone. It was kinda funny. After training,we went to Northpoint to watch Transformer!! Met with the rest and I'm impressed!! Transformer super nice wey!! Plus Megan Fox is so hot!! and she is not a man la,I did my research. You guys know that the paparazzi likes to make false report. She was only saying it sarcastically when she said that. Okay after the movie we went back JB but on the way back to JB,I kinda got lost and ended up taking PIE instead of CTE.LOL. So I nearly ended up going the whole of Singapore in one night.LOL.

First of all,I'm scared to death to go to school. On the 1st of July was Zaid's birthday,so we all gave him the best birthday gift ever. Eggs,flour,3 days old dadih,some drain water,some that had been at the back of the Art room for months,syrup,and so on.LOL. The best I say!! But sadly,yesterday was my birthday and it is my turn!! Oh man!! I didn't come to school yesterday and today due to a few obvious reasons. But I have to come on Monday and I'll be expecting a crazy one. People,please remind me to bring a pair of goggles,a shirt,a pair of pants,underwear,earplugs,towel,a whole lot of shampoo,toothbrush,toothpaste,a lot of body soap and slippers. Thank you. Can't wait for Monday. Before Monday though,I have to go out somewhere and celebrate.LOL. Can't wait!!

A Poem For My Teacher

Thursday, July 2, 2009 at 4:36 PM
A few days before teacher's day,I thought to my myself,"should I do or buying anything for my teachers?" Suddenly,Pn Haslin came to my mind!! Why do I keep thinking about her? Pn Haslin is my MUET teacher. She is a very strict teacher but at the same time cool and open minded. We can talk about almost anything in class. I don't know how to explain it but somehow,she touched my heart in her own 'expressionless' way. She will always have that funny smile and puzzled face when me or my classmates ask her some private or funny questions. Personally,I think she can be a comedian. She won't show much expression but she will always say something really funny that will definitely make me and my classmates laughed our nuts out. She is very strict about coming to class late. There was this one time,Karthik and I came to class late because we took very long to eat and her period was exactly after recess. When we reached class,she told us to go to the library. She didn't scold us or showed any signs of hatred towards us for coming to class late. Instantly, it made Karthik and I realise that we did something wrong and it was our fault. The next day,Karthik and I were eating at the canteen when we saw Pn Haslin walking past the canteen to class. It was still early but we didn't wanna cause any problems,so we took some final scoops of our food and ran up to class. She laughed at me when I choked on my food because I didn't digest my food properly and ran up after that. Me and my friends also ask her opinion regarding our problems,relationships,stories and even the things we go through each day. She even tells us her stories about her ex boyfriend and so on. To be honest,I couldn't imagine her being in love until she told me her stories. Overall, she is one of the coolest teachers I've known in my whole life. So for teacher's day,I wanted to do something for her. Since I'm cheap,I didn't want to spend money on her. Anyway,anyone can buy her gifts and I wanted my gift to be more special then any other students that had given her or will give her. So I decided to write her a poem. I know lame right. So I was on my quest to write her a poem. Like usual,I go to the park for inspiration. Hanged out with Arjun and he helped me with the poem and some other sources. Finally,the poem was done. Here is how the poem goes,

Teacher's Day
Pn Haslin,
the art of language is taught by you
forever I will remember you
students come,students go
to them you'll be forever be true
sharing,guiding and caring till the end.

You paint my mind
you guide my thoughts
you share you're achievements
and advise my faults.

You understand your students
you're open and smart
you're a talented teacher
I knew it from the start.

Of all the teachers in EC
you're the finest there is to me
Oh Pn Haslin you're so sweet
without you,my life's incomplete.


By the coolest student you'll ever have,
Hariz
18 May 2009.



Actually the end of the poem,without you,my life's incomplete. I wanted to put, without you,I'll be like shit. but shes a teacher. Got to remember that. On teacher's day I didn't come. So the next day,I tried to find her. Since MUET is all over,she won't be entering my class anymore. I couldn't find her at all. Then the exams came,so I was really busy I didn't get to recite her the poem. After the holidays, I finally got the chance to recite her the poem. It was recess time and Harish told me that she was at the staff's room. So I ran up to take my book. Soon after,all of us went to the staff's room. There were about 13 or 14 guys all behind me. We reached Pn Haslin,and she asked us what we wanted. Try imagine 13 or 14 guys standing in front of you smiling and giggling. I didn't want to recite her the poem then because I was really nervous. Anyway we were in the staff's room. I actually planned to knelled down and recite to her but I was too nervous. I was sweating and shaking at the same time. I saw a box of tissue nearby and took some to wipe off my sweat. She noticed I was carrying a book and she asked me "what is that?",looking confused. Then,I gathered all my courage and put all the nervous feeling aside and told her then I wanted to recite to her a poem. She was like "Ok,go on." The rest gave me some space. I slowly opened my book and recite it to her. While I was reciting the poem to her,I could see that her eyes were very watery and as if she was about to cry. After that,we all went back to class.
A few days later,she saw me and called me. She gave me a letter and asked me to read it.
I didn't understand some of the words she wrote due to her handwriting.LOL. But it was very meaningful. This is what she wrote on the letter.


Dear Hariz,
First of all, I would like to express my appreciation for the rendition of the poem recently. I hope you will be happy to know that despite my 'expressionless' face, I am deeply touched by your attempt. Whether or not you are sincere with your rendition, I am glad that you made an attempt in proving your worth.
With all sincerely, in my opinion your are a very talented young man who will improve with time. Although you might not approve, I strongly believe that you will succeed in whatever you pursue. I know you like to read, with a definite interest in a variety of topics. I hope your passion will serve you well.
Thank you Hariz for enlightening my teacher career with your 'colourful' behaviour. It has been interesting trying to understand you and I hope I meet with your criteria of what a teacher or how a teacher should be.
Good luck, young man and your future undertakings. Do not lose hope and remember your roots. Insyaallah, He will show you where you should go.

Sincerely,
Haslin Ismail
EC 2009.


After reading her letter,I felt really touched that she even took the time to write me back a letter and I think she had been holding the letter for some time and looking for me. I was really inspired after reading it. Anyway when she said 'expressionless' face,I don't think its true because I could see that she was touched by my poem. I've never seen her like that before. I'm just glad she liked it. Should have recorded that time but we were in the staff's room. If I took out my phone,surely will get confiscated.

Anyway,thanks to all of you for reading my story. I'm just happy that,you guys find the time to read my story and visit my blog. Thanks to all. Without all of you,blogging will be boring.

A few days ago. Arill came up to me and told me he wrote a song for 'you know who'. I was like "cool!! Nice man!! When you're gonna sing it to me?hahaha." He told me he wants to find the guitar chords for the song. So I told him I'll bring the guitar to school and we can go find it after school. A few days later,I didn't come to school because I was feeling a bit under the weather. When I woke up,I checked my phone and I got a text message from Zarif asking me to bring the guitar today. I was feeling better already,so i texted him telling, I'm coming to school to pick them up. I reached school and we decided to go to Danga Bay to find the chords. We managed to finish the song. So here is how the song goes.

Arill opened my blog a few days ago and he watched the video of him singing. He laughed like crazy and constantly told me to delete the video.LOL. I was like "NOOooo.."LOL. I told him if you want,we can record a new one. I was like "Take it,and go."LOL. So here is the new version of Dan Sebenarnya Cover. To tell you the truth,not much differents.LOL. Here you go.
PS to Arill:If you still don't like it,we can record it again,this time with planning and a good camera if you want.LOL.

Dan Sebenarnya by Arill and Zarif

A few weeks ago,Arill,Zarif,Hafiz,Harish and I sat by the sea and just chilled. We sat there sharing stories while singing and playing the guitar. For those few hours,we completely forgot about all our problems and simply laughed our balls out.LOL. We had some male bonding time.LOL. I know it sounds gay but it was fun. Oh,did I mentioned that Arill dropped his specs into the sea.LOL. Okay,not actually into the sea but if it was high tide,it would be in the sea.LOL. It was really funny and he had to go down and take it.LOL.

A Day of Work at Usman Awang

Haziq showing respect.
Today was the first day back from school. It was really hard trying to wake up early for school, since I've been waking up late all the time during the holidays. Overall,the two weeks holiday have been very nice,fun and meaningful for me. Even though I was broke during the holidays,I still managed to go to a lot of places and do a lot of activities.

Speaking bout the holidays. Last Friday morning,I was sleeping peacefully in bed when I received a call from an unknown number. Since it was an unknown number,I didn't bother to pick up the phone. It was so early in the morning,9am,so I just left it and continued sleeping. The fele kept calling me again and again. After getting around 19 calls,I finally decided to pick up the phone.

When I picked up the phone,I heard a very familiar woman's voice.
"Hello!!hello?!! Hariz ehh?"said the woman.
I replied sleepily,"Yes. Ahh. Whozz iz?"
She said,"Harizzz,ni cikgu Suhailah la. Cikgu nak minta tolong sikit."
"La cikgu rupenye,cikgu nak ape?"I said.
"Harizzz,kamu kontraktor ade tangge dan drill? Ni,cikgu nak buat pondok ni."said Suhailah.
"buat pondok?? untuk project TK eh. Ade,bile cikgu nak?" I said in a very confused way.
"Skarang ble tak? Budak-budak ST ni sume ade kat sini tunggu."she said in a very unpatient way.
I replied,"Okay la cikgu,give me 10 minutes. Nanti saye datang."

She said thanks and hanged up the phone. I was still sleepy at that time,came down, washed my face and brushed my teeth. I didn't bath and went to look for a drill. I just took a small drill and went to take the ladder. I forgot to ask my teacher bout the length of the ladder she wanted to use. Since it was just a gazebo,I took the medium ladder and put it at the back of the truck. Then I was off to my old school. When I reached the school,I couldn't see anyone at all. I went to the TK room and met my teacher. She told me the rest was at the KH room. So I went to the KH room instead. After meeting with the rest,I went to set up the drill and work was started.

Work in progress.

Wan and Haziq making sure the flag is up and ready.

During lunch,we went to Fadhlan's house since his parents went to KL. His house is beautiful!! Arifin's mom bought all of us lunch and we all ate there. Thanks Arifin!! We were about to go back to school when it started to rain. How are we suppose to do work if its raining. We arrived in school minutes later and only a few people were left in school. Since it was raining,we couldn't do work. So what else should we do on a raining day in an empty school? We play football in the rain!!LOL. It was really fun playing in the rain. Its been a while since I last played football in the rain. It was really fun and funny at the same time. Not to mention very slippery.

Us playing in the rain. I was making a fool of myself.LOL

Me holding my phone while I play and at the same time commentating the match. Look at the way I score in the end.LOL. By the way,sorry for the all the vulgar words I used. Not for 17 and below.
