figure out a title for this one

limkokwing, anyone? haha.

lagenda is totally kicked out at its ass. it's fcknglegendary now.

anyway.

mom as we were in the dapur, "tau tak.., mrsm mane yg pmr die paling hebat tahun ni"
knowing her rhythmic cynical words, i replied, without hesitation, "pasir salak,"
"ha, kan? tu laaa"

i didn't remember what i replied actually. but i'm pretty sure that i was exhausted with this pathetic and annoying side of reality. i mean, it was my choice, my decision to not be a budak asrama, an mrsm student, a studyfreako, or whatever, though i have the very chance to do so. i didn't regret it, but the second people brag and snort about it makes me want to puke badly (at them, especially). definitely, i don't know what will happen if i go to pasir salak and study there, probably taking haziq together with me and joining aizat and dzarief. one sure thing is, we'll never study lk and we'll become a bio student. a bio student *echo*. the good is, i'll get the chance to play rugby. but that's not about it lah kan.

i just love it when people respect me, or at least my decisions, the way they (or/and their decisions) want to be respected. everybody deserves that.

just printed a copy of the gambar gathering (the pic is similar to the one below but much much, er, kind of a better portrait) at the mall. 8R sized, RM10. but i didn't like what the kedai did with the printing. they actually cropped the picture. so, EK. reject. searching for another kedai to make 28 copies of the picture so every each of the peeps in the pic can simpan the gambar. any good suggestions of good kedai gambar, people?

off to bengkel teori 3 jam tomorrow. selamat!

(currently thinking for a way to post useful posts in the future)

Ellow syukri.. Amir (5stm2004) here.. I've been reading your blog for quite some time, i like your style of writing & also your artsy pics... heheh.. Anyways, i think i've dropped comments once or twice in the past, but i just have to comment on this one....

It's about the asrama crap lah.. There's a common misconception that most malaysians still fail to realize.. Why do boarding schools get better results?? It's bcoz the students in there have been selected in the first place.. Only the ones who score get to go in, so more often than not they'll naturally continue to score lah kan... Try put the same bunch of people in smks9... results smks9 hebat la jugak... hmphh...

I took the same path as you did... I chose not to go to boarding school even though the offers were there.. Ambik LK and whatnots.. Trust me, it's the best decision that i've made in my entire life!! Form 4 & 5 in SMKS9 were the most enriching years for me.. bcoz i got to know more different types of people (the ones that i didn't really mix with time form 1-3) and it's made me appreciate life a whole lot more...

After SMKS9 i went into INTEC, a place full of budak2 asrama.. Semangat asrama diorang memang jangan challenge arh (well, not all... but majority)...like you said, it makes u wanna puke.. It's as though sekolah harian kids are 2nd class citizens or sumthin... i don't mean to brag or anything, but most of the ones from sekolah harian ended up doing better.. different people have different styles of learning, so it's pointless lah kan to force someone who's not interested to go into boarding school to masuk jugak.

What I'm trying to say here is basically you know what you want to do, and you know what's best for you.. You don't regret your decision, and i respect you for that! My batch dulu x ramai yg stay kat s9.. I think batch 5 & 6 lagi ramai.. So it's good lah if you all can prove that it's not where you study that matters, but it's the HOW that matters..

Keep up with the nice postings, and good luck with whatever you're gonna venture into.. out!

haha thanks for bothering to read all the craps amir. rlly rlly flattered to hv you reading them. if they're at any cost readable that is. :D

anyways, i did hope that i took the right path, and after all the bumps and flats, rasenye i was right after all! but what is life if it's smooth je all the way kan. either road has it own so-called challenges, so its up to us to face it lah.

most of my asrama buds doesn't have that much of asrama spirit kot. i mean, they still care to join in doing stuffs. but still, as if unavoidable, there are some that at many times giving me a big pain in the neck with the boastful stuffs and all. and as you know it, makes me want to puke at the wrong place.

tapi no regrets lah. all my ste friends yg dpt asrama either tolak their offers or came back to 9 after going to the asrama. includes atikah haziq and all that. hehe. past is past je lah, basically. it's cuti anyway (for us) so why worry?

can i put you up in my links? haha.
see ya amir! :D
