Err?
Happy 4th Month baby! Yesterday was great! lol... finally got to see you in the penguins. XD
Though technically it's like 6 1/2 months in total. Haha
Hrm... let's see... what do I blog about?
Oh, yes. To the dance ppl, sorry I couldn't come along last fri. Had lots of things on that day. Well, I hope you guys had fun.
Erm... What else?
Oh, yes, Stargate: SG-1. Damn the bosses of the Sci Fi channel! They cancelled SG-1 and have denied them the opportunity to continue the series on another tv network. Assholes! Now SG-1 is supposedly planned to turn into a series of television movies.
I say screw it! Go find another broadcaster and start filming season 11! It's just not the same when you have a tv series for 10 years suddenly stop and turn into a tv movie series. Sighs.
Well, at least Sci Fi is still airing Atlantis. Oh, I love the SG-1 and Atlantis mid-season cliffhangers. Damn nice writing... Though I have to say, it kinda sucks having to wait 6 months just to be able to watch the conclusion.
In other news, I finally got to watch Doctor Who! Well, just 1 episode, but good enough. It's funny... David Tennant still has a little Barty Crouch Jr. mannerisms. The psycho-wide-eyes, the freaky grin. Lol... It's really amusing.
Hrm, I wanna go watch more Doctor Who on youtube now. I'm hooked. XD

Weirdness is in the Air
For the 4 to 5 years that I've known Guan Peng, I've realized that we have lots in common... Which somewhat led to us creating Smasak & Legender, Rainbow Lightsaber Inc., and Oceanshadow... but I find it highly amusing that both our current gfs are sick and just plain refuse to go see the doctor.
Sighs. I thought I was stubborn... And then I met her. lol either way, i still love her so.
My dad knows about her, apparently. He's seen the both of us together loads of times - at least now I know where I got my photographic memory and ninja abilities from. But it's scary... Especially since he seems okay with it. He told me that I could go out and date her - just so long as it's not on his expense, and i practise restraint and avoid premarital sex at all cost. lol
I don't know which is more disturbing - the fact that he knows about me and her; or that he's okay with me and her.
Hrm... Weird. So almost all our parents know about us dating now. Ooooh
In other news, for the first 2 weeks of October, I'll be taking my Driving Practical lessons. Whoo! 10 days in 2 weeks. Hecticness and fun at the same time. Looking forward to it! lol
I came back about twenty minutes past midnight last night. Went to the airport with Ilyana. She, Wendy, Rika, Jasmine, and a whole lot of her friends involved in the Japanese Cultural exchange thingy were planning on seeing off the jap students before they returned to motherland Japan. We reached the airport at around nine, and waited till eleven plus. We were thinking of all funny possibilites that could explain why they were seemingly late. We were filled with utter disappointment when we left the airport, since most of us had curfews and we didn't get to see the japs.
Turns out... They had checked in and were in the passenger waiting area waaay before we arrived at the airport even. Indeed Japanese are punctual. I gotta pick up that trait from them soon.
Well, I just learnt my younger cousin is in Ngee Ann Sec. Atiqah's in Normal Acad, and also in Table Tennis. Goodness. I just hope my old teachers dont find out she's my cousin. Sighs
Well, I'm tired and should probably go off to bed now. Going to the cemetery before sunrise tmr morning, gonna take care of my grandparents' graves and read prayers for them just before the fasting month starts. I'm just slightly afraid of going to my maternal grandmom's grave before sunrise - since it's located under this thick, huge, dark tree. God protect me, please.
Okay, then, I better get going. See ya'll. Take care!
P.S. Ilyana, my angel, I love you so XDDD

Then and Now
Okay, about a week ago, I was worried about my Driving Basic Theory test. Now, I'm worried about my Final Theory that I'm gonna take on the 19th of October. Scarreh! I know many people tend to fail the Final Theory. I hope I'm not gonna be one of them.
Well, currently, the plan is for me to take up my Practical Driving Lessons while I'm still on semestral break. So, by the time Hari Raya comes, I'll be able to drive - especially when I go out with my friends, and DEFINITELY when I go out with Ilyana. lol
Hrm... Speaking of her, I just accompanied her to Kino today. But before that, I met her in TP's IT school. Things were fine at first, and then my estranged cousin, Najib, happened to be in the area. Like panic sia. I DO NOT want to be spotted by him when I'm with my dearest. He'll prolly mention it to his dear mom, who in turn, will complain to my dad. That's like the bloody perfect recipe for disaster la.
Oh, and speaking of Ilyana... I've been together with her for a total of 6 months throught our entire lifetimes thus far. Well, it's 6 months at least, but it's a long time for me. lol. I love you baby! XDDD
In other news, I finally got myself a copy of Microsoft Windows, and the Movies too. Oh, oh, oh... You guys prolly know I'm a CSI fan, well not a serious hardcore one, but reasonably fanatical enough. The other night, Saturday night to be exact, bujan came back and installed the CSI game on her laptop. Goodness. I spent the entire night/morning playing the darn thing - and I completed levels which even she couldn't heh. I stopped playing at 3.30am, and I only went to sleep at 4. lol
Of course, that made me all drowsy and giddy yesterday. I had a really bad headache due to all the insufficient sleep. Goodness. It was hell la. I'm still feeling les than 50% today. But I guess I'll survive.
Will be going over to my cousin's place later to get my copy of Adobe Photoshop from him. Oh, and guess what? I just remembered I still havent submitted the warranty card for my laptop yet. I guess I better get it done soon, huh? Goodness. Sometimes I hate my deteriorating memory.
Hrm... Recently, I've been developing this huge fascination with First-Person Shooter games. And somehow, that led me to getting hooked to Aliens Vs. Predator 2 again. Goodnessssss. Well, its either the gameplay and graphics are good, or just that I pwn the game... Or maybe both. Either way, I love playing it.
Though I wished Ilyana would join me and play the darn game with me online. Sheesh.
Anyway, I guess I'll be going now. Once maghrib starts, I'm gonna go pray and head straight to Bhai Nuruddin's place. So, till then, take care all. See ya!

Games Games Games
I am officially inclined to buy City of Villains. Yes, that's the MMORPG that requires a monthly subscription in order to play... But it's a damn nice game. Well, the game has 2 variations - City of Heroes (where, like duh, you get to create and play your own superhero); and City of Villains (you get to kickass as an uber-powerful badass).
Personally, I feel that the heroes thingy is waaay done and overrated. It'd be nice to play the bad guy in a game once and awhile.
Well, speaking of games, I'm kinda pissed coz I can't play Medieval: Total War on my new laptop. Crud! It's so fucking unfair la. Sky's laptop could run it, and he bought his a year ago... Yet mine is like so fucking brand new but it can't do shit with the game. Sighs. Oh well...
Anyway, I've been spending a lot of time with Ilyana lately. And she's somewhat developed this fascination for watching me play Hitman: Blood Money on my PS2. lol.
And like ZOMG! She finally watched a Hindustan movie with me. Like lololol
Hrm... Tomorrow's my Driving Basic Theory test at Comfort Driving School, and I'm not really sure if I'm all that ready for it. It seems a little scary for me actually. Sighs. Must study.
Well, the thing is, even if I do get to study and memorize everything in that God-damned book, I'm not even really sure how to get to the driving school. I suck.
Oh, and to the late Steve Irwin... R.I.P. You deserve at least that after your lifetime of adrenaline rushes while trying to provoke Death. I hope there are many crocodiles in the afterlife, so that you may still continue to do what you love to do... even after death. =D

My New Toy
Greetings, ladies and gentlemen.
This is Ash R. Sheikh reporting to you live from my new laptop. Yes people, I have finally bought my own lappie. What's the brand, you ask? Well, it's an LG... Silver frame with a yummy white keypad, which also comes with an integrated numeric pad (or NUM Pad, if you will).
How much? It should have been 1799 bucks initially, and maybe 1889 tops with an upgrade to 1GB RAM... But dad decided he'd rather pay 2199 bucks and get me something with a 2GB RAM instead. I got this stylish red/black optical mouse with it... which is uber-cool.
Many special thanks to my dearly beloved, R Ilyana, who went to explore Comex with me yesterday. Hugs and kisses aplenty from me to you. If it weren't for her constant "let's go see the LG section", I don't think I'd be having this wonderful machine. Heh... Love, now I can chat with you online 'till the wee hours of the morning when you're stuck with assignments. Nighttime won't be able to keep us apart then XD
And yes people, I bought my lappie from Comex. lol Mom and Dad were so mesmerized by my com to the point that they wanted to watch me set it up. O.o Amusing really. The only sucky part about this is that I don't have Microsoft Office installed here... And it's a serious pain in the ass.
Well, I used to have my own Microsoft Office XP Installer CD, but that kinda got eaten up by Bujan's former and original CD-ROM drive. After I installed Office on the home computer, the disc just fell apart into shards when I ejected it from the drive. =__=" Guess I gotta go look for my own other means of installing Office on my new toy.
On the bright side, at least I won't have to argue with Farhanah over using the computer anymore. Everyone, excluding my parents, will have their own computer, and individual means of accessing the internet. Wheeee! XD
Hrm... In other news, today I finally cooked my first dish together with Ilyana. She came over to my place today, and we kinda prepared our own 'rendition' of cold udon. And it was nice... Though that's kinda obvious considering she's a really damn good cook. So she, my younger sister, and I had lunch together while watching a Hindi movie in the comfort of my living room.
Funny really... She forgot and accidentally left her phone at my place when we left. Mom got home and got real pissed... She thought I had stolen a handphone or something. Then I told her some OTHER story about how I brought back the phone, though I did admit it was Ilyana's phone. Well, thankfully my mom is cool with me having a girlfriend.
Oh well, at least now I'll have an excuse to go see my darling tomorrow. XD It's been a long time since I went out, or even got to see her on a Saturday.
Things always happen for a reason... And if my experience serves me well, every shitty or crappy thing that happens in life is but yet another blessing in disguise.
Well, I have to go now... Lots of stuff to settle in my new computer. And just to let you all know, I'll be blogging more frequently from now on... Hrm, in fact, I'll be blogging everyday. XD
P.S. See baby! I'm keeping my promise again! XDDD
