iPad

If you didn't know, the Apple 2010 Keynote event just ended a few hours ago. I don't really want to talk much about except for one product, the Apple iPad.

To tell you the truth, I was expecting a little bit more from Apple. It looks great and all but when you really think about it, its just a huge ass iPod touch. It is able to run the same apps as the iPhone and iPod. The user interface is almost the same too. I don't know but to me it's just a big iPod.


Some apps like Facebook won't really look good with it. It's jus an enlarged and zoomed version of it as you can see from the picture.

What a disappointment :/

But anyway, the Apple iPad will still be somewhat of a cool device. Especially for reading ebooks. The maps on it are stunning. iLife on it has been redesigned, the apps like calendar and all are looking good too.

Did you realize that the spelling of iPod and iPad are just so similar. Maybe Apple had a typo error :p But seriously, iPad?! I've been hearing a lot of rumors saying that it'll be called the iSlate but why iPad. It's like Apple is trying to compete with other sanitary brands!

So yeah just a thought, I still think it's an 'okay' device. I doubt I'll be getting it anytime soon, even if it does come to Malaysia. It would be cool though, having it in my school file and playing with it in class. Prefects won't even detect it during spot checks. Tell me what you think :)

Hot choc mmm

I've been staying up late most of the nights, mostly because of homework and Facebook. So, every night around 10 I'll make myself a cup of hot chocolate. It is the bomb to drink it at night in an air cond room! You'll feel so young and happy :P

Anyway I just wanted to show you guys how to make an awesome hot choc in less than, 2 minutes!

Step One - Ingredients


Cadbury Hot Choc pack and some Hershey's (to make it a little sweeter :D)

Step 2 - Mixing


I think I need to let this out now. It looks like shit in a litter box, no?! HAHA

Step 3 - H₂O


Yep, just add some hot water. Really hot, around 85 degrees. If not you won't feel the drink go through your throat! But obviously don't drink the hot choc right after you pour in the hot water. Well that's basically heaven in 2 mins. I have to get back to school work. It's 3 in the morning.

Goodnight world, rockstar needs to study..


Oh yeah :)

My first big call?

I'm so bloody stressed right now.

The day before yesterday, my school handed out forms for our SPM subjects. The first thing that came up to my mind was like 'WTF IT'S ONLY JANUARY'. I know some of you might be thinking like, what's the big deal, you already know your subjects. Unfortunately I'm not. To make things worst, we have to send in the papers back in a couple of days.

At first I had plans to drop Biology, take up EST and Tasawwur Islam. But then after hearing stuff from here and there. I ditched Tasawwur. EST now is a huge doubt for me and I might just keep Bio. Now my mind is completely screwed up, I have no mood to do any of my unfinished homework and I have a performance tomorrow for my teachers retirement. Seriously? What the hell do you think your doing

I've asked for advice from some people, made me think, didn't really help though. Most of you would say like follow your heart, or do what you want to, or what do you want to do in life. Do you know that, this is fu****g real life! This isn't a movie. Things don't work the same way. I don't need answers like that. Look, if I was gonna follow my heart and stuff I wouldn't even ask you for advice. I need something like, a straight answer. Not some mind game. I asked Meng Leong for advice just now, I think he's the only one so far who's said 'I don't think you should drop bio, EST is easy compared to Bio, Chem and Phy' That is what I need to hear. Right or wrong, it doesn't really matter at this point.

I think this is all I wanted to say, I just needed to release some of this stress out somewhere somehow and blogging helps. Finally I can breathe and not feel like puking anymore. The guitar helps too. Oh not to forget, my wall full of pictures. It never fails to cheer me up.

School is fine I guess, except for the homework part. It's been flowing in like water. I can't keep up with it! I blame myself too since I use the comp so often but still, homework is just, too much to handle most of the times. I better start doing my homework. Anyway, thanks to the people who talked to me about the decision making. You totally saved me from

I'm out.

Are you even trying?

I am pissed . You can click to enlarge the picture above, That, my readers, is the email I sent to the Director of Liscence at JPJ. I don't want to repeat my story here again so I'll just let you have a look at the email itself.

You might say I'm over reacting but someone has to do it.

Something new

I still haven't watched Avatar yet. That sucks. Anyway I stumbled upon this earlier today, a PDF guide to learn the Na'vi language.

"Na'vi is a a constructed language spoken by the fictional indigenous race (the Na'vi) on Pandora in James Cameron's 2009 film Avatar. The language was created by Paul Frommer, a professor at USC with a doctorate in linguistics."

You can download the file here on their web. Who knew that was a real language...

School's starting tomorrow, I got my bag packed 2 days ago!

I'm gonna end this short post here because I'm in no mood to blog, thanks to school. Here's a picture that'll put a smile on anyone! Enjoy

To a new beginning

All the wasted time,
The hours that were left behind,
The answers that we'll never find,
Well they don't mean a thing tonight

Because we are finally free, tonight.


2010. Bring it on.
- Posted from my iPhone

This was me.

Today's is the second last day of 09', since I'll be at Curve tomorrow, I doubt that I can make my new years post then. So i'll just write it now.

2009. It was a great year for me. Many new experiences that I've never even thought of from running around at Curve with a trolley at 4 in the morning to cracking my iPhone. I don't know how I'd treasure all this moments with me, I'd never want to forget the things I've gone through this year. So, this is how I'll remember my 2009;

(Re-upload of better/brighter picture. Full size pic on FB)

smacked right on my wall where my study/computer table is facing. (Gaston can't do so because his parents don't allow his to have anything on his walls :p)

Okay it's not really 100% complete, maybe 80%? Those pictures took 3 cartridges of ink! You guys can drop over my place to check it out and write stuff on it if you want to!

Anyway, yeah that's the 'summary' of my year. Most of it, I selected random pictures from memorable events like my class outings, school shots, Overdose, Raya and printed them out and just paste 'em on my wall. I don't want to make this into a long wordy post because I'm not even a fan of reading long wordy posts myself.

I think i'll just share with you some random pictures of 2009, enjoy;

Sucks to be in your class btw.

Anyway, about new year resolutions.

- Good results for SPM

- Get financially better than this year

- Get serious about the music

- More friends from all over the world

- Travel more

- Getting more from blogging

- A real relationship

Well, that's about it. Nothing to elaborate, just straight to the point :)

As I said I'll be spending New Years @ Curve so if you happen to be there let's meet up, even for a short while! I haven't had the chance to meet up with some of you ever since school ended :/

Next year, will be an exciting year I guess;

- I'll be driving

- SPM (Okay not exciting)

How now, brown cow?

Your new desktop wallpaper :)

SEE YOU ALL NEXT YEAR!

Bullshit

Recently I discovered I had a problem with my Macintosh startup disk.

I was running OnyX just for the monthly maintenance and then it said that I had a problem with my startup disc. So I ran the test a couple more times and the results were always the same. I though this was cause by maybe me leaving the computer on for nearly, a month? Haha but it's not :P because Mac's rule

Anyway, I wanted to confirm the problem so I rechecked with the Mac's own Disc Utility. This came up

I don't know much about software programming and stuff but I never knew a single number can cause problems. I mean, my MacBook is running fine as usual. No crashes or any PC like behaviour :P But still, the startup disk needs to be repaired just for that reason?

I don't wanna reformat the laptop because then I'd lose a lot of valuable software. I don't think it can be repaired though but since it's not giving me any problems I think i'll just let it be? Okay maybe bad idea.

I'm a little off date

I know it's kinda late and all, but Merry Christmas to all of you :) Even though I don't celebrate it but yeah, have fun yesterday! Haha :P

Here's from me & star wars;

credits to comixed

Anyway I've been up to nothing lately, it's home everyday for me. I've got my driving lecture tomorrow. I'll try to make a post about my experience of the boring lecture! Text me if you want to tomorrow. you'll be saving me in a long run :) or not.

Aren't you curious?

So, recently I've tried using Wordpress. I guess you could say, I like it.

http://ariffsuffian.wordpress.com/

Check it out. It's simple, yet very appealing. No ads flooding the page or anything that might make the page loading slow. That'll be my random blog. For less serious shit :)

Quick Update 10

Just a quick one, I've had my 'first taste' of Form 5 when I went to collect my text books. Feels good, to be in school again. You what would be cool? If school gave us a year in school just for us to play around and have fun. Form 4.5 (credit to Sandra :p) or Form 3.5. Would be awesome.

I can barely remember anything related to Form 4 studies, especially, especially History. History is history for me? I think I'll change next year :) Change doesn't always have to be positive okay.

Well, I got a day left to party with 10$ in my wallet before my parent get back from Makkah. 1 and a half months passed by so fast:/ 3 more weeks and I'll be siting in a chair in class, living the form 5 life. Then it's SPM. Gosh, slow down time will ya?

All the time I wasted on you,

All the bullshit you put me through

I'm checking into rehab cause everything that we had

Didn't mean a thing to you

I used to be love drunk, but now I'm hungover

Love you forever, forever is over

We used to kiss all night, now it's just a barfight

So don't call me crazy

Say hello then goodbye

Double OH! Seven

Finally, I'm back to blogging. I just got caught it with so much.

On Thursday, the Form 3' s organized an event called '007; A Night To Remember' at Tropicana Golf Club. I was having doubts about going at first but then I ended up going anyway. Not only that, I decided to perform, a day before the event. So after talking to my singer(Sheryn, whom I've never talked to before haha), we decided we were all good to go. I also called up Kenzo to accompany me.

You may wonder why Nick is playing the bass guitar during our performance. The reason is, he's a rockstar. Haha :P He decided to join our performance like a minute before we went on stage!

So, they were mainly Form 3's as expected. Around 60 of em, and like, less than 10 of the Form 4's. Food was great. Didn't each much though, worried I'd puke on stage.

I don't wanna say much but overall. The party was great, better than expected. Everyone got high on orange juice. The dancing, the loud blasting music, and the strippers. Yeah, we had amature strippers. They looked so high I tell you. There were also the 'DJ Monkeys'? I think that's what they were called, some of the school student pretending to be DJ's while wearing monkey masks.

A mosh pit started :) I got wild, we (Hilman & Nick) would jump right into the mosh pit crashing into everyone. We'd also come out of it bruised and half dead. I got kicked in the stomach by some form 3 genius, he broke a button on my new vest. Great. Here's the only picture I have of my vest with all 4 buttons

We partied hard. Then me & Nick crashed at Hilman's house after the event. Bought Mc D's while on the way. Hmm nothing much. I tried making coffee, which obviously failed. I nearly puked tasting it. Hilman was stupid enough to finish it and caused him problems for the entire day, he then proceeded to eat shaving cream. We also called prank called a few people around 4 in the morning (Sophia, Marcus, Sandra, Andrea, Esther) HAHA :)

So much to say, yet so little time;

Quick Update 9

Just a short one for you Twilighters or Twilightiers. Whatever you call yourselves.


Haha, that's the way!

Anyway I just got back from futsal. Feels good to be kicking balls again. Last time that happened was during Football MSSD this year. Time for a long&relaxing bath.

Rant 1

I hate people that use the word 'Lol' too much. Its just annoying and stupid. I mean once a while you wanna laugh and can't stand it so badly I guess its fine to say 'LOL'. But seriously, why must your numb brain use it every few sentences?! Even if it doesn't relate to the topic.

Exp;

'Hey, I saw you just now at the mall' human
'lol' retard

'Our plan failed, now what?' human
'lol' retard

'What's that?' human
'lol..' retard

'What time you leaving tmrw?' human
'I don't know lol' retard

'Do you wanna go for lunch later?' human
'lol' retard

No I didn't take that from any of my conversations (or maybe I did so you'll know who you are). But can you see just how annoying it is when people use the word 'Lol' to the extreme. If you're reading this, you extreme Lol-ers, please take some time, to think about your excessive usage of the word. Same goes for some of you retards who say it out when talking, TALKING. Not typing or texting. Talking, to another human. Lawl. That's how you pronounce it I guess. Yuck.


Wow, I don't know what you guys do but. Lol.

Quick Update 8

I wanna tell you guys about Malaysian services, specifically taxi's and food delivery.

The other day, I took a cab to go to OU I think? So okay I called them, and they arrived quick, great. When I got in, the guy, looked like he was on drugs but I thought whatever right, who doesn't. So as we were on the road, he would sometimes drive without hands on the wheel. He did it a lot of times. He even had times to plug in the phone charger without looking on the road! Wtf?! Then I realized, he wasn't wearing any shoes or slippers at all. What the. Okay here comes the best part, I leaned to the side to get a better look at what he was doing. Then I found out, his right hand, has 2 fingers only, what the chicken mc nuggets?! Just his index and middle. He couldn't even hold the steering wheel properly with that hand! Anyway cabs are expensive nowadays, 3 bucks to start off the journey, 2 bucks for calling them.


Just now, I ordered Nando's. So called Peri Medic Delivery. They didn't fully 'saved' me. They 'Macha' forgot my drink, my ice lemon tea. I mean okay you old hagged guy that you forgot my drink, go bloody get it for me then. Run back and get to my place again. But no, instead u bribed me, true malaysia.

'Boss saya terlupa air awak la, ada orang order sama saya bagi dia dua air. Boss tolong saya, jangan complain. Nanti gaji saya kena potong. Boss tolong la. Boss makan dekat luar atau dalam?' shithead

'Dalam. (WTF?!)' me

'Okay boss jangan complain ya. Tolong la. Nanti habis saya.' shithead

'Yeah it's okay, ya, ya, okay bye. Ya. Okay' me

I just held the anger in, since he was Indian, I don't want him to call a gang up or anything when I complain about him. Besides, 1Malaysia right. He wasn't worth it anyway. I just had Mc D for dinner. Now i'm off to meet my relatives downstairs and get back to work!

Project 500

Project 500, sounds so, military killing spree type of thingo eh? Wrong.

Here's what I remember about the project briefing. Oh yes, before I do forget, the briefing was done in a cinema. Yes we had a whole cinema to ourselves. :p The celebrity host, was Hannah Tan. I remember her, from Ben's Bitches song, 'Amber Chia'. So the briefing wasn't that long.


Anyway, 'we' are the so called elite group of 500 Malaysians chosen to participate in this event. Currently named 'Project 500'. Its an online application to help you sort out your SNS (social network service) accounts from a single page. You can update/upload picture/comment for your twitter/facebook/myspace/flickr/hi5 and much more just from one page.

That's the basic thing. There are some other cool features like messenger. But for now it is still in Beta mode so we 'lucky' 500 malaysians are suppost to test this out and give feedback! I think its quite okay, doubt I'll use it? I don't know maybe I'll need it since i'm always on Facebook and Twitter.

I think the highlight of the briefing was when this guy asked

"What is the bandwith limit for Project 500, will streamyx be able to cope with it?"

Everyone started clapping/cheering/laughing!

Oh and thank you


Nicole for accompanying me. I swear if you hadn't come I'd be the only 16 year old! Everyone there was either married, in college or drunk.

Moving on the the private screening of New Moon. Well the private screening was cool and all, too bad I can't say the same about the movie. It was just, really bad :/ Peter Chao was right. I gotta admit that the fighting scenes were quite cool though. Thats all. One more thing, Alice Cullen, is way hotter than Bella. Eyebag-ed vampire wannabe.

'everything rots like milk' ariff suffian

You know me;

Well, Project 500 is in about 12 hours time. I'm still accompany-less, anyone? :p Haha so anyway, I watched Ninja Assassin today, it was awesome. The fighting scenes were unbelievable, but too bad the blood looked really fake :/ Oh I've also learnt that sitting next to Fenderick in a movie is a stupid move. He would just asked the darnest questions ever. During the movie he asked me

"Why that guy only using that weapon??"
"Where did he get that shirt from??"
"Why that girl never die??"
"Wah damn pro, he cannot die" (statement haha)
"Nice." (his favorite word)

Since I'm so free, I think i'll do a full explanation/summary of what Project 500 is after I get the briefing tmrw. Oh hey, I must just blog through my iPhone during the briefing!

So I had japanese food today. Yet again, Fenderick never fails to show his stupidity. When we took out the wasabi, he asked 'What's that green thing?' and everything went silent. I slammed my head on the glass window next to me, seriously I did. Oh and btw, did you know that Chinese green tea, and dirty aquarium water look alike. I guess it tastes alike too, bitter. Mhm, Unagi?

I'll end this post now, its 2 a.m.

Well I was wrong

November's about to end. December is gonna be a busy month, parents coming back, outings, performances, birthdays&parties and other events. I guess you could say that I'm looking forward to it. I've been spending a lot of time in front of the computer as usual, waiting for something to happen. Not really, fun you know. Everyday it mostly the same ol' same ol'. I need things to be different


I wan't to perform more often. It's just a really great feeling to be on stage, yeah I still am nervous most of the times but it all goes away when the music starts playing. That reminds me, this month, is my last month in Yamaha Music School. Yes, most of my performances were organized by Yamaha. I gotta thank them I guess for the exposure. My first performance with them was in a guitar ensemble playing 'Oye como va'. Haha good times, from an ensemble to a band. Been through a lot, and yes I'm quite aware that I maybe the laziest Yamaha student there is, I can't even memorize chords for a performance so I make then into a small piece of paper and stick them onto the guitar


I don't think I take life that seriously. Laughter isn't the best medicine but it does feel good, till a point where you feel like dying from too much laughing. I think this year has been the craziest for me. I mean, the feelings, the things I've done&gone through, the pressure and such stuff. I'd never expect myself to walk to 1u at 2 a.m. in the morning with Kem and groupies. I'd never expect to break out of his house. I never knew Gaston existed before. I've always known that Sean was annoying though. I've made a lot of new friends this year, from school, parties, performances and so on. Yeah, I guess this year is a major leap forward towards life.


Woah super emo post. Well that's why I have my fatty fat friend Fenderick Lee to chat with on skype and to spam our friends Facebook walls. Anyway I'm gonna continue staring at the computer screen and wait for something to happen. Feel free to mock me over this post online/Fb/skype/sms/ping/email.

Quick Update 7

So recently I participated in this 'interview' for Project 500. I wasn't expecting it but, I


got chosen. It sounds exciting, some media project. Well I hope there will be more cool&free stuff like the New Moon private screening! They're somehow keeping this project a 'secret'. Typical drama haha. Looks like i've gotta get my butt to the briefing and uncover this 'hopefully super cool' project. Hey, its gonna be host by a 'secret' celebrity! Malaysian I guess haha. Whatever, keep the freebies coming!
