Lightning 22: Sightseeing In the Middle of Waiting

After the last exam, just before everyone in Lightning would like to shout "FREEDOM!!". But na'ah, not yet! there is still a test awaits; an IQ test. But lots of Lightning is not interested to do it and straightly went home. You can call them lazy, tired, or ungenerous, but I think they just don't like IQ test. They afraid it will reveal who they really are (ahaha, kidding).

After the test, everybody had a wonderful lunch treat. Since the test was started earlier than promised time, many latecomers (you can't call them latecomers because they were coming right on time)... ermm, many "rightcomers" miss the exam. But look at the bright side, they got free lunch! Who said '"there is no free lunch"? I said, there are always "free lunch" in Lightning, literally (like right now) and sarcastically (like the time when we're finishing math tutorials; free lunch copying).

During the lunch, we were all busy planning the leisure activities for this free time. I don't refer to The Leisure Planmaker to plan for this precious time off because his plan all the time related to futsal. I plan with The Scandal Boy instead, a plan which he calls 'Bachelor Party'. ('Bachelor Party' is more like The Scandal Boy's special event. You know, like Azwan Ali's Cit Cat Party)

The lunch end at 12.00 at noon. Many had gone home. I just right want to have a ride home with my dear roommate, The Play Bojoy, but unfortunately he had decided to lounge around at The Card Pusher's place. So I have to find another transporter, but that is the fun about being me. I have self-proclaim myself with another title- The Passenger (its not my Lightning Conversion, just for fun). I enjoy myself searching for transporter. The Transporter got his name because I've always ride with him some time ago. He is undoubtedly my best transporter ever (he'd never bring up fuel issues until I started first). But I already lost him that time, but The Scandal Boy then offers me to join his ride with an unexpected transporter- The Middle Man, and now the main story is just began.

How come The Middle Man could transport me and The Scandal Boy at the same time with his WLE motorcycle? The answer is, he brings his mom car (I forgot its plat number). The Scandal Boy and The Middle Man have a meeting of some project at 2.00 in the evening. Instead of waiting at the fac, they want to go for a ride around the city. Well, it really sounds fun, so I'm in. Our first trip is to a bookshop at Section 15 where I and The Middle Man buy Kreko mags. After that, all of us have no idea where to go.

Then I've come with some suggestion. I ask The Middle Man if he could bring me to the 'Old Timer Kopi' coffee house to solve its mystery. I remember that The Fallen Genius said he wants to capture the picture of The Old Timer at that coffee house, and found out that the shop had already moved. I said to The Middle Man, I want to go there to see if it is really had moved away. He's on. Then we go to our second destination- Old Timer Kopi.



This picture proved that The Fallen Genius was wrong (or he was a liar). The shop are still standing there, proudly. We stopped there and take some pictorial proof. We enjoyed the moment there, before we go to Al-Hasanah Mosque to take our Zohor prayer. After that, again, all of us don't have any idea where to go.

Then I suggest to The Middle Man, "Let's go to University of Tenaga Nasional."

"But I don't know how to get there!"

"I'll show the way."

"Let's go~"

Both of them doesn't know my true intention. For them, it's just a sightseeing. But for me, it means something even more. Well, what's happen at our third destination? Well... let say we didn't do much together there. The Middle Man and The Scandal Boy are busy discussing something about The Shards under a shady tree, while I'm with my own personal journey inside Uniten Mosque. We waste most of our time there and the next thing we do is The Middle Man sent me back to my college and he with The Scandal Boy proceed to the fac for the meeting.

Lightning 21: Gaming Major Students

The night before the last final exam, I went to the fac with The Lightning Senior (seems like a pretty odd combination, huh). I thought, since the exam tomorrow will be early in the morning, no Lightnings want to come to the fac and rather studying at their room. That's why I came to the fac with The Lightning Senior in the first place (guess I still have an explanation for this odd combination, haha). But, fortunately, there were many Lightnings came that night. They are

The Comedy Collector
The Fast Rider
The Fallen Genius
The Old Timer
The Play Bojoy
The Card Pusher
The Transporter
The Dirty Mocker
and the very (mythic) rare attendees...

The Steady Student!! (clap, clap, clap)

Everybody whos came that night came to find one explanation, one solution and only one answer is more than enough for the question; How to do Conformal Mapping in Complex Analysis Mathematics?

Yes, thats why even the math experts (at least in Lightning) like The Card Pusher and The Steady Student  also came that night. They also don't know how to move their pen on the paper when the question that left is only the Conformal Mapping question. If it was me, I maybe will draw something on the question paper while thinking about my future. But they are not dumb (or creative) enough to do so.

After about 2 hours studying, suddenly, I don't know who started it but they all now busy discussing about something else; about games. The game that they were talked about is DotA (Defense of the Ancients). Some members of the "diverged conference" are The Play Bojoy, The Fallen Genius, The Dirty Mocker and The Steady Student. Maybe The Play Bojoy is the one who started it. I also joined them for a while (because that time I think I have done much and want to have a break).

That time, we were really don't look like engineering major students that have an examination tomorrow morning at 8.30 o'clock, but more like a gaming major students that have a professional gaming tournament tomorrow. Urghh, thats pretty rough from me. But after tomorrow examination, some of us really having a professional tournament.

Oh, before I forgot, The Fallen Hat-Trick also came that night, with the same intention like the others; finding the solution for Conformal Mapping question. But he went home early, because no one is really focusing on that purpose.

Is there anyone who knows how to do a Conformal Mapping question after coming that night? No, I don't think so!

Lightning Special: Why "Shards of Lightning"?

Many people ask me, why I named the girls group as The Shards of Lightning, instead of just Lightning Gurlz or anything like that.This time I'm not going to say "Because I said so!". I have prepared three answers; personal answer, artistic answer, reasonable answer. You need to be prepared to know it.

Personal answer:
Just to make a difference. I love to do what people think I'm not gonna do. The name "Shards of Lightning" is unexpected. When first I published the "Lightning Boyz" name-frame, I assumed everyone will expecting the next name-frame will be "Lightning Gurlz" or "Lightning Beauties" (urghh.. its killing me). The name "Shards of Lightning" came in my whim since I've decided to draw them. At the beginning, I don't want to publish it, but why I publish it anyway? To next anwer.

Artistic answer:
The second reason is because I think, it is kind of artistic. If you are watching Naruto (I know they are lot in Boyz who watch it), the technique use by Kakashi and Sasuke used to be the same (Chidori), but Kakashi renamed it "Raikiri" after the incident where he cuts the lightning (not our Lightning) by using it. Yeah, there is a history behind the "Shards of Lightning" name. What it is? Next answer.

Reasonable Answer:
This is where I will answer all questions above. Why I published it even though I don't want to do so? Why "Shards of Lightning"? It is because... they used to be one at the beginning. When they break into several groups, they becomes shards. This maybe just inside my mind, and not necessarily true.


Five Lines of Five Shards



The Boyz always do things together, unless some of us have excuses and cannot join. But sometimes when the Shards intervened, the Boyz have to be separated (it happened to me once, and it hurts me very much). Like a shard that usually sharp, it splits anything it touch. That is the reason why I don't want to publish it (but I still want to draw it), because a real artist can't resist expressing their feelings toward their artworks. But not everyone in the Shards is like that.

The fact is, it is the reality of this world. Boys can't forever always be with boys, and so do girls. One day, we all will be separated to follow our own paths. We will have our own family and cannot always hang out even with our best friends. The important thing is to believe that the friendship will always live in our memory, even though we are no longer together.

Lightning 20: What A Great Evil Plan

Since before the exam, I saw someone is addicted to something. The person is not The Card Addict (or The Card Pusher, whatever) and the stuff the person was addicted to is not cards. He is the one who like to plan any leisure activities for Lightning, yes, he is... The Leisure Planmaker, yeah! (clap, clap!)

To what he addicted to? Of course, cigarette (such typical boys). The Lightning Boyz who I know they are smoking are The Fallen Genius, The Sex Dude, The Dirty Mocker, The Sly Sportsman and The Leisure Planmaker. The non-hardcore smoker that I know are The Comedy Collector, The Fast Rider and OH MY GOD!!... THE LAUGHING STOCK?? (This is my reaction when I first know about this)

SMOKERS (HARDCORE & NON-HARDCORE)











And the rest are the 'good boy'. I don't know if there is any smoker in the Shards. If there is, I'm sure they were just passive smoker (people who inhale smoke from others) by having a smoking family members, friends or boyfriend.

GOOD BOYS

















Why this post title is "What A Great Evil Plan"? I'm not done yet with The Leisure Planmaker! Well, since he'd became so addicted to smoking, lately he invited any Boyz member he approach to have some puff (not curry puff, idiot) with him. The funny thing is, some of the people he invited are non-smoker. I am also one of his desired invitees (Werghh~). Some Boyz said, he used to be a new smoker, but the nicotine poisoning had arose his addiction, making him more hardcore than any other veteran smoker. His plan to make others addicted too is evil, isn't it? Yes, it is evil. No, it isn't. SHUT UP, IT IS!!

Lightning 19: Love Dude's Free Lecture

I have to admit it. The Love Dude is a flirt master. But why should he shows his pervertness publicly. One day, I don't know, we were studying together in a group of six(maybe); me, The Love Dude, The Card Addict, The Old Timer, The Leisure Planmaker and The Middle Man.(maybe there are more, that's why I said 'maybe')

On that gathering, I don't remember how it is started, but our study topic suddenly changed into "In Marital Problem Discussion"(guess that is a polite way to say it). I think someone in the group has made a dirty joke and somebody else had argue about the fact in that joke seriously. And now, there it is... study group has become a group of perverts!

The "new forum" has been conducted by our professional panel member, the one and only, The Love Dude!(clap,clap) He explained in detail each of the "problem" with the aid of actions if he feels like to.

Yeah, I know, some of the fact in that topic is important for our future life, but I can't stand talk about it. Even if he were serious, I still take it as a joke(a dirty one).

Talk about pervertness, The Sentimental Soldier (who I never mentioned in the previous posts) has disgusted some of us (especially The Shards) with his 'boxer obsession'! Since we haven't seen any Lightning Conversion lately...

The Sentimental Soldier has been converted to The Sicko Soldier.











And thanks to your advices, bro. I'm sure I will not forget it. And now, I want you to remember this

The Love Dude has been converted to The Sex Dude.

Lightning 18: Super Dirty Prank

Prank is fun. Yeah, really. As long as you're not the victim. Recently, this blog has been sabotaged by one of our fellow Lightning (I guess, because there weren't many outsiders that watch this blog). He (hardly to believe it was 'she') posted the link in the message box at the side of this blog. If it was just a link that will suddenly display a picture of ghost screaming, maybe I will just let it there. (why remove something fun, isn't it?) But believe me, it is an unforgivable prank.

The link looks like a normal blogspot link, but right after you click it, it is too late (Noo~). Your window size will be reduced and you will be forced to watch a gruesome (or maybe interesting to some sicko people) video. You hardly can close the window because it will keep moving when you're trying to reach the 'close' button. The only way (I ever and never tried again) to stop it is by using the Task Manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del). The Card Pusher and many other were also used the same method as me to get rid of it. Because of this link stuff, I had turned off the 'link' function on the message board.

(The url address is still there, if you're insisting to see it, go on. Its none of my business)

The question is, who put it on this blog? The Card Pusher said, he got it from The Fallen Genius (yes, he was that kind of man). So, I accused him and promise to seek revenge. When I asked him (The Fallen Genius), he admitted that he was the one who spread it to all Lightnings, but he denied posting it on this blog. I believed him (I still have a little faith on him though).

So I ask other Lightning Boyz; The Fast Rider, The Love Dude, The Leisure Planmaker. Most of them said, they got it from The Dirty Mocker (and some of them also got from The Fallen Genius). Now I'm starting to think that it was The Dirty Mocker work. He always seems like liking this kind of "dirty" stuff.

When I met The Dirty Mocker lately, I accused him. This time, he denied it and swears he never watched this blog. Ooh~ my, now who can be my suspect? I've already lost the trace for the guilty. Anyway, I don't care about it anymore. I hope one day he'll reveal himself so that I can distrust him forever.
