THe surprise that didn't happen.

2011-07-16T10:32:00.002+02:00

15.7.1995. A day where he was born to this planet we call it Earth, now it's 2011, he's just turned 16 yesterday. An age where you could say it's sweet but not salty anymore. As part of the otomans we always make birthdays more special, more sincere and of course to make them happy.

But as it turned out, it was a turn of events, we didn't do what we're suppose to do, we forgot. It's a sad event, we made out brother sad, looking and hearing sad is not the best sight that I or Afi would ever want to spectate. As for now we couldn't make him happy, it have passed. And I nor Afi couldn't change back time.

What we can say no is, Happy BIrthday to our special brother, weill always love and remember you until the day we die. OTOMANS forever, to infinity and beyond.

Fine morning

(picture taken long time ago during Afiq's solo adventure on his magic longboard)

Purify the colors, purify my mind.
Purify the colors, purify my mind,
And spread the ashes of the colors
Over this heart of mine!

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

From the statement above we could conclude that waking up early in the morning, having your breakfast with your family is one of the best things to do, not to sleep long hours without realizing what the time is.

As explained earlier, we don't sleep normally now a days, our usual sleeping time is 5.30 AM, amazing isn't it? Then we wake up at around 12.00 AM- 1.00 PM, not a good life schedule, but that's us, don't try to copy this, we're trained professional. We do it for a reason, it's to make this world a better place to live in.

It's obvious that this post is a continuation or perhaps a sequel to the previous post, it's to encourage people to get out, especially us. We do get out, if that's what your asking, we get out at night, people might see us in the day that's why we wear dark clothes in the night so that people won't see us, ninja style. People would think this activity is unhealthy, but it is true, it's not healthy at all. It's peaceful to have a night or a morning stroll, that's our excuse(reason). The afternoon is just to hot, the evening is just too hectic and the night are plain cramp, too much pollution produced during those times as to compared to the times that were mention.

No cars, Less humans, Not much Pollutions that's life for you, a quite relax life. A morning stroll.

Catching some sweat.

Dear Prudence
Won't you come out to play ?
Dear Prudence
Greet the brand new day
The sun is up, the sky is blue
It's beautiful and so are you

Dear Prudence, won't you come out to play ?

The Beatles- Dear Prudence- The White Album

A very direct meaning to this song, explicitly obvious as one can say. Staying indoors fer too long ain't good fer yer young health, go outside and catch sum' of em' fresh air, catch some sweat will ya? Yer stenching up the place with yer cold sweat in this house. Some sun would do good.

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..... if yyer stuck in that stench hole why don't ya go dance in front of that flat box? Got good music in it.

( Hard to imitate some good old slang )

It's summer for most of countries, and it's already been a month, not achieving anything yet?
Yeah, hard to do anything when you have so many freetime, even helping your parents isn't enough, we just need to do something awesome before school, work, college comes along and ruins it. Summer job is good, but no, it's time consuming, we need to do something to such extent it could evolve us, we need to the awesomest thing in the world and show the world what we got.

Everything is impossible, nothing is possible. That's a fact and you have to live with it, but that everything is already been done and we've spectate it everyday in every second we live, so what's wrong with the impossible trick for a skateboards???

There are things that we humans must try to do, more and more and more, it's boring but somehow fun, falling, injuring yourself, embarrass yourself in front of people, that's how we become better, throught laughter and joy and an overwhelming stress. harrr harrr harrr

Never give up, to infinity and beyond

A grouping: day 27 - day 30... (explanation)

2010-07-27T15:15:00.002+03:00

You take your time
Tick tick tick time
You take it
Lets have a look
Tick tick tick time
Tick tick tick tick
Time you take it
Time you take it

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Tick

EXPLANATION:

If it was explained before, then this explanation would be more thorough compared to the other one. Reason for doing day to day blogging is to remind us on what we did that day, once we are reminded for what we have done or what we haven't, we promised for the better tomorrow. As we promised more, nothing seems to be happening. This is life, and certainly a dull, stagnant and a normal pedestrian life.

We advice people whom are working or at school or doing something, cherish it, treasure it, it's really good when your doing something rather than nothing, correct?
It feels good to be shouted at when your doing nothing, since you are reminded, and take that as an advice not a result of anger.

Time doesn't wait for anyone, it flies as we're waiting, it goes by, when we're sleeping, it walks slowly when we're talking about stupid things, it teases us, when we're doing nothing.

Slap that stupid time, time is only a number, fight it and you will be ahead of it, do something, anything.
Do nothing, but something. Confusing yes??
At least you read it to this pointm which makes you the smartest man around, at least for now.

The Days :
(doing this is not very productive either, it's really boring, more or less like a diary, and diary supposed to be private, we'll try to keep this short as possible)

Day 27

People were invited to come to our house

Day 28 - 29

Nothing, just chilling and relaxing, doing the usual stuff.

Day 30

A quick stroll and a walk by to a close art shop, at 5 AM in the morning. Whilst watching Afiq falls down dramatically from his longboard so many times. Classic.

Asri, scalling his teeth, clean.

That is all for 3 days.... will continue doing this, but with new things of course.....

Day 26...

2010-07-24T18:23:00.003+03:00

Today at 5 am we take the schlongboard for a test ride, by pushing long distance. So afiq using the schlongboard while I (Afi) use my slalom board, we push our board 10km today in 1 hour with all kind of terrain smooth road to an unfinished road. The verdict, its fast, pumpable and low.

After 2 years ( I think) wearing braces Asri finally got his braces took out but he still have to wear retainer, hohoho.

Day 25...

2010-07-20T19:24:00.005+03:00

What a boring day today ~sigh~
We started to pack up our stuff for moving, for today we only packed some of our books and our clothes

p/s : most likely all the post will this short most of the summer post

Day 24...

2010-07-19T01:37:00.005+03:00

Today we just receive our skateboard deck. With out any hesitation we quickly drill hole at the the nose and the kicktail, this is what we called a shlongboard.
Since this board is low to the ground its capable of a little bit dancing, DH and long distance pumping/pushing, so this board will be mainly use by Afiq and maybe Asri. They have decided to call this board "Le Che".

written by afi

Day 23....

2010-07-18T21:16:00.004+03:00

Today we just order a skateboard deck, because yesterday we decided to make a shlongboard which is a short longboard( im going to explain what is a shlongboard in a new post).
The reason we want to make a shlongboard because we never own one before, Asri and Afiq doesnt have any board, most of board is unusable and we dont have tools to make a new longboard.

I also make some new sketches for my new artwork, which is about how corrupted education right now, meaning how most of the school is about business and how people with higher status and much more intelligence get a proper education, thats is the idea for now im still trying to expand it to make it easier to fine an idea.

Here some picture of my sketches.

day 22....

2010-07-16T15:35:00.005+03:00

it has been 22 days since the start of our boring and hot summer holiday, from my point of view we havent achieve anything yet but we will, but the other members of the OTOMANs think they achieve something.
To inform people who is reading our blog this will be our last summer in our life possibly and in Egypt, because in Malaysia we dont have any seasons, the status is we dont know when do we leave Egypt, so we wait its very torturing for us.

we also waiting our IGSCE, AS and A2 result

Since the start of the summer holiday on average we sleep 5.30 am everyday and wake up at 12.45 pm, dont ask us what are we doing stayin up really late, but still sometimes its not enough sleep so we continue sleeping in the evening.

p/s : were really bored

15 = 15 July 2010 - 15 July 1995 simple math...

2010-07-15T00:19:00.003+03:00

The Speed's working, I see it in everyone,

Your eyes are ready for takeoff
Melt in your head,
What a beautiful state
We're in

Happy Birthday to you

I like the peace
in the backseat,
I don't have to drive,
I don't have to speak,
I can watch the country side,
and I can fall asleep.

Arcade Fire- In the backseat

United we stand, divided we fall. It always hurts when a person falls especially when they're big, and the best thing when someone falls is it's funny, it's not funny when you fall. So what the hay, laugh and the pain will certainly go away.

The best thing in life is to over analyze life itself, you confuse yourself too much you end up thinking about other stuff, it's funny when you track it back, and you laugh to yourself. Then you'll try to make a story from the things that you analyzed, for example a book.

THE BOOK

Now, this is a story of a book, called the book. This book, is no ordinary book, it's not a book to read, or to see, it's more of a book to think about when you're alone in the toilet, sitting and doing your business. This book cost for only about 10 dollars, which is not quite expensive comparatively speaking to what you possessed now, but this book is a limited edition book, a really limited book, only 5 in this wide world, and 1 in each continents. This book contains 500 black pages with white ink, glow in the dark, with pictures in each pages, word carved.

This is no ordinary book.

The titles of this book is BOOK, it was legally made in Antarctica by using laminated ice, it takes 1 day to make this whole book, so it's really easy to do. The best thing about this book is the content, the content contains your thoughts, so as you hold the book and flip the first page, you'll be surprised that your face is on it, and as you flip more, it moves, and if you go to Asia, it comes with stick man moving below the page which is amazing, you can see it in youtube if you're interested.

to be continue....

The PENCIL

Black and yellow striped pencil, sharp pointed tip, enables it to be our number one weapon, besides our body, the pencil's population is more than that of a bullets. The army never thought of using a sharpen pencil as a weapon instead of bullets, which cost more. If some trained ever get hold of a pencil, it could easily stab a person's fat belly and slice it into half, that's how deadly it is.

However, as deadly it could gets, it also have it's own personal nemesis, ERASER. Eraser are also deadly if you manage to throw them at a specific speed which could pierce through a human's skull, and this Eraser could erase all the pencil's writing, which frustrated pencil because of the effort the pencil put into.

As good as it can get, Eraser can also erase all the pencil's past, the bloody past, in which pencil regrets.

to be continue....

Both stories above, purely is boring, no need to read it, you can make stories like that anytime you want, it only depends on your creativity, and it will take you to lots of places if you have a super imaginative power, you can see the world more if you have it. Try not to over analyze things, since you might get things wrong if you do.

THE Title.

Separation, the best solution to all things is, "Hey, why don't we share?" ....
But if you just hate that certain person because of hist unedifying attitude towards you, that person deserves to be hated, all you need to do is punch.

And that will cause a short story to be longer.

Save The WOrld?? Maybe

2010-07-10T02:55:00.004+03:00

Oh so all my loving goes
Under the fog fog fog
And I will leave them all
Well I'm just a poor little baby
'Cause well I believe them all

yeah yeah yeahs- Y control

Been a long time since the last time, as time passes, we don't realize, the reality is such a pity. The world is somehow a big pile of expensive food, that nobody seems to care about. The problem here that we have in ourselves are self realization, by which we mean, we don't realize it and because of this we don't take actions thus making us living in a world of fantasy not reality.

Enough of ranting, it's time for the main subject, DON'T DO ANYTHING THE BOX TELLS YOU TO DO, it's all lies, DON'T RECYCLE, understand? People don't do it anyway, so who cares right? Just throw glass in paper, they won't realize it, and they have machines to divide things, so just do it. Point well said.

NO! Say no to strangers! Please recycle it's a good thing to do, but not only the thrashes, what about your clothes that you haven't wear since 10 years ago? Or your chair in which you already have 10 in the living room? Things like this, that we don't normally use quite often, doesn't it makes you wonder? Why did I buy this? It sure is good to waste your money isn't it? It feels like releasing ten days of hellish constipation doesn't it? Feels good. Having said that, well, don't think of that, just do what needs to be done, donate it. Or maybe give it to the neighbours living beside you who awkwardly seems to be lacking in chair, or probably donate it to the jumping chair children who just constantly breaks chairs, good idea eh?

Sure is troublesome to save the WOOld, it's weird that everyday we tend not to save the world by using cars and offers it to more traffic lames, even with oil price increasing which is proportion to the dire increasing of stress, we still do it don't we? We sure are smart human beings, look train beside you! Dude look at that long bus, isn't it awesome? And you're in a car, smart.

Other than ranting, there's something that need to be said here that haven't been said yet.

LOVE

Everybody loves Everybody....

That is all... thank you for getting annoyed... love you all

another Post Bout' Longboard.

2010-05-13T23:58:00.002+03:00

This how it started, we have a new member in our team, it use to be only Afi and Afiq, now we have a third member, Asri. It's a happy day for the three of us, nothing better than hanging out and chilling with your own brothers and sisters right???

Three weeks ago, Asri joined in the crew, we know mentioning this is a bit late, but that's that, we informed it. This is how it's going to be for the three of us:

Afi: Pump, Slalom, Speed, Dance(a bit), Slide, Style, Cruise/Carve
Afiq: Pump, Slalom(a bit), Speed, Slide(still learning), Style, Cruise/Carve, Power pusher
Asri: Pump(learning), Speed(not yet), Dance, Slide

That's how it is, we don't have much years of experience on a longboard, and never seen a real longboard before, but we sure are good at this, even though it is dangerous, we'll the get hang of it sooner or later, sooner.

Three times a week, 2 or more hours spent on the hot, dirty, dangerous, hard, soft, tarmac road, practicing and just chilling, releasing the daily stress, feeling the freedom of the wind that drives us. Helmets were not worn, reason, simply because we don't have any, relying on fear and the smallest experience we have, avoiding injuries are made possible and are necessary.

Foot breaks, wind breaks, slides are the best way to stop, teaching Asri this is hard, it always has been a problem, nervous, timing and of course lack of courage. It's a no problem, bailing out of the board is an okay move, but without wearing the correct gear it could be a problem in the future, so foot breaks are necessary, and teaching is of course hard and tiring. Walking uphill, then downhill, doing the same thing over and over again, are just plain exhausting. Sacrifice is needed, what can we do??

Most of all, it sure is fun, having fun together.

videos will be posted later....

Random Afternoon (one shot story)

2010-04-14T13:10:00.000+02:00

it's. oh. so quiet
it'a oh. so still
you're all alone
and so peaceful until...
(Bjork-It's oh so quiet)

Charging, loading, listening, thinking and possibly sitting on a chair with the screen in front, typing.
1.13 PM nothing to do, looking at my brother also in front of the screen, thinking about my brothers and sister who are outside the room also in front of the screen. Thinking about it, and looking at myself, also in front of a screen.

Nothing productive, yet nothing is wasted, most of them at this time has not yet taken their shower, time will tell, time will tell. Room is still messy, what can we do, we're busy people.

So the story continues, it's 3 AM in the morning everyone were sleeping on their beds, sleeping, sleeping, sleeping and just sleeping. Nobody knows for sure what they're dreaming, just themselves.

The story continues, 1.20 PM now, 7 minutes has passed, still nothing productive happened in those period.

A new Morning

2010-04-14T12:45:00.002+02:00

4 months has gone by, a really fast year this one will be, for lots of things has happen already to us and to many of people. A busy one we can say, hectic and cramped with work, activities and social life, there's nothing we can do with it, just to go with the flow and stop complaining about life.

Another thing in particular is, the activities we made during the lapse is unimaginable so we might suggest you guys to go to the link provided below :

http://onemilegrads.blogspot.com/

It is our dad's, and in it lists all of our missing activities in this blog.
After saying this, we will try our best to continue and try to replace the loss, we have made.

Till we meet again.

Good morning, Good Afternoon, Good Evening and Good night.

11.12.64 the day a man was born

2009-12-10T20:11:00.005+02:00

In remembrance, of the date which is tomorrow, it is with our compliment to write this.

If it satisfy some of people's curiosity tomorrow is our dad's 45th birthday, looking at what he have done for us this is the least thing we can do to pay the debt and to prove gratitude.

45 is considerably young, especially with his dashing, good looking, muscly body and still going active in so many ways, because of this 45 is still young. He is also a father of 5, which could be for some stressful and for some joy, but to be honest it's both in his case. We blame ourself for this, yet we still repeat it, mainly because we are still "children" at hearts. Because of the things we've done, he automatically will shout at us, who won't??? Even mad people will shout at us for doing things that are considered wrong and that have been proven. It is quite stressful to get shout at, it's annoying to get shout at every time, and it's irritating, but though this we still love him, for what he is, a good father.

To be a good father doesn't mean you let the kids do anything they want and rampage, restriction is needed, and he have in so many ways successfully done it. To be a good father also means to set a positive example to the kids, and he have done it. He could almost do anything, anything, anything that is possible to human mind, this is mainly because of his hard work and enthusiasm to do so and is this not a good example???

Because of his hard work, he have a well-good job in Egypt, because of his job we experience another life in another country, a one time experience one could say. Because of his hard work he is able to provide his family with shelter, food and a good education. This is all made possible because of his hard work.

What we can do now is, to wish him a healthy life free from all diseases, live long and a good happy birthday song. Sing it with me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the man himself

DIce stacKING

2009-11-18T09:01:00.003+02:00

its a skill, dice staking is a skill that you stack a dice using only a cup.
Doing dice stacking is easy, scoop the dice then start making an arc like movement to apply the centripetal force and inertia to the dice(do this for the other dice to)

If you don't believe what i telling you then here some video

here is the video of me doing it(still not good)....

here's how pro do it...

want to see what happen to the dice in the cup? Then here the slow-motion video...

and lastly the tutorial, although this is not that good but it help to learn...

P/s: the person who is editing this post is a second language speaker so he suck at English

A way to explain in which no one understand.

2009-10-15T17:40:00.003+02:00

yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nothing to say, but jumpin about 120- 140 like that is really cool, that's high, real high(for a short person)...

CARD STACKING!!!

2009-10-09T22:17:00.007+02:00

what i mean is making a house of card it is a skill of stacking a card to turn into a house a tower or something structural.

in wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_cards its say that
"A house of cards (also known as a card tower) is a structure created by stacking playing card on top of each other. House of cards is also an expression for a structure or argument built on a shaky foundation or one that will collapse if a necessary (but possibly overlooked or unappreciated) element is removed."

the reason I want to do house of card is because its for my new artwork about memory
see here is it my accomplishment

the OTOMANs tower

Only FOR the STRONG

2009-08-01T11:15:00.002+03:00

Some quotes were taken and modified only for the strong:-

United we stand, divided one will stand even stronger.
A lone ranger is better than 5 power rangers.
A man will need another man to break 30 small sticks, but a stronger man need only a hand to break those sticks.
When there's no will, a way will be made, by force.
Resistance is futile but fighting is not.

p/s: strong here means physically, mentally, everything..

...SoMEthiNg...

2009-07-30T12:20:00.003+03:00

This may or may not confuses you...
Something is anything which could be everything which here would also means something which could be simply nothing but depends on that something if that something is nothing it could be anything and if that something is a thing it could be everything and that everything would lead to an answer that is a thing coming from something.....
...above is a drivel to distract the young minds...

There is only one thing in our head during this hot breezy summer in Egypt "something", something which here means we need to do something. Well currently if you see us guys by any chance we look as though we are doing something which is really nothing, we don't do anything at the moment and that is not the way of the otomans. Seriously!

As you can see on top of the drivel we call it "something" it does not have anything regarding to this post. The reason why we call it something is because it expresses and reflects what we think most something and we express this something by using a torch light and draw an incomplete circle which may look like an oval.

...THE comeback...

There's nothing much to say for something so we go against it(we do this lots of times), lots of people in this world from the geniuses to the genius would agree to this fact. Doing something is a thing or an instrument of annoyance, this however will offend a lot of people thus making them forcing this geniuses to do something, what can we say we were force to do something also. That also depends on what this something is, we could say that we always do something because we always do something e.g. writing, drawing and making something. Different people, different definition.

What makes something, anything is how you look at this something, how you look at that certain person . No explanation available for this one, figure it out yourself, that's what makes something more interesting and by doing this you increase the chance of this certain something turning into anything.

...THE boredom...

Weird title as we can say, however this title have reasons, and that reason is what matters for this boredom title not the to be a title. Not any word could be a title right? I assume that you all may know why boredom is a subtitle in this something post, if its a no, then I will give a brief explanation, boredom is nothing which may lead to something, that's all.

...FAreweLL...

2009-07-25T22:30:00.005+03:00

(this post is a sequel to the previous post)

what can we say more saying "goodbye" is easier than waving goodbye(not really, it could also be hugging goodbye or kiss kiss hug hug goodbye or even the pounding shaking hand goodbye) or saying hello. What we're trying to say here is it's never been easy for us to say goodbye to our fellow families, friends, girlfriends, kids, cats (makes kit kats), trees, cars, rooms, clothes or even the place where we go the most, the LOO (seriously, no joking).

Lately, we have just part away from our families in Malaysia even though we live far away from them ever since we were young, we still can't get rid of the sad feeling of leaving them, there is always a feeling of staying longer or taking them with us, but what can we do, we can't fit them in the luggage, otherwise they might die!

THe predictable,The UnsToppable, The UnwanTINg, ....

2009-07-22T14:22:00.004+03:00

There is at time where something that you predict might come but it is unstopable and you sure don't even want it, the only thing to do here is to just accept it, and accept the fact that, that is just life; people come and they will someday go. For us we encounter with it a lot because we live far from our secondary family(cousins[we might make people confuse with our parents and siblings so it is appropriate to put it in that way]).

Per year however, we will visit our secondary family just for a short time usually at a special occasion e.g eid or sort. Visiting families is real fun but parting away from them isn't( depends on the people for us it doesn't but we need to adapt with it), that's just the way it is and that is life. Life...

Most people would and will say to cherish every moment of their life but do we know did they cherish their life and we would say to ourselves "what makes he said that?". There is a fact that we all live in, however most of us will not accept it, it is DEATH. An end to one's story, a time where a person's time stops, a time where a person's action stops, a time where all his memories will be remembered by others not him and that is the time where DEATH occurs. Death is somewhat unpredictable, but we know it will happen, someday, and yet we tend to forget about it, when the time comes we will regret most.

The reason why pointing out death here is because it is part of the phrase "cherish every moment", because when time comes, we certainly wouldn't cherish it, what is left will be memories. It is also part of the title, but that is not the reason why we make this post.
This post is only an introduction to the next post, ONLY an introduction nothing else.

ho ho ho....(I am not copying santa okay, this is how I laugh)

p/s: death is a harsh subject....maybe a bit sensitive.....

One More tImE,

(p/s: all the pictures inside this thread is the past picture nothing new, it is new to you guyz....)

the EnD is near....Ho hO ho....

2009-06-15T10:18:00.004+03:00

ho ho ho, the end does not mean anything in particular to all of you guyz out there, what it means really is that, HOLIDAY is near and coming sooner and not later, ho ho ho...END here means we don't really know what we're going to do, we can't just simply do nothing for the next 3 months, its what they called NO LIFE kind of thing. When we mention we don't know what we're going to do, actually we know what we're going to do, we planned it, we organized it and we draft it. The problem is we're not committed in doing such things, because what we're doing will get us hanged ( its a simile).

If not hanged, injuries or sort, death is unwanting you know. We are going back to Malaysia like it or not we have to, we prefer staying in Egypt, however we must and are needed to go back to Malaysia it is our home place after all, other than that, it's the place where we will start our summer holiday, it is the place where we get our clothes supply for the years coming, it is the place where we see people fighting over an ice cream in malay, it is a place where we see people with cool shoes, it is the place where we see everything thats normal seems un normal...Believe it or not....

Before going back to Malaysia, we have organised a slalom competition( if you don't know what it is Wiki it please, no time to explain), and we're going to use this....

called OTOMANS after our small group, the competition will be joined by only 4 people, not that much right, well it's because only 5 people knows how to stand on a skateboard properly, the rest are just showing off that they know, 4 people know how to slalom, 1 know how to slide properly, each of these five have their own specialty so maybe the fifth just not in the mood you know, we can't force him , its against his will.......

this is just one of the example of what we are doing before we're going back to Malaysia there are more, but its a minor project so there's no point in posting it........

(p/s:.................)

For US 3, the otomans it has been a relaxing and stressful months, it always been Like THIS, this is life, face it, get over it. Well for us it only begun and of course for everyone else too, the big exam had started, some study, some revise, some will relax of course they will ,we would. Relaxing is good, for example Afiq he only study or revise below 30 minutes time and takes a long time relaxing this is is strategy to understand things because while he is relaxing he is thinking. Afi takes a long time revising and relax little it maybe good for him but not good for others like afiq he couldn't revise long, Asri he is a bit balanced so that is ok......

the point we are making rite now is relaxing and revising helps your brain to work well, both is needed for the brain, it's brain food. We are on a tight time right now, and able to right this much on the blog, we are not up to date and certainly we are not monthly blog as well, there is just no time for us to log in and type....

at the time this is it, the backspace is not working so it is a bit stressful......

tHe Resurrection of the "KUMBANG"

2009-04-15T22:04:00.005+02:00

"KUMBANG" a malaysian word meaning BEETLE... it is an insect with hard outer shell and 3 pair of leg...
This word has made us think to create our latest creation...a 6 wheeler

since we the OTOMANs are unique like to make it really extreme n want to make people say "that's the shit man!!", we upgrade it a little bit by adding 2 more wheel n turn it into 8 wheeler...
this is the first 8 wheeler mini longboard...
N when its in 8 wheel mode its called "TOO MUCH"

...The Law Of Cost And Effect And the EFFECTED...

2009-04-04T21:05:00.003+02:00

wHen oil price increase Everything just went up suddenly, there is also a sudden case of inFlAtion. To help ourSelves from Making The COnDITIOn WorSt ThAN it IS, The only SOLUTION is By savING. BY which mean Not to waste a LOT of MOney on junk, ProbabLY mOST of tHE people lIving, Breathing in This so-called peaceful world know this, but Do they act as they know IT?

wHen the Cost is HIGh, the eFFECT will Be most people will be WORKing SUPREmely HArder tO EVEN get A lil' BIt of mOney or for Some people ThiNKing HARDER how To Avoid it, well of Course For some To AVOid IT. The EFFECTED is THE people living IN this planet, as YOU all know money IS important to LIve, it's ParT OF our LIFE, nevertheless it IS onLy IMPORTANT to survive nothing else. MoSt of our money iS spent on fooD, for one day we spend about more than 100 hundred dollars without us knowing, and above that consciously. THis means that for a year we will spend about 1 million or more( depends on the people) only on food, if we take into account all the bills and clothes we spend about tenth of a billion. FoR some the effects is not that much to them since they could manage their wealth but for most its not( I cant support this part of point since most of the people that I look seems unworried but acts as they are worried).

...The Cost of The effect...

none, most people will rely and blame the government, I am willing to contradict myself to say this, however this is true, and it is happening, it is the fact.

..the EFFECTED..

...keeps on wasting, sad isn't it....(in general)

note:I am viewing in general point of perspective, if some of the point offended you I'm sorry, yes, some people work hard to earn some money, what im saying here, is the people who does not work hard but gains more, and waste more.Again I'm sorry if some of this offended you.

bcoz of u!!!

2009-03-19T16:39:00.005+02:00

Do u notice that earth is getting warmer? Do u know why? its all bcoz of us... the earth is getting warmer from greenhouse gases. greenhouse gases contain:-

Carbon Dioxide- happens a lot when u coal to make electricity.

Methane- happens a lot when cow fart.

Nitrous Oxide- happens a lot from car exhaust.

chlorofluorocarbons- comes from fridge.

when the radiation comes from the sun enter the greenhouse gas, most of the radiation escape from the greenhouse but the other radiation reflect back to Earth so the Earth will getting warmer and warmer.

Now u might not hav feel it but think about the future! think about ur kids! also think about the Earth! if the the earth is getting warmer there will be 'GLOBAL WARMING'! there will be a drought, the forest will burn, the sea level will rise which means that North Pole, South Pole and Greenland will melt! there are some other ways to reduce it.

Walk to school if ur school is not far way

buy local product

switch off the light if u're not using it

plant more tree's

use public tranportation

on A a one fine day when it was rAinin', COLD, freeZING, sHivering, something ThAT make your nose runny, well ItWAS A GOOd day like a fine day it was. It WAS the Day before school opens, tItous stops attacking people becoz we now know wat he waNTS, not just that the house is cleaner than it was before, afIQ doing HIS homEworK AT the lASt day of HOLIDAY, nice boy he is. Afi DESIGNin, taLKIN, eatin, SITTIn, REadin, u know what he do rite??? Asri CHattin, chaATTIN, chatTIN, AND OF COURse eatiN. Of couRSE it WAS rAInin, no ONE want To go OUT at the MOMENT, itS raiNIN COLD outside!!!

when The RAIN stoPPED and Start IT WEt the floor OF the BAlcony, so IT was a bit sliPPERY, THAT u might tHInk we're FLOATING, to tell YOU the truth ITS coLD, tHE WAter was FREEzing not UNTIll we wiped IT off, it WAS good Fun.

...THE STORY...

THE story Goes LIKE this "ONce upon a WET, COLD, FREEZING, 0 DEGREES celcius temperature and so on, there live 3 heroes. the first one was medium, normal size, male gendre, and intellectual, second was tall, average size for people, male gendre and of course..... , the last one was short but tall for them becoz he was young, IDK size, male gendre and good with the ladies.

IT was a good DAY AT THeir land because it was normally WET, COLD, FREEZING, 0 DEGREES celcius temperature and so on, and it is also a good time to slide. SO the plan is....

oNCe upon a time, at place so near to you, near as an air, there live a cat named TiTUos ( this what i call it). HE is big as a lion could be, never loose to any tiger, and can sleep longer than a couch potato. HE is also darkish-grayish-blackish-whitish dark cat, a foot-killer we can say, HE is also good at arm wrestling especially when he scracth'em. Have this strong eye glare that may confuse people on what he wants, and is a pain in the bathroom. BUt he is a good cat to sleep on, that is if you prefer another mat cat like him.

Right now, he is sleeping, or somewhere in the house, he is really good at hiding because of his colour that enables him to camouflage. OK, here we go, the story goes like this, before the day that comes, tituos came, and he said "PLAY the best song in the world", and we said "no, it's not for sale", then Titous attacked us, but before that happens, he told us something "I'm starving". We figure that the reason why he attack us was because he was hungry or starving. When he suprisingly attack us, AfI saves AsRi by using AFIq's body, because of this two members of otomans DieD. they LEt aSri live because of a reason, it is because HE have Too MAny GFs, though afIQ didn't have time to think about it, but 'hey, been trying to meet you'.

aFter a while, Asri brought The F00d back, when does that TitOus realise that his time will come, and quickly transform into a bIGGER cat than he Was BEfore, and attack Asri. LuckilY, aSri was lucky, to have his lucky something but lucky and force to push Titous BackwaRD AND MAKe him look as if He WAS doing a running man. This was to Stall Titous, beCAuse he was surely fierce as A DraGon, and HAVE a sUper stRong roar. Again ASri snapped out a kNife and stabbed SometHing HaRD, lIquid thing sTart to DRippeD aND it Was reD, like The Colour of blood in the rainbow.

When aFIQ anD afi Was back From tHE beD, it WAS pizza aLL over. tHEy took A look at What was GoinG on, And what they Found were TwO FIGure, one STANdING up, and thE other doing something that they caN'T figure out. When they took An extRa CAUtious look it WAS tiTouS eating, and asri standing.

They WEre so Happy That they found fairy Tail Happy end DO EXIST, EXCEPT fOR tHE fact That ThEre isn't any end to it... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA....

Introducetion...

As we are human being, thinking is not prevented, it is never to be censored in the history of man, except for talking. What we are saying is that lots of people now days, act. By which we mean, act before self-acting, by which we also mean, thinking through the act by which will be made. As a result of act, things happen, by which we also mean may lead to sumthin unexpected, meaning something that we expected didn't come, or things just didn't go to plan as a result of act.

Succulent part...

Money tends to blind people, this wat they do, nothing else, if you want to argue, just do. For the people who think, money is only a mere tool to survive this money thirst world, for the deep thought people, they tend to not use the money, to get far away from the world, being happy with nature.

The tItle...

when we are moving forward, there is always an obstacle, like an obstacle course, you need to do the obstacle in order to finish the course. what we are saying here is if you want to win keep movin' forward, don't get anything in the way. This also mean, the title, if we can relate it to the succulunt part, don't get money in your way in doing something.

contra-ducetion....

to contradict my ideas in introduction, to act means to do, to do means to move, to move means to live, as you go deeper in the meaning, it will become better. Basically, to act means to live, if u don't act you are a living dead, in other words u don't need to think to live, it's nature. But thinking of life itself is a big thing, because by doing this you will appreciate life more.

Usually people use this to get straight to the point and to make a long story short, in other word to summarise.
Well we're going to use it as well, in a way...

To make a really long story short, we have a REALLY big exam coming sooner than later. To make a really short story long, we like it.

This BIG exam coming probably 43% decide our future, coz we know grades doesn't decide our future, but if we get bad grades the probability of getting a bright future is 13%. 43% is not that much if compare to 50% or 60%, our future lay in our hand, metaphorically of course. So what we are planning to do is 'NOT' to study hard NOR study smart, we're going to study in our own super special way, which far more efficient than anyone could think of.

the Pixies!!!

2009-02-02T22:27:00.004+02:00

linking loading patiencelink to diff place

introduction of band
Combining jagged, roaring guitars and stop-start dynamics with melodic pop hooks, intertwining male-female harmonies and evocative, cryptic lyrics, the Pixies were one of the most influential American alternative rock bands of the late '80s. The Pixies weren't accomplished musicians -- Black Francis wailed and bashed out chords while Joey Santiago's lead guitar squealed out spirals of noise. But the band were inventive, rabid rock fans that turned conventions inside out, melding punk and indie guitar rock, classic pop, surf rock, and stadium-sized riffs with singer/guitarist Black Francis' bizarre, fragmented lyrics about space, religion, sex, mutilation, and pop culture; while the meaning of his lyrics may have been impenetrable, the music was direct and forceful.

forming of band

The Pixies were formed in Boston, MA, in 1986 by Charles Thompson and his roommate, Joey Santiago. Born in California, Thompson began playing music as a teenager, before he moved to the East Coast during high school. Following graduation, he became an anthropology major at the University of Massachusetts. Half way through his studies at the college, he went to Puerto Rico to study Spanish, and after six months he decided to move back to the U.S. to form a band. Thompson dropped out of school and moved to Boston, managing to persuade Santiago to join him. Advertising in a music paper for a bassist who liked "Hüsker Dü and Peter, Paul & Mary," the duo recruited Kim Deal (who was billed as Mrs. John Murphey on the group's first two records), who had previously played with her twin sister Kelly in the folk-rock garage band the Breeders in her hometown of Dayton, OH. On the advice of Deal, the group recruited drummer David Lovering. Inspired by Iggy Pop, Thompson picked the stage name Black Francis and the group named itself the Pixies after Santiago randomly flipped through the dictionary.

p/s: what we basically want to tell you guyz is that we love this band so much coz u know from what is mention above their song is brief, powerful and forceful. just listen to the song and we bet your gonna love it!!!!!!!

new year....

2009-01-24T19:01:00.002+02:00

1.conflicts and stufff
what do we say when new year come...
fireworks in palestine is so bright today right, the israelis help them rite???
no wonder why....

here is the case...
people are dumb...
when they learn they become more dumber er er....
when people don't know what to do, they tend to do something cool aite...
so when they do something cool, it ain't cool...
this is the dumb thing about new year....
it started with an ain't cool thing....

the cool thing about the new year....
the thing that we could only think about no is of that obama becoming president...
that probably is a good thing for everyone rite...
because you know...well we ain't gonna explain it all but we think u know....
the thing bout obama becoming president overweighs that of the war...
but the problem bout the war is our problem too...
so do what u have to do...
contribute less is better to none...

2.beoble
the best thing about the new year
well basically when the new year come people will basically start from scratch again, this is for those who still in school, this means that they will have new aims, new uniform, new looks and mostly new for everything because they're humans...
new year to student also means that they have about 9 months of education..
this is good for the students who are willingly to sacrifice their to studying....

for those who are still working new year means, new year!!!!
well, to be honest, working people is different in some way of a student...
this is because they work and student learn...
its really hard to understand this unless you are in their situation...
its like to kill a mockingbird...

second best thing about new year
for the gamers, new cool games are bout to come this year...
for music lover, new music will come this year too probably better than of last year....
for movie fans, don't watch twilight and other disney production its a brainwashing thing to control your children minds in watching those things....

well basically what we're tryin to say is that they are lots of new things coming this year just wait and be patient, this doesn't mean sitting and do nothing....

review..review..review

first thing first....click this cool link below:
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/473402
watch that movie....

we've read reviews in magazines about this twilight but we simply ignore it coz it's just a minor advertisement that people usually do to advertise....

we also took some reviews from the link too just to show how bad is the movie....

Okay so yeah.. I read the first book and liked pages 3OO+. LOLOL. It's so true.. EVERY girl and eventually every guy goes crazy over Twilight. I watched the movie before I actually read it, and I thought it was ridiculous. Cheap budget movie. Acting was pretty baddd. CONTACTS! LOLOL.I'm still going to read the rest of the series, but I really don't think it's necessary to go crazy over fiction lovey dovey romance.Especially at school... Every 2 people have twilight books in their hand, and everyone's always like OH EM GEE EDWARD!! >:lit's raelly annoying.I lvoe this video, it speaks the truth. DxThe whole time I watched the movie, I thought it was crap. It was absolutely pointless. Robert Pattinson sucks. :D<3

I can relate to this movie I saw twlight with 4 chicks thinkn no film can be a bad film if im with 4 girls... right. I WAS SO WRONG! Twilght was so damm boring! and worst of all my friends got 9 meter long posters to take home that day so everytime im there I get rememind of that boring piece of shit... Anyway be prepared theres 2 more twilight films comming new moon and eclipse ... and ill save youu the time and money by ruining the ending.
THE CHICK TURNS INTO A VAMPIRE ( lame ending I no but i just saved you about £20 in movie tickets and about 4 hours of your time )
Anyway after my looong rant about twighlt the flash rocked same happend when i saw it sept i was next to the chicks making all the noise and i new them all...

so as u guyz or gals see twilight is such a wasted movie even with the highest grossing and all star wars is so better....

think first before....

2008-12-12T23:39:00.004+02:00

hahahahaha...
plz don't think any of these video is funny coz it definitely hurts...
first one is a guy on a longboard...

this is a lesson to us all and plz don laugh ok...another example but with a skate boarder...

plz don't do this at home... and again it really hurts.. this time it's the pro but they didn't get hurt or sort they just fell with style y'all...

that is enuff for now... and we all think u get what we meant by this video...
it is to set an example to us all to be prepared and alert when accident may occur...
and also practise always make perfect especially on skateboard's tricks and also try to avoid speed wobbles coz it is scary...

2 days+1 nite= new experience

2008-12-11T16:59:00.004+02:00

new experience meaning cool experience not lvlin' up experience, new experience like:

survival experience
washin' up the old style experience
high errr sta, str, starv, dex, n many more experience
stayin up rite experience
and many more cool experience that u could imagine...

first of all,we went to a far far far far far far away place from home, it was so far even the farrest place could be called near.

what we learn from this visit to taba' or Sinai or Suez governorate is....

APPRECIATE EVERYTHING EVEN ROCKS COZ THEY HELP A LOT

another thing is trust a word that only people understand not animal...

1 last thing to say waiting is what normal people do, wasting is what lazy people do, spending and using is what smart people normally do when they are lazy...

D!3e sT437!ng !!!!!!!!!!!!

first of all... smile, ehem2, testing2, 1,2,3 ok...

Dice stacking is a performance art, from which the stacker scoops the dice with a cup of any type from any surfaces he/she wants and with a super cool move the stacker will stacks the dice into a vertical column via centrifugal force. In other words, inertia, please people I hope you know what inertia means, ok basically inertia is the tendency of all objects to resist a change in motion. It is directly proportional to an objects mass. The heavier the object is, the more inertia it has and it would keep going forever if it was in a frictionless environment. Another way to put it is inertia is how much an object will resist a change of velocity. its physic lesson again...
so basically dice stacking is pretty much hard in a way that people will not find because it is hard...
u'll need plenty of practise to stack a dice and don't use your hand to stack it use a cup or sort...
just type in dice stacking in youtube and you'll find loads of stuff there...
(p/s: we can't provide anything evidential proof that we've stacked dice but please believe us we are seriously not lyin to you guyz)
yeaaaaaaa...

god's algorithm(plz read even if it is long)

relates to rubik's cube... have fun reading

A standard ‘3x3x3’ Rubik’s Cube has 6 coloured sides, 21 pieces and 54 outer surfaces.

This means there are more than 43 quintillion possible configurations, or 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 to be exact. But there is only one solution.

"God’s algorithm is the name given to the formula for solving the cube in the least possible number of moves."

Allowing a second for each turn, it would take 1400 trillion years to go through all the possible configurations. By comparison, the universe is around 13 billion years old.

Widely used in schools and universities, the Rubik’s Cube can help explain complex particle physics and mathematical algorithms.

‘God’s algorithm’ is the name given to the formula for solving the cube in the least possible number of moves. Scientists put this figure at 25.

The mathematics of the 3x3 Cube

As the centre pieces of each face of the Cube do not move, the total number of possible configurations is calculated by multiplying the number of possible arrangements of the corner pieces by the number of possible arrangements of edge pieces.

There are 8 corner pieces, so the number of possible arrangements equals 8! (or 8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1), which is 40320. Each corner piece has 3 different orientations, so this figure must be multiplied by 3⁸ (3x3x3x3x3x3x3x3), which equals 6561. But when the Cube is almost complete, the number of possible moves diminishes, so the equation must be adjusted. In this case, once the second from last corner piece is placed, the last piece can have only one automatic orientation, so 6561 must be divided by 3⁷, which is 2187. Finally, the total possible arrangements of corner pieces

40320 x 2187 = 88,179,840.

With the 12 Edge Pieces, the number of possible arrangements equals 12! (12x11x10…), which is 479,001,600. However, unlike corner pieces, it is impossible to exchange just two edge pieces, so once the third from last is placed, the remaining two can have only one possible arrangement, which means this figure must be divided by 2, leaving 239,500,800. Each edge piece has two different orientations, so this must now be multiplied by 2¹², which gives 6561. This figure must also be adjusted because once the third from last edge piece is placed, one of the remaining two can be reoriented but the last will always have a fixed orientation in relation to it. So 6561 must be divided by 2¹¹, which is 2048. Finally, the total possible arrangements of edge pieces

239,500,800 x 2048 = 490,497,638,400.

So the total possible arrangements of Rubik's Cube

88,179,840 x 490,497,638,400 = 43,252,003,274,489,856,000.

Or, to put it another way,

4.3 times 10 to the power of 19.

(p/s: just read it ok, it done no harm to your brain)

night session...

2008-11-23T23:15:00.005+02:00

The time is 2 o'clock in the morning, and that time is the time we want and that time is now. The concrete wave is calling us like crazy, the wave can't wait for us to surf on it. When we are on the wave, the wave kills us and it was bogus, speed wobble happens and we like it. No injuries, but lots of fun. It was dark,we couldn't see anything, only the moonlight that shine with the help of the sun. No matter, the wave is calling, dogs are howling, cars horning, bumping and we're surfing. Fun morning, moaning lots of time, as time flew by we had conquer the wave. People eyes' staring, looking, watching, fills with curiousity and question.

The sound, the sound the wheel spinning, rolling on the wave, sound of the bearing, slowly rusting, and the sound of the heart thumping with adreanaline as going down the wave. The big wave was slowly appearing, suddenly a hole appears, with quick turning we avoid it. It was a ghostly town, without people on the streets, no noise coming from people but noise coming from our wheels,a 52 mm wheels and our abec 3 and 7, positive bearing. Racing, surfing, slaloming, carving, pushing the board. Never we were remind of time, just reminded of fun.

otomans: the beginning...

2008-11-23T19:06:00.004+02:00

bla, bla, bla, bla, bla... etc.... ok that's the end... fin...

Introduction
otomans consist of only 3 people, no more, no less and we don't want people to join us, 3 is enough for now. Afi is the leader, Asri is the co-leader and Afiq is the co- ordinator. This is not true we otomans don't care about position, we are equal to each other, each people have their own strength and weakness and so do we. The group otomans is founded on the summer of 2008 by mr.afiq,mr.afi and mr.asri basically because they have nothing to do during the time. Main aim for this group is spending most of the time of our short life just for fun that may hel the environment, but we always remember to pray, go to the mosque, reading books, and more stuff that people do. We think that everything is fun and good but not the really bad stuff like you know what.

What We Do
Mostly we do all the kraziest of stuff, nothing else just kraziest of stuff. We stick to nike caption thingy "just do it" and we just do it. Krazy meaning crazy, funky, oldschool, projects, fun, saving the world, and even the boring stuff. Saving the world is our main aim, we make stuff by using old stuff that people will never ever used. For example, if we found some box in the big rubbish bin we take it, make something out of it, turn it into something kewl and use it, for the good of people. So basically what we do is krazy yet saving the world at the same time. SAVE THE EARTH PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What we've done
As you had seen from our previous post we have basically done:

longboard
the dawg mask
cool art
water rocket(planning)
setting a world record for tony hawk underground 2
this blog maybe
video
and many more

There is lots of stuff that we are planning to do just for fun, so that we don't waste our time. We don't like this thing called wasting even with food, if we are full we still eat to the last drop. We like competition because that just normal for a human even the nerdiest of nerd still compete with each other who read the most. What we have to say is this...

stop wasting time people!!!!

last of word

To sum it all, otomans is group that is created to spent our minute of life to the deepest of fun. No wasting. No killing trees. No sad faces. No killing. No smoking. Just say no to all bad things okay. One more thing to say don't join our group and also a bad man is a good man and so is everyone we just need to be in their shoe to realise this, never think bad stuff about people because we have more weaknesses than others, if we know they are bad people, just pray to god to open their eyes and see what they are doing which is bad for you guyz, or you could always persuade them. Lastly what we want to say is....

WHAT ARE WE?

WE ARE WHAT WE ARE, WE ARE THE OTOMANS!!!!

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

(P/S: BAD ENGLISH SORRY, IT'S KINDA BORING TO SORRY, JUST DO IT OK.. ;3 )

MINI LONGBOARD

2008-10-22T19:58:00.003+02:00

After accomplished finishing our first longboard, and sell ou first longboard. We have decided to make a mini longboard, because making a longboard is just to boring and it take a long time to build. We want to make a mini longboard because it is easy to build, its look cool, we want to something easy to carry around and can be put in a backpack. We also want a mini because we want to try slalom.

Rubik's cube

2008-10-13T21:24:00.002+02:00

Rubik's cube is a puzzle cube invented by an architect, named Erno Rubik's. Me(Afi )and Me(Afiq ) has been playing the cube for one year rite now. It took Me(Afi) 4 days to learn to solve using his imagination, while Me(Afiq) took 1 week to solve it because he was been teach by (Afi).

Our first average record was 4 minutes and 36 seconds....now after playing for one year we have achieved of an average record 1 minutes and 14 seconds

BUSINESS

2008-10-11T10:59:00.004+02:00

after the last summer...we have finished our longboard, since we are capable making longboard we have decided to make business by selling longboard (in skewl)....

we also sell malaysian food to the student sometimes, since malaysian food are popular at skewl... roughly we gained about 100 pounds per months....but if someone order a longboard we gained more.... to us this is like an achievement, since we're making money without our parents....
