Death and Exams

Assalamu Alaikum...

Yesterday I found out some terrible sad news. For one thing I had physics yesterday, and I'd admit that I flunked in it. It was really hot yesterday. I went walking to take my exam, trying to study as much as I can on my way there. The heat made me restless and the exam was for two hours. I had brought some money with me.

I had brought some money with me for me to take a taxi and come straight back home. My mom was on the phone when I got back and once she got off, she told me the news. It was what we had expected, along with other relatives of mine. My aunt Majida had died on Saturday, the 21st of June 2008.

My cousin told my mom that my aunt was taken to the hospital on Friday, and she died on Saturday. I had experienced death before with my pet cats. It hit me hard, but I'm dealing with it. The first time I ever experienced death of a close friend of mine was when my first pet cat, Leo, had died in a car accident.

He was run over and I remember the day clearly. I was so speechless and I was with my mom when I saw him dead. I tried telling my dad and I think I did, but I became quiet and just walked back to the bedroom I shared with my brother to spend some time alone. I actually cried a little over his death.

That was the first time I ever experienced death. I was planning to tell my dad about it, but when I found out someone else was going to tell him in person, I decided against it. My aunt's death is definitely going to overshadow my Towjehee, and it might affect my study even more.

I updated my mood on Facebook and changed my status. My mom wrote on my brother's Facebook wall and sent him a personal e-mail. He called and from what my mom said, he was crying. He got what mom sent to him and he did some surfing, eventually finding out our aunt's death on the internet, through on of the Arab media sites.

Tarek told my mom that my aunt was buried in Jarash. My cousin had only informed us yesterday because they were busy dealing with visitors coming over to give their condolences to them. Once Tarek had found out, he took a day off from his work. He called us some time after 3 pm yesterday.

He said he would be visiting our dad so he would tell him personally. He probably had already did, and I have no idea how it went. My creativity concerning my stories and codelimin has been very limited, if not actually being blocked since I finished 'Agumon X's Entrance'.

I basically came up with some thoughts on how to deal with the next episode in 'Trail of Five' with Nasem and Flamon being in the World of Darkness. Nasem's toughest time in the Digital World would be in the World of Darkness. I also came up with a new idea for a fandom codelimin story of mine.

I haven't settled on a name for the story yet, but I do have some ideas for it. Yesterday Rainbow cleaned a lot of my bedroom. What's left is basically for me to do now, and it basically deals with organizing stuff in it. Take care, and asslamu alaikum...

Cool StarCam Webcam...

Asslamu Alaikum...

There was a power cut on the 22nd of June 2008, Sunday. I had found out that upon returning home from taking my Towjehee exam on that day. At first I didn't know, but I got suspicious when the computer won't turn on and then I was sure when I couldn't turn on the hallway light.

At first I was surprised to see the electricity in the refrigerator off, and I thought it had something to do with the wiring of the refrigerator and its transformer, but I was wrong in the end. The power cut was during the day and so it didn't matter much. It allowed me to take a shower and shampoo on that day.

I also clipped my finger and toe nails that day. A third thing was that I studied some for Towjehee. Yesterday was the second day off of Towjehee and I studied some then. I went out with my mom to get some medicine, and I washed some dishes in the kitchen sink. I went walking to the Towjehee exam today, and I had Earth Science.

I was sort of confident in it, because it was the first subject I had studied before the exams had started. I didn't bring the book with me, but I did bring my cellular with me. I know I'm familiar to students who take the Towjehee exams with me in the same school. I wore my favorite green t-shirt today to the exam.

I took the exam, and it was easy, and I did my best in it. I hadn't slept much last night because I stayed up late watching some programs I like. I woke up during Fajr prayer and I was still sleepy, but I prayed and stayed awake before heading to the exam.

I had left the home a bit early and so I got there with time to spare. There were others who arrived before me, but not too many. We went into the exam chamber eventually and I closed my cellular and put it aside away with the other cellulars.

The exam was two hours long and once I was through with answering the best I could, it was easy for me to close my eyes for awhile and drift to sleep. Of course I was too aware of my surroundings with my ears alert to sounds in the exam chamber. It seems I making it a habit to count the seconds after I'm done with the exam.

That's the seconds left for the time of the exam. So I basically felt relaxed and sleepy at the same time. I gathered my cellular and left the school with my exam done. I walked to a bank branch near the seventh circle and I retrieved some money. After doing so, I took a taxi to City Mall and got myself a webcam; some DVD-RW CDs and a lousy headphones brand.

It was the first time I got stuff from that place alone I think and it was fun. Wearing the green t-shirt sure did give me confidence. The first thing I found was the headphones. I didn't realize how lousy it was then. The things were reorganized, but I was to find the webcam and the DVD-RW CDs that I was looking for.

I paid for them and an officer confirmed his checking of them, and I left the mall. I walked for awhile until I took a taxi, and the taxi brought me back here. Some time after I got home, after I opened the headphones, I realized how lousy it was. My head was too big to fit in the headphones and the structure was bad, but that doesn't matter.

At first I had a problem with the webcam, but I was able to handle it. I now wonder if it would work if I invited someone else to view it and they could actually view it. Through buying the webcam, the electronic hardware I want to get has decreased by one. Tomorrow is the second day off of Towjehee.

But on Thursday is Physics... I'd need to be studying for that... I used some of my DVD-RW CDs to make backup of some of my files and movies. On the 21st of June 2008, Saturday I had thought up the myths charge form for Eevee, letting it have a codelimin form. Its myths charge form is named 'Titanamon'.

Its motto is 'The Fox of Myths'. I haven't thought of any attack yet, or any accurate description of it. On the 22nd of June 2008, Sunday, I worked on; finished, and uploaded episode 7 of 'Trail of Five' named 'Agumon X's Entrance'. It would probably be the only chapter I write; finish, and upload during Towjehee.

On that same day I thought up episode 21 of 'Trail of Five' named 'Base of Operations'. The webcam's brand is named MSI StarCam. Take care, and assalamu alaikum...

First Break for Towjehee...

Assalamu Alaikum...

Yesterday was a day with new experiences. I did go out for my third Towjehee exam, and I did have the material to study it. I walked there all the way and only brought my watch with me. I had brought the book with me to study it on the way and I did so some study on my way there.

I got there and when the doors opened, I went in and I was the first into my exam chamber. I put my book aside in the chamber, but one of the monitors picked it up and told him that it would be outside. I was fine with it and eventually took the test. It was basically easy, and some questions I answered without studying them.

There were some questions I left alone, even though I had studied them, because I had forgotten them. At one point, after I was done with answering, I think either a monitor or the teacher of the subject approached me and asked me if I was O.K. I confirmed I was O.K. and that I only finished the exam.

I constantly glanced at my watch, and I eventually started staring at it and counting the seconds in my mind mentally. Unlike other times, I didn't wake up in time to pray Fajr in its time, so I made up for it. Before I left, I had taken the garbage out. Once the time was up, I gave the answer sheet, went out, got my book and left.

My watch makes a noise every hour, and it happened during the exam, but it was O.K. I even heard one of the students trying to cheat, and one of the monitors was writing down something later on, which I think was the one who was cheating. I made sure to keep to myself and stay quiet.

I changed my YouTube e-mail yesterday from a e-mail Yahoo! account of mine, to my Google e-mail account. I tried doing the same with this blog, but it didn't work, so I just left it. I studied for Towjehee with the upcoming fourth exam, which is tomorrow, yesterday some time after I had returned home.

At first I was planning on using Yahoo! Experience when it was going to appear, but then I found out some information which discouraged me from it. I found out the information yesterday and Yahoo! Experience might have something to do with the intelligence agencies around the world trying to make the internet less free.

In other words, for every e-mail you send, you'd have to pay for it, and for something like Yahoo! Experience, you might have to report your blog and if you don't, it would be like you made a crime. And that's just the beginning. That's why I've decided to stay on 360 in Yahoo!

I changed the gas canister for the stove in the kitchen yesterday night. I went to Friday prayer today and shared my prayer rug with another Muslim Brother. Afterwards, I went out to get some groceries. While at the counter, I asked about light bulbs and I was told of some of their prices, but I didn't get any this time.

Today is the first day in Towjehee that is my first break. It's my first day off of Towjehee. I need to be studying, but I'm not. I guess I'd have to eventually go with plan B for after Towjehee. Take care, and assalamu alaikum...

Unprepared...

Assalamu Alaikum...

I got some interesting ideas for one of my stories. It's one of my own, and my first, but not only, Power Rangers fandom story. The story is called 'Meric Rangers' and I got the new ideas for its storyline from yesterday. One of them is the first Green Power Ranger appearing once more yet not being Tommy.

Instead it would be one of my own characters. Since he would appear, Dragonzord would appear once more. Another idea I'm willing to explore is the Meric Rangers recovering and protecting the power eggs. I was thinking of someone controlling Brontosaurs also, and maybe that ranger would be the first green power ranger. Who is my story would be my own character.

I was also thinking of having the main villainous send more than one or two, or even more than three snake minions at the rangers. These are all ideas and I haven't got them into episodes or know when or where they'd exactly appear in 'Meric Rangers' storyline.

Like yesterday, I woke up early today and prayed Fajr. I didn't go as early today as I did yesterday, and I really didn't bring my cellular. I left the home a little after 7 am and I don't know when I got to the school, but I was the first one there, and for quite some time I was restless being alone because I didn't know the time.

Like yesterday, I took a taxi to a bridge near the 7th circle, and I didn't walk. I used more of my money, but it's no big deal. This time I knew where to go and so I don't have any problem with directions now. I hadn't studied for the exam but eventually the school bell rung and before I knew, the exam had started.

The questions were interesting and somewhat easy, if I had studied for it, but didn't and couldn't since I didn't have any material to study on. I used some of my prier knowledge of some of the subject to answer many of the questions. I didn't answer all the questions, or my answers weren't complete.

It isn't a big deal though. I brought my cap with me today, somewhat instead of my cellular. I walked back, and on my way back I stopped by a branch of a bank and retrieved some money my brother had sent me. I also bought myself a wrist watch with some of the money I had for myself, and not what I retrieved from my brother.

I did some study for the tomorrow's exam today, and I have the intention to study the subject more. During the exam, I was feeling more restless than anything else. Now I have experience on how things would go when I'm unprepared for a Towjehee exam, and I don't like it... Take care, and assalamu alaikum...

First Towjehee Exam...

Assalamu Alaikum...

I clipped my finger and toe nails on the 15th of June 2008, Sunday. On the 16th of June 2008, Monday I took both a bath and shower, and studied some for Towjehee. Towjehee started today. I had my first exam today. Today started out by me getting up early and using the computer. I prayed Fajr in its time and around 6:30 am I left the home. I walked to the main street and I walked until I took a taxi to a little after the 7th circle, to a bridge after the seventh circle near C-Town.

I paid the driver; got out; crossed the bridge, and using the directions I remembered a friend of mine telling me, I eventually got to the school. I got to the school around 1:15 am or a little before. At first for a few moments I was going to have passed the school but I eventually turned around and went back on the right track.

I got into the school and I chose a spot and stayed there. At first I was jumping between bringing my cellular, and not bringing it, but in the end I decided to bring it. I also had decided to buy myself a watch. Eventually other student came and so I wasn't alone. Besides me, there was another guy who kept to himself, and his study is private study like me.

A little before 9 am the bell rung, and the teacher split the students that had come into two groups: one that was public study and the other private study. I of course was on the private study and I found out where my exam hall was, along with my seat. I found out that no cellulars were allowed, and so I closed my cellular and kept it hidden with me during the exam.

The study hall was on the second floor of the school. Besides me and the other quiet guy, there were three other students who attended today, out of a total of 12 or 15, which were the number of seats. Two monitors watched us. I did my best on the exam, and insha' Allah it was enough, if not more than enough. Memorizing the verses did pay off after all, since the very first question concerned it.

I was also glad that I had studied some parts of the end of the help book because some of the last questions came from that part, a part which I was somewhat familiar with. At first I didn't answer all or most of the questions, but slowly I answered most of the questions, knowing that I answered much of them wrong.

I eventually waited after the time was over and once the time was over, one of the monitors took the answers only, as I and the others kept the actual questions. I didn't bring any books to study, because I didn't want to confuse myself with studying at the last moments, plus I didn't want the burden of carrying a book.

I left the school after the exam's time was over with the rest of the students and opened my cellular. I walked all the way back home and it took me about an hour, but it was hot and I sweat a lot of course, though there was a cool breeze from time to time in certain places. Now I know hoe long it might take with me walking there all the way.

At first I was thinking of burning the questions sheet that I was allowed to keep with me, since it wasn't any useful to the teacher, but then I decided to keep it as a record. It would be nice to have it at hand. So far, Towjehee has gotten off on a good start I'd say. I don't have anything that can help me study for tomorrow's exam, so let's see how I'd do on an exam that I haven't studied.

With Towjehee starting today, a new challenging adventure of mine has finally arrived, and has started. This adventure and challenge would last throughout Towjehee until I find out my Towjehee average. Now I leave the rest up to Allah. The only thing I was scared of during the exam was one of the monitors catching my cellular with me, but alhamdullah it didn't happen.

I kept my cellular hidden in my jeans jacket and closed. I decided not to bring it with me tomorrow. I worked on 'Agumon X's Entrance' today. I also thought up a new fandom codelimin story of mine, inspired through 'The Lion of Justice' title, named 'The Owl of Peace'. Take care, and assalamu alaikum...

Renewed Confidence...


Assalamu Alaikum...

I've returned to watching MMPR on YouTube on the 7th of June 2008, Saturday. I had started watching it in 1993 in the U.S., but didn't see all of it. Now is my chance to see all three seasons of MMPR, and I'm going to take it.

On the 8th of June 2008, Sunday, I did numerous stuff, which include visiting my aunt in the first circle and having an eye test, and paying for eyeglasses with some additions to it. A new experience was getting some sand for Crescent on that day on my own.

I went to get help first by hiring a pickup and a few workers. I did that while I was coming back home after my visit in the first circle. We went to the sand store and I paid for it. After I paid for it, three sand bags were loaded and we came to my home. I paid the driver of the pickup.

The two workers unloaded the sand bags and brought the three bags to the front entrance outside of my home. I felt at that time and I somewhat still feel now proud and confident in myself in doing it. I know paying for new eyeglasses helped in giving me confidence into dealing with getting the sand.

The next day, on the 9th of June 2008, Monday, I dealt with Crescent's potty; scrubbed some parts of the floor in my bedroom, and washed some dishes in the kitchen sink. I took out the garbage yesterday; retrieved my eyeglasses from the first circle; bought a book needed for me to help me study for Towjehee while I was coming back, and I had an outing for bread.

The photo is of me in the new eyeglasses. They are medical and have protection against the computer monitor, which basically contributed in me being near-sighted. I described both Twamon and Slytonemon; worked some on 'Resistance of Dawn Grass', and did updating on some of my codes for my codelimin website on the 28th of June 2008, Wednesday.

On the 1st of June 2008, Sunday I thought up some new fandom copedam of mine, which I named 'Aimermon Crystal Mode'; 'Otazoidmon Crystal Mode', and 'Siromon Crystal Mode'. I've decided to have Valhallamon be the Angelic Watcher of the Digital World in my fandom codelimin stories that he appears in.

Another would be Lucemon who would be able to evolve to the mate form of Clevismon, and who would be the Angelic Sentinel of the Digital World. I had thought up a new episode for 'Trail of Five', but I haven't decided when it would appear in its storyline yet.

The episode's name is 'The First Digital Gate' and is basically about the digital gate opening up in Highton View Terrace. I've decided of mentioning Prime Team in the beginning of the new episode of 'Digital Defenders' named 'Long Awaited Return'.

I have thought up 'Revimon', who would be appear when Nasem is in the World of Darkness in 'Trail of Five'. I thought up and described 'Genamon'. She's juvenile form and is a replacement for Renamon for Serona after 'Trail of Five', but Genamon would have Renamon's memories and personality just as Serona remembered her.

Genamon's attacks are 'White Storm'; 'White Cloak', and 'White Guard'. Genamon's maturity form is 'Relesamon' and she's already described, as her attacks are 'White Fox Tail Ring' and 'Emerald Fire Blast'. Her migration form is 'Midnight Relesamon'.

I've thought up that far, and I haven't described Midnight Relesamon yet. I've decided to have the entity that spoke through Hikari in the first season of Digimon to have a true original form of a codelimin, one of which I named 'Lockosismon'.

I had thought up a new fandom codelimin story of mine and I named it 'Digital Disciples: The New Generation' that would happen after the whole 'Digital Disciples' and 'Shadow Gralen' storyline. I started working on 'Agumon X's Entrance' on the 3rd of June 2008, Tuesday.

It's episode 7 of 'Trail of Five'. On the 7th of June 2008, Saturday I thought up episode 50 for 'Shadow Gralen' named 'Whisper of Power'. I thought of eventually combining the storyline of both Digital Disciples and Shadow Gralen on some point on both stories' storylines.

When that happens, Shadow Gralen would be finished, but Digital Disciples would continue on. I'm thinking of the point when they head to Earth to protect it, but nothing is decided yet. When that happens, I was thinking of having the beginning of Shadow Gralen be where it changed.

And not where the story of the disciples actually begins. I thought up a new fandom codelimin of mine, which I first named 'Helminthomon' but then renamed it to 'Helminmon'. Take care, and assalamu alaikum...
