pply my final xanga entry..movin to myspace.com/poolking06

schools been a lot easier now tht 2 colleges are out the way. i bombed the physics sat II's, gettin results like next monday. speakin of physics, ill be kickin mercers ass, with the help of some of my classmates before im done with tht class. other classes, cept english, seem pretty easy.

just had the last PERFECT saturday. things werent lookin too good the nite before..rabia in NY, nirvana not havin an excuse and her parents goin to annapolis mall, me not havin an excuse but ofcourse things still turned out well

stayed for the last math class, ate some pop tarts and hung out till we (me,abhi,nirv) decided to go to hunt valley mall. had a snowball fight where i owned abhi...lol..and got nirv a couple of times. shopped for a little bit and got a CHIPOTLE...sooo goood

then went bak to umbc to say "goodbye" to the umbc pplz and headed up for some ping pong, where i was completely off. if me n abhi play for like a week nonstop, we'll b unstoppable. also went down to subway to see khush in action. chilled there and talked with her and her boss. her job seemz kinda fun, pretty soon she'll be "pushing buttons" at the register. after hearing some "unexpected" and somewhat disturbing comments...i finally went home.

couple of hours later, went out to see SAW II for the 3rd time!! with some friends and hung out...overall a very veryy fun day..this is wat senior year is supposed to be like. 3 day weekends, going out and actually doing stuff. i guess im back to apps n my boring life till next week

bored so ill update i guess

schools been kinda okay i guess. i actually like my classes, especially a-dayz. got 1 B in english n hopefully the rest a's but i really dont care anymore. i feel more tired with no badminton.

banquet was fun, food wasnt tht good but there was still cake. applegate starts his little speech with sometihn unexpected. he says "faraz and nirvana" and i get scared thinkin eric put him upto something, but it ended up bein somethin about how our team is smart and that when he tried adding up nirvana n my sat scores, he got somethin larger than the national deficit..(def. an applegate joke). congrats to the 5 mvp's (so close). the seniors got applegate a nice plaque, which he really deserved.

celebrated khush's bday last week at the mall and ruby tuesdays which was soo packed but the food was good. missed like 2 movie timings but ended up watching SAW 2, which is like the greatest thriller ever, esp. loved the ending. it was definitely worth stayin for the movie..btw owings mills movie theatre sux ass...never goin there again

sat classes hav been fun..mixin it up with arundel n columbia. got some more massages and had some CHIPOTLE today..soo good. me n abhi were the first customers and took teh food bak to umbc where we saw hitch..very good movie. congrats to rabia for finishing her chipotle on her first try, i could tell she loved it. only 1 class left!!so we mite go down to annapolis mall and chill for the last time

im gonna basically have no life for the next 3 weeks. y does it seem like everything is happenin so dam fast n tht theres nothin to look forward to anymore. somethings are inevitable..no matter how much u try to deny it

been too lazy to update...last couple of months hav been crazyyy

schools been tough...started off bad in almost every class but slowly pulling it up. maybe 4 aps wasnt such a good idea. college apps are a mess...very stressful and im soooo behind. sat 2's in december, need all the help i can get.

badmintons going greatt. 11-0 so far as a team and me n ryan are 10-1. must win every game as team and individual to win division and get a spot for counties. future tough matches....franklin next wednesday... dulaney next friday with the division on teh line.

saturdays have been GREAT. only thing i look forward to throughout the week. me abhishek rabia n nirv usually just do random things or hang out at the mall.

abhishek- high on sugar, bounces up and down a lot (him and his car)

nirvana- very very dizzy, easy to make fun of, loves fraps/coffee

rabia- gives random fobs a reason to live (wat time is it?)

faraz- enjoys riding shotgun in abhishek's car...

khushbu- it hurts!!! (had to include this somewhere)

random note: carousels are very dangerous, causes extreme headaches and dizziness, kids should not be allowed to ride that thing

trip to college park was great...but we did nothing relating to the college itself. tour guide for a good 2 minutes and ran off. just watched others eat bagels, CHIPOTLE and played DDR, ping pong and pool. then movies, mall, etc. Did abhisheks bday the next day...went bowling. and on saturday...PING PONG...10 intense games tht tested both of us physically and mentally...felt like i was high off sugar (despite fasting)...or maybe ping pong adrenaline...w/e it was...it was freaky and turned me into abhishek for the day. sry to those tht me n abhishek freaked out...

now this week, its hc game and the dance and baking cookies and setting up for dance and spirit week and sat class and 4 day weekend and prayers and khushs bday and pep rally...gotta figure out somethin for the dance and the after party...cant wait.

due to popular demand (khush)...im updatin...only 3 weeks till school starts and only ONE more day of swimming left!! for the final exam tmrw, we hav to swim a whole mile, which means 72 laps across the pool, meaning ill fail tht. atleast ill finally get to sleep in the mornings now

there was a qiyam(sleepover) at the mosque last friday where we ate pizza and played football/basketball all nite long till 6. afterwards, me muhammed, zayd and omar go to ihop. for all of u that havent gone to ihop, NEVER go to ihop. i ended up spending $6 for 1 1/2 pancakes and some nasty orange juice....thx to zayd.

lately ive been studyin for sat II math, which is 10 times harder compared to regular sat math. i still havent decided if i should take sat's again, but im tryin to enjoy the rest of summer. bad news...no car for school next year...which means i either walk back from badminton or not play...

this saturday, im goin to myrtle beach (SC) or Ocean city which should be really fun. im hopin we go to myrtle beach, even tough its an 8 hr drive, cuz its alwayz fun goin to new places. anywayz, if anybodyz in the mood for tennis or six flags...IM me

not much goin on but this summer is actually turnin out well.

got ap scores about a week ago and didnt do too well on history...maybe cuz i did no work the whole year. on calc...i got a 5!!!!which got me soo pumped...passin an exam with a 27% passin rate

swimmings gettin a little better but i think its safe to say that calculus is definitely easier. despite checkin out all the summer readin books, ive yet to get past the first 10 pages of any of them...so i'll turn to one of my best school friends...sparknotes.

heres a joke i got in an email...its a little long and corny...but if ur bored...go rite ahead

Newton-The Father of Physics commited suicide,

you know why.

Here are the reasons.

Once he came to India and He watched a few Tamil

movies and had his head spinning. He was convinced that all his logics and laws in physics were just a huge pile of junk and apologised for everything he had done.

In the movie of Rajanikanth, Newton was confused to

such an extent that he went paranoid. Here are a few scenes:

1) Rajanikanth has a Brain Tumor which, according to

the doctors can't be cured and his death is imminent. In one of the fights, our great Rajanikanth is shot in the head. To everybody's surprise, the bullet passes through his ears taking away the tumor along with it and he is cured. Long Live Rajanikanth.

2) In one of the movies, Rajanikanth is confronted with 3 gangsters. Rajanikanth has a gun but unfortunately only one bullet. Guess what he does....... He holds a knife in his hand and throws at the middle gangster...& shoots the bullet towards the knife. The knife cuts the bullet into 2 pieces and kills both the gangsters on each side of the middle gangster & the knife kills the middle one.

3) Rajanikanth gets to know that a villain is on the other side of a very high wall. So high that Rajanikanth can't jump even if he tries like one of those superman techniques that our heroes normally use. Rajanikanth has to desperately kill the villain because its the climax.

(Newton dada is smiling since it is virtually impossible)..

Rajanikanth suddenly pulls two guns from his pocket

(Probably a backup).

He throws one gun in the air and when the gun has

reached the height of the wall, he shoots at the trigger of the first gun in air, with his second gun

Now the first gun fires off and the villain is dead.

This was too much for our Newton to take and he was

Completely shaken and he decided to go back. But he happened to see a movie for one last time and thought that at least one movie will follow his theory of physics. The whole movie goes fine and Newton is happy that all in the world hasn't changed.

Oops not so fast. The Climax finally arrives. Rajanikanth is chased by a gangster. Rajanikanth has a revolver but he has no bullets in it. Guess what he does. Nah not even in your remotest imaginations. He waits for the gangster to shoot. As soon as the gangster shoots, Rajanikanth opens the bullet compartment of his revolver and catches the bullet. Then, he closes the bullet compartment and fires his gun.

Bang... And the gangster dies....

Newton commits Suicide.

seems like i alwayz update whenever i go to 6 flags...so its time to update again...this time I go with ahmed sidra and zayd. ofcourse things didnt go the way theyre supposed to. since the park opens at 10:30, we decided the night before tht i would pik everyone up at 8:30 and go to ihop for breakfast, and go to the park from there. however, i wake up at 8:45, screwin everythin up. luckily zayd n ahmed overslept but we had sidra waitin for a while.

to save time, we went to mcdonalds, where i realized i didnt bring the sprite can with the 6 flags coupon, so me n zayd go to superfresh to try and find cans with coupons, but there are none there. next we go to safeway, cuz theyre supposed to sell season passes there, but the booth is closed and they dont have the cans as well. then we go bak to my house to get the can and after 30 mins of diggin through trash....we didnt find it. so we just left.

when we get there, after strategic plannin to get the 4 of us in the cheapest way possible, we find out tht dam lady ripped zayd off on a dam technicality and i was bout smack tht bi*** across the face, but zayd didnt seem to care cuz he's loaded anywayz.

ofcourse 2 face had to be closed but we did do almost everyroller coaster including superman twice, since it had no lines. we also got keychain pictures, finally somethin on my keychain tht isnt a key. then after 6 hrs of coasters and the waterpark, we go to hoyt's cinema for batman begins. seemed like a good movie but nobody was really in the mood. i couldnt concentrate at all and missed most of the good scenes.

my excuse for my parents was tht ahmed n zayd are takin me out bowlin and a movie cuz of my sat scores, which is the only reason they let me go after the whole umbc incident. but even though my mom saw my keychains...which happened to hav 9th in it...she didnt question me too much.

now im off to chicago for maybe 2 weeks for my cousin's weddin. zayd, first appointment, july 5th, relax but get in study mode. rest of u hav fun bein bored and good luck on ur ap scores and report cards

went to six flags....again. since mohammed wasnt able to go, i took my little brother to have an even number of ppl. so it was me fazle farhaan and momen. we first stopped by at checkers for breakfast to save some money and then went reached 6 flags around 12. we rode in fazle new mazda6 which still had the new car smell...i luv tht smell

when we got there we go on the tea cup ride because of fazles constant begging. then we took a step up by goin on the wild one...my bros face was priceless, he thought he was gonna fall out the ride. after the tower of doom, we met up with nirvana and kels. then we entered gotham city for jokers jinx, where we had to sneak my bro on...and then penguins water ride. then, it starts to rain, which causes superman to hav difficulties so we hav to settle with batwing instead.

we concluded with some boat water ride and bumper cars and finally left the park. when we're about to leave, we find out that my bro threw away fazles $8 souvineer bottle. so i have to go bak in the park, escorted by a cop, to find a bottle in the trash can...

then ofcourse we balled at the mosque for 4 hrs which wore me out even more. next week im supposed to go another 2 times to 6 flags, which i dont thnk i can handle. atleast somethin goods happenin in summer

wat a lonnng tiring day...i get 3 hrs of sleep and im in the mood of goin to six flags...so i quickly tell my mom to sign a note, lettin me leave at 10:40. when i get to school, i find eric and tell him tht the plan for six flags is back on...after the team sports exam, me david eric n hussein leave and get there like at 11:30.

rite when we arrive at the park, i could tell the park is empty and it should be a good day for some coasters. we decided to start out easy by goin on two face twice, wild one twice, tower of doom and jokers jynx twice, all in teh first hour. after the appetizers, we get to superman and batwing, which is definitly worth the 2 mins of waiting in line (eric's face is priceless on rollercoasters). the 96 degree weather got to me and we got wet on the boat ride thingy, then did DDR in the arcade.finally we finished off with minderaser and roar to end our day at six flags. overall we finished out in less than 4 hrs compared to the usual 10 hr trip. since me eric n hussein hav season passes....we'll pply go like everyother week.

rite after i get bak...i hav to leave for the DSA dinner. i was expecting about 20 ppl to show up and when i get there....its me nida and imran...Nida's dad has 4 tables reserved for about 25 ppl, and theres only 3 ppl there...thx a lot DSA members...u got nida really upset...especially since shes goin to pakistan in two dayz and we're not seein her for a while. eventually mohsin faiza and like 6 of her friends/sister show up and we hav an awesome buffet.

im sooo tired and my legs are sore. only two dayz of skool left(one final exam) then a summer of boredom
