A strike that can not be forgotten.

April 21, 2008

It seems every thing in this life make us negative. We can sacrifice with our principals for really low value goals. Imagining for a while all people with no principals and accepting bad level of life makes me frustrated. BUT “el 5air fe ommaty ela yom el deen”.

From time to time, some people appear, objecting on wrongs and fight for their rights and principals whatever were the results. Our history have many people like saad za3′lol we 3orabi.

Nowadays, history repeat itself, saying these people still exist among us. I am proud, I did a strike. I fought for my rights and other people rights, whatever were the results.

I will back for a week, to a subject XXX with Dr YYY.

Dr YYY: “Ento mesh 3arfeen ad ayh ana te3bt 3shan aleem el slides deh lel mada. El slides deh efffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffort 3azeem. Brought and modified from 6 books. Tab3an mesh yenfa3 teshtero 6 books, we 3shan keda ana karart, abee3 el slides”.

Studnets: huuh, no one talks. All are surprised. “neshtri, we slides kaman. LoOl”.

Day and night students object. Doctor insist, this is EFFORT i am not a merchant.

Dr YYY: A large percentage should register with money for the slides, so that i can publish it. We tab3an hanshtri chapter chapter, ommal ayh ya3y.

Students: Mesh shareen.

Tab3an mawkeef zay el zeft le awel mara bynkon feeh. mmmmmmm.

Dr YYY: Midterm is next 5ames. Chapter1 and Chapter2.

Students: Dr, hanzaker menen. no references.

DR YYY: Men el 6 books. We law 3aizeen el slides. lazem 3adad kebeer ye register abl el midterm for slides.

Students: Lebsna we el 7amd lelah.

If you are in our place what will u do?? Please think for a while.

Before midterm with 4 days, i started to talk with my friends that in all cases we are loser and no better solution than strike.

Freinds: Strike, enta 3aiz tekn3ny enn feeh banat mesh hay5osho el emt7an. Ya ebny sebak.

Tab3an kont masdom, le2en e7na ta7t ders el doctor in all cases. A strike is better.

After that i talk to a TA that i trust. He said, the best thing is to inform el dean. law mesh 3shnko, 3shan el dof3at elly ba3doko we “el 3ear elly maysebsh yedosh”.

I started to talk with my friend mido, about going to the dean. As usual he is positive, we ma5no2 men el docotor fa7t. Bas tab3an fekret el strike kanet mattet.

Before exam with 2 days. I talked with one of my best colleges. I asked here some questions and the answers was not expected:

Me: May u buy the sildes tommorow, under this stress we r in??

She: la2. i wont do that.

She: but What is ur opinon about astrike.

Me: 3an do5ol el emt7an??

She: yeah

Me: el fekra fe dem3′y men 4 days. bas 3adad el moshge3een not much. el problem in girls.

She, me, She, me, She, me……….. we el fekra bad2et tekbar fe dem3′y.

Tomorrows was the compilers exam. The exam about to finish. People went out from el ka3a. Main people that i depends on all out. WoW. Not expected. A girl starts to talk, “7ad yetl3 yetkelm”, i said “all the speakers went away…OoPs”.

And suddenly, a brave girl starts to move, blocked the door, “please no one leave, we should talk”. I started to get some encourage and trying to get connected with the strike leadder.

Another girl hold up the mic, and we started to talk. “Hellooo, we should not go, we are in a bad status, we should make a strike on exam, we need supporters, how many person with US?”

Thanks God, greater than 80 CS students hold up their hands, and some others sure were objecting. The other strike leaders reached. We confirmed the idea explaining its obvious reasons and we started to talk about going all to office dean to stop this mahzala.

We all moved together. We were like an army and all people was wondering, “feeh ayh?!!!”.

There is some events happens starting from our movement until the class strike leaders got a meet immediately with the dean. I removed them to get more focus.

The Dean: Any one talks, do not worry, feeh ayh.

A leader: doctor., …eelley by7sal, ….lablabla …..we el mahzala ….lablab laaa…..

Dean, we, Dean, we………….lablalblaa.

The Dean: ………………………………………….. Forget what the dean said, You can watch the results announced by one of the strike leaders.

One issue, I realized yesterday, It seems men far7ety be nateygt el strike, i hurry, and went faster from the dean room, and that give me a big space to tell the class the news, while the reminder of the strike leaders was coming behind me from dean room. And that put me a little in the final big picture. I really apologize for them for this mistake.

I cut many details of the strike, as the important for me in all this post is to say just one statement. Be positive. One thing makes me so happy is that while i was thinking in making a strike, there were a group of boys who have same thinking and already made a step, and another group of girls was pushing girls toward a strike. Really you feel good when you fight for your rights.

NOTE: IF u r reading my post, It become a MUST to leave a comment.

TU

April 4, 2008

TU?!!! what is this?? To You?? or what???!!

Ok stop guessing, it means “Thank You”.

“Thank You”, from where you got this name? An event at FCIS was with this name, and i read the event name for long time as 2u.

Anyway, TU for whom………Simply, for many people who have effects on changing many points at my behavior, character and future.

I will back 6 years. I still remember these days when i was in first year in secondary school. I was lost. No goals, no dreams. I was out of religion line 300 grade. I was not smart at all. Actually, may be i was stupid scientifically. I liked “el 7efz so much” and it was my way to get grades.

What happens? “Sob7an mo3′ir el a7wal”….With the end of my first year, I imagined for a while myself sitting at coffees all the time. No job, No family, No anything, no life at all. This was the last time i was failure person. I started to fix my self scientifically. Thanks god, after 4 years, i managed to be a little good boy. I was able to think/analysis/solve.

Many things helps me to change a little like solving math. But the most important effect comes from ACM activity, i will talk later much about it. I am not trying to say i became a super guy. I just want to say, i succeeded to change much on my way in thinking.

About these reminder two years (3rd, 4th year in faculty), it was my second change. I started to first time realize difference between a teenager and a full grown person. Day after day, I grown more. I became more close to Allah. At this phase, I started to change other issues at myself (NOT totally completed yet, reminder bugs will be solved) specially my behavior and the way i deal with people. Actually, i am preparing my self to be TA in my faculty and husband/father in the near future. Final thing, with start of 4th year in faculty,I felt that i reached an important break point at my life.

In fact, from the post name, i am not here to talk about myself, I am here to say “Thank You”. Sure thanks for Allah in the first place for every thing. Simply, I am here to say “Thank you” for every person who helps me to make such big change at my life.

Actually, each persons i want to thank, not necessary helps me directly. I used to watch, see and learns.

OK, after this long introduction, how the reminder of this post will go??!!!. Ok, simply, i will mention names, and may be i sit a comment beside the name about how this persons helps me.

I do not like to mention explicit names. So, I have designed a name schema for that. Each name will be 2-3 capital letters. First character is M(Male) or F(Female). Second letter will be first character in person first name. Third letter will be first character in person middle name (IF i remember it or do not want to mention it). E.g. I am Mostafa Saad –> MMS.

MAM: The first impact on me. He is my antim till now. We are friends from 10 years. He was so smart. And indirectly, I was jealous and tried to be good like him.

MMM: Ebn 5alty. I will never forget his advice to enter my current faculty. He helps me much in programming. First person to learn me how to think about a problem need to be programmed.

MMR: This doctor learns me how to be patient.

MAA: My first C++ tutor. I can not forget his advice to join ACM.

MMW: This is wahab. My highest Ideal. The smartest person that i deal with till now. I need article with 10 pages to say big TU for him.

MHD: My first ACM team leader. I learned from him much. He is really expertise. One final thing, this guy push me toward Allah implicitly. I always happy to watch him while he is praying. I feel a strong relation between him and Allah.

These are the main effectors at my life scientifically. fortunately no girls. But here other persons that helps me to get changed.

FZ: Implicitly/Explicitly She helps me in refining some wrong judgments about girls. She always supports me with strong opinions when i need that. Really i got a fantastic sister.

FM: I liked here behavior and how she is changeable from state to better state. Also watching here, makes me discover that still there are very good girls that you wish always to have one of them as your wife, sister or mother. One of reasons that i am a one of first ranked students at my class.

FM: Before i getting a little close from here, i thought she is so complicated girl. BUT i discovered that simply she is fata motadyna. She always among girls only, but when works requires here to work with boys, she is good communicator. I started to stop shape judgment. Judge people when you deal with them.

FS: She is one of my old colleges and one of the persons that i liked so much. We have a situation in my first year in the faculty. She emailed me that a lecture was canceled and i was about to leave home. I was happy that i did not go to faculty as no lectures. Second day, i saw her, i went to thank here. Without feeling, for first time, madeet edy 3shan aslem 3alyha, 2ltly sorry, mesh ba7eb aslem 3ala welad. OoOps, i embarrassed a little. But this was my first and last time to shake a girl. Thx FS.

FK: She is one of my old colleges and one of the persons that i liked so much. The best memories in my life. Implicitly she pushed me toward my future and refining my goals in life.

when ever i remembers others, I will add them.

Final note: 2u = reverse(u2) = reverse( TU ). :D
