.1 looong week.

"Assalamualaikum
Kaifa Ha Lu Kum?"

It's been one long week since I last blog. You got to admit it, u missed me lots, rite? Harhar...I knew it, I've been missed! Wooohoooo! Yipppeee! Yaahooo!!

So let me have the honour to sum up the whole of this week in this one pathetic entry...

Monday - Tuesday: As per usual, 'no-life me' spend the whole day at home doing the things I do best ----> sleeping, napping, rolling on the bed, nagging, whining, helping mum with the cooking, reading and visiting other's blogs. Some people might find it hard to just sit at home, doing practically nothing but you guys should know how different I am from the normal bunch of people...I LOVE to be bored, and doing nothing at home.

Wednesday: Went to school, held a meeting for the muslimahs of MSS. As expected, the turn-out for the meeting was pathetic. We decided in the meeting that our yearly 'Muslimah Night' will be converted to a 'Muslimah Day'. Will be having a picnic n bbq at East Coast Park, on 11 December 04'. MSS girls, mark that date down on your calender okay, and make yourself present for the event. After the meeting, me and Masy had to find birthday presents for 2 birthday boys, Farhan and Alfian. For Farhan, with his personality, it's damn easy finding him a present, we got him a leather cover organizer, he will thank us for this. As for Alfian, the sweet 'punk-rock' guy, it was TOUGH finding him the perfect gift, so we did not get him any. Some other days lar...

Thursday: Back in school again! For yet another meeting with the excos. Got our namecards today and I must say it looks nice. *clap,clap* for the Publication team and their mentor, Azri. After the meeting, went to town to break fast with Hakim, Azri, Wok, Shaf, Nas, Nadia, Masy and Hafiz. Reached Far East Plaza, exactly at 6.50pm, got a drink at 7-11 to break fast than made our way to the Royal Plaza Hotel, to do our maghrib. Nice mussolah. I must really 'salute' the management of the hotel for arranging a space for a 'surau' in the hotel, it was not neccessary that they had one but they did had one..good rite? So after prayers, we made our way to Cahaya. I had honeydew chicken noodle and fried wanton. Yummy! It's been long since I last had them, cause you know lar how I hate going to town. So after dinner, got Alfian his birthday present, shades from 77th Street. Than we made our way to Lucky Plaza, the boys had their pool session. Hafiz offered to teach me the game but I rejected his offer. Tak senonoh lah, 'membontot' in front of the pool table. So not me. Hehehe.

Friday: Went to the Geylang bazaar with mum, my aunt and her children, including, Natasha! My first time, going 'jalan-jalan' with Tasha ever since she grew to be a toddler. Woaaahh...this gerl, full of energy, and she blabbers non-stop about shoes lar, baju lar, air lar...cute!!!! She really reminds me of 'Stitch' the character from 'Lilo and Stitch'. Cute, mischievous and packed with energy. I wanted to get myself the abaaya style long dress which only costs $20 but alas...it was no longer there when I came. Damn! Should have just bought it the other time. Mum bought kebab from this stoopid Malay guy who was munching away while taking our order and doing our kebabs. Sick! We did not notice that he was munching away till we had our order taken. Usually, I don't buy from stalls, where I witness the stall-holder not fasting, like this guy who sells burger at the front of Kassim Mosque and the kebab guy from Geylang. No respect for oneself and the month of Ramadhan.

Yesterday: Was at home. Tried my very best to memorize surah Al-Mulk. Damn tough, since I was doing it last minute. Went over to grandma's place, with mum. At grandma's, they were painting their house light blue...nice! Made me jealous, cause no one's painting my house this year.

Today: Went to Pergas for my oral. Had only memorized 13% of the surah. Yes, that bad! So as I sat in front of Ustazah Holdiyah, I confessed to her that I had only memorized sentences 1 to 4. She was surprised but anyhow, I read and I left the place. No surprise, if I get an 'F'. Will try harder next year. And next year, in year 4, insya'allah it will be Surah As-Sajdah. Maybe, I said maybe, I will try to start memorizing from this year. I got one tip from a madrasah student on memorizing the Al-Quran. She said, rule number 1, you must not make it a habit to listen to the radio and any form of music.

That's my update for you. Will update again, some other day, when I have the mood, the time and the enthusiasm. *toodles!*

Tazkirah Ramadhan
Hadis

Abu Said Al Khudri r.a meriwayatkan bahawa Rasulullah .s.aw. bersabda: `Setiap hari siang dan malam pada bulan Ramadhan, Allah Taala membebaskan begitu banyak sekali roh daripada api neraka. Dan pada setiap orang Islam pada setiap hari siang dan malam doanya pasti akan diterima.`
