السلام عليكم
Alhamdulillah :)
harini unusual sket. i had english class as usual. only me n the other guy showed up. lol. where were people?! someone didn't inform us that it's a holiday today??? after 9.30, then people started showing up...even so, half of the class missing.
biase lah...hari kene hantar assignment kan. hee :D
after english class, i went to my normal port. nk study laahh kononnyeee...skali rolando datang. macam biase jugak lah kan. it was just outside of his class and he was missing it. nampak aku, dia pon mula dah la malas nk masuk kelas. we talked. usually about politics, social probs, comparative religion (he's a mexican atheist). today i know for sure he's racist and proudly he admitted that. he's for Apartheid and whatnot. he's against black skined people. hmm. i tried to extract out senses out of him but he holds to that principle stead fastedly. lupe plak..dia suruh aku check out on Biological Determinist and Rate of Crime in South Africa.
at 1, i moved to library (ditched him hohoho). dah semangat nk study nih! pastu plak...baru duduk seminit, buntut pon hangat lagi, mai plak sorang kawan aku dari english class ni. Harold. dialah kawan saye yg baru revert to Islam. As of today, dah 2/3 minggu dia jd seorang muslim. alhamdulillah :) reason aku pegi library was because i had a group meeting with Adele and Elke. supposedly anyway. then, Adele tak mai plak. Elke ade je...but she came 5 mins later. Harolad and I talked...seperti rolando dan laurent, saya tunjukkan pula video Maher Zain - Opened Your Eyes kat Harold. alhamdulillah...
he was totally digging it! he watched it silently and after it finished, he said "WOW...the vid almost made me cry. seriously...i really like this".
he was asking question on prayers and everything...he showed me videos which kind of prayers he should follow by and we decided on one. the 'normal' way, i guess. the one i'm familiar with. ikut org arab...kite mazhab syafiee kan. he was asking about sunni and syiah. i was like opp...nope2..i don't follow that. but whatever it is, turn back to the quran..(isk..i just stared into space in front of me which happened to be in the direction of this person's face..suddenly he looked up. aduh kantoi...jangan laah dia pikir aku ni pervert plak T.T). so anyway, yeah, he was glad he could speak to someone that understands him. huhu....i'm trying my best! yg baik sumenye datang dari Allah T.T alhamdulillah3 Allah bagi chance camni kat saye utk selami Islam dgn lebih mendalam. cammane kite nk tolong someone sedangkan kite pon jahil, kan. i still said to him that he has to find someone yg betul2 bleh lead dia. dia kate, kawan yg dia ada skarang ni mcm not very helpful..or kawan dia ni is not a practicing muslim. he wants to go the mosque and he enjoyed spending this money kat satu kedai di devon ni where they sell the quran, tasbih, kufi (kepiah), jubah and whatnot. :) mashaAllah.
he's and african american by the way. negro. dia ckp, started questioning about religion and that's when he found islam. his dad is a preacher and the family are practicing christians. he hasn't told his family yet about this big news and he's going to wait for a year. inshaAllah, i hope that's for the best. he tried judaism but didn't work out for him..i guess, in a way, we ourselves too always question about our religion spontaneously and miraculously, we always find the answers and the truths. that hasn't only increased our level of faith, but ultimately we stick to Islam (and we know why!). some of the reasons why some people started to seek and rethink about their religion is when they cant find answers from what they believe....wallahualam. syukurlah kite dilahirkan sebagai muslim. then we swaped emails and phone numbers. together we'll help our brother yeah! inshaAllah.
so at 2 (already late for psychology class) terserempak dgn Ramona (classmate from psych) tgk2, dia ckp kelas cancel. best dann tak best. fenat ajah saya tunggu 3 jam utk kelas tu. balik rumah lagi best. but i didnt regret a bit because already i met so many of my friends and had fruitful conversations. and dgn ramona ni plak, she's just a sweetheart. she's a german (of im not mistaken) and we just started talking. pecaye tak dlm kelas kami tak penah cakap pon. not even a word. smile2 je. sbb kawan2 college ni kawan2 hye2 bye2 je. lepas kelas, memasing blah lah..balik rumah ke ape ke..buat hal memasing. sbb majority bdk2 sini drive n bawak kerete sendiri. saye je ayah masih pick up. lol. :)))) suke nyusahkan ayah.
speaking to ramona was fun. she's an art major which i never knew, then we talked3, she showed he art work, kebetulan dia bawak camera dia n i saw them..nicee. and also, we talked about the psych assignment yg cegu bagi, then presentation..it was so 'normal'...it was as if i was talking to another malay friend of mine. :D then, cammane tah she started to suggest a study group..dia nk study sesame for psych exam we have on monday. then, we switched numbers :)...
today was unusual for me because i gave out my numbers to 3 different people i never really knew of before. lol. yeah. it's a little sad that i'm excited over this matter. hehe. lemme be! most of the days i'd be doing my work, all alone by the corner, falling asleep or something. but today has been great. that's why i had the urge to tell you. plus, dah lame i didnt write on you, kan...dah bersarang~ (i had problem accessing this blog...i thought someone hacked it lol. alhamdulillah dah oke skarang).
esok, ade meeting OHO club (Oakton Helping Others) then, Rifka (my Haitian muslim friend) and I are going to fetch the bus together to over to des plaines (another Oakton's campus) sbb ade Inferfaith discussion ni at 6pm - 8pm. best :)) jumaat, inshaAllah datang kolej utk study ngan ramona walaupon takde kelas. huhu. inshaAllah khair..
