PMS

No no, this is not Pre-Menstrual Syndrome... It's actually Perhimpunan Musim Sejuk, organised by MSM (Majlis Syura Muslimun)

Webpage

Hmm, how wonderful. A lot of prgorammes to go, a lot of places to visit. First this one, then to Dublin for PUISI... huhu, sounds nice doesn't it?

Oh yeah, did I tell you how much it cost? Nah, cost doesn't really matter. It only matters when you don't have the money. Like right now. I'm supposed to go to York tomorrow. But guess what? I've only got GBP27.51 in my wallet, and the trip costs about 20pounds!! Isk isk... how am I suppose to go to York??? It's gonna be nice if I can.

But, wealth comes from Allah. If He wants, He will give it to us. Thinking again, if this is one way that I'll be closer to Him by seeing the greatness of His creation, wealth is something I can give away...

So, York anyone??

"Spend your wealth for the cause of Allah, and make not your hands contribute to your destruction; and do good. Lo! Allah loves those who are beneficent" Al-Baqarah 2:195

Upin dan Ipin

I was browsing through youtube for the upcoming PUISI 2007 just now. Then I saw this link to a cartoon, Malaysian made called Upin dan Ipin. It's about two brothers, I believe they are twins, going through Ramadhan for the first time... huhu, I still remember my first Ramadhan...




I was seven when I started fasting. Everyday, my mom would ask me if I want to fast the next day. And as enthusiastic as I am, I said YES! So, days begin. My mom said I cannot eat nor drink.. Isk isk, laparnye... and very x10 thirsty. So, everytime I take my wudhu', I took a sip (em... more like a gulp I think) of the water.. TAP WATER!! Huhu, darurat la... Then I said to myself, "Tu bukan minum, terminum la... amek wudhu basah..." Hehe, I was so in denial...

Then there was once, my mom was cooking iftar, using kerisik. I love kerisik. Sangat sangat suke. So, my first trip to the kitchen, I saw it. Then I took a pinch. I left. 5 minutes later, I came in again. Huhu. Then, I was so scared that my mom would find out, I took the packet out, went outside, hid behind my car and ate. I can't remember whether I ate the whole packet. But the thing is, my mom realised that her kerisik is missing (there was another packet.. how can she??) Then she asked me.. "Munirah, ade amek kerisik x??" Then I replied.. "Mane ade, kan puase, mane bleh makan.." Huhu, I was such a big fat lair. Seriously! But, clearlyI was the guilty one. Isk isk, kantoi!! My mom put in me in a trial. I still remember sitting on the floor, with my mom, my big sis and bro on the sofa. Wah!! I was so scared. My mom was so angry. She wasn't angry about me not fasting, but about me lying to her... huhu... bongok nye anak ibu ni mase tu..

So, later that night, my mom asked again, "Nak pose x?" And I said, "X nak la.." hehe, bukan nak insaf, x pose terus.. huhu.

Watching the video... reminded me of how "tough" Ramadhan is. Now I'm older and more matured, Ramadhan is no longer about abstinence from food and drinks, but from things that la lagha, sinful, and such. A tazkirah given by Kak Ain Kpm yesterday (they had iftar at our home, me cooking...ngeh3) touched on that Ramadhan is the month to cleanse our system, from viruses, trojans and bugs of all sorts. Coz for the last 11 months, nafsu n syaitan have been planting those in our system..

So,use this month fully to defrag, reformat and install very x10 strong anti virus, anti trojans and pesticides(eh, xde kaitan.)

YOSH!! 23 days more!! Quick!!

Leeds...

Alhamdulillah... This is my third day in Leeds and Subhanallah, such a wonderful place, with lots of people.. and lots of Muslims... It was such a nice feeling going to the Green Room (like a surau on campus) as the feeling of ukhuwwah.. Wah!! best nye!!

B4 that, we met a new friend from Trinidad n Tobago.. My, she had 3 big bags with her, an two small ones... I'm wondering if we had not been there to help her, who's going to?? Huhu, luckily she booked the Meet and Greet service... an she was fine.. Hope to see her again on campus. She's doing broadcasting.

Then our seniors picked us up... Mahal gile derang charge... 25pounds per person... Guess how much it costs in total?? But, thanx to them, we weren't lost...TAPI!! Amek advantage ke atas budak baru blaja yang tgh kaya raya... cis!

Then, yesterday... went shopping like hell. Beli bantal, pinggan mangkuk and stuffs. It totaled up to more than 50 pounds! Imagine spending more than rm300 within one day, on yourself! Mahalnye dok sengsorang...ini pon food juz for one day..

Well, my housemates and I are going shopping again today... and we have to buy some more stuffs... One day punye food pon dah cost about 7pounds... Sekali beli abes rm50... abes duit ku...

Luckily my dad gave me extra cash... an I have my Russian roubles.. Fuh!


Well, that's it for today. Hope things goes well.. Hope I can cope with things around here... Insya-allah..So I believe what Allah s.w.t says,

"Allah does not burden any human being with a responsibility heavier than he can bear." (Al-Baqarah 2:286)

Still In The Making (without holes)

Huhu, if I postpone my post to another day.. it would be exactly a month since my last post... But, I don't want to do that, or to have that. Hehe, I have tonnes of things to tell, fromthe 3D convention in CUCMS, the daurah I had last two weeks which talked about dakwah and futur (ouch!) and the things that went on this hectic month. To top it all, my flight is yet to be confirmed, and I am suppose to be flying off tomorrow.. I repeat, TOMORROW!

Ok, the reason that pushed me to really write this time was a call from my friend last night.. or should I say really really early in the morning? Who on earth calls another person at 12midnight? Cheaper rate eh?? No no, I am not mad, just shocked, and flattered ;)

Thanx to the friend who called... So sorry that my flight is postponed... Bebudak tu dah plan nak g esok dah..Seb baik kt baik n x tipu derang... keh3..

Huhu, I really want to write about what I got from the 3D convention, a really nice sharing moments with doctors, aspiring ones and real ones.. and also the daurah... But I have to wait first coz really need to settle my shopping spree.. hehe

Hmm... just finished reading "Fikah Luar Negara" Now I want to start with Asas-Asas Islam.. Hav been ying to get a hold of this book and NOW, I Shall begin!


"Read, with the name of YOUR LORD who has created (everything)..."
