HELLO BLOGGING WORLD!!
Sorry for the leave of absence!
Sorry for the leave of absence!
I havent found the ermm motivation to blog, until right now, at 1am in the morning.
IKR? What a totally motivating time to blog.
So, I just came back from an eventful night with the boyzxz, celebrating Eugene's 19th!
Since, most of us were broke( mostly just me), I was thankful that we were eating at an inexpensive place! cue good food at cheap rates!!
HAHAH sounds like a hotel!
I had LAKSA with chicken and cockles! My ultimate favourite! Cant live without laksa!
And durians.
And durians.

Then, we got ice cream and LEPAk-ed around, taking photos after photos.

I remember those days where town was like a different country to me! I did not know my way around and kept getting lost.
My knowledge of town is still not GOOD, but it IS BETTER than before!
All the shortcuts, the lepak corners, the good bargains, praying in fitting rooms when there is no time. Good memories.
HAHAH I really do not know the relevance of the above but yeah.
Since I am still jobless, mostly by choice and pure laziness, the only substantial thing I am doing is APEX!

I really like it!
The children and the mentors!
And of course, re-attending madrasah! Its great to rekindle my interest in Islamic knowledge.
Though lessons may get a little dry and I sometimes do not agree with what the astatizahs say or make us do, lessons have been interesting.
They could scrape the "do a skit for your project" thing, cus, HELLO, we are not 10 anymore.
We could also move on to different topics of focus! Eg. I have been studying TALAK for the past 2 sem and before that in sec4 and I feel that most of it is a repetition.
If I wanted a kursus rumah tangga, I would have signed up for one.
Furthermore, this ustazah outrightly said that malays are bodoh in math, we have the bodoh in math genes, and that we cannot celebrate chingay cus its a chinese thing.
1. Malays are not bodoh in math! We are just malas. Math needs lots of practice and because we are malas, we are bodoh in math. WOW.
FYI, I LOVE MATH! FOREVERZXZX
2. Although the origin of Chingay was purely due to religious reasons, the one that we have in Singapore is NOT!
The one in Singapore includes participation from all walks of lives, even foreigners. It just so happened that the same term is used to name it.
Besides, the word, "Chingay" was coined from a chinese term, meaning decorated float.
No part of the celebration or the name has got to do with religion! It is no different from celebrating racial harmony day or national day!
Some may say that, as long as the origin was wrong to begin with, you cant celebrate it cus it was sort of DERIVED from a religion.
Well, then, don't eat your double cheese burgers or your Kentucky Fried Chicken, cus the origins of Macs and KFCs were initially not halal.
IN MY OPINION, there is no harm in participating or watching the Chingay Parade, so long as your intention is to enjoy the performance! Its all about the niat.
But, I guess, to each his own. And This is purely my opinion.
Wow, that was a really long and "totally irrelevant to this post" rant.
Ill end off this post with a few photos! c:

Malay swim outing!


Halal food ftw!
OKAY, goodnight people c:
