After a few weeks of exile, I'm finally back to blogging.

No, blogger hasn't been any trouble for me unlike for some other bloggers. Nothing a force refresh can't handle. Actually, while we're at it, this nifty little function, Force Refresh, fix just about any HTML errors we come across in a website. No, Force Refresh issn't some Jedi power (though it does sound like it).

Force Refresh is when you press CTRL and F5 at the same time to reload the page. What it does is unlike a normal refresh, where it reloads only the page, Force Refresh reloads the page's cookies too. What's cookies you may ask? Google is your best friend, I won't bother you with all these techspeak.

Reason for my apparent exile? Purely down to laziness and current mood of being uninspired to write. Yes, get that. Me. Uninspired to write. Not something you see everyday. But hey, it happens at times.

Ramadhan 1430H is here and alhamdulillah, all praises to Him for allowing us to experience this Ramadhan because for all we know, we might not be able to get to experience the next one.

What brings me joy most in Ramadhan is watching my little siblings fast especially my little brother, who is 8 years old (Primary 2). Yes, the kids in my family are taught to fast at a very young age. I remembered I fasted half-day when I was in nursery but from kindergarten onwards, I was already fasting full-time.

Its always good to instill these aspects into kids at a young age. In the essence of Tarbiyah, or upbringing (wooo~ Faan must be proud of me if he reads this), kids at a young age should be exposed to these Islamic aspects because it is from there that they are often moulded to become who they are in the future. That is the time to hardwire inside them these aspects.

But then again, some of you may ask, what of those people who are exposed to the Islamic doctrine, but yet they do not fast, they go clubbing, they drink and all that stuffs.

First that come to my mind is, you said that they are exposed to it, meaning that to a certain degree, they have received education on Islamic aspects, be it through weekend classes or or the like. Alhamdulillah, the message was sent to them but why did they not heed it?

Because it is their choice. It is as simple as that. Islam is not forceful. Its aspects cannot be forced into one. If the message is sent across, but the receiver chooses to turn the other cheek, it is his choice to do so. The job of the messenger is done.

But I digress.

It warms my heart to see my little brother running around the house as per normal, even though his fasting. Granted, he didn't went to school on Monday because he complained of stomachache but other than that, he's his usual self. Running around the house, making loads of noise, just being the bundle of power-packed energy that he is. I caught him drinking from his water bottle yesterday, though from his reaction I think he really didn't mean it. Oh well, kids will be kids eh?



I've been having headaches for the past few days and am having a minor pimple outbreak. Stressed perhaps? Yes. You heard that right again. Sufyan. Stressed. Well, thats a first time for everything.

I think I'm going to be sick. Temperature's fluctuating right now, either borderline or sick. Having abit of flu also and not to mention my recurring leg injuries. Seriously, this time round I'm really contemplating surgery. But 60% of recovery is still just not good enough for me. Nazif said wait till NS and if your injury is bad enough, they'll send you for surgery all expenses covered. Sounds nice, maybe I can get free Lasik surgery too?

Physically, I'm not doing too well but I'm never one to put too much on my physical being. Emotionally, I'm doing fine too but right now, I baaddddddlllyyy missing *someone. And I'm sure she's missing me too. Kie dah shh.

As for mentally, I'm holding great. There are of course cracks here and there within my mental barrier but I'm not too worried by it. It won't break again anytime soon, though if it were to break, I hope it's on the 27th of Ramadhan. Just nice. Or just about any odd numbered day within the last 10 days of Ramadhan. But still 27 sounds nice.

Well, better get back to studying my Maths now. Shouldn't be too distracted by Football Manager (my Everton team is through to Europa Final even without Arteta, Cahill and Yobo) or the XBOX 360.

Oh and by the way. *You are never a distraction for me. Never has been, never will be.
So please continue to shine *your Radiance on me((:
