Oh well. The last week has been rather exciting. I have made some interesting purchases and new ideas have emerged as well as new opportunities.

The month of Rajab-ul-Asab has started. As per my promise to god, I'm embarking on my third year of fasting during this moth. I'm praying for a lot of things during the month of Ali. Moulana Ali, the wasi of Rasulullah (SAW) led a life dedicated to his lord. When mumineen say his name, their difficulties vanish. He was a man who believed in peace, in the welfare of men and in the faith of God. Like I said, I'm praying for a lot of things this month. I pray that with Moulana Ali's wasila, all my prayers will be granted.

And of course, fasting for one whole month coupled with my diet will allow me to lose weight and win my bet with certain people.

I bought Obama's book, "The Audacity of Hope". Its getting to be quite an interesting read and I'm glad I could contribute in a small way to his campaign!

Attended the NYJC Leadership Training Camp as a Facilitator on Friday. Stayed there till Saturday night when I had to unfortunately leave due to personal circumstances. It was turning out to be an amazing camp and I earned two nicknames, "Chief" and "Wet weather Programme". Haha. I'll try to post some pictures online when I get them. Met Ms Choong too! She came back to visit. Haven't seen her since she moved to Hwa Chong Institution. It was really great meeting her after so so long! We caught up a bit and promised to stay in touch. :)

I feel like I'm drifting away from some people that I used to be close to. I don't know, perhaps its just my imagination. Perhaps they don't need me as much as they used to. Perhaps I need to stop thinking so much. Perhaps I need to get some ice-cream.

Experimental Bio test tomorrow. Wish me luck!

And for those of you who visit and don't tag.......watch out.

I haven't blogged for quite a while. The reason is the same. The days have gone by faster than expected. They have been rather productive, however, production did not meet demand. Despite the pressures on my time, I have been rather satisfied and happy of late. Lot of work still remains to be done and many issues still remain at large but I'm confident that with Moula's presence in my heart things will always work out. :)

I have started special semester term 2 at NUS. People have always told me that special semester is crazy but I never really knew how crazy until I started to take Experimental Molecular Biology. Oh. My. God. It's driving me nuts! During normal semesters, there is only one lecture and one practical a week. During special sem, there are 2 lectures and 2 6-hour long practicals a week! And trust me, its really intensive. I have been hardly surviving and its just started! And we're gonna have our first CA next week!

I got my new handphone, finally! Mum got a voucher from Starhub and she gave it to me and I got my new HTC Touch for free! It's a really cool phone and I have just started exploring all the possibilities! :)

That's all for now.

Cya!
