Ramadhan

my stay here, during the last summer break.. was only until one night of Ramadhan.. i remember having this conversation with a young man.. jual beli man.. a few days before ramadhan..

"are you going back to your country or are you going to spend ramadhan here?" he asked.

"am going back"

"which is better, where is nicer - ramadhan here or ramadhan in your country"

i smiled, and said .. "emm.. ramadhan here is nice, but.. in my country, i get to spend ramadhan with my family"

he nodded some light nods. said.. "diblomasia"

"hah?"

"diblomasia"

signaled a friend with a shared stare "diplomacy, i think" she whispered.

oh yes young man, i am a libra-n. a birth-star-sign happened to be described as "diplomatic" and balanced. but.. whether it is true or not.,depends. that day, it happened to be true. other days, may not be. haha

i think i am excited to spend ramadhan here, soon! with all the hot weather and traffic. :p

tapi macam siuk. the first ramadhan here was yr 1 (no fun because i was a freshie and being here was new to me) 2nd yr, emm.. around 10 days of ramadhan.. but i was still unpacked.. just got back from home.

last year, all i got to see and experience was the unbelievable traffic, extremely hard to get taxi. the beautiful ramadhan lantern all over the area. and the first night of ramadhan, and it was beautiful.... meriah, with all the sounds of ayat al kareemah from the mosques, with the lines of people walking to and from the mosques, with all the light, with all the badil, with all the happy noises, with all the joy and happy and friendly faces people showed..

i definitely am looking forward to it! =)
