Me: Hey.
Brett: I thought you said she wasn’t coming? Ahh and I thought this was gonna be a good day..

Brett: You’re not gonna finish that are you? That snickers’ as big as your arm.
Me: You’re not gonna get any of this now.
Brett: No, I mean length-wise..

Brett: How do you put this on?

Me: Does it not fit, Brett? Is it too small for you?

Brett: It’s actually too big, thank you very much. Sit down, Farah.

‘Say, Farah. Your name’s pretty long. It obviously means something, right?’

‘Well, Farah Haseenah is my name, Binti means daughter of and Mohd Jais is my dad.’

‘Ah, that makes sense.’

‘Farah means happy and Haseenah..haha..well, Haseenah means pretty.’

‘It suits you.’

…

‘This is what I was talking about..well, you see here, it goes both ways.’

‘Oh. Right. Haha.’

‘I thought you would have noticed that, my dear.’

‘Farah, we weren’t around Tuesday and Wednesday, but happy birthday.’ -Rasmus.
The Rasmus-Brett dynamic is so strong one even represents the other to wish birthdays. And both decided to wear shorts on a cold, rainy day.

This is so accurate it hurts.

I found out today what hurt meant.

To see dreams crushed, hopes burnt, and the world as we know it painted black.

I am crying because I am angry. I am exaggerating because I am young and hopeful.

So this is what Allah meant when He said He will test us to find out which ones are sincere. When He said we will not be left saying we believe without being tested.

Dear God, I know I am being tested and it hurts. Dear God help me through this.

‘Really, Farah? Two Snickers bars? You’ve really got a sweet tooth.’ said Rasmus.

I’m now on my third.
Ah, I love being young.

Me: *punching rachel’s stomach* did you know if you do this 20-30 times a day you can get a six pack.
Him: what are you doing?
Rach: farah’s trying to give me a six pack.
Him: can you do mine so i don’t have to work out?
Me: you really don’t need one.
…
Him: *doing work outside studio* it’s so crammed in there. There’s no space for me to squeeze in.
Me: yeah, no space for you.
Him: …oh, i get it. *points to a narrow space between tables* hey faz, i saved some space for you here, you wanna squeeze in?

Yesterday.

Tue, 23 Apr 2013 11:13:11 +0100

If yesterday was a graph, it would probably be y=cos 2x .

I woke up to a photo of Ustaz Haron Din on facebook and drowned in a sea of memories. I hope the old fella’s doing well wherever he is (#inikalilah).

Then Mimi came in and reminded me we had to get our Tech results. So we went. When I saw the ‘D’ on my paper, my first thought was ‘Ah, serves you right didi’. I was pissed, yeah, mostly at myself and just wanted to forget it but the others insisted I talk to Matt about it. So I did, and he was like, ‘Ok, give a couple of minutes’ and ten minutes later he was like, ‘Yeah, well your mark hasn’t changed’. Which pissed me off even more.

After that debacle, I went to pick up Izzati’s replacement rice cooker from the post office. I was also thinking of comfort food options and finally settled on falafel. When I got to the falafel place, there was this old lady there with a baby buying a million fruit juices. Falafel guy was chatting with her in Arabic, and kept apologising to me for the wait. After she left I ordered 8 falafels and he gave me 9. He also kept speaking to me in Arabic. I decided then this falafel shop will be my favourite place in Rusholme.

Then I got home and planned to drown myself in falafel while watching 50/50. I got on facebook first though and saw this week-old unread message with a youtube link from Iqbal. (Sidenote: Iqbal Atan is my high school friend. Recently he started sharing videos with me because we both support PAS openly and he maybe takes this as an opportunity to bond or whatever. Oh well.) I usually ignore his videos but decided to try this one.

It was a talk from an Imam in Cardiff. He was talking about Rasulullah and it was beautiful. What hit me the most was ‘Be thankful with what Allah has given us’. Ah, did the tears come down then.

Then Nina came in and we talked about weird stuff. I (finally) confessed to Izzati about her rice cooker and gave her the new one. Went to Alan Gilbert and for some reason decided to talk to Kamal Haziq when I saw him (Sidenote: Kamal Haziq is not really a friend, more an acquaintance. He is also an otai usrah.)

Me: Assalamualaikum, chem. Apa khabar kau?

Kamal: (Squinting) Ha, aku camnilah. (Puts on glasses) Oh, kau buat apa kat sini?

Awh, man. Awkward doesn’t begin to describe it. I honestly don’t know what came over me. It was just that kind of day I guess.

At 10pm there was a roar from somewhere. United had won the league. That basically lifted my mood to no end.

Because now it’s my turn to be a fighter.

That’s Akmal Khadir for you.

Thu, 18 Apr 2013 20:54:49 +0100

“What was that, Farah?”

“Nah, I was just saying that I’m gonna go back home and work. I’m not gonna work here.”

“Can I come with you?”

My poor little heart died.

I didn’t know Lisa Hannigan writes such happy songs. Although I miss her and Damien Rice, I do so love this sunny, cheerful Lisa.
