funny reunions.
2006-07-13, 11:38 a.m.

As to date, I am still constantly lost around the kuliyyah of engineering. It takes me about 7-10 minutes of roaming around before finding my classes.
But, I do enjoy lunch dates very much since all the days I’ve had them so far, I got to reunite with friends I’ve been missing SO much!
The most memorable little encounter had to be the one at Babush (a café) with Lubna and Afiq… and it wasn’t even planned!
I spotted Lubna and started hugging her endlessly.
Then when we started mentioning Afiq, he appeared out of nowhere before our eyes. (voila!)
*grins*
The funny thing was Lubna and Afiq has never seen each other face-to-face.
Now they have!
Hehehe…

I also met Anne, Jasmine, Ezanee (bumped into him loads of time, and he helped me find one of my classes too, heh), Jazlan, Intan, Amiza, Amy, Hany Mysara, Rezza, Syaaban, Najmuddin, etc…
It feels good to see familiar faces and so far, I hardly failed to say “Hi!” to people.
I’m just excited to see everyone =)

I have a lecturer who likes to lock latecomers out of class.
Yes, he LOCKS DOORS.
This isn’t something new of uni lecturers… BUT it’s a problem for people who’re (at the moment) always lost around her kuliyyah.
*prays*
Ya Allah, please, please, please… let me get all my classes right and reach them on time next week!

Btw, I already have homework for the weekend – engineering drawing. I am using Adnan’s drawing set this semester (you’re a sweetheart, thank you, thank you!).
When I first requested it from him, I had NO idea that his set is as fantastic and complete as it is. I am still in awe over them.
Forgive my enthusiasm ;p

This weekend, my family will be having a kenduri arwah for my late Atuk.
It’s meant for close relatives and friends.
So, I’m off home to help out.

It’s been almost a month since he’s gone… but it still feels surreal.
My mom called yesterday to tell me that I should contact grandma more often cos lately she’s been talking about him quite a lot.
The things he used to do.
The things he used to say.
So, I called my grandma to talk about small stuff a few times yesterday.
I know she misses him…
All of us miss him.
SO much.

I downloaded this song by Luther Vandross from Ira’s (or Faruqi’s) laptop the other day – “Dance with my father”.
And each time my playlist hits it, I cry.
Now, I know what it feels like to lose someone so special.
Now, I know what a broken heart is like.
Because mine is…
but it’s beautifully broken.
And I think it’s okay to let it stay that way right now…

…
I miss you, Atuk.
I always will…
*hugs in heart*
