Today is one of the most important day in Muslim Calendar. Today, 17 Ramadhan, is Nuzul Al-Quran. It was on this date(on the muslim calendar of course), that the first verse of the Al-Quran, Al-Iqra(means read), was brought down by Angel Gabriel to Muhammad, who was seeking enlightment in Hira' Cave. Well, i can tell you the whole story, but its better you find it out from the Net.
Brought the new Foo Fighters album, Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace today. The result was shocking. I thought the album was typical of Foo Fighters, full of hard rock, punk and grunge numbers. But this latest album shows the softer, balladier side of their songs. Some of them are acoustic, and some jazz(Foo Fighters plays jazz). It brings out the new side of Foo Fighters. I kinda like it and its to show that they are flexible in every music. But I prefer the hard side of Foo Fighters, during their Everlong days(Everlong is my favourite song of all time).
17 Ramadhan means 13 more days before Lebaran. This the the most laziest year i've been into cuz we have done nothing to anticipate the big day. Most of the things are nt being cleaned yet and my mum hasnt even start baking. Guess must buy kuih outside already...
Throw in ur comments here!!

Day 16
May i present to you..... Geylang is now known as World's Hell...
Apart from the Lorongs of Whores, the weather there is so unbearable. Me, bro and mum went there on Tuesday Afternoon and we just couldnt stand straight standing under the hot sun. Its so hot, even i cannot feel the fan and air con.
This year, the prices for baju kurong have been dropping greatly. And the best thing is most of the designs this year have improved, unlike last year, where i almost cried to look for a baju kurong that is cheap and nice. The ladies baju kurong however, are getting less clothes(what i found are mostly the old kebaya, the ones with corsets and sleeveless). Adding more sexuality to the baju kurong i think.
Im trying to avoid buka-ing in Geylang right now, but it seems there are more food courts in Geylang right now to cater to the many people who are shopping around Geylang now. But I prefer buka at Al-Majlis at Arab Street. Nice grilled chicken + rice and sheesha..... Think goin to buy the sheesha smoker right now...

Day 14
Sorry peeps. Have not been updating on my blog nowadays as i've lose a bit of interest to let you know the updates thats happening in my thoughts. Well, since u want to know let me update briefly on my thoughts nwadays.
Feeling proud as ever as a United fan nowadays, due to finding my fellow fans and where do they hang out. Its nice to know that whenever the team is down, there are always people who will share your sentiments( apart from my family members of cuz, they are fellow United die hard maniacs, including my mom). By the way, the Devils had their fifth str8 victory in all competition, beating the Rent Boys 2-0 at Old Trafford with Tevez making the headlines of the week( apart from Moan-rinho of cuz) and Saha on his second goal of the season. If they win Coventry today, it will be the sixth and it will kickstart my prediction of winning 23 straight league matches on the trot.
Just bought my Raya clothes today. This year it will be all silvery(paired with my bro). Wanted a sky blue shirt initially(nothing related to Citeh), but weirdly its hard to find the same thing as my bro as the baju kurung vendors often, and incidentally, would not like me and my bro to have the same colour. Just gave one vendor a cold shoulder just now.
Me: Bang, i want two sets of baju kurong, this blue one bang. One M and the other L...
Vendor: Ok, i see if its available....
After 10 mins waiting under the hot Geylang weather
Vendor: (Comes with one blue and one green) I have blue for the L one. The M one you take green.
Me: Dun want laa bang. Last year wear green already. Do u have stocks for the purple one? Or the silver one?
Vendor: No laa.... U take the green and ur bro take the blue.... Can have colourful Hari Raya. The rest no stock.
Me: No..... U dun have pair, i dun wanna buy. Why is it so difficult to tell you that i want the same colour (walks off)
Ended up buying a pair at the next shop and paying 90 bucks. But unluckily, Tanjong Katong Complex's bazaar offered one set for 25 bucks. Shite!!! If i know i should have gone there and save money... Goin to come back there to buy the Red baju kurung... Its so nice... Can wear for 2nd day raya and of cuz, for Friday Prayers.
Have not been lucky in love nowadays. To tell you straightforwardly, i think i want to start a relationship again with a 17-year old girl. But im having 2nd thoughts as i think im not ready yet and sometimes she's not suitable for me. And i think she's beginning to think that im quite a difficult character for her... Shite... Maybe its not the time but let time tell........

Day 9
Last night, while getting the attention of one of my Net friends(a girl, coincidentally), i put up this wordy advertistment
"Come and help out Salihin Foundation. No money is needed. Just donate your love and care towards the organisation and help raise funds to keep the organisation happy. Donations are refundable. But if the organisation is happy, no donations are refundable"
Just a laugh for my bored mind. I dunno what is coming into me nowadays. It seems like day by day, my mood is getting worse. Adding to that is my empty stomach and the surprisingly toasting and glazing weather makes it worse.
Yesterday almost gave up fasting cause my body is so hot, u can even cook an egg on it. Luckily, i went to consume two bottles of air badak to keep my body cold.
Not looking forward to work today. I just wanna go out and shop!!!

Day 6
Its so ironic that i didnt spend any cash while buzzing around Geylang, Ct Hall and Bugis yesterday. Tot of spending some cash after selling my 15-watt Marshall amp(it was a white elephant in my room, gotta get rid of it to get rid of the dust), but then my spirit of shopping wasnt there. Many shopkeepers called out to me to check their shop for sales in Penin, but guess Ramadhan helped me to save my cash.
It was a toasted day yesterday. Went for simulation test at SCDF HQ yesterday. The place is so deserted and has no trees. And i thought it was 36 degrees Celcius yesterday!! But i managed 2 walk from Airport Road str8 to Comfort Delgro Driving Centre. And didnt even feel the hunger till the walk in Geylang. No wonder Geylang has lots of sins! (the shopping and the 'foreign workers'!!)
Had a craving for Pizza yesterday. Thought of ordering Canadian 2 for 1 pizza but since only the 4 of us ate pizzas(Dad has gout and Mum hates cheese), therefore ordered Pizza Hut yesterday. Ordered Rosemary Delight and an additional chicken wings( for mum). Felt full and made me very sleepy today.
Btw, met a new friend. A friend of an new friend. And how i love her!! hahaha.. (because she loves to talk!!)
