Assalam o alaikum.
It is exam time yet again and I am feeling really excited about the exams and all the other fun stuff that I will get to do in this preparation leave inshaAllah. As always, I have been feeling more creative than ever since exam time has started! Alhamdolillah for this feeling. I went for swimming with my brother this Sunday and it was crazy fun. We stayed there for 2 hours and a lot of memories from our three-year old swimming pool sessions came back. It was pleasing to see that we could remember most of what was taught to us at that time and with a little practice, we can get back to our best performance from that time inshaAllah. I have been regularly going with my brother for badminton in the nearby park and although there is a lot of wind there, it is always fun to beat him and hurl the shuttlecock in all directions only to get him really angry at that. Who doesn't like winning anyways!
I was trying to read and understand Shikwa by Allama Iqbal 2 weeks back when our classes got off and we had holidays to prepare for a module exam. Just now, I got the chance of listening to an audio by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan in which he reads Iqbal's Shikwa. I went through half of it and although I couldnt understand much of it, it was still fun to listen to it alhamdolillah.
So yes, alhamdolillah feeling really blessed these days. Exam preparation days are the days to get close to ammi abbu, to bhai and to Allah taa'la. And to study for acing exams of course. Stargazing is a bit off these days but I still glance at Jupiter, Venus and Moon whenever I go out. Moon looked beautiful when it was full two days back and has started to fade from one side. What an amazing place has Allah taa'la made for us to live! SubhanAllah.
I read a friend's blog last night and felt inspired to start re-writing since this is what we people used to do back in 2012 when I joined twitter and made this blog. Fun time alhamdolillah. I was rejoicing many of the memories from that time last night. It made me happy. I was feeling nervous to write a blog after a long time, to be judged for my writing skills and english, but well, I just mustered up the courage to give it a go. Now don't you dare break my confidence!
Going off now only to write back in a few days inshaAllah. Assalam o alaikum.
