Idul Adha in America!

I'm really glad that I make this decision. I was actually planning to still go to school and miss idul adha. But then, mr. Lynch cancel the calculus test so then I decided to take day off from school due to the religious holiday. I suppose to be have 3 test actually and when I come back it's the short day and end of grading period, so that's why I'm a bit stressfull. So yeah, I went with Sarah, my moslem friend at school, she is indian whose her parents came from Guyana. Well she's proud being Indian though not guyanese. Anyway, after shalat in the recreation center, the mosque just rent the place to held the id prayer, we went to the slaughter house because Sarah's mom do sacrifice sheep. It's really fun and new experience how the moslem can live in America. We went back from slaughter house after Sarah's mom visited some of her relatives to give meat to them. Then I had dinner in her house, they made curry and rice from the sheep meat. When I go home, they even gave me meat from their sacrifation. Alhamdulillahirabbil alamin, I still can celebrate idul adha with the moslem people in Florida :D

Poem Collection from 7 Habit Highly Effective Teens from Sean Covey

#1: Who am I?  I am your constant companion. I am your greatest helper or heaviest burden. I will push you onward or drag you down to failure. I am completely at your command. Half the things you do you might just as  well turn over to me and I will be able to do  them quickly and correctly. I am easily managed--you must merely be firm with me. Show me exactly how you  want something done and after a few lessons  I will do it automatically. I am the  servant of all great individuals and, alas, of  all failures, as well. Those who are great I have made great. Those who are failures, I have made failures. I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine plus the intelligence of a human. You may run me for a profit or run me for ruin--it makes no difference to me. Take me, train me, be firm with me,  and I will place the world at your feet. Be easy with me and I will destroy you. Who am I? I am habit #2: Man in the Mirr...

Excerpts from Teman Imaji

Kotatsu: Kopi atau Susu K: "Menurut Mas, ya, lebih enak mana. Lampu merah yang ada penghitung mundurnya. Atau yang tidak? B: "Hmm.. Dengan penghitung mundur. Supaya sambil menunggu, bisa melakukan hal yang lain. Kalau waktunya sudah dekat, bisa bersiap dan bergegas." Kalau kau? K: "Tanpa penghitung mundur. Menunggu jadi seru saat kita tak tahu kapan akan berakhir. Kita akan menghargai setiap detik penantian." B: "Masa?" K: " Iya. Nilai sesuatu lebih berharga saat kita belum memilikinya. Atau, sudah tak memilikinya lagi." B: "Kan, lebih enak kalau tahu semua kenyataan. Apa adanya," K: "Kadang tak tahu, lebih baik dari tau. Lebih baik daripada tau sesuatu tapi tak jujur. Atau tau setengah-setengah, tapi ujungnya kita salah menduga. Atau yang jujur, tapi terlalu pahit." B: "Saya menyimak" K: " Allah itu Mahacanggih. Nggak semua hal dikasih tau ke kita. Karena kita belum siap tau kenyataannya...
