Ramadan

Ramadan started two days ago, and currently on our third day.

This would be my first experience fasting overseas, alone and lonely... Right. So far, I survived two days of almost 18 hours of no food and drink. It was not as bad as I thought it would be, I guess. Hopefully, I am not a stick by the end of this holy month.

I had my first sahur and sungkei alone. People did invite me to come over to their house to sahur and sungkei together but being me, I passed up that opportunity. I think it's too much of a hassle for me to move around and sleep at another person's house. I also would like to avoid any awkwardness because I like doing things at my own pace. I'll take up that offer some other day. I would love to tarawih in a jumaah. However, for now, I'm fine on my own.

(I would like to avoid any sort of human interaction because I am emo liddattt.)

Ohhh, I have so much hope for this Ramadan.

One of them is to fill this with more colors.

Selamat menghidupkan Ramadan. :)

Dog

On my way home last night, I was attacked by a dog!

A bit exaggerated maybe but the dog did pounce on me from behind. I stood still, unable to process what had happened in a blink of an eye, or none in my case, maybe.

It happened so sudden that I couldn't react more to it. First, I saw a dog running towards me and I panicked a bit but still managed to play it cool. I saw the owner walking beside him so I thought this was a normal dog. However, the fact that it had no leash on was the sole reason I panicked.

When the dog passed by me, I was relieved. A woman was shouting at the dog from an opened door at a house nearby. I thought the dog would listen and stop running so freely and boy, was I wrong...

I have only taken a few steps before I felt a momentum from behind. I stopped walking and felt that heavy body on my back. I didn't even turn my head to see what's happening and just stood there, waiting for miracles to happen. -.-

A few seconds later, the dog came down from me and ran back towards the house, I guess. I didn't turn around and just walked straight to my house. The owner kept on apologizing for the dog's behaviour even though I was already miles away.

I reached home safely and processed what had happened.
And that was my first 'interaction' with a dog ever.

Hello, German Shepherd! It was nice of you to pounce on me...

Date

I went out on a date on Monday!

It was great and fun, having sushi and all before Ramadan starts ... all by myself!

After an unfortunate incident a few weeks ago, I decided that I would go eat sushi by myself, just because. It has been a while and since the sushi place is quite near to my house, I guess, why not?

I brought along a ZipLoc bag just in case I couldn't finish whatever I ordered because knowing me, I don't eat that much. Heheh. I could've just bought sushi from somewhere but a single serving of sushi is so much more expensive than going on an unlimited supply of sushi buffet...

However, I think I got enough worth of money on that lunch date with myself. I had:

a roll (6 pieces) of spicy crispy white tuna

a piece of spicy crispy salmon sushi

a piece of seaweed salad sushi

2 pieces of white tuna sushi

2 pieces of salmon teriyaki

2 pieces of prawn tempura

a hand roll of crisy white tuna

a scoop of strawberry ice cream

a scoop of vanilla ice cream

Not bad for one person, I think! I finished everything. B)

Home Alone Day 1

I am known to be such a lazy bum. I'd rather stay in bed all day long than going out sometimes. Sigh.

On my first day alone at home, I had a few things on my list to cross off which are:

1. go to Scotiabank and change home address
2. deposit the money that I've withdrawn the other day
3. visit the donation box and drop off the unused boots
4. go to the bookstore to check out books

I managed to cross off every single one except number two because I forgot to bring the money... Uh, I'll do it some other day then.

I went to the bookstore and managed to bother Snowbell. HEHE. He was under the table, on top of some boxes, trying to sleep. Being me, I tried to pat his head and feet and he welcomed my gesture by giving me presents to take home!

Ohhhh, and on my way home from school, I saw three other cats!
Cats bring me happiness. :3

Home alone

The title says it all. I'm all by myself for the next two months and that's that.

It's a mixed feeling. I'm scared and at the same time, excited. I'll be all alone, with no one else but I can do anything I want, whatever and however, and no one will come to judge.

But uhh, I don't like this.

I know I'm being a brat and all, but I just had to. I'm trying so hard to understand but I can't help myself. I want to whine but I can't and so, I'm upset.

I don't like this. T_T
