The wreckage called 'me'

One look at me, I wonder if Sherlock will be able to make a deduction. I must have looked like a wreck when I walked home in my white coat today. With a dull, exhausted face, plaster of Paris powder on my sleeves, remnants of latex gloves on my hands, front pocket bulging from the contents, from a block of wax to x-ray films, teeth and what not.

When I came back to my room, I saw a glimpse of books I haven't had the time to read yet. I need to get myself sorted. As long as this week is not over, I don't think I can even rest. 

Lately I went to sleep with anxiety which causes me to not be able to sleep well. I keep on waking up and I always woke with my heart beating fast, as if I just went for a run. I am also starting to have false hopelessness, headaches, heavy feeling in my heart when I woke up. Well, that's what my husband called it. I was telling him my troubles with sleeping and other things that I felt. He told me to go to a psychiatrist because I might be depressed but I don't want to because I'm afraid if I AM diagnosed as depressed, the medical record might affect me later when I have to apply for a job after school. 

To be honest, I'm not really sure about that but I'm just taking safety measures. 

I think there's a lot of things that's faulty in me. My personality, my mind, my heart. I wonder if, like a machine, I would suddenly blow up when I went on an overdrive. 

I don't know. 

And I don't even know what point I am trying to make here. 

I wonder if there will be any part of me that I will be proud of. As for now, I don't think there's any.

My dad's turn

because ALLAH is with me.... Earlier today i was shocked by a text message sent to me from one of my aunt from my dad's side. "Why didn't you tell me that you've become a Muslim? Sampai hati tak bagitau, bukan perkara tak baik pun." This raised a question mark in my head. Who told her? She's a Muslim by the way. Then onwards, after a few exchanging text messages, i finally come to a realization. I have to tell my dad before he found out from someone else. That would be worst. So, i started to type on my cellphone. "Daddy, i've become a Muslim. Ever since i'm at KTT. I am telling you via sms so that you will be clear of why i am doing this and so that you will not hear this from other people who might exaggerate the story. I didn't become a Muslim because i have a boyfriend. Not because i was influenced by my friends. And also not because i wanted to join PAS. But because i have taken interest in Islam ever since i'm at...

Mummy

Finally, after 1 and a half years(maybe more), the truth is out. I confessed to my mum about me being a Muslim. When I first told her, she was upset and angry. She asked me: Who influenced you into being one? Did u have a boyfriend? Who converted you? Did you know that it’s a big sin to convert when you are already baptized?! I was silent all the while she was bombarding me with her questions but Alhamdulillah, I feel calm and unmoved. I didn’t feel guilty at all. So I told her, Mummy, nobody forced me to become one. No, that is not the reason I become a Muslim. Do you notice that I’ve become more closer to you since past one and a half years?  And my mum said yes, you’ve become better but still… Then I said, it is because of Islam that I changed from my old ways. I used to yell at you but since I became a Muslim, I learned how to be better, to appreciate my parents better. And then she said something I expected she would say. No wonder you didn’t pass your ...

A revert's thoughts on LGBTQ

First of all, what does LGBTQ stands for?  L = lesbian G = gay B = bisexual T = transgender Q = queer I am pretty sure everyone's familiar with the first 4 sexual orientation but what about the last one? Queers are people who are not sure of their own sexual identity.  So what does it mean to belong to the 5 sexual orientation? Let's just assume I am secretly a lesbian. So how would you react to that?  Do you judge me?  Or do you accept me as I am? I got married with a man and have 2 kids as a result of the marriage, there's nothing wrong with that isn't it? I am doing nothing wrong despite having an against the fitrah inclination towards the same sex.  It will only become wrong if they chose to act on their sexual orientation.  They claim that the sexual orientation is a result of nature and nothing can be done to change it. Like in a transgender's case, they think that "God made a mistake and switched their ge...
