May peace be upon all of you.
2 days of pure excitement, fun, maturity and being the youngest. The Retreat was super awesome!!!
We discussed loads and loads of things. Things that I have always wanted to bring up to the authorities, things that I've been talking to myself about, things that at people don't quite care about at times. But mostly, we were talking about youths. Malay youths. You could never imagine how ecstatic I was. Cause I could so relate to the issues!!
I think I talked A LOT during the two days. I was making a lot of noise and crappy suggestions. Okay, at least I thought they were crappy. Everyone was asking me to shut up and keep quiet. OKAY. I was exaggerating. And I called the underclass the most horrible name I could ever think of. No wait. It wasn't the worst. I called someone else a much more horrible name.
ANYWAY, the brothers and sisters there welcomed me with open arms and there were very caring and loving. I swear this is the best youth related activity I have ever been to. Perhaps its because the participants are matured with alot of experience under their belt and they have seen IT. I mean, I have a very matured mind, which sometimes can get too matured, and maybe I wanna grow up. Seriously speaking, I don't like being called a kid. I wanna grow up cause I want to see my dreams take place. I want to see what kind of an adult I become.
So with my commitment being back to Ghufran and the community, I have to change my lifestyle. So I'm quitting my job this Sunday. I can't bear to be in an environment where people are so different from me.
Suprisingly, Ustaz Fairuz is also Ajo's friend and he said I am exactly like Ajo. HAHA. Laugh. I SAID LAUGH. Yeah. I don't know if it was a compliment or not. But let's all be positive and take it as a compliment.
Wokays, I need to go. Watch CSI and then sleep. Work tml. Bleargh.
Peace.
