Two weeks..
I haven’t had the chance to update in a couple weeks, I guess a lot has happened and a lot is happening. I'm currently in still in Corvallis. I've been here since the 11th staying with Umm AbdulQudoos while her husband is away no an internship. InshaAllah I am leaving this Sunday.
Alhamdulilah the stay has been nice, and I think I have learned a lot from it. Me and Umm AbdulQudoos get along really well, and we have a lot in common. We both like the same things, both enjoy the same things, both good at the same things, and both neglect the same things. That was one of the reasons that my mom didn’t want me to go, she said that both of us together we would go crazy. But alhamdulilah it's been nice.
I couldn’t come online for a while since the computer here wasn’t working, but I'd go over to the neighbors, who are muslim, and use their computer almost daily. Just to check my emails, come on msn for a bit and stuff.. Alhamdulilah we have internet again at home so I'm online a lot more.
It was actually kinda nice how much some of the brothers here were willing to help us out when the computer wasn’t working. Before he left Abu AbdulQudoos had asked his friend Majid to fix the computer for us, but they couldn’t get it done before he left. Anyways, we got the computer to Majid and he said that it needed parts that would cost around $300-$500 so Majid, Louay, and Amu Abu Idris told us to pick which of their computers we wanted and we could have it until ours is fixed. Ofcourse we declined and said we wouldn’t, so they put together a computer from some of the parts from the old one and some extra parts they had and gave it to us to use till Abu AbdulQudoos gets back :D.
Anyways, I spend most of my time playing with AbdulQudoos, studying, chillin with Umm Abdul Qudoos, and visiting with people that come over.
I love AbdulQudoos, mashaAllah hes the most adorablest thing ever lol. I have my camera so inshaAllah maybe I'll take pics.. anyways. He's just starting to walk now so he's going all over the place mashaAllah. Doesn't really talk but sometimes he'll say 'mayyyaaaam" its sooo cute mashaAllah. One thing that’s annoying though is the lack of sleep I've been getting because of him but alhamdulilah. :D
I'm in one of my depressed moods lol. I've actually gotten used to it, its like a pattern now so alhamdulilah. In a way its not effecting me so much this times sine I'm so busy and stuff.
I'm trying to finish up as much of my school work as I can now since the computer at home is busted as well. Ever since my uncle left and I knew for a fact I wasn’t going to go with him I've had like an emotional/mental block when it came to my schoolwork. I just cant seem to get it done. But khair, I pretty much finished off two classes, have another one and some to go for this semester, after that it should be a lot easier inshaAllah
