Sallams from Cairo!

So its been roughly 2 weeks since I've started my new chapter here on this Land of the Prophets. So far I guess its going ok, I mean Alhamdulilah I can't complain. Life here is tough, everyday there is a test from HIM, and they make me stronger...

Classes are going quite well except for physiology 2, I can'y quite understand what the lecturer is teaching. He jumps around too much, but Insya-Allah I'll find a way to fix it...

Today Sarah and I had a long journey. We both wanted to change our traveler's check. Here there are 3 places, 2 in Tahrir and one at 4 Season's Hotel which is really close to Cairo University. Since both of us didn't know the way to go to 4 Seasons we decided to go to Tahrir. We road the LRT, then we walked............for a very long time....so we arrived...to find out that the bank's system has problems...so we went to another bank...

There we were excited because some of our friends were there. Our hopes were crashed when that bank's system was out too. So we both ended up in walking to 4 seasons..there alhamdulilah we got to change our checks...

Letme tell you, we walked 2 hours!! 2 hours and last2 we ended up going to the nearest place near the university!! But you want to know what the hikmah is?? After Sarah and I changed our checks some of our friends tried to do so at 4 Seasons but they couldn't! The bank's system was offline!! When I knew, I was soo grateful...

That's what I like about Egypt, here we get tested everyday..and we learn so much from life..

But, I do miss all my friends in Malaysia...I miss you guys tons..so to treat this I went to my old e-mails and started reading them..you know..to relive the memories...then I found this e-mail sent by a special friend. That friend sent a song with the e-mail...so I dedicate this song to all my friends in Malaysia...

Di sini kita pernah bertemu
Mencari warna seindah pelangi
Ketika kau menghulurkan tanganmu
Membawaku ke daerah yang baru

Dan hidupku kini ceria...

Kini dengarkanlah
Dendangan lagu tanda ingatanku
Kepadamu teman
Agar ikatan ukhuwah kan
Bersimpul padu

Kenangan bersamamu
Takkan ku lupa
Walau badai datang melanda
Walau bercerai jasad dan nyawa

Mengapa kita ditemukan
Dan akhirnya kita dipisahkan
Munkinkah menguji kesetiaan
Kejujuran dan kemanisan iman
Tuhan berikan daku kekuatan

Kini dengarkanlah
Dendangan lagu tanda ingatanku
Kepadamu teman
Agar ikatan ukhuwah kan
Bersimpul padu

Mungkinkah kita terlupa
Tuhan ada janjinya
Bertemu berpisah kita
Ada rahmat dan kasihnya
Andai ini ujian
Terangilah kamar kesabaran
Pergilah derita hadirlah cahaya

Kini dengarkanlah
Dendangan lagu tanda ingatanku
Kepadamu teman
Agar ikatan ukhuwah kan
Bersimpul padu

Kini dengarkanlah
Dendangan lagu tanda ingatanku
Kepadamu teman
Agar ikatan ukhuwah kan
Bersimpul padu

Untuk selamanya...
