I think it's my pig out day...

Not every month, but most of them I notice I pig out a couple days before my break from praying. Well today's fast has been really hard, I started getting hungry around 10 and super thirsty. I also noticed that I was more hungry last night. So if I wasn't fasting I have a feeling I would be shoving everything in site down my throat, lol. Can;t wait for maghrib. FOOODDDDDD lol. onl 2.5mr hrs elhamdolallah

First Day of School

Today was the first day of my second year of school. I had 3 classes today. (I was late for 2 out of the three, one cuz I left late. The other see below.) I don't have my lab tomorrow!! Which is great because I don't have to get up at 630-7 to get there on time. My fist class is Calc. II at ten, fun fun... oops I lied... last semester schedule. First is Physics II, then Calc. II (I didn't fail, last sem. was all I not II lol) Then I have a nice 2 hour break where I will go to the library and hang with all my muslim friends that avoid the union like the plague during ramadan. (Kinda funny actually.) Then back to my last class which is Linear Algebra. So far what I've heard of this class... well let's just say I should run away screaming with my tail between my legs.

OK now to rant:
PARKING!!! I HATE YOU!!! I parked way out back for my first class, managed to find a nice spot for my second, and the third was a HUGE pain in the butt. OK people... I know you're not all rocket scientist, but parking SPOTS are made for a reason!! If they're not there DON"T INVENT ONE!!! I literally was working my way through a one way aisle that is actually 2 way praying someone wouldn't be coming from the other direction. People parked in the aisle, actually invented a whole new row in the middle of an aisle and were parking on the grass... GRRR. When I finally found a spot (after 10-15 min) I couldn't turn into it so i kept backin up (with the little space I had to opperate my car in) and ended up hitting the truck next to me. So I backed all the way up (hoping I wouldn't hit anything) and finally managed to pull in. I get out to look at my car, I have a nice long dent in the passenger backseat side, but I don't care, my car is old so... The truck of course didn't have any damage lol. So I didn't bother leaving a note or anything. (don't report me to the police!!! lol) Hopefully tomorrow will be a little more less crazy. It's always like this the first week or so, but I hate it!

Fasting

The first day is done, and I'm onto the second day! I don't remember it being this easy last yr. Last yr I fasted even though I wasn't muslim yet, I was starving by the end of the first day. This time I was hungry, but not like I remember from last yr. The only problem I had was that I had a horrible headache. I don't really have any muslims around me, I'd have to drive like 15 min at least to find one, so I didn't eat with a muslims family, but I did eat with my aunts family. :) I told them I got married too and they didn't kick me out of the house (they're the ones who have been giving me the most problems about my conversion.) My cousin actually congratulated me :) I know they're not happy though.

FAFSA I hate you!!!

For anyone from a different country, FAFSA is an application for student aid. The gov't can give you a loan/free money depending on your financial status all for college. Well, now that I'm married, my financial status has obviously changed... It turns out after you file your first application you cannot change your marriage status. Which means I get no aid from the gov't. I have enough money for next sem., but that means I will not see my husband for about a yr cuz no money for plane ticket. IsA, it will all work out.

I Love Arabs P's and B's

Haha. I was letting my husband look online for something last night. He was looking up something on an Islamic site. I told him about Sunni path after he was done checking the sites that he trusted. He went to the google search bar and typed in "Sunni bath" O started laughing and he was like "What??" When the search finally came up he was like "O, oops." I was like, "Yup, we're all going to get together and have one big Sunni bath." lol

On another occasion when I was talking to him about getting to the airport to go to Egypt. He told me "take a cap." I was like "WTF?!?! Is there something that I don't know about that's called cap??" Then I realized he mean cab and laughed my head off. Just picture yourself with 2 huge bags getting into a baseball cap and going to the airport... HILARIOUS.
