Catching Up and Having a Tiff with Religion

Well, I haven't written in so long, so I might as well start now...

First off, I did not make it into JV Volleyball, but another window of opportunity opened for me. Being the budding actress that I am, the theater has called me to star in its play, "The Caucasian Chalk Circle." I hope I get a good part, but fingers crossed.

After a week plus of school, I have gotten into a daily routine. However, it still feels so unbelievably surreal to be here. Every time I step into class, the feeling of disconnection happens because, frankly, I still have my soul in Dhaka. Weird, isn't it?

After a week plus, I've found out a lot about the people here, and some are who I thought they were, and some are not so. However, it's difficult for those people who are in the so-so region. But, my Mama was right, I can't be prejudice about meeting new people. That is why most countries don't talk to each other. *Sigh*

Did you know, the most stupidest thing happened. I have been called into AGAMA class, and it's a pretty stupid deal. First off, I hate the bloody subject. I mean, I know religion is good enough, but AGAMA and me don't mix. It's sort of like old enemies being forced to like each other. Oh please, I have much better things to do than listen to some dip-face talk about the ESSENCE of ISLAM. (God, If my mom reads this, she will kill me in an instant!)
Secondly, it is just a waste of my afternoon. Think about it, you spend your entire morning at school, and after-school, you WANT to do something FUN. Not sit in class reciting Alif, Baa, Taa. Seriously, it's like being in class with MINDLESS idiots.
Sometiems, I wish I was in a different religion. It's such a stupid thing that the Malaysian Government is forcing us to learn religion. The key word here is FORCED. Who would want someone to force religion on to them.
For those who are Islamic and reading this, I'm sorry but it's just sad. It's weird, I'm put under the catagory of Islam, but somehow, I feel that I'm more towards aethist rather than nothing at all.

To top it off, Puasa is coming up. I know that all the nabi-nabi fasted, but what does that have to teach us? And if any of you say Perseverance, I will kill you.

My friend, Oneida, said that Islam in Malaysia has gone to the extreme. Compared to the other coutries who are much more developed in Islam than Malaysia, they can actually touch dogs and drink (before intoxication). It's just a stupid thing that the PAS Malaysian Government should change. Yes, I resent saying Malaysian Government, so I will now refer to it as PAS.

Religion and Me, a combination that will cause such a deadly combustion.

Backtrakking, I re-visited my past in Agama class. I was the only one without a tudung, and I got pinched by the ustazah for that. My life with Agama proved to be a living hell.
Just awhile back, I questioned the use of the tudung(Head Scarf), because there are tudungs which barely even covers your hair or neck. Basically, it has become a stupid fashion icon made to symbolize, if that's the word, Malaysia.
I agree with the French, the head scarf is a sign of Female Oppression. Why in the world choose it?


Well, I better stop now. Somehow, I have caused a great SIN on me for writing so badly about religion. So whoever is out there saying shit about this, SCREW YOU.
I think I've gotten that out of my system.
