It's Abi



The memoir of me being in the United Kingdom still playing freshly in my mind. There, where I was growing to be a person, where I was struggling to survive when my scholarship was stopped and most importantly where I learned the hardship of this life. These two pictures were the places where I was studying
Islamic Studies. The headmaster is Dr. Kadhem Al-Rawi. This place is known as The European Institute of Human Sciences (EIHS). It is acknowledged by British Council since 2007 the year when I was in Manchester and was flying back to hometown on Sept.

On my first day there, I hardly spoke English and Arabic but I understood them. He, the headmaster taught me everything. I still remember some misunderstood that happened between me and him.. I wanted to borrow his phone to call my parents to tell them that I got to EIHS safely. I asked "Can you speak English?" what a stupid question I asked...hehehe..guess what he replied.."Did you said that I couldn't speak English?"...

Thanks to him and other teachers, Dr Izziddin, Mrs Patricia Elizabeth, Dr Atifah, Dr Abu Othman and there were more. I'm really indebted with them..may Allah rewards them as same as what they had been giving us.

Dr Kadhem Al-Rawi or more friendly with Abi, means father was actually like father to me and other student. He loves Malaysian students very much and I am really glad to be one of them. May be that was why I did not really miss my hometown because he knew how to make us happy and cheering.

After being apart for nearly a year, I seldomly texted him but he did not reply any of my messages.. to convince my feeling, I told myself that may be he was busy. And one day in this week...I missed him and kulliyah so much, I was nearly tearing my eyes. So I decided to text him even though he never answered my msg. Luckily and unbelievably, I got a phone call from EIHS...worrying my Arabic might turned badly I still spoke. Thanks to Allah, my arabic wasn't as bad as I thought it would turn to be.

Thanks Abi for calling me...it has made my longing lessen a bit. I wish I could put his picture in this blog but i couldn't find any in this laptop. Well, you can look for it in my friendster.
