In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Hi Sweetie!  How are you feeling?  It's been raining all day here today, ever since the dawn prayer.  I love the rain.  It cools everything down.  Ya Allah, thank you for the rain.  Of course, I don't want to get flooded.  But it hasn't flooded around here in 5 years, I think.  Since the local government upgraded the drainage ditches.  I didn't do much cooking today.  My Mom gave me some rice from a local merchant, but I was still hungry.  So I cooked up a late dinner.  Sausage and egg stuffed pizza.  I just discovered a healthy and natural way to get rid of gas: coriander seed!  I wonder if it works on gastritis and diarrhea too.  That's one of the advantages of knowing how to cook and feeding myself: I rarely get stomach ailments even though I have a very sensitive stomach.  Alhamdulillah.  Are you having time to practice cooking?  Remember to use a medium flame at the most until have you have total confidence!  I curious to try your cuisine.  I love you, and I need you.

Oh, it's movie night!  Remember I told you about P.Ramlee, one of Malaysia's most respected artistes.  Last night I watched this movie, and I think it's such a masterpiece.  It's so bizarre, and in a serious way.  P.Ramlee is usually known for his comedy.  It's a great representation of how Asians regard the supernatural.  Sorry, no subtitles.  Oh, it's been such a lazy day!  The rain made it nice and cool, and I've been lazing around all day.  What a great day.  Alhamdulillah.  Can't do much of anything in the rain, so I just lay around on the floor all day.  You wanna be a lazy girl with me?  Maybe I'll paint your face and dress you up nice and pretty.  Or I'll just play a video game.  Usually, the day is but striving towards you.  So let's strive toward each other.  InshaAllah, God will bring us together.
