I woke up this morning, I have the intuition that something is wrong today. And yes! I was late to class. Hopped into the bus at 8.30am and get in to class 20 minutes later.. Lecturer doesn't bother if you to come late in class but it shows your discipline. I don't like to come late to class, where everyone staring at you when walk to your seat and interrupt the lecturer/students.
After class, I met my friends in front of the library and followed her to take some final-year-project-related things at the faculty office. The unlucky me was spotted by the deputy dean of my faculty! =.='' He asked for my student's card and see him at his office. He told me what I did wrong. He said that 'baju terlalu sendat dan tidak menutupi punggung!' I was like 'erm.. ok! I admit that it's my fault not to wear 'jubah' to class. I supposed to wear baju kurung on every Friday and Monday but I don't feel comfortable wearing it. I prefer t-shirt(long sleeves!) and jeans to class. then he asked again: 'Are you Christian?' I nodded. 'Which Christian?' 'Catholic.' ...
and the conversation started..
Deputy Dean(DD): Do you go to church every Sunday?
Me: Yes!
DD: ok, what is the difference between Muslim and Christian?
Me: (OMG! please don't ask me religion matters!!) Actually every religion is the same where it taught its people for good but it's only one's belief that makes every religion different.
and then he started to talk about Islam.. bla..bla..bla.. I don't argue because me myself don't have strong facts to argue with!
and then.. a question popped up.
DD: (he questioned me about the 'babi' things. I don't remember how his question was. It's like halal & haram things la)
Me: erm.. actually everything God's created in this earth can be eaten. (I'd read Fr.Eric's blog saying about this)
read this:
Mark 7:15 ''There is nothing that goes into you from the outside which can make you ritually unclean. Rather, it is what comes out of you that makes you unclean.''
Mark7:19 ''because it does not goes into your heart but into your stomach and then goes on out of the body. (In saying this, Jesus declared that all foods are fit to eaten)''
I hope I can pour out these words to him! haha.. I don't like to argue about this ok! you have your faith, and I have mine. It's just that I didn't do my homework as a Catholic to read/know more about my religion.
And he argue about our bible saying that the bible is not true! there are many authors for each version. and I told him that it's only translation,not changing the meaning of the words.
He gave me a 'love letter' for not wearing proper attire to class, but it doesn't make any sense. I will wear what I usually wear to class. I'm sorry if your eyes terjolok.. 8)
I feel ashame of myself that I don't have enough faith to uphold my religion. I should to do my homeworks now to know my faith more. I know this situation will happen again in the future since I live in 98% Muslim community now. :( Oh Lord, grant me the words of wisdom and truth!
have a nice day people..
