I just want to pause whatever I am doing for one minute, everyday, and remember death! It will happen to me and all of us one day, I ask myself am I ready to meet my Lord, Allah, the Almighty? What have I prepared and sent forth?

FLOOD!!!!


Oh my God....flood is everywhere. My house is isolated by the flood; west, north, east, even south!

It is the first flood in the early of this year and the biggest one!
Last Monday, when I went to Surabaya in the morning, it was okay...but when I came home...I had to walk for about 2 km in the flood!!! The water height was till my knee, more I think! I felt I lost my feet! I was so tired. Walk in the water is not easy! There were no public transportation because they couldn't pass the flood.

Usually, in the next day the flood height will decrease. But it wasn't usual, it was unusual! It was higher and higher! I couldn't come to campus and attend my final exam on Tuesday because no motor or car could cross the flood. The flood high reached more than the adults' hip. Everyone was give up and decided to stay at home only. They didn't go to school and work. I either. After trying all efforts and alternative ways, I gave up. I sent message to my lecturer and thanked God, he permitted me to postpone my exam to Wednesday.

I decided to go to Surabaya this afternoon through other way. But, it was canceled because of the hard rain. Then I decided to stay in my brother house, it wasn't isolated by the flood, last night. And this morning, my brother picked me up to the center of Gresik. Thus, I could reach Surabaya easily, although it is twice farther than normal route, and attended my final exam and submitted my take-home examination of Semantic.
And, here I am...trapped in Surabaya and cannot go home because the flood is still high. I have to sleep in my f
riend's house. Actually, I want to sleep in Bunda's house but I don't know whether she is busy or not right now... I don't know when I can come home.
