My third Mcdonalds for this week (Gulp..). Guilty like hell is my feeling currently. So fat, i know, is my body becoming.
Note to self: No fast food for the next 2 weeks. Okay, 1 week. Dont be too hard on self.
I had Ayam Goreng Mcd in mind, but at the counter, i ficklefully asked for a Double cheese. Enuff about my cravings. Lets talk Monk.
There was this weird dude sitting at one of the tables, who didnt have to do much to grab my attention. His sunny yellow kimono-like robe was loud enuff to call out for me. A monk. At Mcdonalds. This is gonnabe interesting.
As i watched him, he had an empty bowl in fronta him. With a turquoise colored soup spoon. *flash back* masa tadika i participated in that lari bawak telur penyu event. yea, that kinda spoon. He had his hands together, chin down, eyes shut, lips mumbled. Must be praying.
Soon after, a guy with his kid approached him, gave him a 7eleven plastic bag with 3 Gardenia buns in it. (yes, i stared in silence while my friends were busy talking about, erm..banking slash building contract..yada yada..). Monky said sthg to them. "oh he talks.." hehe. =p.
I knew about monks mixing or appearing themselves in public to get food all along, as i have read it somewhere before, but i never actually thought it is true. Now, i believe you, miss journalist.
He then unwrapped the 3 buns, quite impatiently, and put them in his bowl. prayed some more and started eating them. Initially, i freaked out when i saw him, bare footed, all alone and staring at his bowl..But now i pity him. He looked, hungry.
Starved, actually.
(i had a lotta fries left, should i give it to him..?)
I mean, the reason he parked himself at Mcdonalds in the first place, was to get some Mcdonalds, right..? Instead he got Gardenia buns. Poor Monky..
*Still staring* (i had taken a video of him earlier, sorry, cant help it) He finished his bun, put his hands together, chin down, eyes shut, lips mumbled. He's praying again.
I wonder.
If i could pray for sthg, right now.. I'd pray for Monky to find my God. So that he wont suffer like that. Btw, Michael Jackson is rumored to be embracing Islam soon. Rumored.
...then i'll pray for myself to realize how lucky i am to have found my God.

michael jackson have joined the nation of islam. it's not exactly sunni but at least... although there's nothing to be proud of about dat... michael jackson is a shame to whoever is associated to him. May Allah guides him to the right path.
ye ke?? dah ke?? wow. there goes all his "enter-the-back-door" sins. =p.
nation of islam (NOI) was a group malcolm X used to belong to led by elijah muhamad who preaches that "there is no god but Allah and ELIJAH MUHAMAD is his messenger'. After his pilgrimage to Mecca, Malcolm X realizes the brotherhood Islam preaches among mankind and that NOI is nothing but another racist movement. Malcolm X came back to America and started speaking against Elijah Muhamad and his misconstrued brand of Islam. Malcolm called for Americans to unite and believes that the true Islam will solve the racism problems in America. a year after his pilgrimage, Malcolm X was assassinated by what was believed to be the people of the NOI.
