The AGM meeting meant that lectures and lab sessions were cancelled...:) my team members went to Maryland for lunch...I didn't feel like going and besides I didn't want to put myself in an awkward position...(will explain later)....I went to the Library and browsed around for books but the most important part of my discovery was finding the Prayer Room...as I entered the Prayer Room I felt the warmth of sisterhood and Unity..it was beautiful..it felt peaceful and I felt so in the 'right place'.
The Prayer Room
The room consists of many designated areas...One area of the room resembles the layout of the mosque..there is an eating area where you can enjoy eating without being 'watched' or having to hide behind the veil....:) For the first time in a while I enjoyed my 'salad sandwich'...sisters walked in performed wudhu (ablution), smiled and greeted each other. Some sisters were sitting and chatting, others were praying....the call for Prayer was sounded....it made my heart flutter....it was beautiful!!!
i asked one of the sister that i wanted to join the Islamic Society...she did promise that she will get back to me...so I'm waiting...
Went home early....
