Ramblings + Musical Crush

Salam,

I hope everyone's doing great.

I've been feeling kinda blue lately. I just can't seem to find me a job, I've been on the hunt for 7 months now and I did not find anything. 7 months and not one job interview, not even a tiny, jacked up one. And of course, there's no dinero, so I spend most of my time at home, trying to get busy doing a few things here and there. I'm sick of it, I think I'm past the disapointment phase, now I'm just indifferent, doing things like I'm MsRoboto.

I guess Allah is trying to give me a lesson in patience. I know He's the Provider, and whatever I'm supposed to have, I'll have, but how long is it going to take? Will I ever find my dream job? Allah u alam.

I've been listening to this song these days. This is the Shakira that I like, rock and raw, instead of barbified and all. The song's good, the music's fine and the lyrics are beautiful. They kinda cheer me up.



Y un dia despues de la tormenta
cuando menos piensas sale el sol
de tanto sumar, pierdes la cuenta
porque uno y uno no siempre son dos
cuando menos piensas, sale el sol

salaams, don't worry your not the only one!!! I'm also looking for a job, it's not easy as a Muslim who is covered, you are always getting judged purely on looks!

Inshallah you will get what is ur nasib (me too!)

Lovely song even if I dont understand a word of it!!

Yeah, well it's a pain in the butt! The worst is that I haven't been contacted for an interview, not once! How can I convince them when I can't even talk to a real person?

But I'm trying to be patient, let Allah do His job=)

The song is about a difficult relationship, but in the chorus she says that no matter how had things get, when expect it the least, the sun will rise.

Actually, I had 3! I don't yet if any of these will work out or not.
