It feels like yesterday i just finished my fall semester but unfortunately, the reality tells me that i'm in the spring semester right now. huh? where is the school break? aku bukan seorang robot! i can't do things continuously without any rest. i need a vacation! and so the story goes. i went to florida which is one of the states among 50 states in this country. yes i had my vacation indeed! florida is the southeast state far below in the map. miami is synonym to florida. just like how synonym shah alam is to selangor. everyone knows it. and that is why i stayed in miami. to be specific, it is in south beach, which is the best spot of enjoying the beach. to be more specific, the hostel is 2 blocks away from the beach. by the way, the weather in florida is just like in malaysia. it has the sun and no snow. the temperature over there is a bit less than in malaysia. but yeah, that's really good for me since it was really cold around new jersey-new york. florida is a perfect spot to avoid the chill and snow since it's just 2 hours away by plane. that's long enough for an introduction i guess. let's move on to the next part.

i traveled there along with a friend. our trip longed for approximately 2 weeks. that's pretty a long time because most people just spend like 4 or 5 days or the most, a week, and that's it, they are done. what i love of traveling with few friends, and in this case, it's only one friend is because you can do things according to your own desire. you decide, you go. but if you travel with a lot of people, you definitely need to discuss and it suck when they start to cast votes and you lose. that did not happen for me this time. so we felt like having a long vacation and we are good. in the future, tak payah datang lagi sebab da puas. the structure of the trip is, we spent the first 4 days in miami to see what's happening during new year and it was dope indeed. later, we took a cruise ship to bahamas for 4 days. it was a great experience. i hope one day i'll get to board that ship again but next time i have to make sure it's with my wife. that's gonna be banging! then, from the port of miami, we went up to orlando, which is a city in florida too, to spend 3 days of exploring universal studio. universal studio is some kind of a theme park and it has few other parks located around it. another universal studio is located in california. it's a theme park, so it has rides and stuffs based on popular productions and characters like jurassic park, marvel superheroes, nicktoons and lot more others. finally the last three days were spent in miami again. it's never boring to feel the wind, to see the beach with blue greenish water and white sand. and palm tree too! they are just a perfect combination. how great Allah is.

next time i'll tell you what i saw along the trip. sometimes, you just need to try every possible way of doing something. not if you're comfortable with one specific way, you limit yourself with that one way. free yourself, and explore. the world is for us to dig and ditch.  we got nothing to lose. in general, it is about seeking knowledge. if you stay at "takuk yang lama", you gain nothing. but when you explore new things, you gain knowledge! but be careful because exploration comes with thousands of possible obstacles. and let's take a look at one hadith that i think is so beautiful:

Narrated AbudDarda':
Kathir ibn Qays said: I was sitting with AbudDarda' in the mosque of Damascus.
A man came to him and said: AbudDarda, I have come to you from the town of the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) for a tradition that I have heard you relate from the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him). I have come for no other purpose.
He said: I heard the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) say: If anyone travels on a road in search of knowledge, Allah will cause him to travel on one of the roads of Paradise. The angels will lower their wings in their great pleasure with one who seeks knowledge, the inhabitants of the heavens and the Earth and the fish in the deep waters will ask forgiveness for the learned man. The superiority of the learned man over the devout is like that of the moon, on the night when it is full, over the rest of the stars. The learned are the heirs of the Prophets, and the Prophets leave neither dinar nor dirham, leaving only knowledge, and he who takes it takes an abundant portion.
