Lost
mood: good

When you think you've lost everything; think again. There is always something more to be stripped away. Hope, faith, and love; they’ll go away leaving you cold and empty. Leaving you lost. That light at the end, it’s just a lighthouse, leading you to water. Deep dark water, where you’ll drown, alone.

another night

another night, what i should say about it.. while i was cruising my instructor closed the cockpit light. we looked like a small dot in the darkness. looking east west north i cant look behind me its all dark. flying over the sea at 4000ft suddenly an aircraft is crossing above us at 5000ft and another one at 6000ft. that was the most amazing picture i have seen since i started flying. we reached our destination and here the problems starts. we entered a cloud the turbulence, shower of rain and heavy wind started. we did couple of instrument approaches. tonight it was my 1st circling to land at an aerodrome outside our normal airport. there was other traffic as well. the disorientation you get during the night is amazing. you should believe and trust your instrument 100% otherwise you will end up into the ground. it was a lovely flight..

1st night instrument navigation

tonight i went for my 1st night instrument navigation didnt go the way i wanted. i took off from the training airport to the primary airport. i did my ILS approach (instrument landing system) "oh God it was my best so far" conduct a missed approach tracking 222 and climbing to 4000ft contacting approach radar passing 1500 and my instructor changed the plan we wont go we will stay due to fod in the area. i was so dissapointed. we stayed in the air for two hours doing airwork and we came back. i have to do the whole thing again. this is annoying me. its affecting me. its killing me. but on the other hand its better than sitting and doing nothing. i hope the plan works..

People who carry out acts of terror are evil, say imams during sermon
mood: good

Imams of all mosques across the country have strongly denounced the stream of bloody violence in Muslim countries and the entire world, describing those who carry out bloody acts as evil. read more

I was really dissapointed with the australia muslims here" i dont know if its the media or the people them selves". the image they give about islam and the way they act. the other day i was watching the news on Channel 7 the sheikh in melboune was giving a lecture. if i didnt hear him by my self i would say to anyone tells me the story that he is lieing. again i cross checked with my friend to confirm what this guy said. he said going to university in western countries open the gateway of the Shaitan and we should no wear the western cloths because its gays and lesbians cloths.
how stupid this can be?
what image he is trying to give?

will be contiued later...
