haha

there is a message there

collection of inks

the japanese have these types of machine drawn cut synthetic type behaves like rubber when moist

dont ask y i have 2 inkstones

the answer is obvious

a 2 and a 4 inch

2 inch meaning that it has 2 inch diameter for grinding

not the end to end measurement of the whole thing

how??

i think the pic under the clock shld be lowered abit more?

i think this one really fits that wall above my bed

this one maybe not

maybe here?

very familiar

think its part of surah yasiin if im not wrong

kinda sad n feel heavy to let my fren go

fa guang here r 3 more ways i found overnite thinking

haha

yo fa guang

here's 'kebenaran' in jawi script

1 and 2 are normal arabic cursive

3 is the midrange kufic

4 is the high level kufic as you can see there are no dots and either vertical or horizontal lines no curves or angles

the other 2 writings are just what i can think of right now

there is one site i find it useful to abt kufic

http://www.kufic.info/
