good vibes only

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!! welcome 2019. I have been waiting for you.  I cannot believe that 2018 is officially over and it's the new year. Alhamdulillah. Well, let me start where I last left off and go on from there. My trip to North Carolina was great. Alhamdulillah. Omnya's family is amazing and treated me so well. I haven't eaten that good in a loooong time...seriously. It was so nice being with a Muslim family as it helped strengthen some of the things I was struggling with as a Muslim myself.

Hey guys! So I thought that after graduation I would have more time to blog about my life and things going on with me but I actually took the time to enjoy my winter break from both work and school since I am starting my Master's program in the Spring of 2019. But, things have been pretty good. Alhamdulillah. I cannot complain. Merry Christmas to all my Christian followers, and Happy Holidays to everyone else. Honestly, I don't have a problem not celebrating Christmas as I used to since I

Alhamdulillah! I cannot believe the day is officially here.  Graduation. I have been waiting for this day since I started college four years ago, but today is extra special to me since this time two years ago I was looking at a 1.9 GPA with no hopes or chances of graduating but here I am today graduating with above a 3.0 and walking across that stage with the biggest smile on my face. Alhamdulillah. I am eternally thankful. Well, I'm keeping this short and sweet as I have a lot to prepare for

11.22.2018  - holy crap it has been a good minute since I was last on here. it has been 6 months and 16 days since my last blog post to be exact. wow, I am horrible, lol.  between life, school, work (yes, I have a job now), and being a broke college student, I haven't been able to keep up blogging as I wanted too. plus, running your own website can become expensive. (having to pay for your own domain name, monthly payments for the actual website, blah blah blah). well, now I am back and I plan

Hey everyone. Happy Friday to you all. I hope everyone is having a wonderful day today. I mean it is the start of the weekend so who wouldn't be happy? I wish I could say the same. College literally does not let you have a life.  Making assignments due throughout the week as well as during the weekends.  Like why? But the only plus about college is that they give you a syllabus that has everything for the entire semester, so if you wanted to work ahead you could. I have a 13-16 page term paper

I cannot believe that it’s been over three months since my trip to Dubai. Getting to experience the Arabian Peninsula and everything it has to offer was such an amazing experience. It is one thing to learn about other cultures within the United States, but to actually experience another culture in a foreign country is a whole different experience.  My professor told me to take a travel journal along with me during my trip and write in it as the days go by so I can remember specific things and

I am horrible.  how am I going to have a blog and not keep up with it? I can't blame it on school because I was on spring break last week. but I was intensively studying for Midterms the week before that. and your girl got all As on her exams. and a B on her research paper. man, I am so proud of myself and how I'm doing this semester. literally, two more semesters to go and then I will be a college graduate.  December 2018, please hurry. but then again don't. because I do not know what I am

18 days later... I feel like I've been gone forever. I would say I have been super busy but I honestly don't think I have been.  I mean I have been busy with midterms. buuuuut not anymore...thank God. I just had my last one yesterday...took it at like 3am. got a 90% on it, so I'm happy. so far I am so proud of myself and my grades. I am extremely proud of how well I did on my midterms: Women & Religion - 100% Research Methods: 84% Terrorism & Homeland Security: 90% Psychology of Women: 12-page
