WELL. As most of you will know, I am on Twitter (FOLLOW MEEE!). I have this amazing friend on there, Hajra Nadeem. She is HILARIOUS. If you like me, you’ll fall head over heels for her
I love college. I absolutely love it. People kept telling me I shouldn’t go to this college because it’s a bad college and all the Muslims end up dating yada yada yada. Everybody there is soooo bad and you’re gonna end up being sooooo bad too. Well, WHATEVER PEOPLE BECAUSE MY COLLEGE IS WONDERFUL! I settled in so quick! Everybody was great, the A2 students were all so lovely (I have an A2 friend now! She’s so funny!), the teachers were brilliant and explained the course outline very well and the new AS students were just amazing. AND EVERYBODY HERE SAYS “ACE”! Every time I hear someone say “ACE”, a huge smile breaks out on my face. I love it
Yeah, there are a lot of Muslims dating (I saw this bearded guy stroking this hijabi’s leg. EW!) and what not, but I’m not doing it, am I? I’m not interested in that sorta stuff. I REFUSE to let the actions of others affect me.
Government and Politics is THE BEST SUBJECT IN THE WORLD. A) it is really, really interesting! I understand the news better now! B) OMG THE A2 STUDENTS IN THE POLITICS CLASS ARE THE BEST! There’s a whole row of A2 students who picked up Politics as an AS, and they all sit in a long line together. They are SO RUDE! It’s mind bogglingly hilarious how rude they are. I have literally cried with laughter in that class. The teacher is just…wow. She’s just wow. She keeps us entertained all lesson with funny stories about her family, and we all have such good fun! She’s inspired me to do Politics at Uni (well, Politics and Theology combined. If I ever GET to uni, that is)
Sister Number 1 made up this new word. “Arse-a-palumber.” Then she told My Weird and Abnormal Cousin S. Then she made up “arse-a-parinder”. Then they taught my 4 year old sister how to say it. Then MWACS recorded her saying it. And now it’s her ring tone. Bizarre, I know.
My daddy made me mad. He makes me so mad I could kill someone. When I talked to him about getting a job so I can afford to go to uni blah blah, what did he say? “There’s no point. You’re not going to university. You finish college and that’s it.” When I told him that I AM going to university, and I plan on going to a TOP university at that, he just calmly replied, “No you’re not.” WHAT THE @#&$? WELL DADDY, I DO NOT CARE WHAT YOU SAY BECAUSE I PLAN ON GOING WITH OR WIHOUT YOUR PERMISSION! GODDAMN.
Apparently, there’s an Islamic college opening up nearby soon, and my daddy and mummy also said that NEXT YEAR I WILL MOVE TO THAT COLLEGE! WHAT THE @~#!£??? He wants me to FAIL my A levels. How can he even THINK of uprooting me from college in my second year? WHAT IF THEY DON’T HAVE THE SUBJECTS I WANT? WHAT IF THEY USE A DIFFERENT EXAM BOARD? A WHOLE YEAR WILL GO TO WASTE! I am NOT moving colleges. NOT. GOING. TO HAPPEN. They also said that Sister Number 1 will have to go to that college. Sister Number 1’s reaction? “I’m not going to college at all if they make me go there.”
To be a star
you must shine your own light,
follow your own path
and don't worry about the darkness,
for that is when the stars shine brightest.
Edgar A. Guest
You are the person who has to decide.
Whether you'll do it or toss it aside;
you are the person who makes up your mind.
Whether you'll lead or will linger behind,
whether you'll try for a goal that's afar.
Or just be contented to stay where you are.

So please, oh PLEASE, we beg, we pray,
go throw your TV set away,
and in its place you can install
a lovely bookshelf on the wall.
