you know that “joke” your friend makes about you and the only problem is that it actually hits home and you sit there and realize that they were probably being serious in an indirect way and covering up their true thoughts by passing it off as a joke and then you just sit there feeling like shit for the entire day

White privilege is Microsoft Word not underlining your name in red. 

Eh, I didn’t get this privilege even before hijab.

And my head told my heart “let love grow,” but my heart told my head “this time, no, this time, no.”

Oh, United States, hello again.

I didn’t miss much of you, but I did miss my town. I missed the fields and the animals and the train in the morning making sounds in the distance.

…See! The cheeks are bipolar! @ a Welsh castle

This time tomorrow, I’ll be in the air on the way to the US (iA)…

Bittersweet.

How can my cheekbones look so nice one day and then so chubby/baby the next? O.o

And finally, my next trip is the one back home…

Returning to the United States on Friday, insha’Allah. Bittersweet.

The Vatican! And Roma! iA this Sunday! :)

(Guys, I’m not going to know what to do when I go back to the United States and have to be serious and can’t travel. I planned a trip to Canada to keep myself sane. Like I can’t see Canada from the school parking garage or something. It’s not even far… But I’ll convince myself.)

does anyone else ever get really stressed over assignments and know that you should be doing them but you feel like you physically can’t stop procrastinating and that just stresses you out even more or is that just me

Subhan’Allah. The feeling on finishing the Qur’an.

Don’t get me wrong, I love reading the Qur’an, just flipping through to surahs that relate to my life at the moment, for inspiration where needed, for reminders as necessary… But there’s something so phenomenal to me about a straight read through. To see which surahs stand out that time, which ayats stick in your mind, which new lessons stick with you.

Alhamdulillah, I finished reading the Qur’an for the first time last July and tonight I finished it for the third time. This message from Allah (SWT) has changed my life. I remember picking it up for the first time “just to know” and, before I knew it, I was captivated.

I remember finishing it just before going on a trip to Haiti with CHURCH to volunteer. The night before we left, I picked up the Qur’an again and read everything about orphans. I knew before I went that I’d revert. Subhan’Allah, He works in such fascinating ways.
