Very much a Girl-Next-Door, I'm happiest with the simple things in life, at home or second-homes (i.e. friend's house or a frequented bookstore/ restaurant/café) in the company of people I love and trust. Weekday evenings after work are usually spent chilling in my room; after praying, I'm usually on Twitter finding something to laugh at or on Youtube watching a thought-provoking Hamza Yusuf lecture. I'll wander downstairs to sit with mom and dad for the rest of the evening, or help them with whatever home project we're working on for the week. Still very young at heart, I enjoy facilitating and hanging with the local masjid Youth Group for their event plans/planning. On the weekend, I'm usually out with friends, either trying a new restaurant, at the mall or movies, taking a walk with family or neighbors, and/or reading fiction or watching something if I feel like staying in (which is more often than not). That said, I'm always down for something spontaneous to do; it's more about the company I'm with than the actual activity for me. I base my values and purpose of life on Islam; I want to move through life with Jannah as the goal and while still having fun. Creating feelings of peace and contentment in the home is important to me.
