I like writing.

It makes me feel at ease. When I should be doing schoolwork, I write. When I should be sleeping, I write. I need to read more. I started reading a new book yesterday. I really like it so far. I love entering another realm, world for moments at a time. And finding cute and awesome quotes when you read that you just want to share with the world. That' so much fun. I like books too. I guess that's why I work at a bookstore. I want to sit down on a patio on a comfy couch with the breeze flowing, and just read. And write. Simple.

Allahu Akbar.

I like summer.

It is full of time. Also scary to think about. When I wake up in the morning, I start thinking about what I should do. I should take it easy. Think about why I am doing everything. Going here and there. Working. I tell myself, to save up so that I can take the Al-Maghrib seminar in mid-July on the 40 Hadith An-Nawawi, and I really want to take my family this time. So much to learn. Time. Do not want to waste a moment. To-do lists are no fun. Sure, they help organize. They also leave no room for spontanaeity. We are young. We are privileged. We should not wasted any resources that we are blessed to have. I hate staying at home for too long. I start to feel like a bum. Other times, I am disturbed by the blatant disregard for humanity some people have, in their interactions with one another, and I just want to come home and sit with my mama. My friends who support me. Good support. Alhamdulillah. I'll come back later, InshAllah.
