I was looking through my facebook notes the other day and I came across the "25 Random Things About Me" which I'd written back in 2009. So I thought to myself, why not rewrite it now that it's 2013 and I'm a couple of years older? It took some time but I finally got around to writing it and so here it is! =)
1) I am literally obsessed with Germany - it's my dream to
visit it. Also: I think the German language is absolutely lovely and I would love to speak it fluently some day. (I do know some, but the grammar still goes over
my head)
2) I'm usually mistaken for being quiet when you first meet
me but once I've gotten comfortable and known you long enough, be prepared for
a permanent headache.
3) My interests change periodically. At the moment it's
anything related to religion, science(D.A.)*, world affairs(D.A.)*, and Naruto.
4) I procrastinate big time by watching religious debates. (D.A.)*
5) Yes, I'm an anime lover but I'm extremely picky about my
animes. They have to have depth, character development, and be CLEAN. :p (Epic
fights wouldn't hurt either)
6) A few years ago I'd say I'm an extremely unemotional
person: Now I'm not so sure - The tears come way too easily.
7) My close friends mean the world to me - perhaps because I
have so few of them and I'd prefer to keep it that way. Also, I would do
anything for them just to make them happy.
8) My older sister is my best friend - she's probably the
only one who knows me through and through.
9) I'm an open book at times - my feelings seem to be
written all over my face no matter how hard I attempt to hide them.
10) You do NOT want to try and frighten me in the dark (or
even at night) - you'll end up with a hysterical girl who will probably die of
a heart attack. I repeat: it is not recommended. (Unless you WANT me to die -
but that would just be mean :p)
11) I actually like debating. Seriously, it's fun.
12) I'm a fan of salad, running on a daily basis, and
chocolate. My day isn't complete without those three.
13) If I wasn't doing computer science, I'd probably dedicate
my life to doing Tafseer and Arabic studies - I find it quite fascinating.
14) I can be awkward at times. Extremely awkward.
15) I have this obsession with adorable, furry things which
is just unexplainable especially for a nineteen year old. Also: gift me a baby
kitten, and I'll love you forever. :p
16) My bucket list includes being a professional race car
driver, going deep sea diving, and playing the guitar.
17) I used to wish I was born a boy when I was younger, but
now I'm perfectly happy being a girl :p I still do want an older brother
though.
18) I want my husband to be my best friend - one who loves
me, understands me, is patient with me despite all my faults, one who I can
tease all I want and be teased back - And above all, someone who will help me
become a better Muslimah so we can attain paradise together. (I still have my dream of him being a convert)
19) The last good book I read was Honour and The Sword -
that was one epic historical fiction which I certainly recommend.
20) My goal in life is to become a better person and Muslim
so that I am able to serve my Deen (religion) in the best possible way.
21) I can be extremely criticizing at times - although I try
my best to reduce sounding harsh.
22) I have two amazing cousins who I hold dearly in my
heart. I'd consider them my sisters in a heartbeat anyday.
23) Yes, I can be sweet when I want to - get on my wrong
side though and I'll make you regret it.
24) I'm a nervous wreck before giving a speech - afterwards
though I feel like I've conquered the entire world. :p
25) Writing this has made me realize I've changed a lot more
than I thought from a few years ago.
