10. I like how sometimes I imagine my consciounce to be a real person who looks at me disapprovingly when i do something bad and smiles when i do good.

9. I like how im both perfectly comfortable sitting in silence with people and just as comfortable when everyones nattering.

8. I like how i can be both shy and loud at the same time.

7. I like how I always worry about my brothers and sisters and friends.

6. I like how I always push myself to be the best I can be.

5. I like how ive managed to match up my scarfs and handbags.

4. I like how i keep a secret diary which only i can read.

Hav u ever lied to yourself. Just to make you feel better. And deep down you know its a lie but you go along with it coz its a prettier picture than reality.

I wonder if Allah (swt) would hav issues with that?

Sometimes there are people you just really hate.
This is dedicated to all of them:

10. I hate how you make me laugh.

9. I hate how you make me smile.

8. I hate the way you read my mind.

3. I hate it when your not around.

2. I hate this cold silence and how i now care.

1. But mostly, I hate the way i dont hate you. Not even close, not even a lil bit, not even at all.

What u got in your heart bruv, can you Decide?
I can represent places like iraq and palestine with pride

May the 15th 5 hundred & thirty villages depopulate,
The IDF do worse today and that was nineteen fourty eight
Gaza's crying in the middle east but has the world moved
The UN can't do anything until obama has approved
Whats do you know of the blockade on the Gaza strip
Know my heart goes out to those on each and every ship
May the 31st the day not aid bt blood reached the shores
respect to the burried who's leagacy's will see an end to the wars
Rachel Corrie's now a sign of courage & good will,
She was too a girl with a great dream to fulfill,
Died as she tried to save a family home from destruction,
By the same people guilty, of war crimes, deaths, & abduction.

ok, this morning I listened to a little bit of radio - Radio 5 live on 909 Medium Wave. The topic was pets. Harmless stuff... or so I thought.

First of all it started off sensibly and they were talking about pet healthcare insurance etc and more or less mentioning the same issues that the Americans were having with normal healthcare insurance.

But then they moved onto pampering the pets and this was... freaky?

Inshallah.

i dont ever want to travel without a mahraam.

this is the thing

On friday i went on the Year 8 trip as a staff for a day. Meeting at 5am and back at 10.30pm.

so i needed to pray Duhr and because i nod off in the bus (at 5am) i lost my wudu.

then we get on the coach, toilet WAY TOO BUSY. (unfortunatly we werent the only school who decided to go to france that day...)

then we get to Calais. and drive to Boulogne. and stop at this fortified town. 12.35. still too early im thinking. Duhr in france is at 2pm.

Today was our first day out in the community fund raising for Gaza, because as i've clearly shown in other blogs I care & I really wana do summat to help the peopple.

We brought a stall at the local islamic school's summer fair. We had mendhi & water bomb games going off. We made £123.48 exactly, it lasted 3 hours from 1 till 4 and I think it went quite well mashallah.

We raised a good amount of money & we had a good day i'm absolutely shattered but it was a very good day. From being drenched by little kids with water baloons to talking to brothers & sisters about whats happening in Gaza and their views on everything.
