There was a flood in my house!
I'm not sure, but it seems to me that I exaggerate a LOT. I feel like I have to warn my readers hi mom to believe only 70% of what I say and write because it's part of my culture to exaggerate stories. I know it's people's natural tendency to exaggerate but I do it in almost everything I story I have ever told.And when you're done, let me know in the comment section if it's just me who exaggerates, if it's cultural or if it's a universal thing.

Hearteu
What an amazing journey. The only proof I have from the trip are the pictures I took and the fading henna on my hand....

Is it really over?
If anything, I can now tell you that eight weeks is a very short amount of time. It feels like yesterday was the first day of class. Below is my 'thank you' speech.
Enjoy the cheesy string of words that may feel too sappy to read. This is a warning. :p

Learning a new language
We made a video talking about five language tips we've accumulated over the years. We filmed this while fasting so bear with us if we seem tired, sleepy and if our sentences make no sense whatsoever--this is normal. :D

It's a hijabee thing
Headscarf, hijab, same thing. Most hijabees (myself included) end up having one too many scarves at home and no where to store them. Well, in my house, we have several drawers for scarves/hijabs in different rooms. Thus I ended up wearing the same five scarves all the time: white, off-white, cream, beige, creamy beige. This summer I've been experimenting a lot with different hijabs styles and colors so I'm not limited. The first and most important step: organize my hijabs.
