My summer 2014

This summer I was accompanied by the most wonderful, sweetest cousin of mines from Norway. So I spent my time being a tourist and guide!
Believe me it was fun.
But there were ups and downs.
Some hillarious days, and some rainy days (But that didn't stop us)

The ups (+)

-I live very close the heart of London so getting around was fairly easy, and I pretty much knew all the hotspots.
-The weather was lovely most of the time
-We got discounts (students) almost everywhere
-During summer there were so many events and opportunity
-Food just tastes much more savouring during summer holiday
-Being a tourist meant PHOTOGRAPHY! (YAY)

The downs (-)
-Travel costs are ridiculous for tourists (Tfl need to sort something out for them)
-Central London don't have enough Halal restaurants (frustrating because fish gets boring after a while)
-The weather had bipolar
-Not enough mosque's or prayer places in Central!
-It's always fun to be tourists as a group rather than just a few, but nonetheless it was amaze.

Here are some pictures that basically sum it up! xoxo- Comment and tell me about your summer!

ALS- Ice bucket Challenge

http://www.mndassociation.org/

Everyone go check out this website, and donate to the ALS organisation instead of throwing a bucket of water over your head.
As fun as it seems, it is starting to bother me, not the fact that people are doing the icebucketchallenge, but what bothers me is that a lot of ignorant fools are just nominating each other for the ALSIBC and not even donating, or not even spreading awareness of ALS. And this just hurts me. This is it. This is the same thing for Gaza, I feel like we just spread and share but we don't do, no donating, no aiding, no fundraising, just all talk. And that is what bothers me. People's innaction.

We can make a difference by donating, and explaining these things, not being idiotic and ignorant and having fun with the ALSIBC.

Sometimes

I just feel like I try so hard, with meaningless things, but I put so much effort and will and want into it; that I havnt acknowledged it may not go how I want it to go. 

Do you ever feel like you care too much about people who really couldn't care less about you, and not out of spite but because of distance. 😪

A level Results 2014




CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE!
First of all can I just say a BIG congratulations to all the A-level students in completing a hard 2 years of Sixth Form/College honestly these 2 years have been mad intense, and very challenging, but this is it, this is our outcome.
They say 'What you put in is what you get out' And this is very true. I guess we deserve this as it is our fate, and we should celebrate at our triumph. BECAUSE WE ARE GOING TO UNIVERSITY WOOOOO.

Locked in Regents Park

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
My cousin and I just came back from baker street, and that was all I could say *Wow*
We got on the train and I said to my cousin let me know any station that you want to get off at, which ever station sounded interesting would be the station we would get off at. So we were hardly on the train for long and my cousin said she wanted to get off at Baker Street, so we jumped off and scurried through the streets of London, more so exciting because now I get to be a tourist meaning I can snap as much photos as I like.
So we were feeling peckish and headed into Subways to buy a sandwhich, and so the man that was serving me was average looking but he was short. So I obviously didn't look twice at him but he must have been looking at me because eww I could see him staring at me, and so I ordered our meal and out of curiosity I asked him "Is it halal?" and he replied "What? Me or the Meat?" eww.com ! I just frowned feeling yucky.com but my cousin who was sitting down was laughing her head off. We finished our food and headed back out and wondered around for ages taking pictures and pictures and roaming around like headless chickens until Maghrib prayer came on. Luckily Regents Park Mosque was near us so we hurried along to the mosque just in time, and by the door these two pretty sisters approached us and handed us a bag full of Asian sweets (yum) and kindly asked us to place it in the mosque as a form of charity I dont really know (I'm not a regular). So we went inside this wonderfully constructed holy Mosque and prayed the prayer, took some pictures of the beautiful Chandelier=

--- Here's a clear picture from google

-----------
Anyways, After we prayed it got dark very quickly and we didn't want to go home already, so we decided to take a stroll through the Park (Regents Park) it was lovely, the lake is calming, the swans are elegant, and the noise of life just stops when you take a breather by the bench, I tried to take photos but it was too dark, here are some photos I found online=

---------------
So we sat down and started to talk, one conversation led to another, and less people were surrounding us, another conversation to another, now all the people had gone, and after a while of dark park convo we heard some screaming but ignored it because it was far away, and then we chilled for a while and before you knew it the Isha Adhan from the mosque went off and we decided to leave.

Now here is the trouble. We couldn't leave, because they locked us in. The gates were sealed and locked. And that was the shouting we heard earlier. Eeek! We had to jump over the fence?
I wear a jilbab and she was wearing a maxi dress, this was double trouble!

Do you see those gates along the rail, well basically it was dark, and we had to jump over one at a time, and the people were looking at us as if we were bad, haha it was crazyyy! Her dress ripped on both sides and luckily my jilbab was alive and fine!

That sums up our mad night.

Dear Viewer,

HEY GUYS BASICALLY ... I need more people to engage with my blog so please feel free to comment anonymously, and ask me questions!
Just yesterday I received my highest blog view count going unto 3000!
WHICH I AM SO HAPPY FOR! but what I want to know is ...
Who are these invisible ghosts?

Come Out Come Out!

So I was thinking, why not hold a Question and Answer, where you can ask me any questions!
And I will take a new approach to my blog posts this month, whereby you can ask me anonymous questions and I will wholesomely reply in a post stating 'Dear AppleGirl' for instance! I have done this previously on my Tumblr page where people would ask me for advice, but please dont ask me questions where proffesionals need to step in, i am just a girl who has a passion for writting, listening, reading and oh talking! #Toodles!

Tumblr page to ask Questions! --> http://jilbabydiaries.tumblr.com/
