Let's get this started!

11 Things About Me

1.   I love tea. In fact, I love it so much hat have to stop myself from making a cuppa every time I enter the kitchen. xD
2.   I used to be a secret Twihard. I still am a bit, but I'm much less into Twilight now than I was back then lol. The thing about Twilight is that yes it was poorly written, and yes Bella is an utter pain in the neck (I'm so witty :P), but honestly.. I think Stephenie Meyer had a good idea. It was just poorly executed. I sometimes wonder how it would have turned out if J. K. Rowling had come up with the idea.. you can bet your bottom dollar it would have been amazing!
3.   I am of Pakistani descent, but I tend to get confused with people of other ethnicities/races. I've had people come up to me and ask me things in arabic or turkish, usually asking for directions at uni and I just look at them.. flummoxed. Makes me feel bad that I can't help them xD
4.   I like to think I used to be quite good at basketball, despite being quite short. I really should start playing again..
5.   I love Star Trek! I started watching TV again when I was flicking through the channels and saw that the first ever episode of the original series was on  - they've been digitally remastered and everything!
6.   Although my first language is English, I am fluent in Urdu, and can understand Hindi, Potwari, and Punjabi.
7.   One of my favourite games to play when I was younger was Spyro!
8.   I love cake rusks. NOM.
9.   I love giving gifts. It makes me happy knowing I've made someone else happy!
10.   I am very shy in person. I get over it eventually, and I'm good at hiding it - I do this thing where I act like I'm confident, even though on the inside I'm dying of shyness.. I'm odd I know. :P
11. This took me a really long time to write up. I find it hard to talk about myself lol >.<

11 Questions For Me To Answer

Onto the answers to Hannahs questions..

1. What is your favourite post on my blog?!
Your 'OOTD: Double Denim.. ish' post. You look so cute in it! Haha (^__^)

2. Do you class yourself as a bblogger or a fblogger?
I'd lump myself in with the bbloggers more than the fbloggers. Although now that I think about it i don't think I belong in either.. hmm.

3. Why did you start your blog?
I wanted to share with other people my knowledge on skincare and to help my fellow muslimahs on how to dress more modestly because I can't go clothes shopping with them all can I? :P

4. Where do you get your inspiration from?
Uhh. I don't have a specific place to be honest.. 

5. Have you been watching the olympics?
Yeyuh! I'm actually really sad it's over. It brought the whole of the UK together, and made us less miserable than usual. I was seriously having Olympics withdrawal symptoms. Thank God for the Paralympics! Those athletes are amazing. I was watching them playing blindfolded football earlier.. they still play better than I do..
