hey idk if you know whats going on around the uk rn but theres lots of islamophobic riots happening rn, but rather theyre targeting anyone who isnt white, im not aware of any of ur religious beliefs but i do know that ur poc and i wanted to check if you and your family were okay and safe!! pls be careful when you go out, always carry ur keys between ur fingers if pepper spray isnt available to (i dont think we’re even allowed that here, i keep seeing people carry it so many we are?) everyone who’s reading this and is based in the uk pls stay safe and dont go out alone!!!
YES IVE SEEN IT……. 😭😭 it’s mad crazy, my dad literally told us all to stay inside yesterday just to be safe… but thank you for checking up on me 🥺 me and my family are safe alhamdullilah, our house is in a quiet neighborhood anyways (not the quietest ends… but my neighbourhood is) its honestly scary, and the fact that they’re targeting poc/muslims because THEY came to the conclusion that it was muslims who are dangerous is insane i hate this country so bad man 😭😭 the police ain’t doing shit either like omg we’re in the gutter
i’ll stay safe and you do too!!! idk if pepper spray is legal here but keep body spray or deodorant on you in case, i’m sure that will do the trick too 🤗 most importantly make sure to not wander alone too much in these time, they’re actually crazy man

It feels good to be petty sometimes, especially when you have been wronged and still chose the high road. I stuck with my old job because I genuinely loved my immediate supervisor and the field was challenging, however I reported to someone else on paper and she made my life miserable. When I left, I heard even more confirming stories about how I made the right decision because it wasn’t just me who had a poor experience. I wonder how some of the most toxic people end up in leadership, but in many ways I also know that its those toxic qualities that enable them in the first place.
I gave my heart and soul to that job and only left (after 3 years!) because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was even okay with being paid less than the value I brought because I genuinely enjoyed it. Now, the person they hired after me only lasted a year as I just saw the posting go up again. I remember how sad I was to leave and even had a candid conversation with my immediate supervisor to find a solution but alas. It was truly their loss.
What God did for me was move me up the food chain and I’m in much better position now, alhamdullilah. Seeing the update today is so reaffirming that God’s plan always works out even if we can’t see it.

I think part of growing up is realising that life won’t always go the way you want and that’s okay. Because ‘unfortunately ‘ life isn’t supposed to be perfect, that’s how dunya works. And for our own sake we should get used to it somehow. If something doesn’t work then let it be, Allah knows best why that didn’t happen. Reminds me of how in Islam we are taught about being grateful in all situations — how amazing to just say Alhamdullilah regardless and just move on. I know it sounds easier said than done but trust me it’s not easy at all! But asking ‘why’ just brings disappointments and sadness which will drain our energy and make us feel more miserable. So for our own sake we should leave it to Allah and not burden our souls more. Alhamdullilah that Allah is the All-Controller and the All-Knowing. May Allah ﷻ make everything easier for all of us, answer our du'as, guide us towards that which pleases Him, and may He bless us with what is good for us. Aameen

low-key sad June
After the cooking day (13th) I had a big fight with my parents. First I didn't call them and didn't tell them that I will be done at 7, then I kinda messed up on the way home cuz I forgot to tell my dad to let the power on since we have food in the fridge. And after that....worse, I came home to find my mom literally FURIOUS. She told me that I really messed up, I didn't text her enough time and wasn't online when she texted me and I didn't have time to clean the house properly after the girls left. We had this annoying dinner when everyone is silent (of course I didn't eat anything and soon went to the kitchen cuz I was mad at them too).
And the thing that got me super mad and sad and every negative emotion ever is that after dinner my mom was like nOw wE wiLL gO tHerE anD cLeAn afTeR u. As if I didn't clean ON PURPOSE. I insisted on cleaning everything the next day or at least going with them to do all the job myself but they didn't agree and told me to stay home. So technically....it was their choice to clean after me, I told them I'll clean it the next day morning. But that time I felt super guilty which then made me sad too and I cried myself to sleep. Messed up. Literally nothing that bad happened but as always, she made a whole drama. I swear everytime she does it she acts like I AM THE drama queen.
Anyway, Eid came soon and we're preparing for it. I think my grandma told them about me crying because they both didn't say a single thing about it in the morning. We were preparing presents for everyone and blah blah blah.
This Ramadan, and this Eid Kurban I don't feel like celebrating... because of Palestine and Sudan.
But we went to my grandma's house for a barbeque, my cousins came and we did henna tattoos together and then my father got a parrot as his present. He is really into birds and he looked really happy. He still is, I swear he is literally in love with this Jako (I love him too but I was more excited about my dad being so happy because these months he wasn't doing well with his job and everything)
Days passed buy, I mostly got money for Eid and didn't really get much material presents.
Yesterday was a scary day. Really really scary. My dad got into a car accident. I cried so much when I heard about it. Happily, he wasn't hurt much, just a bit on his arm and neck. Now he's better.
Because he had to sell his car five months ago, he was using my mom's car. Now my mom's car is absolutely crushed by the accident
(it's really REALLY lucky that my dad even survived because the whole car except for his seat was literally crushed)
We used to have two cars, now we have none - that doesn't make me sad tho. I still feel so happy my dad is alive and okay. Alhamdullilah.
And...I realized that anytime, anything terrible can happen and it can take all of my happiness. Anytime, anyone I love can die. And I don't want to think about it. I would rather die than living my parents' deaths....I feel scared. I can't imagine what would happen if he didn't survive. I don't want to think about it but I can't help myself.
Unfortunately, life is always moving forward. Never back to the good old days when we were fine and didn't worry much about money and everything. Never back to school girl era where I was just enjoying my friends' company. Never back to times when we had things to talk about with my friend group.
I can try to keep our friendship the same but....it seems like we have less and less bonding with each day. Less things to talk about, less things to trust....less things to ask.
Can't blame anyone, life just moves forward, and never back.
