Posted on 22 May, 20135 June, 2015 by Ikhlas

So life has suddenly become more hectic. I don’t know why though. I haven’t exactly been doing anything new lately, but between shopping for shoes and new makeup for my cousin’s wedding, practising dances, an Islamic convention, cooking, and cleaning, I haven’t had very much time to sit back and relax.
