The hardest thing to do is write myself up, its so awkward but here it goes, kinda....I was born and raised in New York City. I am the oldest of eight. I have five sisters and two brothers who are all unique and lovely and at times drive me crazy but I love them dearly. Islam is very important to me as it has guided me throughout my life. I think of myself as a moderate in my religious views. I became a hijabi when I was twelve years old and am committed to it but I believe there has to be a mix of work and play in life. I love to sing along to my music as I'm cooking. Ok here goes a guily admission I am a geek (shhh, dont tell) I love all marvel comic movies and all things Doctor Who and because I am a girl I love my romance novels too . If you were to ask my friends they would say I have two sides to my personality one is that I am a cool nerd. The other i was recently told I had to add this is a modern day metroplitan hijabi. I'm the type of person who loves to help people solve their problems. I really enjoy cooking and feeding others. I'm a little reserved with people I don't know but I am very loyal to those close friends I have. I enjoy laughing but not at the expense of others I guess that's kind of who I am on a personal level
