Seriously, all I think about is weddings! I’m not even engaged to anyone yet, or have anyone in the picture, but all I seem to do is collect random wedding pictures, follow wedding blogs and just think about weddings and marriage constantly.
I know I want to get married soon (inshallah – God willing), but I haven’t yet managed to find someone who wants to marry a short, curvy, geeky, hijab wearing smiley girl! Right now I’m just grateful my job has been extended for 6 months, but I’m still temporary. I can still be let go at any moment in time. It’s thrilling but also scary to not have any permanency in life. I think my word for 2012 will be Doubt, doubt that I was ever going to make it this far, doubt my dad would live after a major operation, doubt that I can fulfill the potential I know I have.
2011 was definitely Achievement. I achieved so much last year and I am so grateful for my Masters degree, but now the dust has settled and real life is biting me. I think the word for 2013 will be Waiting. Waiting for my prince to come, waiting for the right job, waiting to buy a car. Just constantly Waiting.
So, how’s that for a re-introduction to blogging!

It’s not a bad thing to be thinking about the future. To have wants and wishes of what your future will entail. Trust me, I’m there too. I remember thinking I knew exactly where I was going to be when I was 24 years old. Well, 21 year old me was thinking those things. Funny how things change!
2012′s not over yet. Don’t let the doubt cloud it over too much. Something might just be around the corner.

Thinking about what you want is the beginning to getting what you want – right?
Don’t worry, InshAllah when Mr. Right comes, you’ll have all your wedding planning done – which means you can get married faster! Haha
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
