I had the chance to be interviewed by Radical Middle Way, who showcase the work of visual and performing artists.
When the lovely Marium asked me if she can showcase me as a designer on their website, I was very flattered by it.
I invited her over to my room, which also happens to be my studio (inshallah I will post about how my room is my studio in the coming year/2012). She recorded my awful voice, and took some photographs of me and the 'studio'.

While she was doing that I took some photographs of her :D

Here is the slideshow:

How convenient is it for me to post a review of "Tuesdays with Morrie" on a tuesday? Coincidence? I think not! I read the book in October, and I am writing this in October...but scheduled for december. Why? Because so many events happened (or happens in my current presence) during November and beginning of December, not to forget work and university. Morrie just had to wait until today.

Where do I start? It's the number 1 best international book, and it deserves to be that! I would not give this book justice by trying to explain the story and therefore I will not write anything about it...nor will I try to explain how amazing it is. I think its a book that you must read for yourself to experience the story, it is emotional, warm and rather overwhelming for all the right reasons.

It lit my world and made me view things so much differently. We seriously need more people like Morrie in our current society.

The Yemen Culture fair event in aid of Islamic Relief Yemen Crisis Appeal. It was rather good, the food was delicious, it was for a great cause, the people were lovely.

There were some stalls selling lovely stuff such as hijabs, abayas, other products and delicious cupcakes!

There were some wonderful photographs, art and traditional clothing.

I let the pictures I took of the event for themselves.

Masjid Bilal is in Madinah/Saudi Arabia, very close to Al Masjid Al-Nabawi.

The location is pretty authentic, and right underneath the masjid is a market and a shopping centre (sort of good but weird too...)

The praying area are on the first floor, with an open roof on the centre, and men's section on the left and women's on the right. I very much liked the architecture of the masjid, the sun streaming in, the flawless marble floor, and the traditional red carpet. Beautiful!

Not many people could confirm that, but rumours has it that the masjid was named after Bilal Ibn Rabah Al-Habashi, the first muezzin.

I love colour and 99% of my photographs are in colour, but for once I decided on going black & white. I have been admiring black & white photographs for some time, but I never had the guts to take my own black& white photographs, until recently...

These are photographs of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, an interesting place to see in Paris...I thought the use of black & white captures the place and the moment, not to mention, it was cloudy and raining that day too.
