A small insight to my life

Born in London and originally Iraqi, it is hard to adapt to both cultures and languages but somehow I manage (nevertheless, I do tend to panic when I am FORCED to speak Arabic). BUT that's just my background! I hope to open up and share a lot more about myself as well as the world around me and the things I witness in daily life that fascinate me.

Quick (not really) disclaimer: I am a makeup addict. Ever since I was younger my parents forbade me from wearing any (still love you both!) and my theory is that when you deprive a child of something, they end up wanting it ('it' being anything) more, and that was exactly me. To be honest they are still not too keen on my makeup loving but I do manage to get away with it (at times). 

Anyhoo, I am currently a student completing my A levels at Whitmore sixth form and Stanmore college. The jump from GCSE's to A levels was daunting, to say the least (but we'll come back to that later on). And if you're wondering, the AS subjects I chose are Psychology, Philosophy, History, and English Lit. 

All in all, my life at the moment is pretty ordinary but I just like to add a little bit of colour sometimes and make it seem flowery even when it really isn't!
