1.   A nervous habit I have is     blinking my eyes continuously that sometimes others might think I have some ophthalmic problem :P

2.   Something that makes me sad is  to see people criticize no matter what good others would do! To see people never thankful to Allah's blessings on them because they are discontent no matter how much they get! SAD.

3.  Today I am thankful for   everything I have! My family, my studies, my new job and so many uncounted blessings of Allah on me.Alhumdulelah!.

4. My favorite room in my house is    my bedroom :D its cozy :)

5.  I can't stand   liars,people who can't fulfill their words and promises...!!

6.  If I had an extra $100 to spend on whatever I wanted today I would    go buy the best-est gifts for ami and daddy :) they deserve the best from us! :)
