June/July Recap

While taking a shower this morning, showers are usually the place where I get most of my thinking done, I realized how I haven't blogged for a while (I actually it had been since January) and made a mental list of everything that has happened that needs to mentioned. Then Tabitha texts me and ask me why I haven't blogged in such a while. Woah. She read my mind. Anyhow, lets start the recap journey.

After Bushra's birthday, we celebrated Inaayah's FIRST birthday. Aww look at that cutie pie mashallah. We got a, wait for it, moon bounce! A quick warning about moon bounces with slides: do NOT try diving onto the slide. There will be pain afterwards. Severe pain. 




Sometime after this birthday bash, we received some pictures from the wedding from ARW Studio, who by the way are amazing. This one is my favorite; we took this a few minutes before the end of the night. FINALLY the six of us. The weird thing is, when the six of us get together, I always feel like someone is missing; one, two, three, four, five, six, nope, no one is missing. 



In May, two of the coolest people in the world graduated: that would be me and Shahroz. Shahroz graduated from GMU and my law school misery finally came to an end. Damn, I look good, even with all those grays. 

I got a week to enjoy my graduation before Bar prep classes started. Woohoo, Virginia bar exam. 




Then came June and Ghanva graduated from Woodbridge High. I have pictures of her but that would mean finding my camera, loading them onto the computer and that requires too much effort, I am very comfy where I am right now. Lets just take a moment and congratulate Ghanva. Woohoo.  


We then celebrated Sadi's first dholki. Gasp. My bff is getting married. 



Which brings me to Ramadan Mubarak! We started Ramadan yesterday, others started today. I don't understand how its 2014 and we still cannot agree on which day Ramadan starts. It shouldn't be that hard to the fact that the moon has a well known and certain cycle. Regardless, I wish everyone has a safe and healthy Ramadan, stay hydrated! 

As a side note, what are the chances that the 30 days preceding the Bar exam are the most holiest of the year and Eid is on the first day of the exam! Woah. 

And the lastly, we had a pre-birthday celebration at the National Harbor with dinner and a ride on the ferris wheel. Then an iftaari/birthday party at Nosheen's yesterday. Can't believe I'm 25 alhamdulillah. Time has gone by so fast these past few years.
