Let's Paint a Mountain Landscape in Acrylics!
Hey Everyone!! :)
If you haven't already noticed I uploaded the YouTube video for that mountain blog!! Yes you can go and check it out on my YouTube channel!
Please note that the video is in pictures however I am narrating through it so that you can all understand how to paint it. I apologise for not filming it. I would love to but I don't have a video camera and I use my phone but it doesn't have enough space. So I decided to just leave it as a picture video. I hope it's ok, one day I will buy a camera and make better videos! :) But for now it's good to start from the bottom and start with something simple as well.

Health update and something creative hopefully
Hey everyone! :)
Ok so after telling you all about the things that have happened, this week just seems to be one of my busiest week. I had two hospital appointments today, one was for my physio and the other was a consultation with my doctor.
Today was my first proper session in physio today, I did this relaxsation technique to relax my whole body. My physio-therapist is amazing, her voice was really calming (I nearly fell asleep) and honestly saying it really helped. My muscles were a lot more relaxed and calming and it felt like they lost so much tension and it felt heavy. It really did help. There were breathing exercises and a tense and releasing technique too. It really helped to calm my muscles although I noticed that both my hands were heavy and then it started to swell up.
At the end of the session my body was completely relaxed except for my hands which were in pain and heavy as well as swollen a bit. However when I when to see my doctor, he told me that it could be a skin related thing and refered me to the dermitologist. I had no idea that it could be something like this and how it could change things, to know that it's not related with arthritis is relieving however to know that I might have something else is a little worrying too. But I am going to keep a positive outlook on this. So far my body feels relaxed and calm now.
As creative, I think I might do a watercolour today and thinking about filming it but I'll see what I can do. I have been eager to do one and I think this would be a good way to go for it.
Ok well I shall get going now, I shall talk to you all soon.
Take care and think positive

I got dressed up and me and my younger sister took some pictures together. It was really nice. Today was also my younger brother graduation. So it was very interesting day.
Here is the bangles that I wore for Eid I really like them and I felt pretty as well! :)
Can you there is a rainbow! I managed to take a picture of it! It was on Saturday evening when me and and a few members of my family was heading to visit my dad's friend and their family who we're pretty close to.

So I found out about this art group from watching one of my favourite Youtuber, and she mentioned how a lot of artists and creative peopl are joing to do this thing called #lovesummerart so what oyu have to do is create a video incoorporating the hastag from the 17th-20th July 2015.

Ramadan Diary - Days 22- 29(Thursday 9th July - Thursday 16th July 2015 )
Hey Everyone! :)
I decided to pile the last few days together because in some of the days nothing really interesting, important or new happened. I do apologise for not making it a daily post sort of thing but I think keeping it like this (this year) will be better since the days have gone and I am only trying to catch on the days.
So the rest of that week from Thurs 9th July - Sun 12th July. It wasn't so bad and there was nothing new or exciting happening. I didn't fast because I planned to fast on the 27th day (The night of Power).
Monday 13th July 2015 - Tuesday 14th July 2015 (Day 26/27)
So on the night of Monday 13th July (the first day of not going to class since it was over) it was the night of power. So I stayed up all night reading the the Qur'an as much as I can and felt wonderful! I read the Surah Qadr (The night of Power) which is very rewarding. It is said that this night whomever decided to worship and keep Allah in mind they will be rewarded that of a thousand nights.
It was amazing, my health didn't even affect me as much and I was able to read the Qur'an a lot as well. I wanted to put henna on, however because it was too late by the time we finished eating and praying I decided to do henna the next day.
The 27th day of Ramadan, considered to be the most rewarded. I kept my fast and Alhamdulilah it was great! I didn't feel that bad. My struggle wasn't so bad and my efforts that day was good too.
Wednesdat 15th July 2015 - Thursday 16th July 2015 (Day 28/29)
The next two days was a very busy couple of days. Since we knew Eid was on Friday we had a lot of work to do. The tidying of the house, cooking, preparing out own Eid clothes. There was a lot to do. So much so that we didn't have time to think much about our fast but more about the the preparations. But that didn't mean we forgot about preparing our Iftar. I helped where I can here and there.
Until the day Eid finally came and it was our last Iftar of the year. And I found out about something creative.
I shall talk to you about it in my next blog post, until then take care and think positive.

Ramadan Diary - Day 21 (Wednesday 8th July 2015)
Hey Everyone! :)
So today was a normal day. I have been trying to do classes over the past few weeks and today is our last day. It was sort of like a finish up session with paperworks to fill out nothing too extreme.
I enjoyed it and it was nice, of course over the few weeks I had problems with my health so at times it was difficult to go to class. I met some wonderful people there and I will cherish them forever! :) We planned to eat out which is nice, just a relaxing get together. I'm excited for this so I can't wait to go and meet everyone again.
Fasting wise, everyone around me was fasting and most people know about my health so they would ask me if I'm ok and that I should be eating and all. I felt a little sad and uncomfortable honestly, not because I didn't appreciate their thoughts and concerns but more like I felt like I was burdening them which I don't like to do. Even if they did say anything like it doesn't matter or that I should be able to talk to them about it. I just don't want to make anyone feel like they should worry for me. But I need to learn that worry and concern is a package that comes with friend an family who care about you.
Honestly, I do feel loved and I appreciate every moment of it. It's amazing. I am so fortunate to have people who care about me and I can't think of no one but Allah to thank. He is always looking out for me and making sure that I am on the right path.
I shall catch you all in my next blog.

Ramadan Diary - Day 20 (Tuesday 7th July 2015)
Hello Everyone! :D
Masha'Allah! Day 20! Can you believe there is only about a week to go until Ramadan is over? It's so fast and amazing!
Today was a casual day nothing exciting just another day. I hope you had a wonderful day today. I think the main struggle this Ramadan is the thirst from the heat. The weather being hot yet deceitful with the cloudy sky.
Be careful in this weather you guys because you could fall ill. So try not to get too excited with the weather you guys.
I felt like doing something creative but I still haven't done anything, so I need some sort of outlet. I will definitely do something creative. So I'll leave it as it is for now I shall talk to you all in the next blog post.
