M.I.A

Hi guys,

It’s been such a loooooong time. My last post was written in January and it is now September :o.  I am truly sorry for my lack of content but I assure you that I have good reasons which I plan to touch on briefly in this post.

Life has been sooo busy. As ye know, I got married late last year. My Nikkah (Islamic wedding) took place during my two weeks Christmas break from uni. The first week was spent getting last minute things for the wedding. The second week was spent with my husband, and then it was straight back to uni :(.

 

After my nikkah, I went straight back into the bubble that was my postgrad.  I was wrecked but I was happy. I presumed my tiredness was due to the fact that I hadn’t gotten a proper rest break. The fatigue persisted and seemed to worsen.  I remember being so tired that I could barely hold the phone to my ear. Something was wrong-  I was/am pregnant!!!

Pregnancy coupled with my postgrad gave me little time to do anything else.  Pregnancy came with a whole lot of changes that I was NOT prepared for. There were so many changes, I’d need to dedicate a separate post to it (I plan to in the near future). My course increased in intensity and so did my symptoms.  It sounds like a lame excuse but I assure you that it is not. Anyway, I am back and hoping to be a lot more consistent from now on.

Thanking you so much for your patience and support 🙂

Till next time
