I'm a journalist who's done time as a reporter, columnist, and a few years at The Washington Post.com. I left the Big Time J-World to start my own blog so I could write more, sleep more, continue the hijab fashion videos I started while at Post.com, and have zero income...wait, that last part wasn't supposed to be part of this new gig, but it is what it is.
I love my family, my Camelbak water bottle, and a good sweaty workout. If you saw me, you wouldn't guess that I was a HUGE WWF (now known as WWE) fan when I was a kid. My dad took me to a showdown of all my spandex-wearing, chest-slapping heroes when I was a kid, and I nearly died when Jake "The Snake" Roberts got bit by his own snake (and taken out of the arena on a stretcher.) When I got a little older, my sister told me the whole thing was staged -- and I nearly killed her.
I'm a newlywed, got married the summer of '08 to my childhood bff, and every once in a while my blog will reflect what life has been like so far as a wife...and daughter-in-law... dunn.dunnn.DUNNNN!
I've lived on or visited five out of the seven continents, and I plan on exploring the rest of this beautiful world the moment I get a paying job.
I'm an amateur photographer (read: my point-and-shoot is my best friend), and I love all things style related: clothes, ideas, accessories, home goods -- and I blog about that stuff too.
Oh, I'm also a pretty big sports fan, and in our house, we bleed Lakers purple and gold -- AND my husband is from New England; it's sort of like the world's greatest juxtaposition.
I was sort of a punk when I was younger, and for the last five years I have been putting myself through a self-imposed, religious rehab program. I don't swear on my blog (probably as a result of my God-loving transformation) so if you're hungry for a good eff-word every so often, I suggest you come to my blog, and head straight for my blog roll.
