Fast forward, being a form 4 & form 5 student in sekolah agama with many tazkirah sessions made me someone who loves to write in notebooks (to jot down tazkirah takeaways) hence the urge to buy them again and again.
And when I reached my early adulthood, I've fallen in love with writing whatever I have in mind, be it in diaries or blogs. I've found my happiness in spilling out my thoughts, ideas, feelings, experiences, and almost everything. The secret stuffs would go straight into my diaries 🤫 and the ilmiah stuffs would be published to my blogs.
Let's cut the story short; when I was 27, I started my own hijab business with the tagline "empowering muslimah". My goal wasn't only to sell but to inspire other muslimahs and encourage them to be proud of the muslimah 'label' that they have, as well as to keep on trying to be the best version of themselves.
Since then I realized that I love everything about muslimah including the merchandises, stationeries, stickers and such.
Books? Hmm where should I begin... In short, growing up has brought me to the path where I am constantly in need of reading.
To conclude, let me just say that the book journaling IG that I've created is a comfort space dedicated for the little me, teenage me and current me. 🥲
I have many IG accounts and most of them are work related. So to have this kind of account simply to celebrate a part of myself feels so good and for me; it's an act of self love. ♥️
