Random Interactions

I was sitting outside the conference room today waiting for a lecture on learning disabilities, when a guy sat down to tie his shoelaces and noticed me reading my psych textbook. He asked me what I could tell about him from what I could see. Slightly startled and not quite sure where this was heading, all I could come up with was that he seemed nice (which was true). In return, he told me what he could tell about me: that I still had some way to go with regards to studying and training, but I would be successful, that I would have a good husband and three children and also that I was nice. After leaving, he came back again to tell me that my children will be beautiful. Lol. Inshallah!

Later on in the day after a placement in a child psychiatry outpatient clinic in Harrow, an elderly lady on the bus starting talking to me, gave me her number and told me to come round some time (and no, she doesn't have any sons so she wasn't 'scouting'). Before I got off the bus, she told me that you can tell a lot about a person from their face and that by reading mine, she could tell I would be very successful. Not quite sure on the accuracy of either individuals' assessments today, but no harm in making dua :)

On another note, my mum and sister have jetted off to Kashmir. It's going to be quiet around here and I'll be spending a very lonely Eid at home. Sniff. However, I'm actually really happy for them because my sister wanted to go and it'll also be the first my mum will do Eid with her father after 29 years inshallah!

Bare love to my mum. I already miss her <3
