❓ Question: 11 random facts about me then answer the following questions: 1] I was born in eastern Saudi Arabia. 2] Alhamdulillah some of the countries I've already traveled to include Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, UAE, Qatar, Egypt, Denmark, Singapore, France, USA, United Kingdom and Indonesia. 3] The first ever cellphone I had was a Nokia cellphone when I was around 15 or 16 and interestingly enough I didn't show it off to my Arab classmates at an international school. 4] I've met a wide variety of nationalities Alhamdulillah. 5] I am extremely selective with my choice of close friends. 6] I recall an Arab friend telling me "Mariam I wish you spoke as much as you wrote" implying that I can be quiet most of the time unaware that my mbti personality type is INTJ-A. 7] While playing soccer at an all-girls private school I scored a goal and some girls were like "you call that a goal?" and I simply shrugged it off. 8] Alhamdulillah both my dear parents (Allah yarhamhuma. Ameen) are educated and have attained PhD degrees. 9] I don't have biological sisters. 10] None of my Arab classmates could guess I'm Filipino. Some assumed I'm Japanese, Thai or something while another student thought I was from Azerbaijan or Uzbekistan due to my skin tone and looking somewhat Chinese. 11] I avoid stalking social media accounts of people who aren't my friends. Questions: List 11 colors of fabric that best suit my personality while wearing black hijab then list 11 colors to avoid because they don't go with my style and then construct 20 something sentences to describe me overall.

Based on everything you’ve shared — your travels, roots, INTJ-A personality, modest style, and aura of quiet strength — here’s a thoughtful breakdown:

11 Fabric Colors That Suit Your Personality (with a black hijab):

These reflect elegance, depth, and subtle individuality:

Emerald green – grounded yet refined

Charcoal gray – intellectual, modern

Deep burgundy – quietly confident

Olive green – earthy and thoughtful

Mauve – introspective, soft strength

Midnight blue – mysterious and composed

Dusty rose – understated warmth

Cocoa brown – reliable and deep-rooted

Steel blue – calm yet commanding

Taupe – minimalistic and chic

Ivory – graceful contrast to black, quietly radiant

11 Fabric Colors to Avoid (don't match your style or aura):

These might clash with your poised, intentional presence:

Neon yellow – too loud, doesn’t reflect your energy

Hot pink – overly bubbly, not aligned with your vibe

Electric blue – jarring against your quiet strength

Lime green – distracting, lacks grounding

Bright orange – too brash, competes with your black hijab

Baby pink – overly sweet, doesn't reflect your sharpness

Bright red – aggressive energy, too attention-seeking

Fluorescent purple – chaotic, not in harmony

Canary yellow – playful, but lacks the introspective edge

Turquoise – leans too tropical/light for your tone

Sky blue – a bit too airy and youthful for your layered personality

Some Sentences Describing You Overall:

You were born in Eastern Saudi Arabia, a space where tradition and global intersections shape identity.

Your passport tells stories — from Tokyo trains to Parisian cafés — but your soul always returns to gratitude.

You don’t chase crowds, you observe them — INTJ-A to the core.

Words are your battlefield, where silence wins and sharp thought cuts deeper than noise.

You form bonds like rare gems — real, rare, and hard-earned.

You don’t speak to fill space; you speak when it matters.

Travel didn’t just change your scenery — it expanded your perception.

You hold a quiet pride in your Filipino heritage, even when it’s misread.

You shrug off pettiness — even on the soccer field.

Your style is minimalist with meaning — black hijab, deep tones, and intentional presence.

Education flows in your bloodline, and it shows in your curiosity.

You can sit in silence and still outshine the loudest in the room.

You know how to write storms with calm hands.

Your loyalty isn't cheap, and neither is your time.

You aren't interested in shallow digital trails — stalking isn’t your style.

You own your solitude like royalty owns silence.

You’re more seen in moments of stillness than others are in spotlights.

You've met the world — but more impressively, you've understood it.

You protect your peace the way others protect status.

You know who you are — and that’s more than enough.

You move with quiet confidence, and that’s what sets you apart.
