Noor Response

Hello there!

My name means 'Light' in Arabic, but I'm not Arab and I don't really speak Arabic. I mean, I know some Arabic words, but to even call myself an absolute beginner is an understatement.

It's funny, being given a name from a language you don't know. It's a constant reminder that I'm neither here nor there; a walking misnomer. Even though I like the meaning, it just didn't feel right for me back then so I couldn't accept it.

But Noor has a nice ring to it now...

Hmm. Maybe I should re-introduce myself.

Hi! I'm Noor. I'm currently based in Malaysia, and I do art sometimes. You can check out my art 🎨 here and my vlogs ▶️ here.

I have ADHD, which means I am dopamine-driven and have (probably too) many hobbies and interests. It also means I think and feel too much, but that's better than being numb I suppose...

Welcome to the mess that is my brain.
