Huda enjoys writing about fashion, friends and family. Huda, who recently relocated to Jeddah, UAE, from Pune, with her family, continues to be in touch with her friends in Pune through her blog. The contents of Huda's blog reflect a journal touch, as her post topics include Glints in the life of a not-so-average teenager, On Independence day, Talking about religion, Being a girl.
Age no bar
Huda feels age is not a barrier for blogging, as she recently helped her nine-year-old sister Hanifa create her own blog. "It is childish, but it's quite rare," she said. Hanifa in her blog littlehanu7.blogspot.com talks about her best friend, her sister and herself.
Teachers say
Shaila Surkund from Rewachand Bhojwani Academy at Camp said, "Most of them spend a lot of time on their computers and rarely take part in physical activities. But it is alright, as they talk about different things and know more than us."
Another teacher said, "It's a release mechanism, as they discuss about things that affects them."
