Best film: Interstellar
Mona said Interstellar is the best film she has ever seen. She loves the way it makes people think deeply about life, space, and time. She also praised the soundtrack and direction, calling it a timeless piece of art.
Worst film: The Shape of Water
The movie that disappointed her most was The Shape of Water. Despite its high ratings and awards, she found the story and dialogue weak. She said the film didn’t interest her enough to watch it again.
Best accessory for a black dress
Silver or diamond jewelry is Mona’s go-to pick. She believes it brings elegance while allowing the dress to stay in the spotlight.
Worst accessory for a black dress
Mona said a red scarf or a polka-dotted black-and-white one doesn’t work well with a black dress. She finds it lacking in elegance.
Best fashion trend of 2025
Mona is a fan of the creamy vanilla-yellow color that is trending this year. She said it’s bright, fresh, and a great choice for any wardrobe.
Worst fashion trend of 2025
She isn’t a fan of super-miniskirts. She thinks they don’t flatter most body types and prefers other styles that are more comfortable and stylish.
Best advice ever received
Mona shared advice from her therapist that guides her daily life. She believes whatever you send out to the world, good or bad, will come back to you.
Worst advice ever received
For her, any advice that she didn’t ask for is bad advice. She prefers to ask for help when she needs it and avoids unsolicited opinions.
Best book: You Can Heal Your Life
Mona’s favorite book is You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay. She said it changed how she sees herself and the world. The book helped her deal with past pain and focus on a better future.
Worst book: Undisclosed title
Although there are many books she didn’t enjoy, Mona chose not to name her least favorite one. She mentioned that it’s a well-known book, popular worldwide, but it just didn’t speak to her.
Best way to feel better
Mona believes exercise is the best way to lift your mood. Even when she feels down or tired, moving her body helps her feel good for the rest of the day.
Worst thing to do when feeling good
She warns against thinking about painful memories or toxic people when you’re in a good mood. It can ruin the day and take away your peace of mind.
Best holiday destination
For Mona, the Maldives is the perfect escape. She loves the peace, privacy, and beauty of the islands and often chooses it for a break from busy life.
Worst holiday destination

Best subject in school
Biology was her top subject. She enjoyed it so much that she didn’t need to study for exams and always scored full marks.
Worst subject in school
Math was the subject she liked the least. Mona said she has always preferred letters over numbers and struggled with math during her school years.
Best way to stay productive
To have a productive day, Mona recommends sleeping early, waking up early, going to the gym, having breakfast, and doing key tasks in the morning.
