Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai may be inspiring young women around the world to fight for their right to learn, but like any other teenager she also worries about the most mundane of things.
While others hold her in esteem for winning the prestigious award, Yousafzai, who is currently living and studying in the UK, felt more proud of her grades than anything else. Apparently, so did her proud father, Ziauddin "Zia" Yousafzai.
When she was 14 years old, she survived an assassination attempt by the Taliban because of her advocacy for girls' education. Her family then moved her to the UK where she continued to fight for her life and later, continued her mission to help educate and enlighten girls in oppressed areas.
For her 18th birthday, the teenager helped create a school for Syrian refugee girls in Lebanon.
As expected, she was the perfect example for her advocacy and she did so with flying colors. Likewise, her father couldn't help but tweet about her daughter's academic achievement.
"There have been great moments in my life, including the Nobel Peace Prize, the speech at the U.N.," she told USA Today. "But in terms of achievements, getting my (General Certificate of Secondary Education) results and listening to my teachers saying 'A's and A stars' - it was the most beautiful and the happiest moment."
With these outstanding reports, she's looking to Stanford or Oxford for her higher education.
Great grades and the Nobel Peace Prize aside, Malala Yousafzai reportedly spends her free time like her peers - watching movies, eating and going out with friends and even talking about boys.
"I don't know!" she exclaimed when asked about marriage and boyfriends. "You don't know, you never plan. And I'm in a girls' school! So I haven't met a boyfriend yet."
The teen activist also revealed that she loves watching animated films like "Frozen" and "Inside Out" in her downtime.
She was fortunate enough to experience a normal girl's life thanks to her father who never "clipped [her] wings." Now, she's making her father proud by helping other women get a chance at experiencing a life that's free from oppression.
