My First Love
Disclaimer: This is a very random post and not sponsored. 😛 The year was 2011. My family and I were travelling through Egypt. Our tour stopped at a local bazaar for shopping.

May 2022 Life Update: Trying Out New Hobbies & Skills
After spending April in purgatory, I decided to get my life going again and pick up some new hobbies and skills this month. My way of working around my anxious phases has been to just be lazy and watch re-runs of favourite shows. But this time I want to try keeping myself extremely busy and…

A Love Letter To My Body
Dear Body, I am sorry that it has taken me this long to write this letter to you. I know you’ve been waiting a long while – eagerly at first, patiently after, and later with waning hope. It has been a bumpy journey for us. I wish it was a classic love story – girl…
How To Deal With Criticism?
Another week is here and as much as I want to be motivated I am still reeling from how short that weekend was. This post is inspired by something I read recently in fellow blogger Ella’s post that got me thinking. She shared the following quote in her post – “The trouble with most of us is that we…

Have you ever gotten so wrapped up in a book (or show) that when it ends you feel this sudden emptiness.. Feeling unsure of how to go back to normal life? That happened with me this month (after a really long time)! I dedicated this month to reading books from my current two favourite genres…
