We have to make a lot of decisions during the course of our lives. During the course of our day to day even- small decisions usually. Some of the decisions we need to make seem pretty obvious and don’t need much thought to make the correct choice or just aren’t too important. “Shall I have … More Crossroads…
The 10 year challenge… Of course that craze is dead and gone but it got me thinking about how far I’ve come in the past 10 years. To say I’ve made significant changes is an understatement. I remember when I was 20. I had to take a year out of university because I failed my … More Ten Year Challenge…
I’m sitting here in my family home after spending a great week here with everyone- my siblings, my parents, my baby niece <3. Catching up with my friends as well… Looking back on the year makes me so grateful. Overall 2017 has been truly amazing. I started the year off graduating with a masters in … More Thanks for the memories 2017…
Wow…time is going a lot quicker than I thought. It’s been 4 weeks really since I wrote anything for my blog. I didn’t think it’d been that long. I thought only a couple of weeks had gone by. I guess that’s what happens when you’re busy busy. Good busy. Time is just flying by. These … More Checking in…
I don’t even know where to begin… I think it’s been a couple of weeks since my last post. It feels like a lot longer because so much has happened. So much to be happy about and so much to thank God for. Firstly, there was a lot of catching up to do with some … More It’s been a while…
The main order of business this week seemed to be the gym…and Nandos. I haven’t found much to do in terms of activities where I am, although I think the season of festivals is coming up here. They have all sorts. Science Festival š¬ (which I actually think I’d really enjoy), Cricket Festival š (not … More Moving forward…
Last week I was all over the place…trying to figure out what my life in Cheltenham is and what I can find to help me feel like me again. I finally joined the gym again after 5 weeks. It has felt like a lot longer but it couldn’t be helped due to Ramadan and the … More Feeling myself…
Happy. Alone. Proud. Fatigued. Eager. Lost. Loved. Ashamed. Encouraged. Embarrassed. With everything starting to settle after a couple of busy months, the feelings I have had this week are bittersweet. I’m happy I took a new job as it is a challenge, but I have felt so alone outside of work. I’m proud that I’m … More When the dust settles…
Today is Eid ul-Fitr. The Islamic celebration that marks the end of the blessed month of Ramadan. For me, this past month hasn’t felt much like Ramadan. Possibly because a lot of changes have happened in my life during the past 30 days, so everything has just flown by. I feel like I haven’t done … More Eid ul-FitrĀ
I couldn’t have asked for a better couple of weeks, albeit very busy and tiring… My first week at work was really good…better than I thought it would be. I’m in a young department that is so sociable and friendly, with people I actually feel comfortable talking to. It’s something I haven’t experienced during the … More Blessings…
This week was the start of a new chapter in my life… I start my new job tomorrow so the past week has been spent preparing for that. I made the move on Friday and spent the whole 3 hour drive down feeling quite anxious about what lay ahead of me. I don’t like uncertainty … More Changes and challenges…
