I thought the blog was well overdue a life update/ catch up post. I said I was back and then decided to disappear again. I'm really sorry but sometimes I think I should just pass the need to apologize as blogging is not my main job or something. But hey! I miss writing. A lot. Regardless, I might give you guys an update on my life.
Goodbye semester 4! You'll not be missed
I survived another semester in school, guys! I think I should give myself a pat on the back. I have been through a lot. A lot. It was tough. I lost a bunch of weight, I lost a lot of money too and I lost quite a few people that were once my everything and my go-to. But hey, it's not worth talking about. Let's move on. I did well, or so I thought. Hopefully, everything will be just fine and bismillah for the final year of uni! I'm ready.
I have a part-time job
Alhamdulillah, I wasn't expecting anything because I hate the thought of expecting, expectations, etc. It gives me anxiety. But turns out, I have a part-time job. Since I have oodles of free time now, I say why not?
Focusing more on my skincare
My skin is acting up, again. I give up. I give up on makeup, I give up putting a bunch of makeup on my face! Now, skincare is #1. Well, it's been #1 but I guess now it's beyond #1. Maybe you guys can suggest me great products to combat the acne and scars on my face?
My favorite month is here!
Okay, who else loves that particular month just because they were born in that month? I know I do. It's my favorite month because I was born on November 23rd. I get excited just because I'm so used to that feeling. Come to think of it, the older you get, the less excited you feel for your birthday. Or is it just me? Maybe it's just me. Lol. The thought of getting older, more commitment, more challenges, and obstacles. Ahh, it gives me chills! I'll be alright, right?
Minimalize things and save up
You know what, it's okay to say "no" every once in a while to every "hey, let's buy new makeup today!" or "let's go hang out to that hipster cafe we went to the other day!" or "let's buy new clothes, there's a sale at bla bla bla."
For almost three years staying at a place that I certainly don't call home, I have learned so many things. I don't know how to put this into words. I just hope you get what I mean. I'm trying to minimalize everything, from what I wear to what I use on a daily basis. I just use what I have and try not to buy anything unless it's necessary. I have come to believe that minimalizing things could lead to huge savings. I could be wrong but I can see the teeny-tiny result already. So, learn to say "no".
I hope everyone is enjoying their November so far! <3
