Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog. This post is basically just going to be me talking about how my month went (in the ‘ramblings’ part) and all the things that I have been loving this month (in the ‘recommendations’ part). This is actually my second monthly reflection- I did one last month so, if you’re interested, click here . I’m trying to make these posts really relaxed and casual so, if you like the more chatty posts, this post is for you. Enjoy! Ramblings So, this was the last month of summer and I’m not too sure how I feel about it. I’m starting school online this Tuesday and, honestly, I feel prepared enough. This summer was a weird one for obvious reasons so I, as well as all of my friends, didn’t feel as if we had one. Usually there is a definitive break between the school years because of the summer holidays but we didn’t really have that this year. It just feels like one year is blending into another. But, I’ve had plenty of time to get my things together for back to scho...

Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog and happy August! At the end of every month, I want to start doing monthly reflections. I'll be splitting the post up in 2: the 'rambling' part which is where I talk briefly about how my month went and what I did and the 'recommendation' part which is where I talk about everything I've been loving this month (books, music, products etc.). Hopefully, you'll be able to see what I mean as we go along. Enjoy! Ramblings While July was still very quiet, it was a lot more eventful than June was. My birthday was this month and I turned 15- I wrote a post about my goals for this year so, if you're interested, click here .  For obvious reasons, we didn't have anything planned for the day. I think I just watched a bunch of movies with my family, FaceTimed my friends and family back home and ate a lot of food. But I did get a new phone for my birthday which I'm still so excited about and I'll be talking more about it ...

Hello everybody! Welcome back to my blog. Happy February! Honestly, it feels like January took forever to end. Usually time flies by, especially in such eventful months, but January took a long time for some reason.  We all know the worldwide things that happened in January. There were earthquakes, fires, an idol passed away and there was even a potential war. Not the best start to the year for all of us in my opinion! But there were also a lot if personal highlights for me- which I will be reflecting on in this post.  This month I...  Celebrated New Years with my family and friends. My family came over from New York and London and we spent the Christmas and New Year holidays together. Also, my really close friends came here too.  Got my mid year exam results back.  I'm in the British system and am in Year 10- the first year of my GCSEs. So these exams were technically the first exams I've ever sat as a GCSE student- and Alhamdulillah th...
