My favorite embarrassing moment to recall.

I’m sure we've all had moments we’re too embarrassed to talk about.
Although this particular moment isn't the most embarrassing one I’ve had, it definitely adds to the list!

So this happened back in grade 9 in the month of December and I know it was December because of the chilly weather and heavy rainfall. It was during lunch break when my friends and I were enjoying our short walk to the medical room because one of my friends wasn’t feeling too well. Little did I know that short walk would land me in the medical room as well!

As I previously mentioned it was a rainy day which meant the ground was pretty slippery and my 13-year-old self thought it would be ”fun” to jump around a bit. Of course, my friend had to take advantage of my vulnerable state and pushed me causing me to lose balance and fall directly on my elbow which to be honest is a weird yet amusing way to fall...right? Did I mention it was lunchtime? Meaning all the teachers, juniors and seniors were walking around!

As you’d expect, I caught pretty much everyone’s attention and no one bothered to hold back their laughter...or help me up...or even ask me if I’m okay! So I did what I thought would make things less awkward and joined in on the laughter while silently hissing at the unbearable pain. It felt like my arm had completely come off! Meanwhile, my friends couldn’t stop laughing but eventually walked me to the medical room.

I spent the remaining of that day avoiding the use of my right arm which was a good excuse to skip on a few classes so maybe this experience wasn’t that horrible? The funny part is I didn't walk on wet grounds with my friends for a solid 2 months after that!

Even though it was an embarrassing moment I can't help but laugh at how I still remember every part of it! Feels like it happened just yesterday.

Getting to know me!✨

Hey, this is my very first blog post and the last time I felt this much pressure was probably during my Alevel board exams! So to begin with I would love to introduce myself, I'm a regular 17year old who wants to stay anonymous for the time being. I'm in my last year of Alevels so that means alot of big changes are coming my way! The thought of graduating actually feels unreal. I still remember the time I used to look at all the seniors graduating and think to myself "it's probably gonna take ages to get there and it looks like so much work" but now here I am graduating in just a few months! Time flies when you're busy worrying about why time isn't flying fast enough haha! I also love being sorrounded by nature! I can't begin to tell you how many times I've stopped the most important work I'm doing just to stare at fluffy clouds and pretty sunsets! I feel nature really connects humans to the beautiful big world we live in and sets ...

The right time.

Back in September, I met my neighbors for the first time, and instantly felt a connection with them! I remember it was a warm Wednesday afternoon when a few ladies from my neighborhood came over at our place for tea. I had school that morning and still remember how I wasn't too thrilled about meeting them because of the crazy amount of schoolwork I had to complete. Also, the fact that I was sleep deprived didn't help either. However, I'm glad my neighbors came over because I met 2 girls who're around my age and let's just say we became good friends by the end of the gathering. That was the beginning of our most regular and spontaneous hangouts. The point of this short story is that good things happen when we least expect it but certainly need the most. We might think that the situation we're facing isn't for the better or maybe isn't happening at the right time but in reality, everything that happens to us happens for a reason and the timi...

A "not so inspiring" blog post!

So I've had some trouble thinking of topics to blog about and I thought why not talk about exactly that. When I first started writing, I had this idea in my head that the posts I write should always have an aim and should always be up to the level but as the days passed I realized it's not always going to be that way. Blogging shouldn't always have to be focused on talking about topics that need to be heard by the majority. Honestly, sometimes it can be as simple as "How my day was" or " How I completed a task that I didn't feel like completing". In my opinion, blogging is basically journalling that's open to the public. Don't you think? We express our emotions by simply talking about them and receive feedback that usually goes something like "I can totally relate to this" which is what motivates me to continue writing! There's something therapeutic about writing, even if it's the most random of topics. I never ...
